Quebec City's Hotel of Ice



No, the room heater isn't broken. It's just that cold. Every year, the Hôtel de Glace is erected in Quebec City, Quebec out of 500,000 tons of ice and 15,000 tons of snow. It includes up to thirty-six rooms that guests can rent as well as a combination dining room and chapel.

My mom stayed here with a bunch of friends for her fortieth birthday. Everything really is made of ice - ice beds, ice fireplaces, ice bar, ice toilets...they said it was the most hellish sleepover of their lives and they joke about the experience to this day (10 years later). Apparently you can also just take a tour of the hotel and have some drinks in the bar without staying over. If you are going to have a few drinks, I don't suggest sleeping over there. :)
