About the Hotel

• The T&T ice hotel first opened in January 2009 10 miles north of Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. It is the worlds biggest and only ice hotel in Europe. In 2006, builders Tyler Horenfeldt and Tory Dick decided to build a bed out of ice and put it on display at the Swedish museum of art. At the museum, a little girl thought the ice bed was fascinating and suggested that we should expand our buisiness in ice items. Tyler and Tory listened to this idea which led to them building an ice hotel in Sweden. The T&T ice hotel is now known as one of the most popular hotels in the world, having over 100000 tourists visit in 2010. The entire hotel is made out of snow and ice. The hotel is made from over 30 000 tons of ice. The T&T ice hotel operates from December to March.
