Just like all of the art suites and other areas of the hotel, the Experience Room is made entirely of ice and snow and is open to visitors both summer and winter.

In the Experience Room, visitors follow Icehotel's history through works created by artists Marjolein Vonk (the Netherlands) and Maurizio Perron (Italy), both long-time collaborators with Icehotel.

Among other things, guests will be guided through Icehotel's 30-year history along a time line, view selected pieces of art that have been preserved from previous years and get to know Icehotel's founder, Yngve Bergqvist, who appears in a personal film portrait. All in sub-zero temperatures and all in snow and ice.

The exciting history of Icehotel started with one man's vision 30 years ago. We wish to share it in a new way whereby the guests, themselves, can decide the pace at which they take in the experience and enjoy a journey through time in ice and snow.
