Those who are looking for a new and exciting way to experience the beauty of winter will love visiting North America’s only ice hotel. Every winter, the Hotel de Glace is rebuilt from scratch with snow and ice to create a hotel with 36 rooms and suites, making it a unique architectural experience each year. A unique setting for weddings or special events, it covers 30,000 square feet and features outdoor spas and saunas, a chapel, and the Ice Bar with cocktails served in frosty ice glasses.
Located just 30 minutes from Quebec City on the shores of Lake Saint Joseph in the Duchesnay Touristique Station, the rooms at the Hotel de Glace offer the coziness of an igloo with thick snow walls and maintain a temperature between -3°C and -5°C. The hotel recommends a maximum one-night stay and guides will provide you with a helpful orientation before spending your first night in an ice hotel. Visitors can make the most of winter with the many activities offered at the Duchesnay Touristique Station, including snowshoeing, ice skating and cross-country skiing. There is also a 4 star restaurant at the nearby Auberge Duchesnay. |
