The Floating Iceberg Hotel is a one-of-a-kind hotel experience that moves with the seasons in the Arctic. The hotel is carved into a fresh iceberg, giving guests the unique opportunity to stay inside a natural wonder of the world. The interior of the hotel is designed to showcase the natural beauty of the ice, with a foyer containing a check-in desk, two bars, 40 bedrooms, a nightclub, a retail store, an elevator, chandeliers, and a long scooped ice aesthetic on walls and ceilings. The hotel features exterior decks for patrons, providing breathtaking views of the surrounding Arctic landscape. Guests can also enjoy a soak in the exterior hot tub, while taking in the icy surroundings. The hotel is powered by two large engines that orient and move it, allowing it to follow the Arctic's seasonal patterns. Access to the hotel is primarily by boat, with a carved secure dock for mooring boats. The hotel's unique location and design make it the perfect destination for adventurers and nature enthusiasts looking to explore the Arctic in a truly unique way. The project is more fantasy than reality, but its not an impossible design.
Carved in ice, the Amundsen Ice bar features detailed chandeliers, feature lighting, and carved wall panels.
