The Coolest Hotel in the World
Read the text about the Coolest Hotel in the world and do exercises below.
The Coolest Hotel in The World
Can you imagine a hotel that is entirely made of ice? Well, it exists in Sweden, but only in winter. In spring, the hotel melts away and disappears into the river.
The Ice Hotel is situated on the shores of the Torne River in the old village of Jukkasjarvi,Sweden.
Every winter, work starts on building a new Ice Hotel, involving 40,000 tons of ice and snow. 10,000 tons of ice is taken from the Torne River, and 30,000 tons of snow is provided by Mother Nature.
The first Ice Hotel was built in 1990. It started as single room - now it has 64 ros, as well as an ice chapel, an art gallery, a cinema, a theatre and an Absolute Ice Bar. Last winter,more than 14,000 guests spent the nigh at the Ice Hotel.
Outside, the temperature is -30'C, but inside a hotel, the temperature is always around -5'C. All the furniture is made of ice, including the beds, but nobody gets cold. The beds are coverd with rindeer skins and guests are given warm clothes and special arctic sleeping bags.
In the Absolute Ice Bar, the drinks are served in glasses made of ice, so there is no need for ice cubes!
Every year the interior of the hotel is designed by different artists from all over the world. It is described by visitors as 'absolutely stunnig', 'one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen' and 'unique'.
