Kaupinnen[edit]

Kaupinnen Sweden also boasts an ice sculpture. The site has "very few or no other articles that link to this one", so I thought I would suggest an addition to the article. Brian Pearson 16:17, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Chronological ordering of the hotels[edit]

I do think that the ice hotels should be ordered chronologically, which would be something like: 1) Sweden 2) Canada 3) Norway (with the Alta Igloo hotel first) 4) Romania 5) Finland (which is actually a snow hotel) // 62.119.40.134 (talk) 14:14, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The hotel is trully amazing!!!

Proliferation[edit]

Doing an Internet search yields more ice hotels than are mentioned in the article. With proliferation, I can see where your article will have to evolve into the ice hotel as a general concept with a discussion of building methods, architecture design, how they function, etc. Specific noteworthy hotels may spin have to off into their own article, like the one for Quebec's Hôtel de Glace.
