The Ice Hotel was re-opened on 25 December in the Romanian ski resort Poiana Brasov. Made entirely of ice, the hotel was opened for the first time in 2006 when it had ten rooms.

The opening of four new thematically decorated rooms, adorned with sculptures and light effects creating a unique atmosphere, was planned for this winter season. Leather and fur cloaks, wool blankets, and sleeping-bags designed for use at low temperatures are available to the guests during their stay at the hotel. Guests can warm up with vodka cocktails, as well as to enjoy the meals served in ice plates.
