Ice Hotel

The Ice Hotel, or Hôtel de Glace, near Quebec City is the oldest ice hotel in North America and has become one of Quebec’s most distinctive seasonal landmarks. First opened in 2001 as the continent’s first and only ice hotel until 2012, it is rebuilt from scratch each winter and operates from early January into April. Made largely of snow and ice, it combines guest rooms, a grand hall, chapel, bar, and other attractions with a major tourism role. After moving among several sites, it has stood at Valcartier Vacation Village since 2017, drawing large crowds for tours, overnight stays, and events such as weddings.
