Located at the Hôtel de Glace in Quebec, Canada, this ice hotel is rebuilt each winter from ice and snow. Hidden inside is the Hôtel de Glace Restaurant, which turns this seasonal ice wonderland into a dining experience. The entire restaurant is surrounded by crystal-clear ice walls, with the space, furniture, and décor all continuing the ice-and-snow theme. It appears only in winter, seating about 52 to 60 guests per dining session.
The menu is designed by the culinary team from Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, a landmark hotel in Quebec City, and offers a three-course dinner. This experience is more than just stepping into an ice house for photos—it’s about sitting down and having an actual meal. Dressed in heavy winter gear, surrounded by translucent ice walls and sculptures, the atmosphere is already impressive enough. Visitors can also explore ice sculptures, an ice chapel, themed suites, and cocktails served in ice glasses elsewhere on the property.
