LT Travel Connection<\/a> wanted to speak to the adventurous with today’s Honeymoon Friday post, and they hit the nail on the head. How does staying in a hotel made entirely of ice and snow sound? One where it’s helpful to have another, albeit more traditional, hotel suite for your luggage and showers?<\/p>\n

That’s exactly the experience you get with Qu\u00e9bec’s H\u00f4tel de Glace<\/a>. The hotel is redesigned every year and debuts in the winter. It’s open from the first week of January until the last week of March (for 2011: January 7-March 27) every year.<\/p>\n

And here’s a great deal: for $599\/person, you get several perks: a themed suite at the H\u00f4tel de Glace, a suite with a fireplace at the nearby Four Points by Sheraton Qu\u00e9bec<\/a> for luggage storage and showers, complimentary welcome drinks, a romantic dinner, after dinner chocolates, Nordic area under-the-stars hot tubs and saunas, breakfast, a welcome gift, personal valet service, and all gratuities. I’m almost out of breath just typing it all. And now, of course, on to the photos!<\/p>\n

This is the super cool Ice Bar at the hotel. The drinks are served in glasses made out of – what else? – ice.<\/p>\n

One of the themed bedrooms. The beds have ice bases but are then covered with a mattress, box springs, sheets, and an Arctic-proof sleeping bag.<\/p>\n

Okay, I’m sold! Take a tour of the hotel and get a chance to slide down the ice slide!<\/p>\n

I couldn’t resist showing you a couple of wedding portraits (via the Femtalks blog<\/a>) from the hotel. How cool would a destination wedding be at this place? They even have an ice chapel (no kidding)!<\/p>\n

I’m in total love with her hand muffs!<\/p>\n

See the hotel’s FAQ<\/a> for lots of helpful info, and thanks to LT Travel Connection for thinking outside of the box on today’s adventurous location!<\/p>\n
