Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort, Finland
Seeing the northern lights in person is a bucket list destination for many people, but being able to see it from your bed brings the experience to a whole new level! At Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort in Finnish Lapland, this dream becomes reality in their famous glass igloos. These cozy, temperature-controlled domes feature glass ceilings that offer unobstructed views of the polar night sky.
By day, guests can enjoy dog sledding, reindeer safaris, and snowmobiling through the Arctic wilderness. The igloos are open from August through April, with peak aurora viewing from September to March. Outside of aura viewing times, the resort is actually open year round, featuring many other outdoor activities like panning for gold, horse / husk safaris, mountain biking and more.
The Icehotel, Sweden
For the ultimate cool sleeping experience, Sweden's iconic Icehotel in the village of Jukkasjärvi redefines what it means to chill out. Reconstructed annually from blocks of ice harvested from the nearby Torne River, this architectural marvel features rooms sculpted by different artists each season, making every visit unique.
Guests sleep on ice beds covered with reindeer hides and thermal sleeping bags, surrounded by intricate ice sculptures and artistic carvings that transform everyday rooms into galleries of frozen art. The temperature hovers around 23°F, but the experience is surprisingly comfortable—and certainly unforgettable. While the original Icehotel melts back into the river each spring, the newer Icehotel 365 section offers the frozen experience year-round thanks to solar-powered cooling technology.

Set on 12 acres of private land within a 140-acre indigenous forest, this elegant boutique hotel resembles a 1930s Scottish hunting lodge but offers a uniquely African twist. Home to a resident herd of endangered Rothschild's giraffes, the manor allows these gentle giants to visit during breakfast and afternoon tea, poking their heads through windows and doors in search of treats. The stately rooms combine colonial charm with modern comforts, but it's the extraordinary animal encounters that make sleeping here a wildlife lover's dream come true.

Each room has its own unique character and historical significance. By day, try traditional country pursuits like falconry and horseback riding; by night, retire to chambers once graced by kings, presidents, and celebrities for the ultimate royal treatment.
