Arctic Bath

Swedish Lapland, Sweden

Arctic Bath

Jump to:

A luxe spa-hotel with rooms floating on the frozen Lule River, Arctic Bath offers a Scandinavian-style retreat inside the Arctic Circle. In the heart of Swedish Lapland, it combines an arresting design, indulgent spa treatments and an exceptional location that’s ideal for exploring the region and enjoying both the northern lights and the midnight sun.

The main lodge is a nest-like structure that wraps around a hole in the ice, where you can take Nordic cold baths in the frigid water. Inside the building, you’ll find multiple saunas and treatment rooms, as well as the lounge bar and restaurant. You can opt to stay in one of the floating cabins on the river or the larger stilted suites on land.

Throughout, you’ll find soothing Scandinavian minimalism in the form of light pine and clean, sparse lines, softened with thick wool blankets, creative lighting and underfloor heating. The highlight, though, is the sweeping view through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The gourmet restaurant offers breakfast and a five-course dinner every day, with a focus on Sámi dishes prepared using local ingredients. The hotel also offers activities that help you explore the region, from forest baths to moose safaris to nature photography workshops.

OUR OPINION:

We love the singular concept of Arctic Bath 鈥� an opulent spa that also offers a large selection of activities for immersing yourself in Lapland鈥檚 vast natural wilderness, summer or winter.

OUR RATING: First Class
