Located in the heart of Brussels, Ice Bar Brussels is a winter-themed bar made entirely of ice, offering a fun, chilly experience.

I was surprised at how warm and comfortable I felt in my ice suite! The thermal sleeping bags and cozy layers kept me snug, and waking up surrounded by sparkling ice sculptures was pure magic.
The artistry of the hotel was incredible. Each room felt like a gallery with intricate ice carvings and breathtaking details. I spent hours admiring the craftsmanship before retreating to my cozy sleeping bag.
We stayed at the ice hotel for our anniversary, and it was the most romantic experience ever. Sharing hot chocolate in the ice lounge and cozying up in our frosty suite was absolutely magical.
