Icehotel expects to lose approximately 30-40 percent of sales compared to last season.

The decline is due to travel restrictions from abroad and missed conference trips.

But they do not give up and now hope that domestic private tourism will compensate for the business events to some extent.

The number of seasonal employees is also decreasing from 150 to about 60-70 people.

- We estimate that there will be about half of the visitors compared to last winter.

New for this year is that everyone who has the Instagram app can get a guided tour and see all the rooms.
