Unusual design
The centerpiece of Arctic Bath is this circular floating structure. Courtesy Anders Blomqvist Designs for Arctic Bath premiered back in early 2018, with its striking architecture and watery theme capturing the imagination of travelers across the world. Now the hotel -- located about an hour and 15 minutes from Luleå Airport -- is open for business, and also offers first-rate culinary offerings at the hotel restaurant. The theme of wellness is pretty high on the list of priorities for Arctic Bath, the food's got a healthy bent, with locally sourced ingredients, while the emphasis on cold bathing is to aid muscle pain. Guests brave enough to plunge into the pools will be able to enjoy an incredible spa experience. Courtesy Daniel Holmgren Activities on offer include -- unsurprisingly, perhaps -- yoga, mindfulness and meditation. There's also the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors -- think bear watching, horseback riding and courses in wildlife photography. Arctic Bath is located in pretty stunning spot in Swedish Lapland. Courtesy Anders Blomqvist During the winter months, the Northern Lights illuminate the skies above. The Arctic Bath team is also keen to bridge the gap between tourists and locals living in the neaby village of Harads, and guests will have the opportunity to learn more about the local Sámi culture by visiting a local resident at her home. The team behind the new hotel also helped bring the nearby, successful Treehotel to life. "I think TreeHotel prepared the world for Arctic Bath as the next project," said co-architect Bertil Harström of Arctic Bath back in 2018.DISCLAIMER: The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.
