Wild in the city
The latest design concept is a tongue-in-cheek reversal on the idea of the wildlife safari that explores what happens when the animals decide to visit us humans in our natural environment for a change.
Once a year the entire bar is completely transformed with a new design theme by a team of skilled ice designers and sculptors, using some 40 tonnes of natural ice from Torne River in northern Sweden.
Taking inspiration from the Arctic Circle to the African Savannah, the Great Barrier Reef to the Great British Countryside, Icehotel’s creative team have designed a bar full of icy animal sculptures exploring iconic London locations including a Zebra on the Abbey Road crossing, Penguins in phone boxes and an Octopus scaling Tower Bridge.
