Peace & Quiet Nature Hotel is a nature hotel in Swedish Lapland where you sleep in glass rooms placed in the wilderness. The Floating Glass room rests on the Lule River, the Mountain Glass room sits among the peaks and the Flying Glass room hangs in the forest, each for a maximum of two guests. The Hanging room and Wild Nature room sleep one person each. Through the glass ceiling you watch the northern lights in winter and the midnight sun in summer, directly from your bed.
Two locations: Jokkmokk and Kiruna
The hotel operates year round and is built around the Sámi eight seasons: aurora, polar twilight, midnight sun and everything in between. The main base with most activities is in Jokkmokk, the cultural capital of the Sámi people, with the meeting point at Klockarvägen 25. Laponia, the largest unbroken natural World Heritage area in Europe, and the Ájtte Sámi and Mountain Museum are close by. The hotel also runs Kiruna Glass Rooms, glass igloos approximately 600 metres from the Icehotel in Jukkasjärvi. Guests who book nights at both destinations receive a 10 percent discount, and the hotel recommends two to three nights in Jokkmokk with departure via Luleå airport.
Food, activities and rates
The kitchen works with produce from Laponia and Sápmi: souvas, reindeer meat smoked in a traditional goahte and served with organic lingonberries, artisan cheese from the rare native cattle of Vuollerim, pine and cloudberry syrups and Sámi coffee cheese. Menus change daily with the season. Activities booked through the hotel include dog sledding, snowmobiling, ice fishing and snowshoe hikes in winter, and guided canoe trips and mountain hikes in summer. Rates start at €346 per night for the Floating Glass room.
