Prices range from around \u20ac270 per night for an aurora cabin off-season up to \u20ac800\u20131,000+ in the iconic resorts around Christmas. The best chances of seeing the aurora come with igloos in the far north, around Saariselk\u00e4 and Ivalo, and the season runs roughly from late August to April. The most popular dates sell out even half a year ahead, so book as early as you can and ideally spend 1\u20132 nights in an igloo as the highlight of your trip.<\/div>\n<!-- \/lk-tldr -->\n\n\n\n<!-- lk-navbar -->\n<div class=\"lk-navbar\" style=\"margin:0 0 28px;\"><div style=\"font-size:12px;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.06em;color:#a9885a;font-weight:700;margin-bottom:9px;\">Quick links<\/div><div style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:9px;\"><a href=\"#Srovnani_8_nejlepsich_sklenenych_iglu_v_Laponsku\" style=\"background:#c39f76;color:#fff;border:1px solid #c39f76;padding:9px 15px;border-radius:22px;font-size:14px;font-weight:700;text-decoration:none;display:inline-block;line-height:1;\">\u2b50 What to see<\/a><a href=\"#Kolik_sklenene_iglu_stoji_a_kdy_rezervovat\" style=\"background:#fff;color:#6b5a44;border:1px solid #e2d6c1;padding:9px 15px;border-radius:22px;font-size:14px;font-weight:600;text-decoration:none;display:inline-block;line-height:1;\">\u2600\ufe0f When to go<\/a><a href=\"#Okoli_Rovaniemi_iglu_nejbliz_Santovi\" style=\"background:#fff;color:#6b5a44;border:1px solid #e2d6c1;padding:9px 15px;border-radius:22px;font-size:14px;font-weight:600;text-decoration:none;display:inline-block;line-height:1;\">\ud83e\udded Around<\/a><a href=\"#Prakticke_tipy_na_zaver\" style=\"background:#fff;color:#6b5a44;border:1px solid #e2d6c1;padding:9px 15px;border-radius:22px;font-size:14px;font-weight:600;text-decoration:none;display:inline-block;line-height:1;\">\ud83d\udca1 Tips<\/a><a href=\"#Casto_kladene_otazky_o_sklenenych_iglu\" style=\"background:#fff;color:#6b5a44;border:1px solid #e2d6c1;padding:9px 15px;border-radius:22px;font-size:14px;font-weight:600;text-decoration:none;display:inline-block;line-height:1;\">\u2753 FAQ<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<!-- \/lk-navbar -->\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You&#8217;re lying warm under the duvet with nothing but glass above your head and the entire Arctic sky beyond it. When the northern lights flare up, you watch them from bed. A <strong>glass igloo in Lapland is the most romantic way to experience the region<\/strong>, and the Finnish north is its birthplace: the world&#8217;s first glass igloos were built near Saariselk\u00e4 back in the 1990s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this guide you&#8217;ll find the <strong>8 best glass igloos and aurora cabins in Finnish Lapland<\/strong>, from the legendary Kakslauttanen to the more affordable resorts near Rovaniemi. For each one I explain who it suits, what sets it apart and how much it costs, plus a clear comparison table and practical advice on when to book and what to watch out for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One honest heads-up right at the start: <strong>even a glass roof won&#8217;t guarantee you the northern lights<\/strong>. I explain how to boost your odds in the article <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/en\/northern-lights-lapland\/\">northern lights in Lapland<\/a>. Think of an igloo as a dream come true and a luxury experience that is worth it even without the aurora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a7139fd919c9&quot;}\"

The heated glass doesn&#8217;t fog up and snow slides right off it, so the view of the sky stays clear even in freezing temperatures. Inside you get normal hotel comfort: heating, a private bathroom (in most of them), and sometimes a sauna or kitchenette. Newer &#8220;aurora cabins&#8221; combine a log cabin with a glazed section of roof; they tend to be roomier and cheaper than the all-glass domes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The season runs roughly <strong>from late August to April<\/strong>, exactly through the northern lights season. Many resorts offer an <strong>aurora alarm<\/strong> that wakes you when the sky lights up, even if you happen to be asleep. And because this is the most common question: yes, <strong>it&#8217;s warm inside the igloo<\/strong>, you can sleep in just a T-shirt while it&#8217;s \u221225 \u00b0C outside. \u263a\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_a_glass_igloo_costs_and_when_to_book\"><\/span>How much a glass igloo costs and when to book<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be ready for the fact that this is the most expensive accommodation in Lapland. <strong>Aurora cabins start at around \u20ac270 per night<\/strong> off-peak, standard all-glass igloos run between \u20ac400 and \u20ac600, and the iconic resorts will ask \u20ac800 to \u20ac1,000+ per night around Christmas. It&#8217;s cheapest from September to November and again in January, and priciest from mid-December to New Year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1 Tip: <strong>one or two nights in an igloo as the highlight of the trip<\/strong> is plenty, and you can sleep far cheaper in a regular hotel for the rest of your stay.

It&#8217;s a bucket-list experience with all the trimmings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I&#8217;ll be honest: <strong>prices have shot up steeply in recent years<\/strong> (small igloos from ~\u20ac420, over \u20ac800 in peak season) and newer reviews tend to be mixed, with the fame taking a toll on the personal touch.

The cheapest rates are in September to November and in January.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1750300000002\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_I_see_the_Northern_Lights_from_a_glass_igloo\"><\/span>Will I see the Northern Lights from a glass igloo?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Only if the sky is clear and the aurora is actually active\u2014the glass itself doesn&#8217;t guarantee anything. You&#8217;ll increase your chances by choosing an igloo far in the north (Saariselk\u00e4, Ivalo), staying multiple nights, and checking the forecast. Many resorts offer an aurora alarm that will wake you during the night.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1750300000003\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Isnt_it_cold_in_a_glass_igloo\"><\/span>Isn&#8217;t it cold in a glass igloo?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. Igloos are fully heated rooms with heated glass that won&#8217;t fog up and sheds snow. Inside you have standard hotel comfort including a bathroom, while outside it can easily be \u221225 \u00b0C.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1750300000004\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_glass_igloo_is_the_best\"><\/span>Which glass igloo is the best?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>It depends on your priorities: the most famous is Kakslauttanen (but the most expensive and with rising prices), the best value for money are Northern Lights Village Saariselk\u00e4 and Aurora Village Ivalo, luxurious panorama at Levin Iglut near Levi, and the most practical location is Apukka Resort near Rovaniemi.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1750300000005\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_should_I_book_a_glass_igloo\"><\/span>When should I book a glass igloo?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>As early as possible. The most sought-after dates (Christmas, February, and March) are often sold out half a year in advance. Igloo season runs roughly from late August to April, covering the entire Northern Lights season.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1750300000006\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_one_night_in_a_glass_igloo_enough\"><\/span>Is one night in a glass igloo enough?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>For the experience yes, for the aurora it&#8217;s better to have more attempts. A proven strategy is 1 to 2 nights in an igloo as the highlight of your trip and the rest of your stay in a regular (cheaper) hotel. If you&#8217;re primarily going for the aurora, spend at least 3 nights in the north\u2014not necessarily all under glass.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1750300000007\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_is_better_a_glass_igloo_or_an_aurora_cabin\"><\/span>Which is better: a glass igloo or an aurora cabin?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>A full-glass dome is more iconic and you have a view all around, an aurora cabin (a cabin with heated glass above the bed) is more spacious, more private, and cheaper. For families and longer stays I recommend a cabin, for one exceptional night a dome.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Falling asleep under a glass roof and waiting for the northern lights from bed is a dream come true.
