Village Des Neiges / Snow Village,Montreal

This is the very first Snow Village in North America. We have heard of the Ice Hotel in Quebec City but this year, we heard and saw on TV about this SNow Village only a few days before hubby went for his business trip in Montreal.

The Chapel

The Snow Village in Montreal is the first time the concept has been tried in North America — it's also the first time such a "village" has been built just minutes from a major metropolitan area.It sits just inside the Jean Drapeau Park which has for its major attraction, the Biosphere that we visited only last summer.

The Chapel Altar Scuplture

The European versions(FInland) are in remote areas accessible by plane and they often involve an extended stay. Montreal's village, by comparison, is accessible by public transit.

Four Seasons Room,Ice Hotel

Montreal's winter wonderland village includes a 30-room ice hotel, a mix of standard rooms, suites and igloos. The hotel isn't the first of its kind; there's also an ice hotel just outside Quebec City.



The village has a collection of dome-like igloos from the outside, highlighted with blue lights on the sides and down the entrance hall.

Ice Chandelier

Replicas of local landmarks like Saint Joseph's Oratory, the Olympic Stadium and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts are still being built when we visited.

The long hallways connecting to the rooms are dotted with more red and blue lights and each room has a number that reinforces the winter theme, such as -5 and the really chilly sounding -30.

One can reserve a room for overnight or visit the place .The Snow Village is open from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. (midnight), Sunday through Wednesday, and from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m., Thursday through Saturday.
