With Disney's hit animation "Frozen" icing up the competition at the box office, a new Frozen-inspired guest suite at Quebec City's famed Hotel de Glace has been revealed.
From now until to March 23, hotel guests will be able to have an opportunity to experience this ephemeral work of art, which has been entirely sculpted in ice and snow. The collaboration between Disney Animation Studios and the Hotel de Glace will also include a "Frozen Activity Cave" with the "Frozen Suite" modeled after the film's heroines and sisters Anna and Elsa's bedrooms. The room was built in conjunction with the film's art director, Michael Giaimo.
Along with the "Frozen" ice suite, Hotel guests can expect ice sculpting, guided tours, an isolating sleeping bag for snuggling atop the room's icy bed base, and average temperatures ranging from -13 to 41 degrees (Fahrenheit). The price to stay in the "Frozen" suite is $625 for two adults and two children during the week, $775 on Fridays and Sundays, and $850 on Saturdays.
Located about 10 minutes from downtown Quebec City, the Hotel de Glace attracts millions of visitors from around the world with its huge snow vaults and crystalline ice sculptures and Winter-inspired décor.
Meanwhile, "Frozen" has managed to freeze the competition since opening in theaters on Thanksgiving and has recently been crowned Disney's second highest-grossing original animated movie of all time, with an estimated $347 million in domestic sales and $462 million worldwide.
Directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, "Frozen" tells the story of Anna (voiced by actress Kristen Bell) and Elsa (voice of Idrina Menzel) and their quest to save their kingdom of Arendelle from eternal winter to bring back summer while encountering Everest-like conditions and mystical trolls.
"Frozen" will be available on Digital HD & 3D February 25 and Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD & On-Demand March 18 - featuring never-before-seen bonus extras.
