A spokeswoman of a famous hotel rebuilt every winter in northern Sweden using only ice said fire alarms will be installed this year following a request by the authorities to guarantee the safety of its guests.
"We were a little surprised at first, but the reason is that there are things that can actually catch fire, like pillows, sleeping bags or reindeer skins," hotel spokeswoman Beatrice Karlsson said.
"To us the most important concern is the safety of our clients, so we will comply," she added.
The alarms, which were already tested last winter with the local fire department, have made construction of the hotel, conceived as a work of art, even harder than before.
"The environment is humid, and ice and snow... move, so it had to be taken into account. It's been a challenge for our building team, but it made us one experience richer," Karlsson said.
The hotel will open from December 6 to April 13.
