The site
About Ice Time Travel
A small independent editorial index of hotels, sorted into four categories: art, capsule, casino and ice.
Ice Time Travel is not tied to any country, any chain, or any booking platform. It exists to describe a set of hotels clearly, and it is organised by the idea behind each building rather than by where that building happens to stand.
How entries are written
Every entry is prose. There are no star ratings, no scores, no guest reviews and no prices, because none of those could be kept honest here. Each hotel gets a few paragraphs and a short line of facts, and the facts kept are general and durable — where a building stands, roughly what it holds, what its character is — rather than details that change week to week.
What the site is not
Nothing here can be booked, and no enquiry sent to us reaches a hotel. We have no commercial relationship with any property described. For availability, rates or reservations, go to the hotel directly.
Corrections are welcome. If something here is out of date or wrong, write to us through the contact page.
