Why choose a polycarbonate igloo for your restaurant's winter terrace cover?

🧊 Winter terrace = more revenue – but only if it's guest-friendly

For many hospitality businesses, winter means the off-season, especially if there's no covered, heated terrace. Guests don't want to sit under draughty tarpaulins or shiver between parasols. That's where the polycarbonate igloo comes in: a transparent, heated, premium winter terrace cover.

🌐 What is a polycarbonate igloo?

The polycarbonate domes developed by igloo.hu are:

  • weatherproof, UV-resistant and snow-resistant structures,
  • transparent, letting in natural light by day and creating a cosy glow when lit up in the evening,
  • modular, so they can be tailored to anyone, from a small café to a large restaurant,
  • heatable, so your guests can sit down to dinner in comfort even in the coldest month.

🎯 Who is it for?

  • Restaurants that don't want to lose revenue in the cold months
  • Hospitality businesses that want bookings outside the season too
  • Hotels that want to create a romantic ‘winter garden’
  • Patisseries and cafés that want to offer an experience, not just somewhere to warm up

💡 Advantages over tarpaulins and marquees

  • Solid, stable structure
  • Enclosed, well-insulated space
  • Eye-catching and Instagram-ready
  • Can be used for several seasons

📍 Real-life examples

In winter 2023, several restaurants in central Budapest chose igloo.hu's domes. Business didn't drop – in fact, most venues promoted the guest experience: ‘a hot drink in a warm igloo, by candlelight’.

🎥 Show it off – guests love it!

Igloos are photogenic, so your guests will share their own experience too. That's organic marketing = more guests, more table bookings.
