Guests can soak in new geothermal baths overlooking the highland landscape, making it a rare mix of comfort and wilderness.

For travelers not staying overnight in the area, booking admission to Laugaras Lagoon, a new geothermal spa on the Golden Circle, is an excellent day-visit alternative.
Do spa hotels in Iceland offer day passes for non-guests?
Most spa hotels in Iceland reserve their wellness facilities for overnight guests, but some larger properties, such as Hilton Reykjavik Nordica or Hotel Selfoss, do sell spa day passes that allow non-guests to access saunas, hot tubs, and relaxation areas. For those mainly interested in bathing, all the major geothermal hot spring spas in Iceland welcome day visitors and offer a wide range of pools and facilities.
What’s the difference between spa hotels and geothermal baths in Iceland?
Spa hotels in Iceland combine overnight accommodation with wellness facilities such as saunas, hot tubs, and sometimes massage or beauty treatments. They are designed for guests who want relaxation as part of their stay. Geothermal baths, like the Blue Lagoon, Sky Lagoon, or Myvatn Nature Baths, are standalone attractions that welcome day visitors and focus mainly on pools and bathing rather than overnight stays.
Can you see the northern lights from spa hotels in Iceland?
Yes, many countryside spa hotels in Iceland are ideal for watching the northern lights while relaxing in outdoor hot tubs. Popular choices include Hotel Ranga in South Iceland and Siglo Hotel in the north, both of which offer geothermal-heated pools under dark skies. The lights are most often visible between September and April, depending on weather and solar activity.
Are spa hotels in Iceland family-friendly?
Some spa hotels in Iceland welcome families, especially those with larger pool areas like Hotel Husafell, where children can use the hot tubs and swimming pools. Others focus on a quieter luxury atmosphere and set age limits for spa access. It’s always best to check each hotel’s policy in advance, as rules vary on whether children can use spa facilities.
Are there any hotels in Iceland with private hot springs?
It depends on what you mean by a “hot spring.” If you’re looking for a hotel with its own private geothermal lagoon, the only options are the two Blue Lagoon hotels - The Retreat and Silica Hotel. If you mean a private geothermal hot tub, many countryside vacation rentals and cottages in Iceland provide this. Spa hotels elsewhere typically offer shared hot tubs or pools rather than lagoons.
What are the hotels at the Blue Lagoon in Iceland?
There are two hotels located at the Blue Lagoon. The Retreat at Blue Lagoon is a luxury spa hotel offering private lagoon access, a subterranean spa, and suites overlooking the lava fields. Silica Hotel is a quieter alternative with modern rooms and its own private lagoon exclusively for guests. Travelers will also find other hotels near the Blue Lagoon, which provide convenient access without staying directly on site.
How much do spa hotels in Iceland cost?
Spa hotel prices in Iceland vary widely depending on the level of luxury, location, and season. Mid-range countryside spa hotels usually start from around 300 USD per night, while spa hotels in Reykjavik typically begin at approximately 200 USD per night. The most exclusive spa hotels in Iceland can exceed 1,500 USD per night. Prices increase during peak times such as summer and the northern lights season.
What’s the best time to stay at a spa hotel in Iceland?
The best time depends on the experience you want. Winter (October to March) is ideal if you hope to watch the northern lights from a hot tub, though snow and icy roads make travel slower. Summer (June to August) brings long days, easier driving conditions, and the midnight sun, making it perfect for combining spa stays with outdoor adventures. Spring and autumn offer fewer crowds and lower prices.
