Silica Hotel at Blue Lagoon Iceland

Silica Hotel is a contemporary retreat located within the world-renowned Blue Lagoon area in Southwest Iceland. With 35 deluxe rooms, access to a private lagoon, and a fitness center, the hotel offers a relaxing stay surrounded by volcanic landscapes just minutes from the Blue Lagoon’s main spa.

Location & Nearby Attractions

Silica Hotel is located on the Reykjanes Peninsula, just a 10-minute walk from the Blue Lagoon’s main entrance and a 20-minute drive from Keflavík International Airport. Its convenient location offers easy access for travelers flying in or out of Iceland.

Guests staying at Silica Hotel enjoy complimentary premium entry to the Blue Lagoon, where they can soak in its milky-blue, mineral-rich waters, known for their skin-soothing properties.

Beyond the lagoon, the Reykjanes Peninsula is filled with geothermal and geological wonders. The Gunnuhver Hot Springs, Brimketill Lava Rock Pool, and the Bridge Between Continents, in particular, are all within a 20 to 30-minute drive.

Gunnuhver is a steaming geothermal field with bubbling mud pools, while Brimketill is a dramatic lava rock pool perched on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Meanwhile, the Bridge Between Continents is a symbolic footbridge spanning the rift between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

The capital city of Reykjavik is also within easy reach, located just 50 minutes from the Silica Hotel by car. As Iceland’s cultural and economic hub, Reykjavík offers a variety of museums, restaurants, and shops, as well as landmarks like Hallgrimskirkja Church and the Harpa Concert Hall by the waterfront.
