Bathing in geothermal pools is a ritual you can’t miss if you come to Iceland. This video shows you two very different ways to experience this very Icelandic tradition at the Silica Hotel and at the Blue lagoon, where I stayed for two nights. The Silica Hotel is built around a beautiful blue hot spring - and it’s an oasis of understated - and inspiring - Scandinavian design. But if you don't have the budget for a fancy hotel - we’ve got you covered with the next best thing - the Blue Lagoon - not quite as calm but still a very nice experience.
There are three options if you are interested in the The Blue Lagoon: the main lagoon is open to the public, then there’s the Silica Hotel that we also cover in this video, plus the Retreat Hotel - a super exclusive - and expensive - hotel that the Swank Guide thinks is the best hotel in Iceland and we take you inside our stay at the Retreat in a different video that’s linked below. [link coming in Dec 2022]
The architecture of the Silica Hotel is understated Scandinavian design that works so well in the lava fields around the hotel.
