Silica Hotel

Grindavik, Iceland
$600-850 / ніч

Забронюйте це, якщо You want the Blue Lagoon experience without the Disneyland-level crowds and are willing to pay a premium for silence.

Чому люди це люблять

  • Exclusive access to the private Silica Lagoon (far hotter and quieter than the public one)
  • Floor-to-ceiling views of moss-covered lava fields from every room
  • Free premium admission to the main Blue Lagoon is included (a $100+ value)

Короткий огляд: It’s a gloriously quiet, overpriced sleep-clinic in a lava field that feels like a moon base—just don't expect a full restaurant on-site.

Переглянуто @Sandymakessense: I stayed at the Silica Hotel and it felt like a private sanctuary. The lava views from bed were insane, and the private lagoon meant I could float for hours in total silence. It's the ultimate way to do the Blue Lagoon.

The hype

Travelers universally adore the private lagoon and the 'dead silent' rooms, often calling it the highlight of their Iceland trip.

Reality check

Guests are consistently shocked that a hotel at this price point serves 'bistro snacks' instead of a proper dinner, forcing a shuttle ride for a real meal.

  • You hate crowds and want a 'private' Blue Lagoon experience
  • You are doing a stopover and want to decompress immediately after landing
  • You love minimalist Nordic design that frames the landscape

Чистота та обслуговування

9.7
  • Housekeeping: Impeccable. Reviews consistently praise the spotless condition of rooms despite the volcanic dust outside.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Walk-in showers are pristine; no mold or grout issues reported.
  • Maintenance: Excellent condition. The property feels new and well-cared for.
  • Linens & towels: High quality, fluffy, and plentiful. Robes are standard issue but clean.
  • Odors & scents: Slight sulfur smell from the geothermal water (unavoidable), but rooms smell fresh and neutral.

Перед бронюванням

Корисно знати

  • Book your dinner reservations at Lava or Moss weeks in advance; they sell out.
  • The hotel shuttle runs frequently to the Blue Lagoon/Retreat, but walking takes only 10-15 minutes on a marked path.
  • Breakfast is included and is excellent, but lunch/dinner options on-site are limited to cold sandwiches/soup.

Що взяти з собою

  • Conditioner (lots of it): The silica water will turn your hair to straw without it.
  • Slip-on shoes/slides: For walking between your room and the private lagoon.
  • Waterproof phone case: If you want photos in the lagoon without risking your device.

Джин номерів

Найкращі вибори

  • Lava Deluxe: The 'standard' room, but often preferred for its unobstructed views of the mossy lava fields.
  • Mountain Deluxe: Offers views toward the volcanic horizon; good if you want a wider perspective.

Номери, яких варто уникати

  • Silica Deluxe (if you have small kids): The direct water access is a safety hazard and you can't swim in it anyway.

Джин для запиту номерів – копіюй та вставляй

“Request a room at the far end of the corridor for maximum privacy and a view facing away from the walkway lights.”

ЧаПи та скриті поради

Все, що вам дійсно потрібно знати перед бронюванням.

Is the hotel safe from volcanoes?

Yes, currently open. The area has protective barriers, but always check 'Safetravel.is' before driving as roads can close on short notice.

Can I swim in the water right outside my room?

No. The water bordering Silica Deluxe rooms is for aesthetics only. You must use the designated Silica Lagoon.

Is admission to the Blue Lagoon included?

Yes, 'Premium' admission (towel, robe, drink, mask) is included for every night of your stay.

How do I get there from the airport?

It's a 20-minute drive. Taxis are expensive ($150+). Destination Blue Lagoon buses are the most common budget option.

Is there a gym?

Yes, a small fitness center is available for guests.

Can I see the Northern Lights from here?

Yes, the location is dark enough. The hotel offers a 'Northern Lights Wake-Up Call' service.

Поради знавців

5 речей, які варто знати перед вашим виїздом

  • 💡The smell of sulfur (rotten eggs) is strong in the area; you get used to it, but it hits you first thing.

  • 💡The 'Bistro' menu is basically just soup and pre-made sandwiches—do not plan a romantic dinner here.

  • 💡The walk to the main Blue Lagoon can be freezing and windy; take the shuttle if it's storming.

  • 💡You get a robe and slippers, but the slippers are flimsy—bring your own slides for comfort.

  • 💡The shower pressure is legendary—some of the best in Iceland.
