What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
360° Boutique Hotel is named for the panoramic view made possible by its hilltop setting and its wraparound glass-walled construction.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Selfoss sits fifteen minutes to the west, and Gullfoss waterfall and the Geysir geothermal fields are an easy drive away.
The rooms
Picture windows look across open pastures toward distant glaciers, and heated floors warm Moroccan wool rugs underfoot.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The spa
Two dry saunas sit beside a cold plunge pool fed by an underground mineral spring.
Hnaus Restaurant
Polished stone tables sit beside floor-to-ceiling windows, where chef Hinrik Örn Lárusson serves seasonal Icelandic dinners.
At the table
Plush armchairs tuck into windowed nooks for breakfast, and the fireside lounge serves drinks as night falls.
How it began
The founders met while living in London, returning to Iceland to build an intimate bathhouse that eventually grew into the hotel.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
