Panorama Glass Lodges, Golden Circle

Standard
All-glass self-service lodges with outdoor hot tubs, saunas, and panoramic views straight from bed

Overview

Immerse yourself completely in Iceland's otherworldly landscape with a stay in Panorama Glass Lodges, about two hours away from Reykjavík. These remote self-service luxury lodges are just over 20 minutes from the small town of Hella, where you'll find supplies, a few restaurants, and the mysterious ancient artificial Caves of Hella. The lodges overlook the Hekla Volcano, which you can visit with an hour's drive if you want to get up close and personal with one of the country's most famous volcanoes. Reach sites on the Golden Circle like Geysir and Gullfoss in about 1.5 hours or less.

Sabrina and Andreas Dedler opened these four remote lodges in 2017, which were originally meant to be a romantic escape for couples. While the accommodations are open to anyone, all sleep up to two on a large king bed, so they're ideal for couples or friends. Built from glass, steel, and wood and featuring customized furniture, the lodges put you in direct, awe-inspiring contact with nature. Watch the northern lights from your bed under a glass ceiling or enjoy the midnight sun during the summer. Don't worry about the lack of curtains either; the hotel provides sleeping masks for guests during the summer.

These lodges are self-service, so there's no reception, common facilities, or staff on-site here, making this hotel ideal for adventurers or those seeking privacy. Each lodge includes a fully equipped kitchen with basic pantry items like pasta, rice, and condiments. The cabins also all have private outdoor Jacuzzis and glass-built saunas, which are excellent spots to cozy up and take in the northern lights and Arctic tundra.
