| New hotel and Lava Spa to be unveiled in Iceland next month |

The Ion Hotel is set to open on the edge of UNESCO-listed Thingvellir National Park in south west Iceland in February.
Situated in the slopes of Mount Hengill, the hotel will feature 46 guestrooms as well as a Lava Spa.
The spa will house an outdoor hot tub, saunas and a silent relaxation room.
Treatments at the spa will include healing and relaxation massages, full body treatments as well as a range of facials. The treatments will focus on healing, calming and purifying the body.
Designed by Santa Monica architects Minarc, the hotel is supported by high-seated pillars to give the impression that the building is floating on air.
The Silfra restaurant will be available serving new Nordic cuisine, while the Northern Lights bar will offer guests dynamic views of the night sky.
The hotel will incorporate sustainable practices and nearby hot springs will be used for geothermal heating. Natural materials such as Driftwood will also be used extensively in furniture throughout the hotel.
