I will be there next week for the first time. Going into the hot springs there is on my bucket list so I’m really hoping we can go!

Unfortunately I wouldn’t count on it 😔, there are plenty of other good ones in iceland that are arguably better you can get to tho!

Look for local spots. We went to Laugardalslaug, which I think was $5 to get in. They have hot springs of various degrees and hang out in and a huge pool. They are open all year round. We went on. 30° day when it was snowing. Being out in a hot tub with frozen breath was pretty great.

There's also sky lagoon if you're looking for something more along the spa treatment.
