# Aurora Farm Hotel

> Aurora Farm Hotel is a boutique countryside hotel at Stóru-Laugar, 650 Laugar, in Þingeyjarsveit, North Iceland — in the heart of the Diamond Circle. Its defining feature is a private geothermal hot spring, fed by water that rises naturally from the property, reserved exclusively for overnight guests (no day passes). The property was previously named "Guesthouse Stóru-Laugar" (English) and "Gistiheimili Stórulaugar" (Icelandic); it was renamed Aurora Farm Hotel in 2026. It is a separate business from Hotel Laugar, a different hotel in the same village.

Aurora Farm Hotel is a family-run farm property. It has an on-site restaurant serving Icelandic food built around produce from neighbouring farms, three bookable room types, and an outdoor geothermal spa area open year-round. It sits in one of the most active aurora regions in the Northern Hemisphere.
