Baðhúsið

Baðhúsið is a ladies-only health spa, opened in 1994 by founder Linda Pétursdóttir, a former Miss Iceland and Miss World. Linda got the idea for Baðhúsið when traveling the world as the reigning Miss World. She envisioned a nurturing and supportive environment where women exclusively could come and rejuvenate their body, mind and soul in a peaceful atmosphere - a place where they could come to nurture their well-being with help and guidance from trained professionals, or simply take some time off and enjoy the company’s relaxation programs.

It was to be a place to get away from the daily grind, whether it be by way of a soothing scented oil massage, a luxurious facial treatment or by allowing all of the day’s stress to melt away in a quiet, hot Jacuzzi. The surroundings would be both beautiful and feminine, with women in white robes enjoying massages, beauty treatments, the steam room or the so-called “rest-nest” where they are surrounded by beautiful plants, candle light, soothing music, benches for resting tired bones and magazines to browse through between treatments.

Today, Baðhúsið is in its 9th year of operation and serves well over a thousand women per day at Brautarholt 20, where they can enjoy all the services Linda originally envisioned, and more. Baðhúsið is and will always be a health spa for ladies only.
