Unique spa moments for day guests in Bad Gastein

Day spa in the Alpine Swim Club at Hotel Badeschloss

With a generous 500 square metres on three floors of the Hotel Badeschloss, the Alpine Swim Club is a modern, inspiring community spot, also for day guests. The modern signature wall with tile lettering "Alpine Swim Club" sets the tone for the programme, which is implemented using wavy metal lines, wooden slats, accents in cobalt blue and a terrazzo look.

Here, where bathing culture has been cultivated since 1791 and the castle by the waterfall was once transformed into a public spa centre, the source of life is part of the DNA. The vision for the Alpine Swim Club is to be understood in the holistic context of the hotel's philosophy: refreshing spa hang-out, vital community spot and place of inspiration. Perfectly staged and yet the epitome of the most natural, universal element of life, the year-round infinity rooftop pool - combined with the boundless view of the panorama - is the heart and soul of the Alpine Swim Club. The relaxation areas with panoramic balcony and terrace allow the mind to switch off and linger in the moment. Three saunas (Finnish sauna, bio-sauna and serail bath/peeling sauna) and a cool-down area in the form of a drinking fountain, Kneipp basin and ice fountain are available to keep the heat at bay.

Your well-being is also boosted by external influences, i.e. massages, peelings, wraps and many other treatments at the Alpine Swim Club. Or with a power nap in the relaxation areas and small energy boosters from the Well-Fit Bar. The skincare ranges from The Organic Pharmacy in London ensure that the skin, the reflection of the soul, is pampered. The award-winning products contain highly effective natural substances to regenerate and repair the skin. The combination of gently flowing massage and acupressure techniques in customised facial treatments provides new freshness and energy that make the face glow.

Day spa guests can book their stay, also in combination with breakfast or dinner, by calling the hotel reception. For 39 euros per person (opening offer), you can borrow a sauna bag, slippers and a bathrobe in addition to admission. The Alpine Swim Club is open for day guests from 10:00 - 18:00. Reservations in the restaurant can be made online at www.travelcharme.com/hotels/badeschloss/gastronomie at any time.

Treatments at the spa of the Grand Hotel Straubinger

For particularly luxurious moments of well-being, external visitors can also be pampered with all the applications and treatments of the Straubinger Spa.
At the Straubing Spa, thoughts are free of time and the space for private retreat is limitless. The Well-Being philosophy is supported by a holistic understanding of the spa: four elements - a physical, mental and active component plus vitality from within - are integrated individually
or in combination in seven themed worlds (Vitalis, Relaxation, Love your Age, Massages, Beauty, Detox and Nutrition). The applications and treatments are categorised according to the theme worlds and their effects are targeted and individually tailored. They are based on traditional European medicine and centuries-old practices, supplemented by high-tech equipment and scientific research.

The "TAYTIBE" ritual treatment is a particularly luxurious experience that celebrates the beauty of ageing and represents a unique power package for health prevention. The signature treatment is reserved exclusively for the Straubinger in Austria. The treatment is a new technique consisting of acupressure in the meridians, pressure point massage and sound & silence. It stimulates the metabolism, allows the lymph to circulate effectively, balances the sense of equilibrium, activates the body's defence cells for health, provides inner peace and enables deep sleep. For SPA Manager Kirsten Schiemann, this is the key to lasting well-being, because "the treatment should always come before the symptoms."

Curated natural cosmetic products and healthy living products from Pharmos Natur are used for the treatments. The speciality of the Green Luxury line ROHINI lies in the natural composition of selected rejuvenating and medicinal plants (Sacred Plants), which trigger cell regeneration - without a drop of water, alcohol or citric acid.

Guests can book their treatment, also in combination with breakfast or dinner, online at www.travelcharme.com/hotels/straubinger/wellness. The Grand Hotel Straubinger team is also available by telephone to provide help and advice. Treatments are available between 10 am and 4 pm, subject to availability. Reservations in the restaurant can also be made online at www.travelcharme.com/hotels/straubinger/kulinarik.
