A sensory awakening

Spa facilities

Reach giddy heights of relaxation in our soaring alpine sanctuary. From the soothing tranquillity of the saline grotto to the invigorating Matterhorn panoramas of our outdoor pool, you’ll feel every sense engaged.

Outdoor pool

Out of this world

Take a transcendent dip in the highest pool in Europe (8,4 × 4,2 m) and marvel at Matterhorn views as you soak. It’s heated to a cosy 35°C (95°F): a wonderful counterpoint to the fresh mountain breeze and snow-capped views.

Indoor pool

Lap it up

Take a few diligent laps or simply float back and relax as you enjoy the warm wood panelling and floor-to-ceiling windows that house our indoor pool (11,2 × 7,7 m, 1,38 m deep). Warmed to a refreshing 30°C (86°F).

Schönbiel Cave

Take the heat

Bask for a while in the healing heat of this enveloping steam bath, with 40-50°C (104-122°F) temperatures that will warm you to your core and soothe any muscular aches and pains.

Steam bath

Deep breaths

Feel your pores tingle with delight in this invigorating 45°C (113°F) steam bath. In 100% humidity, your muscles will unclench, your skin will become dewy and you’ll breathe more deeply. Walk out in a cloud of steam glowing from scalp to toe.

Whirlpool

Bubble over

Sink into a blissful maelstrom of balmy 37°C (99°F) bubbles and let the air jets pummel your muscles into submission. Invigorating and deeply relaxing.

Chriiter-Grotta

Sensory sanctum

Cocoon yourself in the sensory world of our grotto as the saline water eases your joints and your airways are soothed to the soft splash of tumbling water. In this cave-like inner sanctuary, the atmosphere is one of absolute serenity.

Organic sauna

Take it easy

Gentler than our Finnish sauna, this space maintains a steady heat of 50-60°C (122-140°F) with a moderate air humidity of 50%. Stay longer, breathe deeper, relax into it.  

Finnish sauna

An alpine ritual

Desert-dry and timber-scented, our Finnish sauna reaches soaring temperatures of 85-90°C (185-194°F) to increase circulation, ease stiffness and support absolute detox. Feel renewed, cleansed and yes, perhaps just a little bit sweaty. 

Relaxation room

And... relax

When you’ve completed a circuit of our healing spa, enjoy a quiet interlude in our dreamy relaxation room. Lounge in your robe, close your eyes and let the minutes tick past. You have all the time in the world.

Mini gym

Fit in a workout

Feeling motivated? Our compact but well-equipped gym has a carefully selected mix of cardio and strength equipment, so you can escape to our world above it all...  without losing touch with your personal goals.
