Classic Austria wellness hideaway in scenic Styria

• Scenic Styria stay: A relaxing sojourn awaits you at the Schlössl Hotel Kindl, a grand hotel in the historic spa town of Bad Gleichenberg. Surrounded by rolling hills and lush forest, this family-run base is the perfect place to reconnect with nature and experience wellness on another level. Spend hours lounging in the gardens, or float your worries away in one of the two outdoor pools as you soak up the scenery and fresh air.

• Spa haven: In addition to the indoor-outdoor pool and infinity pool, there’s even more relaxation to be enjoyed at the hotel’s spa. From the herb-infused steams of the organic sanarium to the 100% humidity of the brine steam bath, you can reap the health benefits of eight different saunas. Outside you’ll find two heated whirlpools where you can unwind amidst the scenic surrounds. To really indulge, a menu of soothing massages and top-notch treatments is on offer, perfect for a bit of extra pampering.

• Regional cuisine: Whether it’s the rich breakfast buffet, a warming soup at lunchtime or the six-course dinner menu - at the Schlössl Hotel Kindl, top-quality regional produce is the star of the show. Start your morning with crispy bread topped with homemade spreads and jams, freshly-prepared egg dishes, yoghurt and juice, and look forward to creative menus prepared with care each evening.
