Preidlhof

Preidlhof is an all-singing, all-dancing destination spa hotel with bells and whistles in the Italian Dolomites. Whilst some of the contemporary design may not be to everyone’s taste it’s soon overlooked once immersed in the Preidlhof experience. Suites in the main building are huge and modern with large balconies overlooking the valley of Naturns filled with apple orchards and the lush green mountainside across the river. If you’ve never slept under the stars, this is the place to do it; a bed, along with a large candle, sits on your balcony and you can decide, day by day, whether you would like it made up for that evening. It’s an experience like no other, and should you at any time feel a little cold there’s a heater on the wall to warm you up. There’s a pillow menu with a choice of eight pillows including scented and cherry pillows filled with pips that mould to your head and neck for the best night’s sleep. Open-plan bathrooms feature two basins with a large walk-in two-person shower, complete with a heated towel rail and plenty of natural shower and body products including an apricot kernel body scrub. A spa bag with towels, a backpack and a hiking belt are all provided in the suites.

If you have health goals in mind then pick a programme that suits you, or the highly qualified team at Preidlhof can make one bespoke to you, depending on what you want to achieve; alternatively, book a suite and add on treatments and experiences once you’ve arrived. Food is a feature at Preidlhof; breakfast is a buffet feast featuring fresh juices, different kinds of granolas, breads (over 20 types) and milks with plenty of healthy options ior a full à la carte menu. Lunch is a vitality buffet taken on the outdoor terrace and dinner is a more formal affair.

The evenings are a good time to visit the sauna tower as most guests head to dinner around 7.30pm. Keep up with your fitness regime in the gym; it is fully equipped with the latest Technogym equipment and it looks out onto the large pool next door to the spa.

One of the best spa hotels in Europe, Preidlhof has won many awards and it's easy to see why guests return again and again; fantastic treatments and amazing staff make it the ideal luxury hotel for a short break, honeymoon, detox or a simple reset.
