To ensure maximum enjoyment and well-being whilst you recharge those batteries our WellVital hotels and localities have been carefully selected according to strict quality control criteria. Only facilities meeting all the criteria and being approved by fully-trained, independent inspectors are awarded the WellVital seal of approval. Whether you come in search of exercise, relaxation, beauty pampering or spa treatments one thing is certain - Bavaria has everything needed for that all-round feeling of well being: beautiful scenery, a rich array of culture, well-preserved customs and traditions and warm and friendly people.
You are in the best of hands in Bavaria - before, during and after your stay
We are very keen for you to get the maximum feeling of well-being out of your stay. WellVital pampering starts even before you arrive. Our well-trained staff members are on hand to answer all your questions even before you get here. To help to reduce stress to a minimum during your journey we can provide a pick-up service to and from the local railway station at a charge. We will naturally also provide full support during your stay whilst our WellVital chefs will treat you to an array of fresh, regional, wholemeal and vegetarian gourmet delights. A comprehensive programme of exercise and relaxation will help you enjoy your holiday to the full whilst an attractive programme of entertainment will help you fully enjoy the beauties of Bavaria, too. No doubt there will be a valuable tip or two that you will want to take back home with you.
