News: Hotel Hubertus reopens 15th May, unveiling a bold reimagining of its wellness spaces

As snow begins to soften on the peaks of the Dolomites and larch forests turn a brighter green, Hotel Hubertus in South Tyrol will reopen on 15th May, inviting guests to step back into a place shaped by mountains and stillness with the recent renovation of their spa facilities. 

Set on a plateau above the Puster Valley, Hotel Hubertus is a place defined by its alpine rhythm. With its distinct stilted design suspended between earth and sky, the hotel balances both adventure and retreat. And this spring, it reopens with a new chapter: the unveiling of an expanded spa that brings the experience of wellness closer to the surrounding peaks. 

Alpine wellness reimagined  

Ushering in a new era of wellness this 2025 season, the expansive spa has been completely reimagined to offer a serene retreat with an enlarged indoor pool, adding to the world-class wellness experience at its strikingly designed spa facilities. Surrounded by newly crafted relaxation zones that blend seamlessly with the alpine landscape, the spa’s newly modernised reception sets the stage for an experience that goes beyond traditional relaxation, inviting guests to recharge in moments of stillness. 

Beyond the spa, the hotel’s extensive grounds have been thoughtfully redesigned. The iconic Alpenreych Park, a true sanctuary in the heart of the Dolomites, has been transformed with new loungers that encourage guests to unwind while taking in the breathtaking mountain vistas. A new Kneipp pond offers guests the therapeutic benefits of hydrotherapy, while a thematic path through the orchard invites exploration.  

For those seeking more than just relaxation, the panoramic terrace at the bar offers the perfect spot to enjoy an expertly crafted drink, all while gazing across the vast expanse of the surrounding peaks. With these thoughtful renovations, Hotel Hubertus has created a harmonious blend of nature and wellness, a place where every corner, from the newly designed park to the tranquil spa, reflects the essence of alpine life and invites guests to find balance in the mountains. 

Crafted in harmony with its alpine surroundings, the renovation reflects Hotel Hubertus’s commitment to nature-led design. This renovation marks not only a physical expansion but a renewed focus on holistic wellbeing—offering a deeper, more immersive experience that speaks to the needs of today’s traveller: space to pause, to reconnect, and to breathe deeply in the stillness of the mountains. 

At the core of this transformation lies an enriched wellness philosophy, now embodied in the upgraded Alpenreych Spa, a sanctuary where traditional healing meets modern comfort. The spa’s treatment menu has been meticulously curated to reflect the hotel’s commitment to whole-body rejuvenation and inner balance. Each therapy draws from time-honoured techniques and natural elements, reinforcing the hotel’s belief in the therapeutic power of its surroundings. 

Highlights of the expanded spa offering include: 

• Total Body Massage: Designed to dissolve tension and restore energetic balance, this full-body treatment uses a combination of gentle and firm strokes to calm the nervous system, improve circulation, and harmonise body, mind and spirit. Ideal for guests seeking deep relaxation after a day of hiking or skiing in the surrounding mountains. 
• Hot Stone Massage: Harnessing the soothing warmth of volcanic stones, this massage penetrates deeply into muscle layers to unlock stiffness and melt away stress. The radiant heat promotes detoxification, while rhythmic movements awaken the body's energy reserves—creating a sense of physical renewal and emotional clarity. 
• Kobido Massage: Often referred to as “the ancient way of beauty,” this traditional Japanese facial massage delivers a natural lifting effect without invasive techniques. Through precise stimulation of facial muscles and pressure points, it enhances skin tone, boosts collagen production, and relieves built-up tension in the face, neck and shoulders. 
• Leg and Foot Massage: Perfect for active travellers, this targeted treatment focuses on relieving fatigue and tension in the lower limbs. By stimulating circulation and lymphatic drainage, it alleviates heaviness, reduces swelling and leaves the legs and feet feeling refreshed, light and invigorated. 

£££: Summer rates start from €225.00 / approx. £193 per person per night with the ¾ board included (breakfast, afternoon snack and dinner). Minimum 5-night stay required.
