The 5,000 sqm Ösch spa connects hotel guests and locals with elegant layers of wellbeing, different worlds that complement the Black Forest’s restorative nature. Quiet design details highlight the textural, acoustic & sustainable integrity of four zones that together form a journey of progressive healing. Grander water, famed for its health benefits, is used for treatments and, to reduce bottle use, drinking water. In the Harmony space, a backlit salt rock wall casts a warm amber glow, while the Microsalt air diffuser strengthens immunity and respiratory systems. The revitalising Energy zone’s foot bath prepares the body for the ice room and saunas, including a 36sqm central event sauna with full-height glazing and natural timber. Discreet lighting enhances the Asia area’s focus upon body and mind. Decorative lanterns, an ornate gate and backlit bamboo pillars set a dramatic stage for immersion into Asian spa culture, including an onsen pool filled with heated Grander water. The Ladies’ zone features a steam bath, various showers, an ice fountain and a relaxation room. Adjustable semi-transparent sheers in the open-plan space provide an additional layer of wellness – privacy - while tranquil hues and soft textures create a cosy, living-room feel. The calm of private living spaces extends to the 25m indoor pool and 20m outdoor saltwater pool, the high-tech 550sqm fitness space and the changing rooms, making workouts feel less stressful.
