Introducing Hotel Quelle: 5 Star Nature Spa in The Dolomites Offering Wellness and Outdoor Adventure

Pilot PR is delighted to be representing Hotel Quelle – an award-winning ‘Nature Spa’ in the Dolomites, South Tyrol, Italy. Hotel Quelle is embarking on an exciting new chapter in its sixty-five year history with the next generation of the Steinmair Family taking a more central role in the day to day operation.

Hotel-Quelle-Biological-Bathing-Pool

Deriving its name from the German word for ‘Source’, Hotel Quelle is situated at an altitude of 1400m at the point where the three Valleys of Casies, Pustertal and Gsies meet; 40 minutes from the town of Bruneck in the province of Bolzano.


Recently awarded 5 Stars, Hotel Quelle is pursuing an ambitious luxury upgrade and refurbishment. This started in 2016 and has seen the completion of a new reception area, Sky Lounge and Junior Suites, as well as a new infinity pool, infinity event sauna, and the first Snow Sauna in the Alps. In May 2018, Hotel Quelle will be also be unveiling 7 luxury serviced apartments.


Nature Spa


The interior design and architecture draws on the beautiful natural surroundings, with aspects of nature prevalent throughout; organic materials such as local wood and bark are incorporated to bring the outdoors inside.


The hotel is surrounded by beautiful landscaped gardens to promote curiosity and reflection – in nature both tamed and wild - framed by mountain views. There is a touch of folklore too with a Chapel on-site dedicated to St Christopher, the patron Saint of Travellers.


Two of the hotel’s seven pools extend from the indoors to the outdoors, accessed via motion-sensor glass doors, while the Biological Bathing Pond added this year, along with the new outdoor Kneipp and barefoot walking path, encourages a more visceral reconnection with nature.


Original features such as the water mill have been preserved and incorporated into one of the saunas.


An exceptional wellness offering for both adults and families


Hotel Quelle offers over 5000m² of wellness, relaxation and beauty space, including a dedicated spa for adults only, and a separate and highly impressive Family Spa. There are 10 sauna and steam rooms, including the Snow Sauna – a unique ice lounge designed to relieve sore muscles and tension, particularly effective after a hot sauna. Other facilities include a warming salt-water grotto, South Tyrollean biological pine tree sauna, and a mountain crystal salt cleaning steam bath.


Hotel Quelle’s SPA offers 13 treatment rooms, a comprehensive range of natural and holistic therapies, and a wide choice of beauty treatments using luxurious international brands. The Spa also champions local natural product houses such as Team Dr Joseph.


Spacious Rooms
