Visiting Merano Terme
Merano Terme are famous wellness hot springs that offer a range of services with 25 pools indoor and outdoor, different saunas, a spa area for massages and restaurants. I can say this is the biggest ‘holistic’ center I’ve been and loved their approach to wellbeing. The building itself is very strange for a wellness center, with modern interior design by famous Italian architect Matteo Thun, from the outside it looks like an aquarium but it gives a sense of openness when you are inside it.
I would have loved to be at the outside thermal water pools with snow surrounding me but given the sunny skies, I enjoyed being surrounded by nature and mountains instead. Princess Sissi used to have her wellness treatments in Merano and we know how much she loved beauty treatments, so lots of the treatments at the Marano Terme are based on what she used to do, like the royal bath of whey protein, a modern version of bathing yourself in milk.
