Where can I see the total price and fees?

Wellness and salt cave

Is the wellness private?

Our wellness experiences are built on privacy. The exact format, duration, and included amenities can always be found with the selected experience in the reservation.

Can I book wellness without accommodation?

Available wellness experiences and salt cave visits can be booked separately in our reservation system. Simply select the experience and the currently offered dates will be displayed.

What should I know before visiting the wellness area?

Please follow the arrival time and practical instructions in the confirmation. If you have any health restrictions or special requests, let us know before your visit.

Until when can I cancel wellness free of charge?

You can cancel a wellness booking free of charge at least 24 hours before its scheduled start. For a paid booking, we return the refundable amount through the original payment method where possible.

What if I cancel wellness late or do not attend?

Within 24 hours of the start there is no automatic entitlement to a refund. Not attending counts as a late cancellation. The operator may grant an individual exception in justified cases.

How long is a salt-cave visit?

The recommended salt-cave visit is 20 to 45 minutes. Check the specific duration and available slot when booking; capacity is limited.

Should I tell you about allergies or intolerances in advance?

Yes. If your package includes refreshments, tell us about food allergies and intolerances before your visit so we can take them into account during preparation.
