Bettina Zens Review of Hotel Rogner Bad Blumau
Bad Blumau is without a doubt one of the most beau...
Bad Blumau is without a doubt one of the most beautiful thermal baths in Austria, if not the world. The thermal water comes from three different sources, the deepest of which - Vulcania - is 3000m deep and from which the Vulcania healing lake feeds. The atmosphere in Bad Blumau is very calm and pleasant - I was there in August, and although there were a lot of people and children, I hardly felt disturbed; I had the sports pool to myself in the morning and late in the evening and was able to swim my lengths and in between enjoy cocktails in the pool, enjoy delicious snacks in between (sorbet and ice cream on rice pudding; pancakes =)), had a massage and a session in the salt grotto. The food (breakfast buffet and evening buffet) is incredibly good: The selection is enormous, everything is regional and organic as possible and with little packaging where possible. More hotels should take an example here. I didn't have anything I didn't like and had a lot of different goodies to taste.
Then there is a rich program of small courses or points that you can attend - morning greeting yoga, back training, etc. etc. A guided tour through the technical facility or the thermal baths is also possible and highly recommended.
Of course, the prices are in the upper sector, and you should make sure to get a room at the end of the corridor / on the upper floors, so as not to be woken up by early risers in the morning (unfortunately I had a room at the very beginning of the corridor, next to the Stairs), but if you know that and are ready to invest the money, then it is a dream getaway. In addition, you get to see beautiful Hundertwasser architecture - and after a day you know your way around the maze of corridors well enough not to get lost. ;) Also worth recommending as a single.
