Sans Souci Spa Club Beauty Treatment Extraordinaire

Even the Spa Club reflects the carefree character of the entire Hotel Sans Souci. The bright, modern interior, chill-out tunes and the range of wellness options provide lightness, relaxation and integral wellbeing. Any previous stress was left behind that afternoon, my skin looked younger and brighter than before. I finally understood why the Spa Club at Hotel Sans Souci was chosen one of Europe's top three day spas and the best in Austria. All that on just 450 sqm, but with the kind of dedication that immediately gets through to the customer.

But let's go back to the beginning. I have been searching for a day spa in Vienna for a long time because I love treating myself to a timeout every once in a while. I finally found what I was looking for at Hotel Sans Souci's Spa Club. As a day guest you can opt for 2-hours, swimming only or whole day-access. It gets a bit busier during the holidays so be advised to call in for a reservation beforehand.

Spa manager Alexandra Kuhn speaks enthusiastically of her highly professional and dedicated team. Getting experts to do the job was of great importance to her. As a consequence, authorized cosmeticians are responsible for facial treatments. High-end body treatments are performed by trained therapists and highly qualified personal trainers offer professional guidance at the gym. Needless to say, you can also register with the Spa Club as a member.

I am especially fond of the pool, 'an actual sports pool', manager Kuhn explains proudly, as the water temperature of a mere 27°C really only allows for swimming laps. Which is why you will not find any lounge chairs around either, it's all about the sports effect. Those who care are welcome to sweat it off in one of the three saunas or the steam bath and lay back in one of the extra large lounge chairs afterwards. Enough reading material is provided for, as well as spring water, tea and house-made cold beverages for your refreshment.

Before commencing my Urban Facial Treatment, Ana explains to me the procedure and the products she will be using – all of them beautifully lined up on a tray and, to my great joy, 'made in Austria'. The Vinoble Line, used here exclusively, is produced in Southern Styria and naturally made from organic ingredients, guaranteed herbal only and without any chemical additives or preservatives. Meaning that even vegans can give themselves up to Ana's hands without any doubt.

While the wine-based agents start to tingle on my skin, Ana massages my feet which I perceive as tremendously soothing. Rarely have I witnessed that kind of distinct focus on and targeted response to my individual needs in this entirety. This luxury treatment definitely has a tangible impact – not only on the way I look, but also on the way I feel. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that Hotel Sans Souci is also a member of the Healing Hotels of the World.
