Spa Pointer Interview with Ulrike Muthen, Spa Manager of Palace Spa:

Philosophy/Architecture/Team of the SPA

The Gstaad Palace and the Palace SPA are very special. Each stone of the Hotel could tell a long and compelling story. The Hotel has seen very sad and difficult times, but also glamorous and heart-warming events.

The Palace with its SPA is located at one of the most beautiful spots on earth – at least the locasl say so. When god created this region called „Saanenland“, he took a hand full of the best, most beautiful and valuable and opened this hand over the Saanenland. This is no naked, cold and frightening high mountainous region, but a cosy, warm and sympathetic mountain area with love to details.

This is what Familiy Scherz, the owner family, filled with life, people and history. This authenticity for tradition and closeness to natur is also reflected in the SPA. Regional stones from the nearby lake „Blausee“ have been used to decorate the SPA and regional artists designed art for the SPA with materials of farmers.This is why the SPA has a plain elegant atmosphere with a human touch.

Mister Scherz himself has done research in his hometown Gstaad for local bathing and wellness tradition, which then influenced the design of the SPA in 2007. The Palace is cinvincing through special details, and not gigantism.

Our guests wills find competent people here who will make you forget your everyday life. The SPA is an island and close to heaven, how a regular guest used to say. The Palace not only has a rare family tradition, but also a staff tradition. Many of our collegues continue working here since decades and keep their loyalty to our hotel and its guests. There is something special about this hotel, what you can not describe, but what you definitely will feel, when you are here as a guest.

Escape, for example, for 2 hours with our „ Hammam Experience“. The traditional idea of a Hammam will be performed with perfection. You will pass 7 different rooms, where all your senses will be addressed and no space left for your daily concerns. In the „dark room“ you will have a foot bath in the beginning for cleaing purposes, followed then by relaxing moments in the „white room“ or „endless room“. Then you will experience a traditional soap foam massage, which will be completed by visiting a steam bath. Then your journey leads you into the „floating pool“ to refresh and relax. Finally a moisturizing oil massage will be the highlight of your journey. In one word, it is a dream, just heavenly!

The Palace SPA only exists in Gstaad and in the Palace, because only here you can find the perfect mixture of facilities, technical know-how, natural resources and human touch. And my personal opinion, as someone who comes from Germany, is that I like it to be stopped and get the chance to bethink. This is something really rare today. The Palace Spa is a dream which has come true!

Spa Pointer interview with Spa Evian Source about Spa Philosophy:

Philosophy of the spa

The philosophy of Spa Evian Source is based on the trade mark of the Evian water company.

‘ Water is as important as the air that we breathe ‘

Therefore with this idea in mind, using the benefits of Evian water, our trained therapists, and our vaste range of treatments, we aim to balance body and mind, relax, regenerate and circulate the energies, allowing peace and serenity.
We say that if you are healthy on the inside this will be shown on the outside – the goal of Spa Evian Source.

Architecture and design of the spa

Spa Evian Source had a relook 18 months ago to bring us closer to the Evian brand.
The colours were changed to represent Evian and the logo of the thermal centre was put on our brochures. Quotations were also written on the walls of the spa to represent youthfulness.

Atmos of the spa

The atmosphere of Spa Evian Source is calm, warm and relaxing.

There is a beautiful relaxing room for all our clients and tea and water are available all day long.

Our clients wishes are catered for from the moment they arrive in the Spa , to discussing their needs followed up with a medical questionnaire and through to the very personalised treatments.
All our treatments are done by our specialised and expert therapists trained all over the world and personalised with their own knowledge.

Our one to one policy is shown throughout the clients stay – whatever the client needs or wishes we try our very best to accomodate – we are there to make their stay unforgettable.
With all this in mind, clients come back year after year knowing that they will rediscover, each time, welcoming, familiar faces in the relaxing and unique atmosphere of our spa.

Spa Pointer Interview with Hotel Splendido & Splendido Mare about their Wellness Centre philosophy:

Philosophy of the Wellness Centre

The focus is on the human touch : all our treatments are performed manually, no machines are used.

The basic concept is that the treatments offered by our Wellness Centre must strike a balance in between the emotional sphere and the aesthetical sphere.
There is a section of the Wellness Centre menu devoted to all kinds of massages and body treatments to please the sensorial and emotional needs of our guests’ seeking for ultimate relaxation and pampering. Furthermore, the Wellness Centre menu also presents a plethora of treatments catering for aesthetical requirements i.e. Facials. Our guests also long for immediate, aesthetical benefits: think of our ‘Collagen and Hyaluronic Facial’ or ‘Age repair Facial’ among others.

Which influences melt together in your Wellness Centre philosophy?

We aim at blending Eastern & Western massages techniques: something that is clear from the Wellness Centre Menu treatments.

For example, this year we have launched the ‘Stressless Room’ one of our three cabins in the Wellness Centre where you can do Personal Stretching or Breathing prior to your Massage. We offer exotic treatments like the Rassoul Ritual, Indian Head Massage, Reflexology along with treatments which are more traditional like the ‘Intensive Muscle Release’ or aesthetical treatments like the facials.
We also have Sauna, Steam Bath and Fitness Room in a separate location from the Wellness Centre. These are to be found near the Pool area.

How do you manage to implement the philosphy in every day work life?

There is a huge passion in what we do, the idea that we must provide positive energy and pass it on to our guests during a treatment. They come on vacation to Portofino and to the Splendido to unwind and take a break from their busy lives and we assist them in achieving ultimate relaxation. The Splendido Wellness Centre is part of one of the finest hotels in Italy, highly recognised internationally (Condé Nast Traveller Readers’ Travel Awards, n. 1, Overseas Leisure Hotels Category for Europe, Asia Minor and the Russian Federation, September 2010) therefore our standard of maintaining excellence at all times is vital also in the management of the Wellness Centre.

Architecture and interior design of the Wellness Centre

In which way does the philosophy of your Wellness Centre influence the architecture or interior design of your facility?

We would describe our Wellness Centre as elegant, bright, peaceful. On one side there is the Regional Park of Portofino, and on the other the outstanding outdoor relax area (as well as the Garden Massage area) overlooking the Portofino Bay. Our guests come to us to unwind, they find exactly what they are looking for.

Atmos of the Wellness Centre

How would you describe the atmosphere of your Wellness Centre in own words?

Please see above

How do you create an atmosphere which is conform to your Wellness Centre philosophy?

Music, candles, natural scents from the surrounding gardens (especially if the guests are enjoying a Garden Massage). The sensorial dimension is paramount. What is also extremely important is the staff, our 6* star, which offers an amazing service in a peaceful, soothing environment, conveying positive energy to our guests.

Services and team of the Wellness Centre

Please describe the services of your Wellness Centre in few words and how the services are influenced by your philosophy

There is a section of the Wellness Centre menu devoted to all kinds of massages and body treatments to please the sensorial and emotional needs of our guests’ seeking for ultimate relaxation and pampering. Furthermore, the Wellness Centre menu also presents a plethora of treatments catering for aesthetical requirements i.e. Facials. Our guests also long for immediate, aesthetical benefits: think of our ‘Collagen and Hyaluronic Facial’ or ‘Age repair Facial’ among others.
We have a section of the Wellness Centre Menu devoted to children treatments, as well as family treatments such as the Mother and Daughter Wellness Package or the Family Yoga. Our approach is to welcome all and have all the members of the family find their way to wind down at the Splendido.

Couples are also hugely important to cater for: Splendido is a typical honeymoon/anniversary/proposal destination. That is why we offer couples’ massages and couples’ massages classes, honeymoon and anniversary packages.

How would you describe the choice and composition of personalities and professions in your Wellness Centre team?

Our team is made up of people who strive for excellence and are in love with their job.

How do you / your resort / your Wellness Centre make a difference to your guests?

Our aim is to personalize the service at all times. If a guest has a specific request or has a special need, we seek to satisfy them in the best way possible. If they ask for something special which is not on the Wellness Centre menu and we are able to do it, we are delighted to think outside of the box and customize a treatment.
