Wellness hotel in southern Burgenland: a systematic approach to rejuvenation in Bad Tatzmannsdorf
The morning in southern Burgenland begins quietly. A wisp of mist still hangs over the Bad Tatzmannsdorf golf course; in the paddock next door, the Lipizzaner horses move as if in slow motion; and somewhere on the 125 hectares of the Reiters Supreme estate, someone is rolling out their yoga mat on the grass. No set schedule, no noise – just open space. It is this tranquillity that the hotel has made its guiding principle: a 5-star, adults-only hotel where the day revolves around you, and not the other way round.
125 hectares of open space: exercise in the great outdoors
What sets the Reiters Supreme apart from many wellness hotels is quite simply the space. 125 hectares of private hotel grounds mean: golf on the hotel’s own 27-hole course right on the doorstep, horse riding and trail rides on the hotel’s own Lipizzaner horses, open-air yoga, forest bathing or simply an hour’s walk without leaving the grounds. The mild climate of southern Burgenland extends the outdoor season well into autumn – late summer here isn’t just a leftover period, but perhaps the most beautiful time of the year.
Three waters, one principle
Inside, the sense of spaciousness continues. The Yin-Yang Spa utilises three types of water – fresh water, thermal brine, and thermal water – alongside saunas, steam baths and a range of treatments from Ayurveda and infrared therapy to above-water massages. There is more to this than just variety: warm, mineral-rich water relaxes the muscles, buoyancy relieves pressure on joints and fasciae, and moving between the pools provides gentle stimulation to which the body responds with deeper relaxation. It is no coincidence that Bad Tatzmannsdorf has been a spa resort for generations – the Reiters Supreme translates this tradition into a contemporary regeneration concept.
From the Panorama Gym to the Retreat
Those looking for an active break will find it just next door: the gym, spanning over 120 m² and boasting panoramic views, features cardio and strength training equipment, a free weights area and a dedicated functional and mobility zone, with personal trainers on hand on request to provide guidance, including on nutritional matters. One floor above, the exercise studio hosts over 40 different sports and fitness programmes each week – ranging from HIIT to gentle yoga, with a new session every day.
In the evening, when the highly acclaimed kitchen has served up its dishes and the light over the golf course turns golden, you perhaps best understand the concept behind this place: here, regeneration isn’t just a treatment you book. It’s the hotel’s fundamental ethos – and, after a few days, your own too.
And for those who want to make the most of late summer for a fresh start, the perfect opportunity arises at the end of August: from 27 to 30 August, the Radiance Retreat will be taking place at the hotel – three days that combine yoga, regeneration and a break from it all into a focused programme. You can find all the details about this exciting retreat on the Reiters Supreme website or in the Reiters Supreme hotel presentation on hotelsinshape.com.
