Schloss Elmau Luxury Spa, Retreat and Cultural Hideaway

Sixty-two miles (100 km) south of Munich is Schloss Elmau, tucked deep in the calm of the Bavarian Alps. It's a sanctuary framed by dramatic peaks and streams; a spa retreat, family escape and romantic haven; a place to breathe deep and discover. Three adult spas offer outstanding treatments — and the largest hammam this side of Istanbul. Recharge in the empowering Alps as your children go free-range in three family spas, the kids' club or edutainment workshops. The variety of restaurants cover everything from high-end Thai cuisine to fondue feasts. Browse the bookshop and library, or enjoy a world-class recital in the concert hall.
