Spa en suite
Cocooning, safety, privacy
– these trends are also changing what guests need in a hotel. For hoteliers, this raises the question: where and under what conditions will hotel guests feel comfortable and what offers can be made to guests to take this into account?
Enjoying a sauna and wellness in your own hotel room instead of in the wellness area is one possible way to fulfil this desire for more privacy. Wellness suites offer a completely private place to retreat where guests can relax undisturbed on their own schedule.
Planning
Customised Planning – for every installation situation
There are numerous possibilities inside a hotel room to accommodate a small but superb sauna. A custombuilt sauna can be individually customised to he room’s dimensions. Corners, niches and sloped ceilings are optimally utilised and thus transformed into a place of wellbeing. Our recommendation: if the sauna and other wellness facilities are taken into account when planning the hotel room, they can be ideally integrated into the room from a technical, visual and bathing viewpoint right from the start and coordinated with the interior design concept.
Many guests who have booked our suite with a sauna have booked the same room again. I think that speaks for itself.
Sauna in the hotel room: From the room to the spa suite
Those who want to install a private spa in an existing hotel will be creating a brand-new, attractive service for those guests that do not want to use a public wellness area. Cleverly transform a room into an oasis of well-being or combine two rooms to create a more spacious wellness area, which can even be divided if required to offer particular flexibility – there are no limits to your creativity.

S1 sauna: ideal for small rooms
The expanding S1 sauna is the innovation for taking a private sauna in hotel rooms with limited space.

In its closed state, when the sauna is not being used, it is no larger than a standard cupboard with a depth of 60 cm.

An elegant EASY sauna – in this design with walnut wood and spacious glass fronts – and a free-standing bathtub offer a high level of relaxation while giving the room a unique wellness ambience.

This is possible in many cases with the easy-to-install models EASY and S1 with a 230 V connection.
