Nestled in the idyllic setting of Lake Achensee in Tyrol, Austria, Posthotel Achenkirch has long established itself as a sanctuary for adults seeking holistic wellness and personal rejuvenation. One of the pioneers of wellness hotels in Europe, Posthotel Achenkirch seamlessly combines luxury with a deep commitment to individual well-being, making it a true haven for those looking to step away from the pressures of modern life.

A Wellness Wonderland

Spread over an impressive 7,000 square metres, the wellness and spa facilities at Posthotel Achenkirch are a testament to its reputation as one of the top luxury retreats in Austria. Guests can immerse themselves in a world of calm with diverse pools, including saltwater and Yin-Yang pools, and a sauna experience that spans from traditional Finnish saunas to the unique Sunken Temple, which features meditation rooms, saunas and a dedicated Ladies’ Spa.

But wellness here goes beyond relaxation. The hotel offers an impressive 60-hour weekly program combining yoga, Qi Gong, Tai Chi, and fitness routines that incorporate cutting-edge biohacking technology. These programs, led by in-house experts, aim to restore both body and mind, guiding guests through personalized mental health, nutrition, and anti-ageing practices.

Traditional and Holistic Healing

At the heart of Posthotel Achenkirch’s philosophy is a dedication to holistic health, with a special focus on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Guests have the rare opportunity to receive treatments guided by a resident Chinese Shaolin Master who offers expertise in acupuncture, herbal remedies, and energy work. This fusion of Eastern and Western practices sets the Posthotel Achenkirch apart as a leading wellness destination, perfect for those interested in mindfulness, detoxification, and overall well-being.

Culinary Delights and Sustainability

Gastronomy plays an equally significant role in the Posthotel Achenkirch experience. The hotel’s TENZO restaurant specializes in TCM-inspired cuisine, blending Asian flavours with local ingredients for a dining experience that supports guests’ wellness goals. Moreover, sustainability is a key part of Posthotel Achenkirch’s ethos; much of the produce used in its restaurants is sourced from the hotel’s own farm, furthering its commitment to eco-friendly luxury. Wine lovers will also be pleased find their favourite labels in the property’s historic Wine Cellar, stocked with over 40,000 bottles, including some of the world’s top vintages.

Endless Amenities: From Lipizzaners to Golf

Posthotel Achenkirch’s commitment to wellness extends to physical activity, offering unique experiences that include access to a panoramic 9-hole golf course and the hotel’s Lipizzaner riding centre. The Lipizzaner horses, bred on the hotel’s own stud farm, offer guests an exclusive opportunity to connect with these magnificent animals through riding lessons or simply enjoying the peaceful beauty of their presence. For those inclined towards fitness, the hotel’s state-of-the-art facilities provide both indoor and outdoor workout spaces equipped with innovative technologies.
