Hotel details

Ayurvedic boutique retreat, which opened in 2023, is designed in a modern, wooden chalet style. Led by experts from Sri Lanka and India, it’s located in the Dolomites mountains, roughly a 2-hour drive from Verona or Innsbruck.

Where you are going...

This newly opened, modern boutique hotel, featuring only 15 rooms, offers a convenient Ayurvedic retreat without needing to travel far to the East. Set in Eggental, it’s a fantastic location for hiking with over 500 kilometers of marked trails and becomes an award-winning ski resort in the winter. We think it’s a great year-round destination!

Why you’ll love it...

At this retreat, you’ll receive authentic Ayurvedic care from a knowledgeable team of specialists from India and Sri Lanka. Each treatment program is customized just for you. It’s the first and only Ayurvedic hotel in Italy, set in the serene South Tyrol region. The natural beauty of Eggental, with its vast forests, expansive meadows, and stunning Rosengarten and Latemar mountain ranges, provides a perfect backdrop for relaxation and nature lovers. Whether you enjoy hiking the forest trails in the summer or skiing in the winter, this destination is ideal all year round.

Wellness, Spa and Health

In South Tyrol, the natural beauty combined with ancient Ayurvedic practices offers wellness programs that focus on your physical and mental health through personalized treatments, yoga, and Ayurvedic meals. Dr. Vaidya Swami Nath Mishra, an expert from India, leads the team, conducting initial consultations and creating customized treatment plans. All therapists are highly trained in Ayurvedic practices, including the traditional Panchakarma cleanse. You can choose from a range of programs, like the Rasayana for stress relief or a comprehensive Panchakarma program for detoxification and weight loss. The spa includes a sauna, cold showers, infrared loungers, and relaxation areas with stunning views. You also have free access to the spa at the nearby Engel hotel via a connecting hallway. Yoga classes are offered twice daily, with options for all levels and both active and relaxing sessions. Weekly, there are creative workshops such as painting and cooking classes. For outdoor enthusiasts, there are plenty of activities right outside your door, including hiking, biking, climbing, horseback riding, and skiing. Plus, you receive a free bus and train pass for local travel during your stay.

Holistic Activities and Sports

Yoga daily sessions: twice a day. Morning classes for both beginners and advanced practitioners, and Yoga Nidra in the late afternoon.
Workshops include a creativity session, such as painting, and a cooking class, once a week.
During summer: outdoor activities like hiking, cycling, mountaineering, and horseback riding.
During winter: skiing and cross-country skiing.

What’s on the Menu

All meals are inspired by Ayurvedic cuisine, with a touch of European influence. Ayurvedic dishes are light, nutritious, and easy to digest, using only natural ingredients with a mix of herbs and spices. The menu is mostly vegetarian, but sometimes includes fish or light poultry. The hotel uses fresh, locally sourced ingredients from South Tyrol farms, and there are also vegan, lactose-free, and gluten-free options available.
