Private thermal springs and hot pools

The hotel has 3 private thermal springs, from which flow over 10,000 liters of water per minute at a temperature of 84 ° C. The bromine-iodine salty waters are the heart of the activity of the internal thermal establishment, dedicated to balneotherapy mud: water and clay are unique and inimitable therapeutic elements, whose analgesic and anti-inflammatory active ingredient is scientifically certified and protected by a European patent. Entirely natural, the bio-thermal clay used by the Hermitage comes from a small lake located not far away, in Arquà Petrarca. Its maturation in thermal water lasts at least 60 days and gives it the plasticity and chemical-physical characteristics that make it therapeutic.

The thermal waters, brought to a lower temperature, but always hot, also feed the indoor and outdoor pools of the hotel, equipped with a relaxation circuit and water games, where you can swim outdoors surrounded by warmth even when the climate becomes more stiff. In the swimming pool, followed by graduates in physiotherapy and motor science, it is also possible to follow individual and assisted hydro-kinesis therapy sessions. Motor re-education in thermal water is particularly effective both in physical recovery (following trauma and surgery) and in the treatment of joint pain associated with aging.
