Accommodation

Echte Freude am Urlaub ist die Summe unendlich vieler magischer Momente. Im 4* Aktiv & Vital Hotel Thüringen von Familie Gerber steht für Sie als Gast das ganzheitliche Verwöhnen an erster Stelle.

Bereits die Lage des Hotels ist ein Paradies zum Energie-Tanken – mitten im Grünen des Thüringer Waldes, auf einem sonnigen Hochplateau über der Stadt Schmalkalden mit wunderschönem Blick über das Tal, sowie auf die Rhön und den Rennsteig. Ob Wanderer, Mountainbiker oder Naturliebhaber – im Aktiv & Vital Hotel Thüringen können Sie einfach entspannt loslassen, genießen und sich inmitten der wunderschönen Landschaft erholen.

Ein absoluter Wohlfühl(t)raum – großzügig und stilvoll, in frischer Moderne oder im gemütlichen Landhausstil laden 49 hochwertig und liebevoll eingerichtete Zimmer zum Zurückziehen und Träumen ein. Schlafkomfort auch bei offenem Fenster garantiert.

Im Zentrum des Hotels sind über 1000 qm dem Baden, dem Saunieren und Massieren, dem Ruhen und Verwöhnen gewidmet. Schwimmen Sie die Gedanken des Alltags im Aronia Vital SPA einfach weg. Tauchen Sie ein in eine beruhigende Atmosphäre für Körper und Geist und erleben Sie besondere Glücksmomente bei einem Saunagang im Innen- oder Außenbereich. Atmen Sie tief durch im hauseigenen Gradierwerk oder ziehen Sie Ihre Bahnen im Innenpool. Den Zauber und Duft des Thüringer Waldes können Sie zudem in Massagen und Beauty-Anwendungen erfühlen. Für unser SPA-Team ist Wellness kein Modetrend, sondern soll für ein gutes Körpergefühl sorgen.

Lassen Sie die Seele im beheizten Außenpool baumeln. Sonnenliegen im Sommer, umgeben vom erfrischenden Duft des Thüringer Waldes, glitzerndes Wasser im Pool und Vogelgezwitscher runden Ihren Entspannungsurlaub perfekt ab.

Catering

Eating is about more than just filling your stomach—it’s a moment of enjoyment, an expression of culture, and an occasion to bring people together. Whether it’s a good conversation around the table or the first bite of a new favorite dish, food creates connections and leaves a lasting impression.

We place great value on quality, freshness, and variety. We understand that enjoyment is also a personal experience: that’s why we’re happy to accommodate special dietary preferences and needs. Whether you’re vegetarian, vegan, or have intolerances like gluten or lactose—we want everyone to feel welcome and well taken care of.

Important for your visit: To ensure we can best accommodate your preferences, please let us know about any food intolerances or special dietary needs (e.g., vegan or vegetarian) before your arrival. This is the only way we can guarantee that everything is prepared for you in a timely manner and to our usual high standards.

Our kitchen thinks ahead: Creative, balanced dishes—even without animal products—are just as much a part of our philosophy as alternatives for those with allergies and special dietary needs. Because good food is for everyone.

Let yourself be inspired by our passion for flavor, care, and mindful enjoyment.
