Is this the greenest hotel in Europe?
Rogner Bad Blumau is a leader in responsible tourism - not just because it uses hardly any fossil fuels, even in winter.
At first glance, Rogner Bad Blumau may not look like your typical Austrian spa resort – and it isn’t. Its colourful buildings, designed by famed Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser, blend in seamlessly with the rolling hills and green landscape that characterise the Styrian province. If you’ve ever wanted to step into a whimsical fairy-tale-like setting this might just be it. And while its spa facilities and treatments are as top notch as one would expect from a member of Austria’s Finest Spa Hotels and Resorts collection, it is the hotel’s dedicated attention to the local environment that deserves notice. In fact, Rogner-Bad Blumau may well be the greenest hotel in Austria, if not Europe. The hotel uses no fossil fuels for heating, because it uses the heat from the thermal springs to keep its guests warm in winter. The hotel also pays close attention to serving all local foods, employs staff from the area, and is responsible for revitalising an area of the region that had needed a bit of an economic lift. 5-night packages start at just £435pp, including breakfast and dinner, 3 spa treatments, and return transfers from Graz.
