When the hotel opens its doors in 2018, it will be the first in the Nordic region to offer guests an integrated wellness concept known as\u00a0Care<\/em>. This concept encompasses outdoor exercise, seasonal massage treatments, meditation sessions, and detoxification programs\u2014all designed to alleviate stress\u2014as well as use of the hotel\u2019s two saunas and pool.
\nComplementing the services for physical wellbeing, The\u00a0Playground<\/em>\u00a0is an intimate gym where the customer experience includes new perspectives on wellbeing of the mind, heart, and body. This ethos is continued throughout the hotel through a collaboration with Hintsa Performance, a multidisciplinary philosophy\u00a0practiced by world-champion athletes to top business executives across the world.<\/p>\n
