Palace Merano
ITALY

Palace Merano is set within landscaped gardens in the heart of Merano, offering a calm, discreet environment that supports rest between scheduled sessions. The property combines historic architecture with contemporary wellness spaces, creating a quiet daily rhythm rather than a conventional hotel atmosphere.

​

Guests can enjoy indoor and outdoor swimming pools, peaceful garden areas, and a range of shared spaces designed for relaxation. Between appointments, there are opportunities to spend time outdoors, with Merano’s promenades and nearby walking routes offering gentle ways to enjoy the surrounding Alpine setting.

​

Communal areas are intentionally understated, encouraging downtime and reflection as part of a structured wellness stay.

At the heart of Palace Merano lies the exclusive Revital® Method, a pioneering system created more than twenty years ago by Dr Massimiliano Mayrhofer. Built on three pillars - detox, regeneration, and rebalancing - it combines Western medical science, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and bioenergetics to promote lasting health and longevity.
 

Each programme begins with advanced diagnostic testing, including bioenergetic analysis, laboratory screening, and functional assessments, followed by an individually prescribed sequence of treatments, nutrition, and therapies.
 

The method is supported by five specialised departments working in harmony:

• Health & Nutrition – focuses on detoxification, metabolic repair, and tailored dietary guidance.

• Bioenergetics – restores energetic flow using biofeedback and acupuncture techniques.

• Hydro-Mud Therapy – uses thermal water, mineral-rich muds, and baths to stimulate circulation and toxin release.

• Spa & Fitness – includes physiotherapy, osteopathy, movement training, and bodywork for strength and mobility.

• Relax & Balance – addresses emotional wellbeing through mindfulness, music therapy, and flotation sessions.

The Revital® Method is continuously refined and medically supervised, offering measurable results that go beyond surface wellness to create deep, sustained vitality.

Wellness facilities are extensive, with a 6,000 sqm spa and a state-of-the-art medical centre of around 1,500 sqm within the property. The spa includes multiple treatment cabins (including hydro-mud and hydro-jet therapy), relaxation areas, an indoor pool, sauna and hammam areas, and a 31-metre outdoor pool with hydromassage features.

​

Medical and wellbeing services are delivered by a multidisciplinary team working across areas such as medical assessment, nutrition, and therapeutic support, with programmes designed around preventive care rather than a hospital-style environment. Through its collaboration with the St. Josef Health Centre, Palace Merano provides specialist consultations in cardiology, gastroenterology, dermatology, urology, and ophthalmology - strengthening its role as a leader in preventive and integrative medicine.

​

Guests can also enjoy yoga, Pilates, and mindful movement classes, while the Fitness & Recovery Lab offers tailored exercise programmes and performance recovery supported by medical insight.

Nutrition lies at the core of every wellness journey at Palace Merano. Each guest receives a tailored plan designed by expert dietitians to complement their medical programme and support detoxification, hormonal balance and digestive health.

There are two diet options available:

• The Revital Detox Diet – designed to purify and rebalance the body’s functions while eliminating toxins and excess fluids. This primarily vegetarian plan includes fish twice a week and is rich in antioxidants, vitamins and fibre. Following a medical consultation, a fasting or liquid-diet day may be recommended to enhance results. Suitable for everyone, this plan aims to restore inner balance; weight loss may occur naturally but is not its primary focus.
   

• The Bio-Light Diet – inspired by the Mediterranean tradition, this plan features healthy, light dishes with more generous portions than the Detox Diet and includes meat. It serves as a sustainable model that guests can easily integrate into daily life after their stay.

Palace Merano also offers a weekly cookery class, allowing guests to learn practical skills for maintaining healthy habits at home. Meals are served across two elegant restaurants - one dedicated to breakfast and lunch, and another for dinner service. The Tea Lounge provides a relaxing space for herbal and green teas, mocktails and barley or chicory coffee alternatives

• A long-established, medically supervised retreat with a clearly structured approach, developed through the Revital® Method.

• Extensive facilities on one site, including a 6,000 sqm spa and a 1,500 sqm medical centre, supporting a genuinely programme-led stay.

• A calm setting in Merano, with gardens, mountain air, and an Alpine microclimate that naturally complements rest and recovery.

In keeping with its wellness philosophy, Palace Merano does not serve alcohol or traditional coffee. Instead, guests can enjoy coffee alternatives such as barley and chicory - all designed to support calm energy and gentle detoxification.

Palace Merano is best suited to adults seeking a medically supervised wellness retreat with a strong emphasis on structure, prevention, and long-term health support.

​

It is particularly well suited to:

• Guests looking for a programme-led medical spa experience, rather than a leisure-focused wellness hotel

• Those interested in preventative health, structured routines, and personalised wellness plans guided by professional supervision

• Solo travellers who value discretion, consistency, and a calm, focused environment

• Guests prepared to follow a clearly defined daily schedule that prioritises rest, nutrition, and therapeutic sessions

• Visitors who appreciate a refined, quiet setting and are comfortable with a more clinical approach to wellbeing
