Palazzo BelVedere

At Palazzo Belvedere, the focus is on well-being, aiming to achieve a balance between mind and body, which is crucial for personal wellness. The spa treatments are tailored to your individual needs. Before your arrival, you will complete a comprehensive questionnaire, followed by a personal consultation with one of our doctors to determine your unique constitutional type: earth, water, air, or fire. These 4 elements have a profound impact on the balance and health of our organism and are the origin of our universe. Based on this analysis, you will receive customised spa treatments specifically tailored to your needs and constitutional type, to restore balance to the four elements and enhance energy, strength, serenity, and power. This way, you will enjoy a truly unique and personalised experience. The combination of traditional European medicine, holistic naturopathy, and the healing power of thermal water provides a comprehensive, regenerative experience.

In the 2,000 sqm wellness area, you will find experiences that engage the senses and restore spiritual energy: The relaxation rituals at the hotel's wellness centre are inspired by the philosophy of Hippocratic teachings. According to these teachings, balance between the four elements of water, air, fire, and earth should be restored. The thermal tradition of Montecatini Terme and the precious power of thermal water combine with the many benefits of a health-promoting lifestyle, which is encouraged and supported during your stay at Palazzo BelVedere. The hotel's circular garden invites you to relax.

The Vitaliter programmes Levis, Medium, Magnum at BelVedere are available all year round and are led by experienced practitioners. They aim to promote a harmonious balance between body and mind, which is crucial for our personal well-being. The wellness philosophy of the hotel is based on the teaching of the four elements – earth, air, water, and fire – which can often become unbalanced. They aim to support life force and restore balance and well-being.

Massages, treatments, rituals, diet, exercise, thermal baths, breathing exercises, the art of thinking, conscious meditation, art therapy, singing, dancing, relationship therapies are some of the elements used in customised, holistic courses at BelVedere to address various aspects (physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual) and consider their interaction. Each course is designed according to the principle "the right thing for you, in the right amount," with the quality and quantity of treatments carefully adjusted. BelVedere offers the Vitaliter programme in varying durations and intensities:

"Levis": With the "Levis" intensity, you can indulge in a light and relaxed manner.

"Medium": By choosing the "Medium" intensity, you have the opportunity to boost your self-esteem and activate your inner resources.

"Magnum": Choosing the "Magnum" intensity allows for an intensive exploration filled with treatments and activities that promote a comprehensive physical, mental, and emotional transformation.

The diet in the Vitaliter Programme aims to balance the 4 elements of water, air, earth, and fire. The menu is accordingly divided into these four elements. The Four Elements cuisine is based on the concept that certain foods are better or worse for individuals depending on their temperament. For example, fiery natures should avoid spicy spices as they could further fuel their explosive nature. By applying this dietary philosophy, imbalances are recognised and harmonised, which is particularly important in prevention. Each person can strengthen their constitution through targeted food choices, similar to traditional healing methods of other cultures. This teaching has its origins far back to the ancient Greeks, particularly Hippocrates, who adopted the Four Elements doctrine from ancient Egypt.

In addition to the year-round available Vitaliter Programme, the hotel offers an exclusive Vitaliter Season several times a year. The Vitaliter Season aims to restore harmony between body and mind. Enjoy an extended range of activities and treatments designed to promote your well-being and enhance your health. Immerse yourself in an even more intense wellness experience, tailored to your needs and offering numerous opportunities to revitalise and strengthen your body and mind. During this 21-day event, you can decide the duration of your stay (available from 3 nights). The next Vitaliter Season takes place from 23 June to 13 July.
