The privately-owned Aspria group has opened a hotel in Berlin, Germany.
Adjoining the existing Aspria Spa and Sporting Club, the luxury hotel extension - 39 rooms, three apartment suites and two conference rooms - also incorporates new spa features to enhance the existing spa offering.
These include a wave dream installation relaxation room, salt inhalation room, 46sq m hammam and a second mind-body studio.
All hotel guests have full access to the facilities at the 14,000sq m club, which include a state of the art gym with an extensive class timetable and personal training, as well as activities such as beach volleyball in the summer.
"Staying at Aspria Hotel in Berlin will be like staying in a private members club.
"It's intimate and friendly and there's more engagement - a large number of guests will use the club facilities and feel like members of the extended family," says Aspria CEO Brian Morris. "There's really nothing in the city that compares.
It's a real 'escape' and we're very proud of it." (see also Health Club Management magazine, Oct 09, p30)
