QC Spa of Wonders: If Alice in Wonderland went to the spa…
Spectacular panoramic pools as breathtaking as the view, saunas scented with alpine fragrances, a starry hammam, enchanting relaxation areas, an indoor vertical garden… The QC Spa of Wonders is like the dreamlike mountain episode that Lewis Carroll forgot to tell us. Except that Alice wouldn't have swallowed two pieces of mushroom to go through the looking glass. She would simply savour a long drink from the Cocktail Lab (in her bathrobe, of course) at the Wonder Aperitivo included in her dream wellness experience.

Lykke Hotel & Spa: Hygge, hugs, huge chill
At the Lykke, step into a Scandinavian tale of canopy stories, trolls, and elves, all set against a backdrop of understated elegance in natural colours. Legend has it that to create the beauty and wellness rituals of the Cinq Mondes spa, its founder immersed himself in traditional medicines and the ancestral secrets of plants from all five continents. The sensory journey continues at Kaffe & Kro for a comfort-food moment featuring Nordic flavours. "Lykke" means "happiness" in Danish. You've been warned.

With its mountain- chic vibe, cosy cabins, and ultra-personalised treatments, this spa isn't just for hotel guests. Slow down to the max.
