The 4 seasons at the Spas of Abano and Montegrotto: winter
Today, December 21st is the first day of winter, we officially enter the coldest season of the year.
But not at the Spa!
Indeed, it is the best time to fight the cold and let yourself be enveloped by the warmth that characterizes not only the areas of the spa and swimming pools, but the whole hotel.
We are pleased to light our wood-burning fireplaces, to create that slightly "hygge" atmosphere. Although there is no exact translation of this term, “welcoming” or “pleasant” could be the words that come closest to this very profound concept.
Basically, it means creating a pleasant atmosphere and enjoying the beauty of life with loved ones. The glow of the candles is hygge. Getting comfortable and reading a book is hygge. But also being in the company of your beloved or a pleasant conversations with friends.
And in the lobby, thanks also to the wood-burning fireplace that heats the soft seats next to the Gold Bar, we have recreated that corner of comfort to relax and feel safe.
Maybe sipping a tea or an infusion of the new, precious selection we have chosen for you.
Tea and herbal teas of the best blends from China and Japan, enriched with nuances of flavors, will be served accompanied by small homemade pastries, for a journey of new tastes and aromas.
In our selection of proposals in the Drink Gallery, the December Cocktail Gallery limited edition also stands out, that is the fruits of modern mixology included in a cocktail list dedicated exclusively to the month of December. The drinks we propose, in fact, are prepared with raw materials and typical products of the winter months, with evocative names that recall the Christmas period, such as Silent Night or Ciocktail, or Mandarito.
For those who want to experience the Christmas atmosphere even outside the hotel, we recommend a walk in the historic center of Padua, with the typical market and the lights in the squares and under the arcades.
Not far from us, in the historic center of Bassano di Grappa, a small city that is a real gem especially in recent weeks, it is possible to visit the photographic exhibition dedicated to Ruth Orkin, which hosts the black and white shots of this American photojournalist on the centenary of her birth.
You cannot miss the walks on the paths of our Euganean Hills, always suggestive in any season to be followed by relaxation in our thermal pools and why not, a regenerating massage or a ritual as a pampering for body and mind.
Esplanade Tergesteo - Luxury Retreat is also your winter retreat.
