Immersed in the gorgeous nature of Norther Italy, family owned and managed, Preidlhof launched a 360* wellness philosophy inspired by the balance between hedonic and eudaemonic happiness, creativity, science, technology and result-oriented holistic Retreats.
Main focus are prevention of lifestyle related problems, support mental wellbeing and rejuvenation through real holistic approaches.
Preidlhof’s Medical Director, Dr. Med. Alexander Angerer, is specialized in evidence-based medicine, complementary medicine, complementary psychology, phytotherapy, homoeopathy, magnetic field therapy (PAPIMI), and Traditional Chinese Medicine. He was amongst the pioneers to introduce Acupunture in a clinical setting in Italy. In his clinic, he offers anamnesis, oral therapy, infusion therapy, prescription of manual medicine, blood count, magnetic field therapy etc. With the Heart rate variability (HRV) measurement he can measure the dynamic rhythm of the heart and measures body’s energy efficiency. During a stay it is possible to assess the quality of sleep with a method used by sleep clinic experts. Dr. Angerer evaluates the results by means of a small sleep tracker the guest wears at night and provides recommendations accordingly to help improve sleep.
In September 2020, the arrival of award-winning Spa Designer, Patrizia Bortolin, started the process for an innovative new wellness concept – The Preidlhof Way, and 360° makeover. Transformational Wellness Retreats are the core of the concept, new signature Rituals and treatments, signature food philosophy and menu design and new fitness and beauty concepts.
Preidlhof’s nine signature retreats are designed to stimulate guests physically, energetically, spiritually, psychologically, socially, and emotionally. Special signature Classes are designed exclusively for Retreat guests and integrate with the work of the healers and therapists. They add the playful touch or expand the sensorial experience necessary to keep the balance between hedonic and eudaemonic wellbeing. Other experiences aim to increase self-awareness, transform quality of sleep and movement, and help attain a happier and more creative life through deeper sensorial integration.
In 2022, Preidlhof introduced thermal water and thermal wellness treatments, the mineral-rich water is sourced from a 400-year-old spring located 5km away. Excavations were completed in December 2021 as an independent, combined community initiative shared by the local hospitality industry, that brought theraml water to Preidlhof’s 80sqm indoor pool and to the private thermal bath located at the Spa.
In 2023 Preidlhof launched its New Organic & Vegan Skincare Line and in-room Cosmos organic certified Amenities: Preidlhof has launched its own signature skincare line developed with one of the best Italian brands of clean beauty. It is an innovative, natural, and environmentally friendly vegan line that fits the highest levels of luxury clean skincare.

Part of the concept are also some important certifications obtained by Preidlhof in the last years: certified as a “Quiet Place” by the Quiet Park Association for the silent beauty of its natural surroundings and it’s the first Wellness & Spa facility in the world to receive ISO 17679 certification.

4. Sustainability
Our environment is close to our hearts. That is why we and other sustainable hotels take the issue of sustainability and the careful use of resources very seriously. Our efforts have been awarded the Tyrol-South Tyrol environmental seal. What this means in detail, you can read here:
We produce our energy with our BHKW with high efficiency. The residual energy we need comes from sustainable hydroelectric power plants.
Where possible, we use energy-saving light bulbs.
The indoor swimming pool and hot water are heated with solar energy.
The taps are fitted with flow limiters, the WC cisterns with flush stops.
We consistently separate our waste into compostable organic matter, paper, glass, metal, plastics and hazardous waste.
We use reusable packaging and avoid unnecessary small packaging.
As much of the food we use as possible comes from the region, some of it even from our own production.
We only use natural flavour enhancers, such as herbs and oils.
We only use selected mild cleaning agents throughout the house.
Instead of chemical fragrance dispensers, the Preidlhof uses natural fragrance oils.
Our in-house cosmetics line is pure organic cosmetics with ingredients from the region/Italy.
The guest decides himself about the change of towels.
