01 Our philosophy

For us, sustainability is not a passing trend, but a daily choice that guides every decision.

Set in the Euganean Hills Regional Park, we believe true wellbeing grows from the balance between health, nature and respect for future generations. From the energy we produce to the thermal water that defines us, every choice is made to leave a lighter footprint — and a more authentic experience for our guests.

05 — Frequently asked questions

The GSTC certification, in short

What is the GSTC certification?

GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourism Council) sets the leading international standard for sustainable tourism. It certifies concrete practices in environmental protection, social responsibility, valuing the local territory and responsible hotel management.

When did you obtain it and how long is it valid?

We obtained the GSTC certification in 2024. It is valid until 2027, with periodic audits confirming that the standards are maintained over time.

What does it mean to be the first GSTC-certified thermal hotel in Europe?

It means having demonstrated, against independent international criteria, a commitment to sustainability that few others in the thermal sector can claim — a distinctive part of how we understand hospitality.

How are the sustainability criteria verified?

Compliance with the GSTC standards is assessed through measurable criteria covering energy, water, waste, purchasing, people and the territory, with documented and ongoing audits.

How does sustainability affect my stay?

Our commitment improves the quality of your stay: clean energy, carefully managed thermal water, local seasonal products and a setting inside the Euganean Hills Regional Park. You too can contribute with small daily gestures.
