Pure deceleration. Quellenhof Leutasch.

You can do everything, but you don't have to, because rest and relaxation meet true enjoyment here. Pure deceleration - that's what the Quellenhof Leutasch offers with relaxing time-outs for every taste.

QSPA - our source of recreation.
Immerse yourself in our SPA world with our experienced therapists. We still feel that experiencing beauty from head to toe is something special. This may be a signature treatment for face or body. Have you ever tried an Ayurveda treatment? Udvarthana with Bashpa-Svedana. Exciting? A herbal powder massage followed by an individual steam bath with herbs. Our QSPA menu is varied; those who like it traditional opt for a sports massage. Kneaded and fit for a sauna afterwards. But not all saunas are the same: you can choose from a sky sauna with a view of the mountains to an old wood sauna. Then it's off to the snow room, because to cool down gently after a sauna, it's winter here all year round. By the way: In 2021 the Quellenhof Leutasch was again awarded 3 lilies and 17 (out of 20) points by the Relax Guide.

Dive into the wet element.
Dive in, glide through the water and swim your laps undisturbed - this is guaranteed by our 25m-long pool, which lets you swim in the open air, warm and at a wonderful 32°C all year round. If you prefer it a little warmer, treat yourself to some time out in the 35°C warm brine pool. For all those who prefer to stay indoors, the indoor pool is ideal for a little personal swimming workout - ideal for cooling down after the steam bath and as a wonderful preparation for our evening culinary temptation.

Enjoyable highlights.
What would a nice dinner be without a suitable glass of wine? It would not be for us the Quellenhof Leutasch. Our cuisine is traditional to international with selected ingredients, as far as possible in organic quality, but with great attention to vegetarian and vegan delicacies. Anyone who has spent a holiday at the Quellenhof Leutasch should have visited the wine cellar. Not only architecturally a feast for the eyes, the wine list offers specialties from Austria and South Tyrol. The enjoyment of wine is truly not only reserved for the evening. If you would like to enjoy a special glass during the day, you will find a tasting facility in our Vineum with 12 varieties of the finest wines. Simply take a glass, choose your wine and pay with your room card. 24/7, in case it should take longer.
