A spa with soul ...

According to an ancient legend, the first to discover the beneficial effects of the thermal waters of Dolenjske Toplice was the sexton’s dog. Injured one day, he hid from his owner but was eventually found at a pool where he was bathing his injury in warm water with the temperature of the human body.

Dolenjske Toplice is among the oldest natural spas in Slovenia. The first documents that mention Dolenjske Toplice reach back to 1228, and enviable dates are boasted by the Hotel Vital established in 1776 and the Hotel Kristal, which was built in 1899. The beneficial effects of its thermal water with a temperature of 36° C have made this one of the most successful health resorts in Slovenia. Its highly qualified medical staff and excellent medical equipment ensure the successful rehabilitation and well being for patients, and the Balnea Wellness Center, which occupies 9,200 m², guarantees that the most demanding healthy guests will be properly pampered. The diversity of Dolenjske Toplice’s offer is further enriched by its newly renovated holiday campground, which is open year round.

Offering redefined first-rate pampering services along with cosy and airy rooms, new Hotel Balnea**** Superior was designed and built to fulfil the needs and wishes of the modern guest. In the hotel you can have a nice time at the coffee bar with a fireplace and an upright piano, meet people at Club Ana, work out at the modern Panorama fitness studio on the top floor, hold business meetings in well-appointed seminar rooms, bring your children to the Vija Vaja playroom and relax at the Balnea Wellness Centre which is connected with a panoramic hall to the hotel.

The range of services at Terme Dolenjske Toplice is perfectly complemented by the hotels Kristal**** and Vital**** and the Medical Rehabilitation Centre.
