Baden-Baden is Germany’s most
renowned wellness city, and this hotel is
an urban oasis set in a private park. A
favourite of dignitaries and celebrities,
the hotel garnered international
attention when U.S. President Barack
Obama and twenty-five heads of state
arrived for the 2009 NATO Summit.
Perhaps some of these overworked
leaders enjoyed a treatment at the
medical spa that boasts a team of
German
doctors,
who
oversee
everything from preventive check-ups to
nutrition coaching. There are also two
beauty spas specialising in Asian and
South Pacific therapies. The Brenners
Park-Restaurant sets a romantic tone,
with deep-red walls and glittering
chandeliers, but it's the one-Michelin-
star food by head chef Paul Stradner that
makes it the area’s top-rated restaurant.
