COLUMBIA Hotel Bad Griesbach ****s

Culinary delicacies, greens and wellness for golf gourmets

Not far from the historic cities of Passau, Salzburg and Regensburg lies the Rottal with its gentle hills and hot thermal springs. Whoever has regarded this enchanting landscape with his own eyes understands why the Rottal region is also affectionately called "Bavaria's Tuscany". However, the area has more to offer than historic cities and picturesque nature: With six 18-hole courses, three 9-hole courses, a children's golf course and the world's largest golfi ng academy, the Rottal region has become one of Europe's major golfi ng centres.

Located at the heart of the Rottal, the stylish, elegant COLUMBIA Hotel Bad Griesbach invites you to pay a visit. Here, golf gourmets will fi nd everything to their taste. Not only do wonderful greens await demanding golfers amidst a breathtaking landscape here; enjoyment aplenty is also on offer. For example, guests can choose their own personal, favourite room from amongst the hotel's 105 tasteful and fully-furnished rooms and suites. The absolute pinnacle, in the truest sense of the word, is the 100-square-metre tower suite with roof terrace.

Nor does the culinary world of COLUMBIA Hotel Bad Griesbach leave any desire unfulfi lled: The Michelin star-winning Il Giardino restaurant thrills even the most demanding of gourmets. The Mediterranean Galleria restaurant, the almost legendary Mexican speciality restaurant El Sotano and the Seven C`s Club offer culinary delicacies for gourmets.

The COLUMBIA beauty & spa also meets the highest of standards: Here, the thermal bath, which is heated to 36 degrees, a colour light aroma sauna, bio herbal sauna, steam grotto and the outdoor pool, which is heated to 24 degrees, with extensive relaxation area and pool bar promise pure relaxation. A total of 14 treatment rooms invite you to engage in a little personal wellness with individually co-ordinated applications.

To achieve this, the landscape around the hotel offers outstanding opportunities for setting things in motion with a hike or Nordic walking tour – and for leaving the humdrum of everyday life far behind you.
