One of the trends that I have been watching is
the integration of luxury resorts with health care and the rise of high-end medical tourism. As the wealthy age, this
is becoming a bigger and bigger market. InterContinental Hotels Group which runs
the hotel at the prestigious Cleveland Clinic has now announced that they will be opening the InterContinental Resort & Spa in Krems, Austria.
The 119 room hotel will be next to a healthcare clinic, the Austrian Heart
Center, which will have five operating theaters and will specialize in heart diseases. The resort is designed for
recovering patients and families and will have a spa with an indoor pool, restaurant and bar. The location, in the
scenic Wachau Valley near the city of Krems on the Danube River is a place of restful beauty sure to charm medical
tourists. The hotel and clinic are set to open in Autumn 2008.Posts with tag european hotel

Through a newsletter from Bluefish Concierge, I learned about Hotel
Palafitte, the only five-star hotel in Europe that is built on water. This hotel is located near the town of
Neuchâtel, Switzerland and is perched on pilings on Lake Neuchâtel. The hotel opened in 2002 as part of a
project between the Sandoz Family Foundation, the Lausanne Hotel School and Siemens. The hotel is eco friendly and uses
solar panels and rainwater collection. Inside it's got an ultra-modern look and the junior suites are all on the
lakeside with a private terrace. The hotel also has its own restaurant and bar. A pavilion on the lake runs 440
euros per night.
