When the weekend belongs to your own appearance: two nights at the Posthotel Walhalla, which stands at the foot of the classicist Walhalla temple in Donaustauf, a stone's throw from the Danube and around 15 minutes' drive east of the UNESCO World Heritage city of Regensburg. A four-star house with a sauna landscape, a steam bath and a fitness room that opens the view onto the historic town wall.
The beauty weekend bundles programme and backdrop: a 60-minute “Forster” facial treatment, a 30-minute massage and a 30-minute manicure, plus a gourmet breakfast, a four-course dinner menu and a Classic double room. Two days — enough calm to use the wellness and relaxation area between treatments, and enough appetite to drive into nearby Regensburg in the evening.
