Wellness
Evian has created a unique wellness concept available in only a few iconic destinations worldwide—Hotel Royal being one of them. Its recently refurbished 1,700 m² wellness space offers an immersive experience inspired by the natural life cycle of Evian mineral water. The water takes 15 years to journey through the Alps before emerging pure and clear at the surface. This process reflects its celestial origins—rain and snowfall—and perfect mineral balance, culminating in a precious reservoir of vitality. Spa treatments at Hotel Royal are designed to echo this journey, promising to deliver the rejuvenating benefits of the mountains to your body and mind.
Spa facilities include 14 treatment rooms, relaxation lounge, 2 heated pools (indoor and outdoor), hot tub, sauna, steam room, cold plunge and a snow cave. There is also a beauty, nail and hair salon. A highlight is the hydro circuit, an 80 m² outdoor hot tub kept at a constant 33°C. Each element of the circuit is thoughtfully designed to promote physical wellness—helping release tension, deeply relax muscles, and encourage mindfulness.
If you wish to move and exercise there is a fitness room, weight training and cardio training, 4 tennis courts and 2 padel courts, multi sport field, golf simulator and Evian resort golf club & academy certified Leadbetter. Water activities on Lake Geneva include kayaking, water skiing, fishing, and boating. During winter, a ski shop is available on-site, and our Sport & Culture team is here to help with equipment, lessons, and planning your next adventure.
