The Vosges massif straddles Alsace and Lorraine. It covers four départements: Meurthe-et-Moselle, Moselle, Vosges, Haut-Rhin and Bas-Rhin.

The Vosges offers a wide range of spa facilities. The choice of establishment will therefore depend on your requirements and those of the travellers accompanying you.
For travellers who need to get back to basics, the Vosges has 4 spa towns: Vittel, Contrexéville, Plombières-les-Bains and Bains-les-Bains. By booking a day or more in one of these towns, you can enjoy the usual spa services (hammam, jacuzzi and sauna), as well as swimming pools and treatments using thermal water, known for its healing properties. Once you've relaxed, round off your getaway with a visit to Vittel, for example, to discover its Art Deco heritage, or Contrexéville, for its colourful fountains.
Green-loving travellers, opt for a spa hotel in the Vosges forest for a moment of calm and serenity. Spend a moment between the relaxation area and the Nordic sauna, or take advantage of the expert treatments offered by the masseurs. If you're on holiday in the Vosges, head back to your room for a truly restful night. The next day, you'll already be on the spot to explore the surrounding area... or get back to relaxing at the spa!
