Palace Merano was the first medical spa in Italy. It opened in 1906 and occupies a striking Art Nouveau building in the heart of Merano, South Tyrol. Henri Chenot developed his famous detox protocols here over two decades before moving on to build his own facilities in Switzerland. Today, Palace Merano follows its own Revital® Method under the scientific direction of Dr. Massimiliano Mayrhofer. The approach combines functional medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and bioenergetics.

The 6,000 sqm Revital Center houses a biological analysis laboratory, scanning equipment, and eight specialized treatment departments. Blood work results typically come back the same day. A daily schedule on the Detox program includes hydro-aromatherapy baths, phyto-mud body wraps, and deep-tissue energy massages. Additional therapies like IV vitamin drips, ozone therapy, and acupuncture are prescribed based on individual lab results.

The property has 99 rooms across the main palace building and a castle wing. Expect a medical stay with structured daily schedules and proper clinical oversight. This is a results-driven destination, not a pampering spa holiday. Palace Merano was recognized by Condé Nast Traveller and The Luxury Spa Edit in both 2025 and 2026.

What is the Revital® Method at Palace Merano?

The Revital® Method evolved from the detox protocols that Henri Chenot developed at Palace Merano over more than twenty years. After Chenot moved on to establish his own clinics, Palace Merano continued refining the approach. Dr. Massimiliano Mayrhofer now leads the scientific direction.

The method draws on three medical traditions. Functional medicine provides the diagnostic foundation through blood panels, bio-impedance analysis, and biological marker screening. Traditional Chinese Medicine informs the bioenergetic treatments, including acupuncture and energy-based bodywork. Western medicine covers targeted interventions such as IV vitamin therapy and ozone therapy.

Each stay begins with a medical consultation and laboratory analysis. Results shape a personalized treatment schedule that typically includes 4 to 6 treatments per day. Core therapies include hydro-aromatherapy (jet-massage baths with essential oils), phyto-mud body wraps made with microalgae and white clay, and deep-tissue energy massages rooted in TCM principles.

What do you eat during your stay at Palace Merano?

All meals follow the Revital nutrition protocol, adapted to each guest's program. For Detox & Longevity, the diet is low-calorie, plant-based, and designed to support toxin elimination. Portions are intentionally small. The Sport-focused programs receive larger, more calorie-dense meals suited to recovery and performance.

Palace Merano offers three nutrition tracks. Palace Detox® Nutrition is a fasting-mimicking approach at roughly 800 to 1,000 calories per day. Palace Biolight® Nutrition provides a lighter, less restrictive alternative. Palace Sport® Nutrition delivers higher protein and energy for athletes and physically active guests.

No alcohol is served anywhere on the property. The Tea Lounge offers herbal infusions and mocktails instead. Despite the dietary restrictions, the kitchen consistently earns praise for making plant-based detox food genuinely satisfying.

What are the facilities like at Palace Merano?

The building dates from 1906 and mixes Art Nouveau architecture with modern medical infrastructure. Recent renovations began in 2020 with the Rooftop Suites, continued in 2023 with the spa, and added the Relax & Balance department in 2024. The Panoramic Suite, designed by Michel Jouannet, opened in 2025.

The 6,000 sqm Revital Center occupies the upper floors. It houses the biological analysis lab, a body scanner, consulting rooms, hydro-colon therapy suites, acupuncture rooms, osteopathy, and the bioenergetic treatment department. The spa level features indoor and outdoor pools, saunas, cold plunges, a hammam, and a beauty department offering regenerative medical aesthetics.

Palace Merano has 99 rooms in total, split between the main building and a castle wing. The grounds include a private park and garden. Fitness facilities feature a gym and a Sport Recovery Lab equipped with advanced rehabilitation technology. Palace Merano also has its own internal lab, so that blood test results come in less than 2 hours.
