The rooms vary in their amenities and predominantly feature carpeting, classic and elegant furnishings, and are bright, modern with plenty of wood elements and a comfortable atmosphere. Generally, you can choose between a forest-facing or south-facing room. The hotel creates a wonderful blend of wellness and Aktivhotel on the one hand, and family hotel on the other. For kids, there's the Sparrow Club, an indoor play area, and age-appropriate holiday programs led by the children's entertainment team.

 Tennis & Padel

Right next to the hotel, five outdoor tennis courts with sand-filled artificial turf available for your use. These courts can be used free of charge for stays of five nights or more. In winter or during bad weather, you can play on three courts at the nearby Höchenschwand Tennis Center. Tennis lessons range from individual and partner training to group lessons, as well as three-day and week-long courses. Special courses for kids and juniors are also offered. Two padel courts available in the sports arena directly at the hotel.

 Other sports activities

The hotel itself features a 70 m² ^fitness room equipped with numerous machines for your strength and endurance training. The panoramic windows and outdoor area are particularly appealing. In addition, the sports team offers a daily changing fitness program including aqua fitness, stretching, back exercises, Pilates, yoga, forest bathing, guided hikes, and other active sessions.

Speaking of being active: at the Vier Jahreszeiten Tennis Hotel on Lake Schluchsee, you can truly be active all year round, in addition to playing tennis: whether hiking, golfing, stand-up paddleboarding or cycling in the summer, or tobogganing, cross-country skiing or downhill skiing in the winter. Everything is either directly accessible from the hotel or within a very short distance.

 Wellness

The large indoor pool (28-29 degrees Celsius) is directly connected to the outdoor pool, which is open depending on weather conditions. Alternatively, you can enjoy the many massage jets in the panoramic whirlpool, which will make you "smooth" again for the next match.

The 4,000 m² ^wellness and spa area leaves nothing to be desired. It's no wonder the hotel has received awards and recommendations from various wellness hotel portals. Let's start with the sauna area: there you'll find two outdoor log cabin saunas, a Finnish sauna, a bio sauna, two steam rooms (one with color and sound effects), a Himalayan salt grotto, and a separate ladies' sauna. You can relax on the spacious relaxation gallery with comfortable loungers and double loungers – from there you have a breathtaking view of the Black Forest. When the weather is fine, the sun terraces invite you to linger and dream.

In the realm of beauty, the Beauty Pavilion offers every imaginable spa, wellness, and cosmetic treatment. From face to toe, there are massages, baths, and everything a spa lover could desire. From authentic Sri Lankan Ayurveda to natural cosmetics, you're truly spoiled for choice. Especially great for us TennisTraveller is the massage department with classic and specialized massages such as the Leg Wellness Treatment, a decongestive leg massage, or "In Balance," a 25-minute classic foot reflexology massage combined with a 25-minute partial body massage. Also highly recommended is the "Vita Veris" regeneration studio , where you can treat yourself to an energetic treatment such as an energetic back massage.

 Catering

Generally, when you book a room at the Vier Jahreszeiten tennis hotel on Lake Schluchsee, it includes a generous breakfast buffet. For an additional €48, you can add half-board, which includes a six-course dinner. We highly recommend this option. Alternatively, you can also order your preferred meal à la carte.

During the day, Café Gugelhupf offers delicious cakes from its own patisserie or light snacks. And for the night owls among you, the Karussellbar the perfect place to enjoy a nightcap.

Various museums, such as the Black Forest Ski Museum in Hinterzarten or the Hüsli Local History Museum, offer a unique perspective on the Black Forest. And for city enthusiasts, the beautiful city of Freiburg just a short distance away. The Rothaus Brewery Experience, with its brewery tours, is also well worth a visit.
