    The natural and bewitching beauty of Karelia is the hallmark of this small republic, where not only Russians, but also guests from abroad began to come to spend their holidays. There are countries where tourists love to relax in the summer, there are those where it is best to visit in the winter, and hotels in Karelia - on the banks of a lake, river or in the forest - offer high-quality service and unforgettable experiences at all times of the year.

    SPA holiday

    Today, all over the world there is a passion for recreation, combining activity with healing, caring and relaxing procedures. In modern society, there is a tendency to lead a healthy lifestyle and take care of your appearance in order to remain young and active for as long as possible.

    Thanks to this, spa hotels are becoming increasingly popular in the tourism industry. Karelia has a lot to offer its guests. Judging by the reviews that people leave about these places, the choice here is made not only by the level of service and price, but also by location - on the shore of a lake or river, in the forest or in a nice, quiet village.

    Today, many hotels are equipped with modern diagnostic and therapeutic equipment, and their staff develops preventive programs that ensure cleansing, restoration and strengthening of the body within a few days.

    It is not without reason that enterprising tour operators offer wellness tours from 3 to 7 days to SPA hotels in Karelia. The combination of affordable prices with quality service, clean air, pristine nature and a pleasant climate make this destination increasingly popular among lovers of a healthy lifestyle.

    Hotel Karelia

    Petrozavodsk is one of the most popular trends for holidays in Karelia. Situated on the shore of a lake, it is the best option for those who like to enjoy nature without losing sight of civilization.

    The city is surrounded by lakes Lamba, Logmozero, Denna and others, on the shores of which you can spend time with health benefits. Vacationers and those who come here specifically to recuperate and improve their health are very well aware of “Karelia” - a 4* SPA hotel.

    The hotel offers modern, comfortable rooms with views of Lake Onega. The apartments are decorated in light colors using natural wood.

    Among the wellness treatments among hotel visitors, the most popular are the SPA center programs:

    • therapeutic and relaxing massages;
    • hydromassage baths;
    • solarium;
    • sauna and Turkish bath.

    Not all spa hotels in Karelia have a swimming pool. This health complex is indoor and open year-round. People come here to relax with children, for whom there are playgrounds and entertainment with Russian-speaking animators. Fans of active recreation can enjoy walking tours of the city's historical and cultural sites, a fitness room and water sports.

    The first Russian resort

    The first health resort in Russia was the Marcial Waters sanatorium, founded by order of Peter 1 in 1719, who himself repeatedly came to these regions for treatment, and with his “light” hand many noble persons of the country began to visit these places.

    These places gained real popularity only in Soviet times, when modern buildings were built, the chemical and medicinal properties of the water in the source were fully studied, and health programs were developed for various types of diseases.

    Located in a quiet, beautiful place in a pine forest, in close proximity to a unique nature reserve surrounded by lakes, the sanatorium is a balneological resort, well known in Europe.

    Not all SPA hotels in Karelia in the forest can offer the same level of comfort and service as in the Marcial Waters sanatorium.

    Health programs of the sanatorium

    The rich experience gained by more than one generation of physicians working in Marcial Waters has allowed them to create numerous health-improving complexes of services aimed at both the treatment and rehabilitation of diseases and their prevention.

    Programs designed for 3-7 days are very popular:

    • “Relax” - relieving tension with the help of special procedures: herbal and aromatherapy, light therapy, contrast baths and swimming pool, massage of the collar area, SPA capsule, pearl baths with lavender and herbal teas.
    • The Silhouette program will help in 6 days to rid the body of 3-4 kg, toxins and waste and normalize metabolic processes. The procedures include: intestinal lavage and Charcot shower, underwater massage, contrast baths and infrared sauna, pneumatic massage of the hips, buttocks and waist.
    • A weekend tour allows guests to quickly restore their working capacity, relieve stress and have a great rest. The program includes: a visit to the swimming pool, circular shower, solarium and gym, salt chamber and infrared sauna, SPA capsule and examination by a doctor.

    Longer programs are designed to work with diseases such as diabetes (ozone therapy course “Alternative”), neuritis and radiculitis (mud therapy), cardiovascular system, bronchial asthma and much more.

    Like many spa hotels in Karelia, this sanatorium has developed cosmetology programs aimed at correcting and treating the skin: a course of mesotherapy, plasma lifting, biorevitalization. Among the procedures are paraffin therapy, vertical solarium and infrared saunas, waxing and others.

    In addition to the above services, food and leisure activities are well organized here. Guests can sign up for numerous excursions, choosing what they prefer - rafting, visiting the Kivach waterfall or the Ruskeala mountain park, the extinct Girvas volcano or the Three Bears zoo complex. Not all spa hotels in Karelia can boast such extensive health and entertainment programs. Separate treatment courses have been developed for children, so families, sometimes consisting of representatives of several generations, come here.

    Sanatorium "Palaces"

    If you choose hotels in Karelia on the shore of a lake (inexpensive) for relaxation and wellness, then “Palaces”, also located on Martialnye Vody, will be optimal in terms of price - quality and quantity of services. This is what those who vacationed here write in their reviews.

    The sanatorium is comfortably located in the forest near two picturesque lakes - Verkhnyaya Lamba and Gabozero. Guests can expect 58 fully equipped and comfortable rooms, friendly staff, homemade healthy meals and a wellness center.

    In the center's program:

    • Course “Movement without pain”.
    • "Improving the digestive tract."
    • Course "Healthy heart and blood vessels."
    • Anti-stress program.
    • Courses “Cleansing” and “Beauty and Health”.
    • “Health program for children from 2 to 14 years old.”

    Guests have at their disposal doctors, a swimming pool, various types of saunas, massage rooms, pearl baths, walking and cycling trips and much more.

    Hotel "13 chairs"

    If you choose hotels in Karelia with a swimming pool (photo below), then the small and cozy place “13 chairs” in the very center of Petrozavodsk is an opportunity to fully relax without moving away from civilization.

    Here guests will find 12 classic-style rooms, an indoor pool, hot tubs, a sauna, massage rooms, a children's playground and friendly staff. Right on site you can rent bicycles for walking to the lakes near Petrozavodsk.

    According to reviews from vacationers, the 13 Chairs hotel is distinguished by its low prices and the provision of a quiet family holiday in the center of a big city. An important fact is the possibility of staying with pets (free for animals), which is rare among 4-star hotels.

    Bungalow SPA

    Secluded holidays have become very popular among tourists, providing the opportunity to both relax and improve their health, as well as fish to their heart’s content in peace and quiet. “Bungalow SPA” is a country house on the shores of Lake Ladoga, providing 2 equipped rooms with private facilities, a shared kitchen and necessary household appliances.

    Vacationers can enjoy a SPA center with a bath complex, hiking and horseback riding, fishing, a massage room, a beach and evening entertainment programs in complete comfort with all the benefits of civilization - television and the Internet.

    As tourists note, “Bungalow SPA” is one of the most inexpensive types of vacation where you can come with the whole family, even taking your pets.

    All inclusive

    Although seasoned tourists will say that the pool (all inclusive) does not meet the generally accepted standards that meet this criterion, holidays here have not become less popular. Yes, local hotels do not have free alcohol, 3 buffet meals a day and other privileges, but most of the services included in the price of the tour are wellness programs, visits to the pool, sauna, massage therapist, and more.

    The vacation itself in Karelia is more aimed at improving the health of the whole family by visiting interesting excursions or active recreation.

    Hotel "Severnaya"

    A holiday in a hotel equipped with a spa center with a wide range of services, a gym and a sauna will be an excellent way to return to activity and rejuvenate.

    While relaxing in one of the 104 comfortable rooms with all the amenities of the Severnaya Hotel, guests can undergo health and beauty treatments and get an even, beautiful tan in the solarium without leaving the hotel. According to reviews from vacationers, this is the best offer for a comfortable holiday in the city. Average rating - 8.3 out of 10.

    Holidays in Karelia in winter

    Winter Karelia is just as popular as summer Karelia. This is evidenced by numerous reviews from enthusiastic guests of the republic.

    Here at this time of year, both those who are used to spending every day actively and those who prefer peace and quiet feel great. Camp sites, sanatoriums and hotels in Karelia in winter offer:

    • ice fishing;
    • skiing;
    • snowmobiling;
    • weekend tours to Kizhi, with an unfreezing waterfall and to the island of Valaam;
    • a trip to the Marble Canyon in "Ruskeala";
    • dog sledding or skiing;
    • wellness in numerous spa hotels or sanatoriums.

    This is not all that this small republic offers. Its most important asset is not hotels and tourist centers, but ecologically clean nature, beautiful at any time of the year.

    Beauty and health tours

    This type of recreation has become the most popular among people of any age and gender who are tired of big cities and stress. Every resident of Russia can afford 2-3 days to restore their strength and beauty; fortunately, these tours are inexpensive, but they restore your performance and radiant appearance.

    Equipped with modern equipment, SPA hotels in Karelia easily compete with European ones in the number of procedures, quality and price of services.
