The average German spends about 3.5 hours a day looking at the cell phone! At least, that’s according to an online study by ARD/ZDF. And you? Just a quick check of the mails – then a quick look at Instagram and WhatsApp, quickly shopping for the birthday present for the girlfriend and streaming the latest Netflix series in the evening. Add to that the time spent working on the screen, video conferencing, etc., and there’s always something ringing and vibrating somewhere. No wonder we find it so difficult to simply switch off. Are you also ‘always on’ and long for a place of absolute tranquility from the digital madness? You can really ‘switch off’ and detox at these wonderful Green Pearls partner hotels.

Deep relaxation in Piedmont

Nature all around you! With the eco-village Sagna Rotonda, the owners Teresina & Giovanni have created a place where the cell phone quickly ceases to play a role. As soon as you reach the lovingly and sustainably restored vacation village in the Piedmont Maira Valley, you are in midst of nature with rugged rock faces, waterfalls and wide meadows. Arrive, let go, relax. In the 13 self-catering vacation homes at an altitude of 1,644 m you enjoy absolute peace. What could be more beautiful than to look down into the valley and the surrounding mountains in the morning while having your first coffee and to plan your day without rushing. There is a lot to explore in the Maira Valley: Hiking tours and mountain bike tours or beginners and advanced, you sure will find what is best for you. Or maybe you just want to relax? Book the small wellness area in the stone vault of the former stable building for a private sauna session and relax in the rest area with stone pine scent, relaxing music and colored light.

Holistic Life in Balderschwang

Digital Detox in Germany – that’s what you’ll find at the HUBERTUS Mountain Refugio Allgäu in the Bavarian enclave of Balderschwang. In the past, there wasn’t even a pass road or a path to the valley; the place could only be reached via Austria. Today a direct connection exists, but the HUBERTUS Mountain Refugio Allgäu is still a perfect retreat for those seeking rest and relaxation. Immerse into the world of traditional Chinese medicine in the multi-award-winning spa and wellness area and find your inner balance with an Ayurvedic massage or refuel your batteries with a yoga or QiGong session. The HUBERTUS Mountain Refugio Allgäu makes you “want to live” – without your cell phone

Oases of peace in Paris

Not everyone needs nature to unwind. Why not escape to Paris and spend time in one of the many extraordinary exhibitions, stroll along the Seine or indulge in the French way of life in a restaurant? Paris not offers only a bustling life, but also enchanting places to relax. A special oasis of calm in the middle of the vibrant city is the Hôtel le Pavillon. As soon as you enter the green courtyard, the hustle and bustle and noise of the city are forgotten. With its historic charm and holistic sustainable design concept, the hotel located in a former monastery offers you a very special atmosphere for an inspiring visit to the French capital. Le Pavillon is the first hotel in France to offer rooms without annoying electromagnetic radiations.

Treat yourself to the luxury of total deceleration. The Villagio Sagna Rotonda, the HUBERTUS Alpin Lodge & Spa and the Hôtel le Pavillon await you for the perfect digital detox. This way you can relax and get back to everyday life.
