July 2010 - Stegersbach, Austria, idyllically situated in the countryside of South Burgenland, provides the perfect setting for Dortmund`s BV Borussia football team and their coaches to prepare for a successful 2010/2011 season. Last week the team bus arrived at this year`s chosen retreat, the Balance Resort Stegersbach. This protel customer offers the ideal backdrop for recovering from the tough and strenuous practice of the day.

 

There were no delays in Borussia`s training schedule when Dortmund`s team arrived at the Balance Resort Stegersbach. It was head coach Jürgen Klopp`s express wish for the room distribution to be decided by lots. Thus, the first training session took place only a few hours after check-in. This marked the kick-off to an intensive and hot preparation phase, not only literally due to the sweltering temperatures, but also in preparation for the upcoming three matches in this year`s season starting in the middle of August.

Intensive workouts and tough practice sessions will be highly taxing, both physically and mentally for all players. Those, who do not have photo sessions after practice, thus enjoy the spacious spa area of the Balance Resort to regenerate and relax. The 2,600 sqm Balance Spa, available exclusively to hotel guests, offers the utmost wellness pleasure. Recovery, regeneration & relaxation are the key concepts of the exclusive Balance Spa, which include over 10,000 sqm garden terraces. The perfect combination of holistic treatments and individual service offered by the Balance Resort was officially recognised by the Relax Guide 2010, which awarded the resort the highest score of 20 points and four lilies.

The multi-award-winning five-star Balance Resort Stegersbach is nestled in the undulating countryside of South Burgenland on a sunny hillside, directly above the Stegersbach Thermal Spa. The newly developed golfing and spa region of Stegersbach brought a new dimension to the concept of wellness in recent years. This lifestyle hotel, with its harmonious and extraordinary design and its unique mix of natural beauty and contemporary charm, is one of Austria`s healthiest and sunniest locations and also a perfect destination for a golf vacation in Austria. Tee-off for the 50-hole Golfschaukel Stegersbach Lafnitztal course is only 200m from the hotel entrance and the golf-carts are available right outside the hotel.
