The spa centre at the Grand Hotel Veliko Tarnovo, featuring mineralized water, spans 2,000 square meters. The recently renovated hotel has re-established itself as an attractive venue for congress tourism, international events, team-building activities, and individual visits. Originally constructed between 1967 and 1981, the hotel underwent a complete renovation in 2025, transforming its interior into a modern, elegant space while retaining its distinctive architecture.
The modern spa complex is equipped with an indoor swimming pool, a children’s pool, and three aquatonic pools, positioning the hotel as a desirable destination for event organizers. Services offered include classic and aroma steam baths, infrared, Finnish, and Himalayan cedar saunas, a hammam, and a salt room. Additional amenities include a spa capsule, a salt and flotation capsule, an adventure shower, and a Vichy shower.
Guests can also utilize five treatment rooms, a relaxation zone with heated loungers, a beach area, and a fresh bar with panoramic terrace views. The pool water is mineralized with salts and purified using ozone filters, ensuring the aquatonic water is non-irritating and hydrating. A notable feature is the flotation capsule, which utilizes high concentrations of magnesium salts for deep relaxation and skin absorption, aiding in the relief of various muscular and joint conditions.
Given its location on the banks of the Yantra River in the city centre of Tarnovo, the hotel has secured plans to develop the riverside into a pedestrian zone. This includes constructing a new outdoor infinity pool and revitalizing a daytime bar overlooking the Asenevtsi Monument and the Art Gallery. Furthermore, BTA highlights its coverage of over 200 certified spa, wellness, and medical spa centres in Bulgaria through its “BG SPA: Salus per aquam, Health Through Water” feature, in connection with the HEALTHXCHANGE SUMMIT in 2026.
