Spa Hotel Hissar has been awarded the title of Best 4-star SPA hotel in the Balkans for 2025 by the Balkan Alliance of Hotel Associations (BAHA), the hotel announced.

The award is a testament to the dedication of the entire team as well as the trust of the guests, Nelina Djoreva from the hotel’s management team told BTA.

Among the wide range of preventive and therapeutic procedures offered at the hotel’s SPA center is hyperbaric oxygen therapy in a modern four-seat chamber. During the sessions, patients breathe 100% oxygen under high pressure of up to three atmospheres, which has an antimicrobial effect, regulates the body’s functional and metabolic activity, and accelerates recovery.

The SPA center team includes qualified kinesiotherapists, rehabilitation specialists, nurses, massage therapists, cosmeticians, and hydrotherapy specialists, ensuring professional service and an individualized approach to each guest, Djoreva emphasized.

The SPA center is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities for treatment, wellness, and balneotherapy. Guests can use an infrared sauna, Roman bath, ice room, Kneipp path, experience showers, shock showers, a small pool with warm mineral water, and heated loungers. A variety of massages with both relaxing and therapeutic effects are also available. In addition, the hotel offers a relaxation zone with a Finnish sauna and steam bath located near the indoor swimming pool.

The mineral water in the town of Hisarya is widely known for its proven healing properties. It is low-mineralized, colorless, odorless, and has a pleasant taste, making it suitable for both drinking therapy and external use, Djoreva said. It is considered beneficial in the prevention and treatment of various conditions, including kidney and urological diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, gallstone disease, musculoskeletal conditions, gynecological issues, metabolic disorders, and chronic intoxications.

Spa Hotel Hissar is described as a year-round destination. In addition to individual leisure and recovery guests, it is also a preferred venue for conferences, seminars, and corporate events. Most visitors are Bulgarian tourists, but the hotel also receives guests from abroad, including Israel, Russia, Romania, Germany, Turkey, Ukraine, Greece, the United States, and other countries.
