Traveling sometimes burns us down. Instead of enjoying the stunning scenery or engaging in a conversation with locals, all we want to do next is to get off the road and immediately head home. It usually happens when we get tired from a long uncomfortable trip or not getting enough sleep due to a cramped bed. To avoid travel burnout, there are several hotels that aside from impressive room accommodation and excellent service, also offer wellness and spa centers.
