Great day at thermal baths - inside and outside baths with different temperatures (the temperature is stated on each thermal bath.) There are also sauna’s here too. Very busy and we were unable to access sun longer as they were all full. There is cafe and refreshments hut which had reasonable prices. Unfortunately, the sandwich bar was closed but we were told to return in an hour but we used the cafe instead. Full day cost approximately £50 per person. We booked the small cabin to secure our items. Tip - bring a towel and suitable footwear for around the thermal baths. Great experience and worth going too.
Terrible!!!! I would not recommend visiting this spa, it’s overpriced, the main pool was out of action when we visited. The indoor pools are the same either end of the building which are in desperate need of some modifications, very old and in disrepair. The sauna we went in smelt old and very musty, needless to say we didn’t go in any of the others. We only stayed for about an hour, and that was enough.
Great to see but SO SO crowded. You could barely find a spot to hang your towel ever mind a chair. The baths were nice but think they should limit the amount they let in.
They made us purchase water shoes before entering because we didnt have any. Cost $37 to purchase. Then once inside we found out we could rent for only $12. The gift shop knew this and intentional had us purchase overpriced shoe's before we could enter. Not impressed. The place was fun but super crowded and not enough chairs to even sit down.
The baths were a one of a kind, unforgettable experience enjoyable for all ages. There was an assortment of pools and saunas available for use with varying temperatures and purposes, and when you go make sure to bring sunscreen, flip flops, and towels.
Easy to find and we discovered that it was easy to upgrade because we bought just general admission tickets. Having the VIP (middle level) was worth the extra money to have access to quieter areas.
They could not find our booking, after ten minutes of back and forth with various staff members we were allowed in, other than that good experience albeit some very over excited adults who where a bit loud but understandable as they are their to enjoy themselves too. I would go back
Very enjoyable excursion. Good number of different sized baths/pools to enjoy, both indoor & outdoor available to use. Opted for a cabin which was easy to use & knowing our belongings were safe whilst using the baths.
Book ahead as there are queues and max capacity. we booked the little cabin changing room and this is definitely worth the extra, all belonging stored away safe and lots of room and privacy to change. We went in December and it was a great day of relaxing. Lots of other things to do in that area... ice skating, the balloon and Christmas markets.
Fine, great water. Crowds weren't too bad. Good to travel from the city by taxi (€10). The building could use a refurbishment, I think this, given the income €60 pp should be possible. Otherwise fine. Located in a beautiful location
