Fabulous day out, my sister and I arrived at 11am no queue, we departed at 5.30pm We had a locker and I did take my handbag and just placed it on the glass cabinets or hanging rails near where we was using each spa. We are in the restaurant and sat outside. It was a lovely experience.
Great place with lot of turists. Easy to use but a bit exspencuve.
We did the baths after doing the beer spa. A rather nice and very large place that offers many different spaces. Unfortunately, we only stayed there for an hour for personal reasons. One big regret: the price.... Indeed, only one price is offered (day pass). In summary, the price is fair if you plan to spend at least half a day there. For an hour or two, it is much too high.
Terrible policy and sauna regulation by the facility. WORST public sauna and thermal bath place EVER I've been too. I've been to a lot of sauna's and relaxing places, this place is everything but a place to chill. Next to that, the facilities are awful in terms of hygiëne and service. I name a few: - NOBODY was using a towel whilst it was obligated. Not a single staff worker walking around was even attempting to regulate this - it had signs with 'please silence' everywhere, but nobody was respecting this, even not inside sauna's. Terrible. It was extremely loud and people shouting all over the place everywhere - unfriendly staff that has no idea where to guide people (nobody knows where to get fresh water) - there is no clean water to drink, all taps are calcificated so much, even around the pools and inside the beautiful decorated pools, everything is extremely calcificated and dirty. - All sauna's where not at all temperature regulated. Sauna's of 50-55° where 75° inside, none of them where kept at temperature. - all sauna's where extremely humid. They're supposed to be dry. - in a big sink where you grab ice, staff workers allowed visitors to store and cool big pepsi bottles into. You are supposed to grab this ice for cooling the body, not as a freezer for random drinks/alcohol... - salt inhalation chambers, aroma sauna's, ... None of the special sauna's where different from others. I can go on with things I noticed. But this is far below average. And its extremely overpriced. 40€ for this is a scam for my money.
Very crowded and it’s hard to get a place to sit. It was fun people watching though. The pools did feel good.
Nothing special. Very old pools
Nice place with great potential but super crowded and with not very clean water. Not recommended for tourists in peak season
Nice time, exciting old building, several swimming pools both inside and out. Quite full, recommend coming earlier to get sunbeds, bring a slipper and towels. We bought base tickets, were twice about 4-5 hours each time. Nice to have a good time by the water when it is 30-40 degrees outside. Can buy both food and drink inside, or bring something. Pretty old wardrobe, but neat.
A great place to relax and enjoy the 3 pools. The adventure pool was the best. I purchased a ticket with a cabin to change and keep your belongings. I would definitely go again. The toilets by the cabins was out of order, so I had to find another area where only one toilet worked.
Spent a few hours on a Sunday morning. We got there just after 9 so had no problem with finding a sunbed. Enjoyed the outdoor pools & used some of the indoor pools when it got too hot outside. Food & drink very limited & expensive but overall I'm pleased we went.
