It is a nice and clean place. Too few pools for my taste and they can be crowded, but you can easily spend 3-4 hours especially if you are in company. They have sauna programs that might be fun but looking on the windows I didn't have the urge to sit with a hundred sweating people.

I like that they are open til late at night.

Some people don't behave entirely appropriately but nothing serious. Not super kid friendly though (and I don't mean it because people are naked).

The is a small restaurant, which serves food at a reasonable price, but their 'terrace' is small, unfortunately only 3-4 tables and smoking is allowed, so not much use for the non smokers.

Excelent. Lot of respect to nudity, and interactive shows included.

A nice spa package in one building. The restaurant was good and only speaking English was a bit of an issue but not insurmountable. A great way to spend a few hours.

Tried to go in for a massage today. No one was interested in helping us at all. The young man at the desk sent us to the front, and then they sent us to the back. When we got back to the desk the young man disappeared and never came back to help us. We waited what seemed like forever (15-20min) and we finally left. Very disappointed in their business practices.

We had the perfect afternoon at the baths and sauna. There are a lot of options and saunas at different temperatures, it is spacious and is extremely clean. They also offer sauna infusions (aufguss) multiple times a day. Big thanks to a lovely employee (think his name is Markus) for his amazing aufguss experience, offering us salts for the steambaths (which we hadn't experienced before) and sharing some recommendations in Karlsruhe. It made our day :) Really looking forward to coming back!

Since the renovations the place is really looking great. The large sauna is quite nice, and the 3 different mineral baths are a welcome addition. Some days there is also a sound and visual experience in the old cupola of the building. Pretty cool place.

I had a wonderful experience here. The staff was incredibly helpful and answered all of my initial questions, robe rental, explanation of how things work. I am very thankful that they used English with me as my German is pitiful. I showed up with no preparation, not even a towel. It’s easy to rent a towel and robe. Lockers are provided free to use.

This is a nude facility yet I witnessed a tourist couple angrily address a staff member because they wanted to remain in bathing suits…. I was impressed with how polite the attendant was in that situation! If you’re planning on visiting, please understand the rules so that your angry misunderstandings don’t disrupt those of us who are enjoying the health and peace of this spa. On that note, a word of caution, if you are opposed to nudity, this spa may still expose you to see nudity even in the areas allowing clothing. Not at any time did I feel that my nude self was anything other than welcomed and ordinary to the attendants or attendees, male or female. Honestly, it was the angry, snarling and fully clothed woman who made me feel very uncomfortable.

The cold pool to hot sauna is my favorite spa experience and the temperature was set perfectly.

Update: downgraded to 1 star!
Staff politely asked to delete photos (with no people) from google maps. You don’t have there any sign or regulations that making photos is prohibited. Again, no people, no GDPR violation. How disappointing and inappropriate to hide real view of what you offer.

Original review:
Disappointing experience.
You need to consider an accepted level of nudity ..even on ladies day there are some men (staff) and you don’t feel comfortable. So it’s not pure ladies day at all.

Swimming pool and sauna areas are interconnected, so naked people are everywhere, it’s really up to you what you can accept.
Half of the main swimming pool is always busy with aqua courses for babies or other groups, so it’s not quite and calm at all. Shower cabins are separated, but half open. Shower at the sauna area is shared. Lots of facilities for babies, even baby sauna.

Try to visit it from Tuesday to Thursday in the morning when you get 2h for 8.5€ what is quite affordable to get to know this place. Wednesday is ladies’ day observed by staff (men).

Parking nearby at the Kongresszentrum garage. Don’t forget to tick your parking ticket when you leave the thermes to pay the reduced rate.

Not recommended. I won’t come back. There are better places with better facilities in the surroundings.
