My wife and I went on one of the fully mixed days. The changing rooms show signs for men and women in both changing areas. We opted for the ladies side. None of the stations were too crowded. We really enjoyed it. The rooms are all well maintained and clean. The signature pools are in beautiful and spacious rooms. The... more

This place is lovely :) Not to be missed. I went based on the sole fact that the hotel issued a voucher nullifying entrance fees to this place (yea I'm cheap). Enjoy having all the sweat in your pores drained out in the steam room, then get blasted with the biggest showers ever conceived by man - Even King Kong's... more

We visited when my wife was about 5 months pregnant, which the friendly cashier picked up on and advised her not to have the soap brush massage. We had checked with our doctor and with the Friedrichsbad in advance if the other stages were ok for a pregnant woman, both said it's fine as long as you don't get too... more

I spent two days in Baden-Baden, and was recommended the baths by a friend and the person at my hotel desk. I was initially nervous about the nudity issue in the Friedrichsbad Roman-Irish bath, but as the other reviewers have said, this turns into a non-issue within a minute. The front desk person at the entrance was helpful, and answered... more

Since the other reviews have already described the Friedrichsbad experience in much detail, I'd just like to add sth I haven't found there: What age group you're going to meet seems to depend on what time of the day you go there. The youngish couples that were described as being the most prevalent seem to go more on the evening.... more

My first time in Friedrichsbad, although I've been many a time at Caracalla (I live in Strasburg). Thanks to the reviews on this site I knew what to do. I went there on a Saturday evening when the place is fully co-ed. A bit odd to fully undress in the locker, get out, store your clothes and then walk alone... more

First trip to the Friedrichsbad - went on a Sunday which is the day it is mixed sex throughout, and was directed to the right-side changing area, which I understand is usually the female side. Consequently my first experience was standing completely naked next to a fully-clothed female attendant who described the layout of the place to me in some... more

Just returned from a 10 day whirlwind trip to Germany with my significant other. Part of the trip included a two night stay in Baden-Baden and a visit on Sunday to the Roman -Irish spa. I mention Sunday because this is the day when the spa allows male/female couples to be together through the entire spa facility. Other writers have... more

I decided to give the Friedrichsbad a try after seeing it in a Rick Steves guidebook and on his PBS show. The guidebook is very specific about the steps involved in going through the bath. Step one was exit the locker naked. If Rick hadn't explained that part, I would have been very lost as there are no directions to... more
