I spent four hours here on a Sunday afternoon. It's a great spa with lots of options. Inside there is a locker area with crazy doors in the changing rooms. I kept getting lost because you have to go through the changing rooms to get to the locker area. It also seemed to be co-ed/clothing optional. There are several pools... More

Not a bad word could be said about this amazing heated paradise, apart from everything is written in GERMAN but I guess that should be expected considering we were in the middle of Germany. The inside main pool offer a range of experiences from a large heated pool that you can swim outside to a whirlpool and spa, water jets... More

What a fantastic place!!! My boyfriend and I stumbled across this spa whilst on our way to the skyride across the Rhein (which was sadly closed due to the season), we saw a group of people outside in a swimming pool in the middle of february and thought it was definitely worth a look!! Of course we didn't have our... More

This place is GREAT! Could have used some more directions on how to use the over-engineered lock system on the lockers, and the over-engineered walls and locker system in general, and a heads up that I needed to rent towels on the front end, AND that one is not allowed to wear swimming trunks in the saunas......All THAT being said,...

This spa was absolutely fantastic. My girlfriend and I for 84 euros for both of us did the 'enjoy your time' package. This consisted of a back massage each and 4 hrs in the spa area. There was so much to do, my favourite being the floating pool with underwater music. The outisde pool, even in december, was steaming warm... More

We have been to this spa many times over the last 8 years and I wish they had places of this quality in the UK. They have 3 outdoor log cabin saunas of different types, several indoor ones, as well as steam rooms, various pools and a mineral bath. There are plenty of loungers to relax on and a few... More

We visited twice in our 4 day stay in Cologne and had a lovely time; we stayed in the pool area as were a bit apprehensive about being naked in the sauna area but this was still good value and we spent around 2 hours there. Lots of different areas with warm-hot water and an outside pool with jacuzzi which... More

We have visited other thermal spas in Europe and basically knew what to expect. If you do have an issue with nudity you can still enjoy yourself at the indoor and outdoor family pools and hot tubs. The sauna wa great, especially the outdoor sauna "village". Check the website, very informative.

we visited the spa, for a comfortable evening and we had one. my girlfriend and I enjoyed the bubble bath and the turbo-jet pool the most. the sauna's were nice, but nothing special. And of course, don't forget that the germans are in any way squeamish about full-frontal nudity. you are asked to wear clothes in the swimmingpool area, be... More

We were on limited time on our visit to this spa but we had the most enjoyable evening mainly using the various swimming pools & the steam rooms. It was well organised, spotlessly clean, & very relaxing. There are more areas to enjoy either wearing swimwear or not, depending on how you feel. The water is not chlorinated which makes... More
