    Also ich weiß nicht was das Brummeln mancher Bewerter hier soll!!!!!!! Das Bad ist komplett auf der richtigen Temperatur. Auch das Wasser ist überall Klasse auch oben auf dem Dach. Und das überall Textilfrei ist und einfach Top. Genauso war auch das Personal. Freundlich und Aufmerksam. Wir kommen bald möglichst wieder.

    So etwas schönes habe ich noch nie gesehen 🫶🏻. Wem textilfreies Baden und Saunieren nichts aus macht, hat hier eine tolle Zeit 🙏. Mitarbeiter waren alle sehr nett und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die vielen kleinen separaten Bäden mit der Vielfalt, echt einzigartig ♥️. Preis/Leistung ist auch Top. Am besten man sucht sich ein Hotel und verbringt ein Wochenende dort. Wir hatten es als Tagesausflug, was auch sehr schön war. Angebote Speissen sind völlig ausreichend und wie schon erwähnt, das Personal ist super nett. Sehr gerne wieder ♥️

    Well worth a visit… Variety of pools and saunas to choose from with different temps - we were a bit shy going naked at first, especially as not many people seem to on the ground floor. But once we made our way up to the saunas and roof pool (which were textile free only) we felt a lot more comfortable! We went “cold turkey” so to speak, but we noticed fellow spa goers starting off in their swimsuits and then going back to changing rooms to leave them behind - so don’t feel like you have to commit one way or the other. Beautiful building and 3 hours was perfect for us! The only downside was the receptionist eye-rolled us when we asked if she spoke English, and others have noted they come across rude towards English speakers. Such a shame, but it didn’t ruin the experience… Would definitely come again!

    The most beautiful oriental, Roman spa ❣️ Can not recommend it enough. But the entrance is forbidden for children up to 12 years of age. Also, the pool and sauna are fkk.

    A very beautiful location and a beautiful building. The architecture is wonderful inside. It is an historic place. What I didn't like was the pools and the water. The water was not warm enough for me. 34 mainly and 36-38 degrees C in one single boring pool. We entered after 6 o'clock pm and paid tickets without sauna and the lady at the counter indicated us a certain area at the ground floor we were alowed to go but it was a confusing experience seeing that most of the people were completely naked everywhere. Because of the late hour we payed 25 euros/2 adults. The parking was free of charge for 3 hours. But they told us that after 3 hours the price is 9 euro/hour. If so, it is very expensive! The orientation signs and information were not very heplful. I know I will never go there again. I felt cold most of the time.

    Great place, nice interior in the bath area and good saunas. Though being a Finnish person, the “Finnish” sauna isn’t very original 😂 we throw the water on the stove ourselves and sauna is the one place where Finn’s will talk freely to strangers, we also rarely use scents in the water.. but anyhow, I also enjoy the German sauna culture. Here the aufguss was quite gentle, I like it a bit more aggressive and with more personality and spirit. In other spas it’s also nice that the ceremony happens in different saunas at different times, here it was apparently only in this big “Finnish” sauna. Overall a good experience, one of my favorites so far.

    This place is just perfect in my opinion! The architecture is breathtaking. As a civil engineering professor, exploring the rooms to find the different pools and sauna rooms was by itself worth the visit for me… many pools with different temperatures! Multiple saunas from steam to aromatic and different temperatures! Special shout out to Mr. Müller for the fantastic job on the “Aufgüß” 👌 I will be coming back for sure 👍

    Very good. Amazing experience. Only not sure on the mineral content of the water, as there does not seem to be much residue on the walls. Parking is difficult. Park at one of the underground parkings and walk. If you're doing a tour of europe, please consider Bad Wildbad as a place to visit. It is worth the detour. The hairdryers are located after the changing rooms. Nb: This place is nudist.

    I went here on Tuesday. On that day it is possible to wear a swimming suite to the thermal. Entrance inside saunas is prohibited with swimming suite, but it is possible to take your own towel and cover yourself up. Overall, it was a nice first experience and on working days there are not too many people. The lights in the thermal on the panorama roof top are pinkish, and the view to the opposite funicular is incredible. After all, you can relax and don't mind anyone's and yourself nudity. Recommend to take a classic massage, the session is 25 minutes and it was good value for the money.

    Super schöne Therme! Sehr entspannte Atmosphäre. Gerne wieder!! Die Therme ist in einem so schönen Stil gehalten das man aus dem staunen gar nicht mehr heraus kommt. Textil oder Textilfrei beides kein Problem im Badebereich. Saunabereich ebenfalls sehr angenehm und man fühlt sich auch hier sehr gut aufgehoben.

    Ich bin großer Fan des Bades. Man sieht wie es sich entwickelt hat. Die Dachterasse mit Aussicht und Bar ist wirklich toll. Die vielen Saunen und Bäder bieten eine Menge zu entdecken, da sind die geplanten 3 Stunden schnell rum und es werden mehr... Der alte Teil des Gebäudes ist grandios hergerichtet. Hier fühlt man sich teilweise wie in einer Zeitkapsel in eine andere Zeit versetzt. Erlebnis und Entspannung in einem!

    Durch Zufall eine der schönsten Thermen endeckt. Eine schöne Stilvolle Therme mit vielen kleinen Bädern, in denen man sich mal wie ein römischer Feldherr fühlen kann. Aber ab dem 1. Stock kommt man in eine moderne, abwechslungsreiche Saunalandschaft, die sehr Stimmig ist. Personal war sehr freundlich und auch meine in der Umkleide vergessene Uhr wurde an der Info abgegeben. Fazit: Junges Publikum, sehr schönes Ambiente und eine abwechslungsreiche Saunalandschaft machen den Besuch zu einem schönen Erlebnis.

    Absolutely stunning!! A wonderfully relaxed atmosphere in a gorgeous environment! The entire thermal baths and sauna area are very clean and the staff are all well presented and friendly.

    Unusual among German spas in being “clothing optional” throughout, with nudity the rule – not always enforced – in certain areas. Whether you like this depends on your preferences. Plus point: a reasonably sized pool in which you can swim within the naturist zone. When I was there, however, practically all the visitors just hung around in the bits where there were bubbles! Minus point (again, depending on your point of view): no serious swimming opportunities if you prefer to wear a swimsuit.

    Beautiful European style bath. Clean. Water is cold so they should provide heat at least when you're walking around different baths so you're not freezing.

    Beautiful thermal bath. You have an amazing view from the sauna of the "Montains" of Schwarzwald. The Sauna seance was great but way to short. Normally they have it for 15 min but here we had 8 min. I recommend to visit.

    Viele schöne Becken in diversen Größen und eine sehr schöne Saunawelt. Hier müsste für jeden etwas dabei sein.Tolles Außenbecken mit einer schönen Aussicht. Gutes kulinarisches Angebot, dass einzige was uns nicht so gut gefallen hat ist der Cocktail in der Flasche.

    Very nice Arabic style spa! Have to agree with other reviewers that the water in some pools felt colder than the indicated 34 degrees. Additionally, the websites states you can borrow bathrobe and two towels for a rental charge- I rented two basic towels and an old, slightly damaged bath robe and had to pay an extra 36€ at checkout, which is unreasonable and feels like a major ripoff. If you go there, take a bathrobe and an extra towel. Otherwise, I would’ve given four-five stars.

    It was ok, not many sauna areas. Your german language must be very good in order to understand all signs

    Amazing. Old historical baths together with modern saunas and pools. We liked private small baths as well. Definitely want to return.

    The place is stunningly beautiful and very clean but my least favorite of the several we have visited. As an English speaker, it was not user friendly and staff were nowhere to be seen to ask questions. There are many pools but very little variety. We were disappointed that the 36-38C pool was closed and 34C was the warmest available. The full body massage was pleasant but there was zero communication about what my needs/preferences were.

    Die Preise sind gut und wir waren zufrieden. Die Einrichtung im innen im Jugendstil und auch das Gebäude ist auch sehr schön. Es gibt viele, kleine Becken zum entdecken. In den oberen Bereich kommt man nur textilfrei, deswegen sind wir im unteren Bereich geblieben. Ich hätte mir noch ein größeres Becken zum Schwimmen gewünscht. Leider hatten wir einen Tag und eine Woche später Warzen an den Fingern bekommen, ich hoffe, es wird besser auf die Hygiene geachtet.

    Very beautiful but the baths were not at all hot. Tepid at best. Ranging from 34-38 celsius. Granted, I am used to actual hot spring bath houses where it’s closer to 45-50. The lockers also didn’t work and the staff was very unfriendly. They seemed to be bothered by questions. Also, doesn’t compared to the houses at Baden Baden. There the workers were so friendly and kind and eager to help & you pay 18€ for baths only and get many saunas, spas, and several indoor / outdoor pools including a brine shower and they range from 34-50 degrees and they have blow dryers for your hair and larger changing stations. Here you pay 15€ for bath only and get just 2 pools and neither are hot and there are no blow dryers for your hair so you either have to bring your own or leave with wet hair. While it was absolutely beautiful, it was not at all what I was expecting.

    Palais Thermal is a nicely preserved old Therme built in 1742 to replace an even older structure built in the 16th century. Originally built for the use by the prince, it was expanded to add baths for the nobility, the citizens, and even the poor. The architecture in the old part of the Therme is stunning. Especially the moorish Hall, where the dining area currently is. Parking is hard to find in the small parking area (P3 - Kuranlagenallee 2) close to the baths (but try your luck anyway), and if you fail to find a spot, I recommend parking at the Kurzentrum car park (P4 - Kernerstrasse 39) and walking the rest of the way. On busy days there is a queue to get to entry tags. From the changing area there is a long walk to the baths, with confusing signage. The Therme is textile free, but there a some days when bathing suits are allowed, if you happen to be sensitive. Overall, you go here for the architecture and to experience how baths looked like in renaissance Europe. The saunas are limited, and there is only one steam bath. The modern swimming pool on the upper deck is very nice. Dining in the Moorish Hall is an experience worth having, although it's hard to find a free table, and the food (which get after standing in queue and carry from the cafeteria to the hall) is nothing exciting. Overall, it's worth the visit, but if things were optomized a bit organisationally, this would be a great Therme.
