Caracalla Spa

Spent a good 2 hours enjoying the thermal waters. Ticket for 2 hours to visit the pools and use the naturist sauna upstairs is 25 euros plus a 6 euro fee gorvtowel hire. But caution keep an eye on your towel as it's 21 euros if you lose it! In the sauna area upstairs it is a no textile area and you are obliged to sit on your towels in the saunas. There are lots of choices based on temperatures and there is a cafe. Downstairs the pools are huge and extend outside so you can swim and bathe in the sun. This area is textile so you need a costume. It is very clean and there are lots of changing areas ...showers and lockers for valuables. You get a waterproof fob that does everything including charging for food and drinks...opening lockers ...gaining access to the sauna area etc. Very well run...A must if you are visiting Baden Baden.

As a lover of Japanese style hot baths, the rather tepid baths didn’t do it for me. Also the scale and theme park atmosphere was missable. So suffice to just walk through the first floor and experience the various baths especially the outdoor one with the strong current and lazy river. The second floor (no clothes) was much better as the saunas were actually hot! There are a variety of them and the most impressive is the steam room (great spa) with a sun drenched view of the outdoor bath downstairs. There are also outdoor saunas which are charming especially in cooler weather. Here you really get to sweat out toxins and the spaces are smaller and with fewer people so that you can relax. The cold plunge pools dotted around are amazing for circulation, and the foot baths to regulate temperature were a thoughtful healthy touch. I wish I skipped through downstairs more quickly to spend my time here! The changing rooms were well designed for maximum efficiency - you enter from the outside into a changing room, disrobe and the locker is on the other side. Vice versa when you leave. Everything is streamlined and neat. With the mass of human traffic I think the spa staff do their best to keep things clean but it’s not going to be 100%. Don’t bring too much - swimsuit (a must for baths) and rubber nonskid slippers if u need footwear (optional I think). Also a towel or two for the sauna - if u like to put something over u or under your head. Bathrobe if u intend to hangout in the comfy chairs for a while. Important tip - the GPS location fails if coming by car, please put in GPS the address for the parking garage : Rotenbachtalstraße 1, 76530. Did not realise the spa validated parking, so please remember to do so.

We visited Terme Caracalla on early sunday afternoon and we really enjoyed our visit. It was not as crowded as we expected to be. The water temperature was perfect and the saunas was great. No water machines at sauna area, you can purchase beverages though. Staff was friendly.

Very nice experience at the Spa. We went 2 hours in the evening. We took tickets only for Spa area and was very relaxing, the pool are clean and the water was very good temperature. Also nice wet sauna inside the spa.

Second floor of Sauna is amazing, specially the one of 95 degrees. By the way, the front desk is very kind and nice

The spa has a beautiful setting with both indoor and outdoor pools that look great. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end for me. The hygiene throughout the spa is really poor. The bathrooms in the spa area smell strongly of urine and feel damp and neglected. The whole place is way too moist, including the locker rooms, where I also noticed rubbish on the floor and human hairs everywhere. It gave a very unclean impression and made it hard to relax. The solarium beds are dirty and clearly not taken care of. For a wellness facility, regular and thorough cleaning should be a priority—but here, it clearly isn’t. The sauna area is also outdated. While the wooden chalets outside look nice, everything inside feels old and run-down. Overall, the spa looks good at first glance, but once you actually use the facilities, it’s clear that cleanliness and maintenance are being ignored. This needs urgent attention.

Good experience. Loved the outdoor pools. The reception person could surely use a smile to make the place more ‘thermal’ (warm). There is a lot of things one can do. Recommend 3-4 hours minimum. Did not try the cafeteria but it is good. Parking can be validated. Being own towels to save money. And relax as much as u can. Most visitors were nice and fun.

I had a horrible experience at this place. Beware! As I was leaving a gentleman from the US was being accused of taking something/not getting refunded for his towel because he did not have a receipt. Next it was my turn to check out... the woman at the check out desk aggressively kept saying I owed 3.50 for a lemon... and accusing my son of having a lemon??? We are wondering what a lemon is (apparently it's a drink) then accused me going to sauna... we never stepped foot in a spa and never had this so called lemon... it was a horrible experience and terrible way to end my experience in Germany! Just beware!! Horrible situation!!

When in Rome, or in this case Germany, you have to experience the spa. It's affordable and relaxing. Pools filled with natural mineral water of varying temperatures, under lots of natural light from the dome. A sauna and massage unit in different rooms, there is a variety of areas to lounge. I didn't see any children, I believe 16 is the minimum age here. There are waterfalls and swimming areas outside and I hear this is open all year. The water is warm so even if the air is freezing, you will be comfortable and exhilarated by the variance. Upstairs is a clothing prohibited area for a few extra euros for those who are adventurous. I was. For an American this is for the very mature and open minded. I love to people watch and experience the culture from a non tourist perspective. This was not an American nudist beach where everybody is 60+. All ages from probably 16 up since I believe 16 is their technical adult age. But a wide range of people. There were outside areas that led to saunas, a hot tub and bar to grab a drink. Everything was charged to your waterproof bracelet (no where else to hold a wallet or purse, flip flops and towel only). Very relaxing and free. Loved it!

I loved it here. It was the most relaxing and enjoyable experience of all of Germany. My body was exhausted and tight and soar from all of my travels. They have so many different jets and whirlpools to help you relax and to target each part of your body. It felt like an aqua massage. The restaurant was okay, nothing special, but the experience of the cold and warm plunge as well as the sauna and steam room and the indoor out door pools.... i never wanted to leave. Definitely recommend this for anyone.

The place is perfect ! But staff is rude. Especially a girls from Serbia. Also my own towel was stallen. But anyway would recommend to everyone.
