Visiting this pool center under the giant glass dome in the west of Munich on a chilly, rainy day…read morein August was a pure enjoyment for me and my kids. Water slide was kids' favorite. They're open daily 7:30am - 11pm. All-day family ticket (families with children up to 14 years old) is 31.60 euro. Relax in the whirlpool, steam room and open-plan sauna area with its Finnish sauna, sanarium and steam bath and open-air cool-down area with plunge pool. Everything is included in the admission price. The Westbad offers the ideal combination of facilities - enjoy stamina training in the 25-meter sports pool or tone up with aqua-gymnastics in the non-swimmers' pool in a way that is easy on the joints.

Take it easy in the whirlpool, the steam room or open-plan sauna area which are all included in the pool admission price. The center's large outdoor pool has the warm water which is enriched with Bad Reichenhall salt water. We had a great time relaxing in the open-air with the Jacuzzi seats and massage jets.

Today I want to write a review about the Therme Erding. The world biggest water park|hot spring|spa…read moreand sauna. As there are international Yelpers reading my reviews I try to write in English today. The Therme Erding is divided into five different areas: - Tropical Spa - Waterpark with Wavepool - waterslide paradise Galaxy - Vitality Oasis (min. age 16) - Saunaworld (min. age 16, naked area) In addition you can choose about three different types of accommodations if needed: - Hotel Victory - Victory Guesthouse - Caravan Park If you enter the entrance you line up to pay the entrance fee. Here you have to decide how long you want to stay and what parts of the facility you want to use. If needed you can rent bathrobes and towels. After you paid (cash or with creditcard) you get an RFID-Tag for your wrist. Depending on what you booked you enter either the locker rooms for the Tropical Spa (including Galaxy, Wavepool, Vitality Oasis) or the locker rooms for the Saunaworld. Your RFID Tag locks and opens your locker (the number of the locker is printed on your tag). Here is one important note - especially for non European visitors. The Saunaworld (including the Saunaworld locker rooms) is a naked area. That means it is not allowed to wear clothes starting at a certain point (you will see the signs). This fact has already led to one or the other cultural shock. But that's part of European sauna culture. Of course you can wear a bathrobe or wrap a towel around your body. Furthermore over 90% of the Saunaworld is not separated according to gender (except a small ladies area with ladies only sauna). The minimum age to use the Saunaworld is 16 years. First I want to tell you what you get offered in the Tropical Spa with its Wavepool, Thermal springs water, Waterslides and the Vitality Oasis. On an area of about 27.500 square meters (9.000 inside - 18.500 outside) you find: - 27 slides with together more than 2700 meters (from very easy to super thrilling) - Wavepool with gentle waves - textile sauna - Whirlpools - Body treatments (like Massage etc. ) - and of course different types of restaurant where you get food & drinks The inner part of the Area is spanned by a big dome (56 meters in diameter) and can be opened halfway on warm weather conditions. All your consummations you can book onto your RFID-Tag and pay when you leave the Therme Erding. To prevent all visitors from drunk guests the stuff is only allowed to sell maximum three alcoholic drinks per person per day. That's a good decision if you ask me. Nevertheless you should try the Erding Weizenbeer! If you like a more private area you can book some private suites and lounges - please ask for it at the entrance where you pay your entrance fee. The second big area at Therme Erding is the Saunaworld. You can enter it directly at the entrance or you use the passage from the Tropical Spa to the Saunaworld (you get access with your RFID-tag) In the Saunaworld you find 30 different themed saunas and over 300 different beauty and spa offers. It is almost mpossible to tell you all the different amenities and styles of the saunas, steambaths, pools and relaxation rooms. You can choose from among "infusion sauna", "action sauna", "Roman sauna", or "steam bath". In 13 Infusion saunas infusion ceremonies with different fanning techniques take place several times each day. Masks, peelings, and other extras are available in nine action saunas. Three Roman saunas and two steam baths are waiting for you in the Roman Villa. After some of the infusion ceremonies you get for example a cold drink or an ice cream. There are body peelings with honey, salt or healing earth or masks with cocoa butter. You can bake bread rolls in one of the saunas - or - drink an Erdinger Weizenbeer in the men's only sauna (looks like an Bavarian pub). This all you find at an Areal about 13.600 square meters. The main building is covered under a glas roof that weights 260 tons and can be opened on good weather conditions. Of course there are a couple of restaurants for you to discover. (Thai, Steak, Italian) Like in the Tropical Spa you can rent some private lounges and suites in the Saunaworld too. How about a suite at the lake with a bottle of champagne included? Ask for it at the entrance. I can recommend the Therme Erding 100%. The stuff is friendly, everything is clean the prices are high but reasonable. If you ever plan a visit in Munich think about a day of fun in the Therme Erding. Despite the fact that this is the biggest Therme in the world it can get pretty crowded on special dates. So try to avoid the German holiday season, special Holidays (the time around Christmas) and be aware that on weekends there are of course much more visitors than on weekdays. Of course it is not allowed to take photos inside the Therme because of privacy - I just add some pictures from my stay there at Hotel Victory. Visit their homepage for more information and pictures.
