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.

Germany's weather has multiple personalities. A sunny summer day can be overtaken by a rumbling…read morethunderstorm in mere moments...a freak warm day can surprise even the most tuned out local if it happens in early spring or late fall. I've been to Wonnemar on both of these kinds of days...and, left happy and relaxed both times. Part kid water park, part adult spa, Wonnemar itself has multiple personalities. And, multiple locations...seven to be exact. This one is in Ingolstadt. For the young (or young at heart), there are indoor and outdoor pools (with lots of lounge chairs and umbrellas) and water slides. If you'd rather not be splashed, you can segregate yourself in the adult spa area and soak in one of the heated pools, cook in the sauna, or breathe deep in the salt room. (If you've never tried a salt room, this is reason enough to come here.) Bring a towel, a bathing suit, flip flops, the price of admission, your own snacks and relax for awhile.

OK - I'll be a bit kinder in this round than I was in my Trip Advisor review, partially due to the…read morefact that this will be the first Yelp review in English, and secondly, that the other Yelp reviews speak largely to the architectural beauty of the structure, and the museum like qualities of the sculptures, the woodwork, and simply the ornate beauty of the place. I'm on board with all that. Where my review gets dicey is when you try to compare this with the ultra self-indulgent thermal and sauna complexes that are sprouting up all over northern Europe. Not a fair comparison, it seems.... As you approach the building, it is quite imposing along the river banks (literally across the street from the Deutsches Museum). I thought, "this is gonna be great!" Once inside however, I found a few things to be more challenging than I had expected. * I was unable to locate a map of the place, and after looking at the menu of fees; I still was unable to figure out exactly what I was asking for. * The person working the admission booth was quite friendly, but apparently had NO English whatsoever. I'm good with that, but... * Signage around the place was sort of hit and miss, especially since you have to leave some of your belongings in a small box near the attendant, (who also only spoke German, but was significantly more curt!) * I kept thinking I would find a map of the place so I would know where the various baths and saunas were located. If such a thing exists, it's still a mystery to me. At one point, I made my way into the hall with the main pool wrapped only in a towel, only to find the door (that would lead me back to the sauna) locked behind me. Finally figured out my wristband would unlock the door, after a bit of wondering how I would negotiate getting out of the spa in only a towel. * But most importantly, assuming I found all the major features on offer, I was a little surprised there wasn't more there. Granted, I was there on a Wednesday afternoon, but having said that, I was surprised to find the only two dozen or so other patrons in the entire place, and most of them were, shall we say, of the elder population. All the reports about the beauty of the facility are true, as it was certainly a gem of the late 19th century, and has been well preserved. Somehow, I think that I expected there would be a bit more in the sauna area, and that even if exclusively in German, the staff would be a bit more helpful to a wayward and weary tourist. Maybe four or five stars on another day with a different attendant working the locker room, but not this time around!

Even if there were notes "keine Selbstbedienung" If you are not with kids, it is totally enough to take ticket to the saunas only. They also have a warm pool to the outside. We took the combi ticket to both areas as we thought there would be no pools in the sauna area. The therme side is nice if you only want to chill in the pools and be with your kids. The Sauna area has many different Saunas, from 40 to 50 degrees and 60-80 degrees. Infusion is done in one of the most biggest saunas once per hour. One of the highlights was the boatsauna on the river!
