We liked the fact that there were 2 swimming pools with different temperatures inside and oudside as well. Nice whirlpool and water massages available.Dont forget to bring your own towel (otherwise the extra charge is 3.30 euro per towel)! Also they dont have any free soap in the shower room.The location of the Roemertherme is about 10-15 min by walk from the main Baden train station.

We visit Baden several times per year. Roemertherme is the place to refresh yourself by saunas, swimming, relaxing...winter or summer equally.

After a weekend of dancing and drinking in Vienna at Beat Patrol 2012, my boyfriend and I headed to the Roemertherme in Baden for some down time and detox. After paying the entrance fee, all other purchases are made by swiping a chipped wrist band. There are two large swimming pools indoors, of varying heat. One perhaps more suited to the more serious swimmer and the other, a couple of degrees warmer better for the sedated splashers. Outside there were two smaller pools which were much warmer in temperature with fountains and side seats. A word of warning be careful of burning in the water, the beautiful sunshine gave me not so beautiful tan lines in under 20 minutes. There was a cafeteria serving traditional Austrian cuisine and refreshments with seating available inside and out. Although smoking is prohibited inside, it is permitted in all outside areas. We enjoyed the Jacuzzi and Whirlpool, but in particular we favoured the Sauna area. It does cost a few euros extra, but it is well equipped with steam and sauna rooms, and a private sunbathing area. It is however not for the faint hearted being a nude only area. German speaking countries tend to have a Saunameister who pours scented water onto coals, and uses a large towel to circulate hot air through the sauna, encouraging sweating and the perception of heat (Aufguss). If you like heat it’s definitely worth a visit. All in all the Roemertherme was a very relaxing experience and warranted a second visit the following day.

On the hills over Baden are the ruins of two castles. We decided to hike up to one before our visit to the Romertherm so we got the blood flowing. The therme was the perfect thing to unwind after our hike.Like other European spas you pay something up front and get a wrist band with an embedded RFID chip. To pay for anything you swipe the wristband. A word of caution: do not lose the wristband. The Austrians seem to be very honest people but visitors from many places come to the place and might want you to buy them a beer.The facility was quite clean. Large coed dressing area but except one old guy people were pretty modest. Two very large pools indoors. One was cool but very swimmable probably about 78F. The other was a bit warmer, perhaps 84F. There were two outdoor pools which jumped up to maybe 95 and 100F. One of the outdoor pools was obviously headed by geothermal sources so had some hydrogen sulfide odor but some claim it helps rheumatism or something (certainly not your nose).In the back were saunas which we didn't go into because it seemed they were nude only.We ate in their restaurant. The food was affordable and good. We were late in the afternoon so the salad bar was pretty well gone through and it didn't look like it was to be refreshed anytime soon. We had sandwiches and fries (pommes) and drinks for three and it came to 33.00 Euros. For the rest of the experience towels and three hours of swimming we spent about 45 Euros for the three of us.
