A unique sauna oasis awaits, with striking interiors and innovative technology. The spacious Finnish sauna accommodates 30 people and offers professional infusions. For a special sense of wellbeing, there are also a bio sauna, aroma cabin, steam bath, infrared salt cabin, where infrared rays provide warmth between salt walls, and a tepidarium.

Apart from the noise very early in the morning (the cleaning room was next to ours), we really enjoyed our stay. The carpets also need replacing.

Treatment programme was OK, nothing more

Travelling alone | 4–8 days

Hotel not very welcoming and the reception staff not at all pleasant. There were a lot of people on the treatment programme, and for some treatments the politeness was borderline. English is often rudimentary. No one to guide you on the first day, so you have to find your own way. I wasn't the only one! Medical support too limited. There should at least be an interim appointment to make sure everything is going well. Finally, nothing is provided for people who have a special diet. They eat in the same setting and you have to fight every time to get your meal. So the positive point is that the treatments are given well, but the rest is not recommended.
