Day spa in or around Mannheim, Germany?

I am looking for a day spa in or around Mannheim, Germany. Can anyone help me out? It would be great if they have a website also. Thanks for the help.Day spa in or around Mannheim, Germany?
The following are just hear-say tips - personally I'd rather eat glass than visit a day spa... :-)





I know that the hotel Europ盲ischer Hof in Heidelberg offers Day Spa service to people regardless whether they are staying at the hotel or not. It is quite well known in the area.


The Maritim Hotel in Mannheim on the other hand has only minor Spa facilties, and I think you have to book a room for the weekend in order to be able to use them.








Apart from that, you could check the websites of all regional spa towns (Bad Langenbr眉cken, Bad Mingolsheim, Bad Sch枚nborn, Bad Rappenau, Bad Wimpfen) and see if they also offer day spa services.


I guess you see the pattern here - basically look at the map, and whatever town you see beginning with ';Bad';, there's a spa (or used to be one).





Of course, the day spa at the Europ盲ischer Hof would have the advantage that you'll share it with other day spa enthusiasts only - while the ';real'; spas offer the usual mix of geriatric, sick %26amp; diseased people :-)Day spa in or around Mannheim, Germany?

5 Thumbs-down???


Wow - I had no idea how controversial the topic of spas in Mannheim is.

I love the German spas - I lived in Germany and went to several - very relaxing and pleasant - and refreshingly not uptight as they would be in the US.





I looked online and found your best bet - it at least looks really cool.





It is run by the city of Mannheim - the Herschelbad.





It has an Art Noveau swimming pool, roman/irish steam bath, sauna, a warm air room, warm bath, cold bath and table shower - and state licensed massage therapists.





From October to the end of April, you can use the pool and sauna area together - nude - from 10 am to 5 pm. At other times, the sauna area is separate from the pool - and you have to wear a bathing suit to swim.





It looks pretty cool.

Its address is U3, 1 in Mannheim. It is an odd address convention in which each block has a unique letter/number identifier.
