Thermen Katara

The best sauna I’ve ever been to, though I’ve only ever visited 3 in my life. Wednesday is «clothed» night. All other nights are naked only. FYI: this place is in my hometown.
You get a rubber bracelet when you enter which is used to lock and unlock your locker, and to pay for services at the bar/​restaurant. This makes the whole experience stress free.
The saunas exist of an Arabian sauna, a Finish, Thai and Japanese sauna, and a hamam and a Jacuzzi. There is also a panoramic sauna that goes up to 95° but doesn’t feel like it at all!
Additionally there is a Roman footbath at the entry, a hot outside swimming pool and a cool outside pool. Plus a walking bath with alternative hot and cold water. Also there is a reading area and a quiet area which I’ve never actually visited because it’s so secluded. There is a hotel at this place which I haven’t tried.
The Mojito is to die for. The wines seem to change according to availability and season. The food is the best I’ve ever had at a sauna. Plus, when I mentioned that I’ve had a stomach operation the staff was very courteous and allowed me to order a smaller portion. The first time I was able to order a starter only. The second time time they allowed me to order a children’s portion. Other saunas were very discourteous in this respect.
This sauna is quite busy during the day. So if you like solitude you’re better off going at night when there’s hardly anyone about. The downside of this is that the bar and restaurant close somewhat earlier than other saunas. On the plus side, entry after a certain hour during the week is cheaper.
There are special deals available from spring to fall. This place is extremely clean and modern. It’s brand new and it shows. I love this place!
The only negative thing I can say about this place is that it has a somewhat older public than other saunas I’ve visited.
