Sturebadet Haga

Nice experience overall and maybe better in the Summer with some outdoor classes but not very exceptional staff and not that impressive of a facility. It’s a pretty small place, really. There’s a gym with quite a few machines packed in and some free space, a cardio room, and then a studio for classes and etc — and of course the lockers with a sauna for each sex and the main pool where you can lounge around. So it’s pretty basic. I was expecting some more hot pools and maybe more places to just relax but that was it.
The salmon salad was freaking amazing. I mean it’s just from a plastic container and then they add some fresh ingredients but it was so good for a very fair price, I think 105 or so. I almost got two of them.
The staff really kind of brought the place down for me. I had never done the whole spa thing and clearly never been to Sturabadet and I was asking a bunch of questions but I got no enthusiasm for the establishment from the front desk and no real human connection. Next the salsa teacher while all well and good at leading the class wasn’t really adding any personality to the experience, and when I checked out for the day the lady was also a bit rude.
The massage table wasn’t too great either. The padding on the head rest was really thin and it actually took away from the relaxation because I could feel the metal of the head rest against my forehead. Pretty poor.
Despite having no idea what you are actually supposed to do at the spa, it was super relaxing and I definitely enjoyed myself there. Would I come back? Not sure. I would probably try the one in the center of town before coming back here.
