Thermae 2000

The room size was great. Having a private space to retreat to while at the spa was great. The view of trees was nice and secluded feeling. The towels and robes in the room were a luxurious touch. The breakfast in the morning was VERY good, and with the option of dining in your robe! I got there before 9 and it was very quiet. Things picked up around 10am.

My room was hot and stuffy when I arrived. The sun was shining in and the curtains were left open. There was no real way to air out the room. There was a fan, which was nice, but no AC, which I expected for the price that you pay for these rooms. But it's my fault for missing that detail. The balcony, while it has the feel of being private and secluded is anything but. My room smelled of fresh paint fumes and I REALLY needed to leave the doors open to air it out as I was getting a headache, but the balcony opens to a grassy area that anyone could walk on from their balcony and come into your room (though the grassy area is not a common space nor meant for walking on). So I was torn between comfort and safety. I was told that the room had not been painted recently when I inquired about the fumes, and I was told that I could not switch rooms because they were fully booked. I mentioned the fumes again when I checked out and they comped my Shiatsu massage chair session (7.50euro). I would not stay there again or recommend the hotel part based on my experience this time. It has also been a year since I last visited this spa and I felt that the facilities looked a bit grungy this visit.
