Thermenhotel Gutenbrunn

Convenient, homy

The breakfast is NOT what it used to be, sadly.

This was an amazing hotel, one of a kind. The highlight, the hotel built a hard-structure hallway access to the Romertherme spa years and years ago, the hallway is roughly 80m long and heated so you can walk there in your hotel provided bathrobe. We booked a room on the 3rd floor that was 35m2, plenty of room: very comfortable bed; table with two leather chairs; large area for clothes, very-very nice room. The breakfast was incredible, from fruits to eggs, cheese, meats, breads, yogurts, coffee's, juices and much, much more. The entire hotel is full of beautiful old art work, statues and plaques of famous guests (eg: Ludwig Beethoven in 1824). Hotel has one 4x man elevator which seems to be fine, never had to wait more than 30 sec for a lift. The hotel provides you with a wrist token to get into the Romertherme for free/gratis, this includes access to the lap pool, play pool (both about 30m in length), both outdoor Jacuzzi style pools AND free/gratis access to saunaland (even thou you have to rescan your wrist token, it's all free/gratis to hotel guests). The water is amazing, comes from 14 mineral springs that make your skin soft- really a treat. Saunaland isn't the largest or best we've been to but not bad: 2x Finnische, 1x Roma, 1x small cold pool (7x7 but nice) on the left and on the right is 3x wet/damf saunas and 1x outdoor Finnishe house/sauna. The area has plenty of lounge chairs throughout the areas plus one quiet area. The hotel provides both a bathrobe and towels (sauna length); Romertherme provides them at a cost so bring the hotel ones- hotel even provides a nice wicker basket (in your room) to load/bring to the Romertherme.

Which I had planned more then a 4 day stay..........

Everything else

View from my room

I liked the whole building - the historical layout and the connection that the hotel has with the Roman spa.

When we first came there were no towels inside our bathroom - i mentioned it to the reception and got them right away. The only thing that bothered me the most was the draft that was coming into the bathroom "under" the closed window.
