My wife and I are going to Poland for two weeks next month - Gdansk, Warsaw and Krakow. As we've done on other trips, we would like to spend a little time at a spa, mainly for the saunas, steam baths and pools. We plan to spend at least one day on this trip at a nice place, and right now are leaning toward Saunaria at Suntago Park of Poland, outside of Warsaw.
We would appreciate recommendations of any others to consider.
Thanks in advance.
Most Polish people will head to mountains of southern Poland for their spa experiences. There are several popular spa towns in the south, but I don't know how practical only a 1-day trip will be. In these towns usually the spas are associated with hotels, they give a holistic health resort experience with spa/food/activities etc. This has been traditional getaway for local Poles since communist times (think the beginning scenes in the movie Grand Budapest Hotel). But now these spa hotels have been renovated post-communism and are very nice.
The most well know spa town is Zakopane, with easy connection to Krakow by bus or train. Personally I go to the Silesian Beskids for the spa treatment, they are a mountain range a little further from Krakow, Wisła and Ustroń are the main spa towns in this area. I always try to go to Hotel Belweder when in the area, I believe they have a location in Zakopane too - https://hotelbelweder.pl/en/
