A two-hour session at the Thermae Bath Spa’s New Royal Bath, the complex’s main spa, grants you access to the 34-degree Celsius waters of an open-air rooftop pool and the larger indoor Minerva Bath, along with steam rooms and saunas. You can sometimes also book a session in the spa’s historic and much more intimate Cross Bath, which can accommodate up to 10 people.
Insider’s tip: You can pre-book the two-hour session at the New Royal Bath, but some spaces are also kept available on the day. At busy times, if you haven’t pre-booked, visit the spa early in the day to maximise the chances of getting a slot. Packages, some with treatments, are also on offer and need booking ahead.
