Actually okay but not great. To start with it’s a glorified swimming pool complex, with the majority of stuff indoors. There were no really quiet areas, even the quiet outside pool area had pop music blaring out. Midweek morning and it was stuffed with teenage boys, I can safely say that the male polish swagger is in evidence at around 14! Spotlessly clean to be fair but everything is a palaver, the outside pools are on ground and -1 levels, reception and lockers are on ground, cafes etc are on +1 and the saunas re up at the top on +2. Don’t forget your towel if you go into the sauna, otherwise you have to buy one to sit on. Got me warm (6 inches of snow on the ground and -7 today) but not really worth the 1.5 - 2 hr trek to get here.

Fabulous thermal baths up in the mountains, visited for my birthday and have to say it was wonderful to be outside in a thermal pool and sipping a Prosecco martini whilst the snow came down. Plenty of choice in pools/jacuzzi and hot tubs, but a word of warning the day we were there they were extremely busy with family’s with young children so not always as relaxing as it might otherwise have been! We ate in the restaurant which was excellent - if Polish is not your first language then ask for the menu in English - so much easier! A great day out.

We had to go early as it was Christmas Eve and public buses don’t run in the afternoon. Even then, we were charged 10zolty to reach the bus stop of the chocholowska thermal bath from Targowica. Ticket was 99 zolty and 79 for senior citizen. It was a fun filled 2/3 hours. Please bring swimming clothes. Please bring your own towels. Otherwise each towel cost 10zolty and no one cares to explain in any other language !!!! Normal ticket excludes access to saunararium (unclothed) and spa. You are provided one locker per person. Facilities that were available are salt’sauna’ something similar to graduation tower at Wieliczka, normal wet steam sauna, 2 levels of outdoor thermal pools (bottom level is more fun and has poolside bar), water slides and the heart-dropping vertical drop not for the faint hearted and elderly, a hot jacuzzi. We came out early at 1230, do not want to be caught with the mad rush for the last bus at 130pm. the bus is even smaller than the minibus which was available in my country. Wait. Wait. Wait. Eventually, a taxi came and there were eight of us, including locals. it was 80zolty divided equally. And it cost us the same as a bus ticket!! I am happy to answer any questions.

I arrived just before the opening time of 9am and the pools were noticeably quieter and more relaxed for the first couple of hours. A 3 hour ticket (you are allowed 3 hours 15 minutes) was just right to try out all the different pools, both indoor and outdoor. The setting is amazing and the upkeep is immaculate. It was such an experience to be in the lovely warm water in the outdoor areas whilst it was snowing! The minibus back to Zakopane can be caught from a bus stop with the car park.

A lovely and warm place. Very comfortable. You can buy tickets by the hour or a full day ticket. There is plenty of parking and if you forgot something, there are shops to buy everything that is missing. There are restaurants in the Termo area and it is very convenient to just drop by for lunch. Plenty of warm and pleasant pools including pools under the sky with an open bar right in the pool.

The sheer number of people visiting means a degree of bedlam near tge entrance and in the changing areas. The main pools upstairs pools get really busy too but there are also some much quieter warm pools on the ground floor that most don't seem to realise exist. Upstairs has a variety of warm indoor pools, including ones for children, and an outdoor one that enjoys spectacular mountain views. Downstairs are some smaller pools and a small bar area. There are also water slides, a restaurant and shop on site and a few bars. There are changing cubicles available if required and hair dryers. Bring your own towel.

We bought evening tickets when the thermal baths are, in theory, less crowded. On a Saturday in the February winter break, it was packed solid. The car park was a bit of a nightmare but we got a space in the end. The organisation is excellent with the wristbands getting you inside, opening lockers and paying for drinks and food. All the pools were crowded, upstairs outside was the nicest, downstairs outside, with DJ and bar in the pool, was the craziest. If you don't mind crowds, it is a great place but if you prefer something quieter and have a car, I would recommend Meander aquapark just over the border in Slovakia.

We went on Sunday - visiting the thermal baths over the weekend is more costly than during the week. Take a towel with you and wet slippers or sliders if you have as you cannot enter the changing rooms with shoes. There are lockers which is great and you are required to shower before entering the baths/pools so everyone is nice and clean to start with. The variety of pools and baths is amazing, there are two huge outside pools and three slides to keep the kids entertained while the adults enjoy a drink in the pool outside - yes you there is a bar in the lower pool outside. We imagine during summer there are awesome parties here as there was a stage on one side too. Music is playing and the pools are 36'C with a spectacular view of the snowy mountains. As we entered the pools it started snowing - totally surreal and beautiful. We'll be back before we head home for sure!!

I parked according to the parking attendant's instructions in the place he showed me. After an hour, my car was announced and I had to come to the cash desk. There, the workers informed me that I had to park in another place. I received no explanation and no apology. So I decided to dry off and go out to park the car. This is a very unpleasant approach to customers. I was left outraged. Big minus for this experience.

We really enjoyed it. On a weekday in May it wasn't overcrowded. It's fairly new so the facilities aren't tired at all. I like the wristband thing where you can charge food and drink to that while you are there and pay when you leave. There is a shop selling swimwear, flip flops etc if you don't have them with you and we were pleasantly surprised, as the stuff is OK and not overpriced. We went on a Chocholow Ticket and Transfer from Krakow with Cracow Top Tours and that worked well. Our driver Maciek was a good guy and managed the pick ups and drop offs very well.
