▲Swedish Massage, Spa, and Sauna —To treat yourself to a Swedish spa
experience—maybe with an authentic “Swedish massage”—head for the el-
egant circa-1900 CentralBadet Spa. Admission includes entry to an extens-
ive gym, “bubblepool,” sauna, steam room, and an elegant Art Nouveau pool.
A classic massage (50 minutes) costs 650 kr—you don't have to pay the entry
fee if that's all you want. Reservations are smart. If you won't make it to
Finland, enjoy a sauna here (for more on saunas, see here ) . There are two
saunas—one mixed, one not. Bring your towel into the sauna—not for mod-
esty, but for hygiene (to separate your body from the bench). The steam room
is mixed; bring two towels (one for modesty and the other to sit on). The pool
is more for floating than for jumping and splashing. The leafy courtyard res-
taurant is a relaxing place to enjoy affordable, healthy, and light meals.
