Is Thermae Bath Spa worth it?: Depends on the budget: a two-hour Thermae Welcome session costs 44 GBP on weekdays and 49 GBP at weekends, and this is the only place you can actually bathe in Bath's natural thermal water, with the open-air rooftop pool over the city as the draw. Reports say book ahead and go at opening or twilight; anyone wanting a hushed luxury spa or a cheap swim should look elsewhere.
