It may or may not be a little early to start thinking about Christmas presents, but if you’re already worried about what to get for all your friends and family and then wondering if at the end of the holiday season you’ll have enough budget left to also treat yourself, Thermae has the perfect solution for both problems.
A promotion available at both locations just outside Brussels, in Grimbergen and Boetfort, shoots both birds with one stone. When purchasing a gift voucher for any treatment or package worth at least €100, you receive a free day pass for yourself, which includes access to all the public baths, saunas and aufguss treatments.
Available until 31 December, the promotion is in fact even better than it sounds, as you don’t get just one free day for any purchase over €100, but one free day for every €100 spent, meaning that if you really want to spoil a loved person, say with a Boetfort Experience Package that starts at €500 for 2 people, you get 5 free day passes.
If you need some inspiration, below are some ideas for what to get that special someone:
An 80-minute full body massage that covers your back, legs, feet, arms and head in detail. Get it by itself for €102, or part of a package that includes access to the baths, towels, bathrobes, slippers and a little something extra for your next visit, for €135 at Grimbergen and €139 at Boetfort. If you think you can’t sit still for 80 minutes, the peeling and massage package includes a 25-minute body peeling and a 25-minute back, shoulder and neck massage, for €115 at Grimbergen and €125 at Boetfort.
If instead of going to the sauna with everyone else you’d like some privacy with your loved ones, you can also book one of the many private saunas at both locations starting from €105 for a two-hour session for 2 people. Or, only at Grimbergen, you can enjoy the Birra Bath & Scrub, which includes a beer scrub and bath in an exclusive Grimbergen beer themed cabin, for €155 for 2 people – I’ve already got this one as a gift for my partner.
For a more traditional spa experience, an Oriental Hammam Massage might be the best option, by itself for €76 or as part of a package to qualify it for the promotion, for €109 at Grimbergen and €119 at Boetfort.
Or you can have your friend try out the newest treatment available – the head spa. Just introduced this summer, the treatment includes a 50-minute scalp and hair massage, available by itself for €73 per person, or as a package with all the perks, for €109 at Grimbergen and €119 at Boefort.
For the ultimate pampering weekend, you can opt for an overnight stay in a Superior or Deluxe room at either one of the locations. The packages start at €260 for 2 people and include a rich breakfast buffet, two days’ access to the thermal baths, and the use of bath linen.
Still undecided about which option might be the best for your friend? Then you can always opt for the safest bet – a simple money voucher so that its recipient can decide by themselves what they want to try. A money voucher is valid for 12 months and can be used for anything and at either one of the locations, so your friend can decide if they want to have a drink in the jacuzzi by the castle at Boetfort or go for the beer themed Grimbergen.
The free day pass is valid for six months and can be used from Monday to Friday, except on Friday 14/2/2025, during public holidays (21/4/2025, 1/5/2025, 29/5/2025 and 9/6/2025), long weekends (2/5/2025 and 30/5/2025) and school holidays (from 21/12/2024 to 5/1/2025, from 1/3/2025 to 9/3/2025). The day passes will not be extended. The gift vouchers and day passes are valid from the day after purchase.
