10 frequently asked questions
The Spa can be visited, 365 days a year, only in swimwear, which also applies to the steam room and mint room!
The national agency which regulates disabled access [Landelijk Bureau Toegankelijkheid] has assessed the accessibility of the hotel and found that our accommodation is suitable for people with a disability.
Our spa areas have three bath lifts, one in the large thermal bath, the salt water bath and the outdoor bath. The hotel has two Handicapped Rooms available, room numbers 230 and 240, which have a wider door threshold, a shower instead of a bath, a shower seat and an invalid alarm.
There are several invalid toilets, at the lounge area, the Health & Beauty area and at the spa baths.
It may be against medical advice for pregnant guests to use some of Sanadome's facilities (in the most serious case, with contraindications, for example). This concerns in particular using the spa baths and/or having certain treatments.
In general, a visit to Sanadome is advisable for pregnant guests, as swimming in warm thermal waters is usually very relaxing, which will of course be beneficial to mother and child!
Medical advice cannot and may not be given by anyone other than a doctor or specialist treating the pregnant guest! Employees at Scandic Sanadome are therefore advised at all times to refer people with medical questions to the appropriate person! !
Children under 8 years of age are not permitted in our Spa area. Children aged 8-12 are permitted if accompanied by an adult. However, we would strongly advise you to consider carefully before taking your children to the spa area. The reason for this is that our facilities are not geared towards children and many guests visit our baths for peace and relaxation. Sanadome does not have a special spa rate for children.
A bathrobe and hand towels can be hired upon arrival or you may bring your own. We also advise you to wear slippers, which are not for hire.
We do not have a Finnish sauna as part of our spa facilities. It is not possible to reserve our spa areas exclusively for groups, particular occasions or other purposes, such as a ladies' day out.
Entry to the Thermenlandschap spa area cannot be reserved. The same applies for our basis entry packages.
To reserve treatments and/or packages, we would strongly advise you to do so in plenty of time. Sometimes, a relatively long booking term may apply for certain dates, of 4-6 weeks or longer* in advance.
*In particular, for weekends and holiday periods.
If you wish to book at short notice, then the choice of treatments will generally be limited, in particular massages. For our popular massages and Beauty treatments, our reservations department operates a waiting list system.
We most emphatically advise against trying to book Health & Beauty treatments upon arrival!! However, the Sabbia Med and the Kraxenofen can only be booked upon arrival (unless included in a package)!
For a fast and reliable reservation, with optimum attention to specific and personal details, our advice is to book directly by telephone!!
Hotel guests can make unlimited use of our spa facilities during their stay, from 9 am to 11.30 pm. If guests wish to use these facilities before the check-in time (12 noon) or after the check-out time (2pm), they can leave their luggage in the luggage area next to our hotel reception desk.

We have put together a comfortable package for you. You can start each morning from 2.45 am onwards with our extensive Scandic buffet breakfast and even make up your own packed lunch. During the days when the walk takes place, our staff will be positioned along the route with their own care post and a free blister treatment service. In the evening, we serve a varying international buffet in our restaurants. On Fridays, we finish the event with a festive barbecue. In other words, we provide every comfort and at the end of each day of the marathon, you can let yourself be pampered from top to toe.

To make your stay more pleasant and of course recover from the daily exertions, you can also expand your package with a massage package. In short, you can literally let yourself be completely spoiled, before and after walking.
After each day's walk, guests will each be given a massage lasting 25 minutes.
It is possible to extend the package with one night's extra stay before the marathon, on Sunday 17th July, for only €59 per person, price based on a double room or room for 3 for this extra night. The price for a single room is € 99 for this extra night.
The Four-day package is usually immediately fully booked after the previous marathon ends. However, you can also have your name put on our reservations waiting list. We have cancellations relatively often, due to personal circumstances, injuries and suchlike, so it is certainly worth while putting your name down.
We cannot answer the question whether there will be Last Minute deals available for a particular date. These deals are only arranged at the last minute, depending on availability.
