Any german Spa will do and has to do. Due to the german history there seems to be a wide spread opinion that Germany is a country full of racism. That is not true. In fact racism might be far under average compared to the other western countries, just with the difference that if a foreigner or non caucasian gets hurt it will appear in the national and international news, no matter if relation to racism or not. If an afro-american or african will be beaten in Germany, you will read it in the New York Times, if one will be killed in New York, will you read it there too?
As said before discrimination because of your race, nationality, relegion, sex or because you are disabled is forbidden in Germany and protected by the law. If there should be the slightest sign that you are not treated in the proper way, just call the manager. The person discrimitaing you will be fired most likely.

Bad nauheim in hessen has some of the best oldest bath houses used by the Jews before they had their rights taken from them. Any spa and wellness center should service you. As a black woman living in Germany I have been discrimin ated against. I have been called the N word "******". I have been walked away from at the flea markets, I have been skipped in store lines while waiting to pay for my groceries or order foods. Anyone who says Germany is tolerant and not racist is lying. I conduct myself with respect for the Germans and myself and yet I still get treated badly. Its not my behavior, its not my atiitude, its the color of my skin that made an idiot call me a "******" (the N word). All I have to say is you will never forget the color of your skin no matter where you live. Germans don't like people coming in from other countries to reside there. They are not keen to the Turks, the Russians, or any other nationalities coming into their cuntries to live.

Don't compare Germany with the US,lad.We live in the 21.century .It seems the US education (or where ever you come from ) sucks.
Anyway,the best spa ( for me ) would be Baden-Baden.Thermal bath.You pay by the hour,and you can use everything,from sauna,massages,pools (even outdoor pools in Winter-heated)
you name it.So enjoy,and by ****,don't worry about racial discrimination cause there is non!!

All of them. Main citys like Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne and Düsseldorf have very good spas. Blacks are served everywhere.

What makes you think they wouldn't serve blacks or afro-americans? That would be called discrimination, which is illegal in Germany.

Any discrimination because of gender, race, etc is against german law! It's one of the fundamentals of german legislation. Everybody should be served at any spa or wellness.
