A new beauty. The Luchon thermal baths, which welcome thousands of spa guests each year, are today presenting their new infrastructures. Started two years ago, the project amounts to 40 million euros, financed by regional, departmental and local partners.
[…] I am particularly proud to witness the realization of this unprecedented investment for the first spa resort in the Pyrenees. While waiting for the return of the train in 2025, it is a strong signal for the attractiveness and economic and tourist development of the Queen of the Pyrenees,” declares Carole Delga, president of the Occitanie – Pyrenees-Mediterranean Region.
Several new spaces have thus emerged from the ground, enough to complete the care offer.

4,000 m² of additional thermal infrastructure
The new Luchon Thermal Baths include three new places, dedicated to children, spa and sports, as well as a spa. The last, which will open its doors at the end of the year, will offer eight beauty treatment cabins, in addition to a hammam, a jacuzzi and even sensory showers. The thermal-leisure space will be dedicated to the relaxation and recovery of athletes, thanks to its 3,000 m² “Ressources & Vous” complex.

The Thermes de Luchon are also renewing their catering offer with ILIXO, a restaurant continuously offering local and seasonal dishes and snacks.
A complete treatment offer
These new infrastructures strengthen and perfect the thermal circuit offered in Luchon. With nearly 7,000 spa guests in 2024, the site is a must, in France and Europe, for thermal treatments in rheumatology and respiratory tract. In fact, nearly thirty treatments are available for these ailments, supplemented by treatment of muscle pain based on sporting activity, relaxation and health education.
For centuries, the Luchon Thermal Baths have been renowned for their therapeutic benefits and their exceptional natural setting. They are proudly part of the thermal tradition of our region. Today, by opening this new page in our history, we are meeting the requirements of spa guests as well as tourists and contemporary expectations. […] “, says Éric Azemar, Mayor of Luchon.
The Luchonnais thermal baths are also the only ones in Europe to benefit from access to a natural vaporium, a 150 m long cave where the temperature reaches 42°C, and where the humidity level is 95%.
