I had an extra hour plus at the Frankfurt Airport, so instead of hanging around in the sorry Air France lounge (see another report), I decided to exit the airport and check out the spa the the Steigenberger hotel.
There's a nice and well lit pool, maybe 15 meters long (?). Then there's a separate sauna area, where there are two Finnish-style saunas (one hotter than the other one), one steam sauna, and showers.
The cost to enter for non-hotel guests is high, €, but worth it :-)
I used a taxi to get to the hotel, though it turned out that it would have been easily walkable, too. And the taxis charged plenty, because they felt like they need to get big bucks from any airport rides, sigh. Oh well. I had a nice time at the spa! Much recommended.
It was quite challenging though to figure out which of the hotels around would actually take non-guests to their spas, most didn't. I'm glad Steigenberger did though!
