Salt Cave vs. Private Salt Room: Which Experience Is Right for You?
Salt Cave vs. Private Salt Room
If you’re exploring salt therapy for the first time — or deciding which type of session to book — you may notice there are different ways to experience it. At Grota Solna, guests can choose between a salt cave or a private salt room, each offering a calm, indoor environment designed for relaxation.
While both options provide a peaceful space to slow down, they are designed with different settings and preferences in mind. This overview can help you decide which experience best fits your visit.
The Salt Cave Experience
The salt cave is a potentially shared space with a more open, immersive design. Guests relax in a softly lit room lined with Himalayan salt, with higher ceilings that create a sense of openness and ease.
The cave features natural salt formations along the walls, a decorative salt fireplace, and a gentle water feature that adds to the overall ambiance. Depending on the session, you may be the only guest in the space or you may share the environment with others in a quiet, respectful setting.
Many guests choose the salt cave because they enjoy a spacious atmosphere and the calming sensory elements of the room.

The Private Salt Room Experience
The private salt room offers a more contained, personal setting designed for one or two guests at a time. These rooms provide a quieter, more controlled environment, which some guests prefer for focused relaxation or privacy.
Private salt rooms are often chosen by guests who want a dedicated space for themselves or who prefer a smaller, enclosed room without shared elements.
Key Differences at a Glance
Salt Cave
• Potentially shared environment
• Larger space with higher ceilings
• Natural salt formations, water feature, and decorative salt fireplace
Private Salt Room
• Reserved for one or two guests
• Smaller, enclosed setting
• Designed for privacy and minimal distraction
Both experiences are designed to be comfortable and calming, and neither requires special preparation beyond arriving ready to relax.
Which Option Is Right for You?
If you enjoy open spaces, ambient sound, and a more immersive setting, the salt cave may be a good fit. If privacy or a quieter, more contained environment is important to you, a private salt room may be the better choice.
Some guests choose to try both options over time to see which environment they prefer.
Booking Tips
Sessions typically last around 45 minutes. Many guests return regularly as part of their personal wellness routine, and session packs or memberships are available for those who plan to visit more frequently.
If you’re unsure which option to book, starting with a single session is a simple way to experience each space.

Final Thoughts
Both the salt cave and private salt rooms offer calm, indoor environments designed to help guests slow down and unplug. The right choice comes down to how you prefer to relax and whether you value openness or privacy during your session.
