Traveler reviews
Stunning experience
What a beautiful place. Was nice to just sit and relax by the side of the baths and just take a dip whenever I felt like it. Make sure you take your own flip flops as they are mandatory around the baths. Also take your own towel as they are an extra cost!
Historic and Relaxing!
It was such an historical and experiential activity, one that can’t be done everywhere. There were many hot and cold pools to explore. Clean and well organized. You don’t need a hair cap unless you go to the lap pool. Bring a towel and flip flops are required! We had a lot of fun!
Bri ng your own towel or...
Bri ng your own towel or you will have to buy one. This is a great place to spend a day relaxing. There are outdoor and indoor pools with a cooling pool inside. Showers are available to rinse off afterwards. Lockable changing rooms available. Also, in order to use showers, have sandals that you can wear in shower. Otherwise, you will have to buy.
This was FUN
Despite the 100 degree temps this was great fun. Each of us got a secure locker with a modern wrist band to open it with a simple touch - it’s large enough to leave backpacks, wallets, personal effects and very secure -ample room to get changed in - the large outdoor pool area includes a whirlpool which spins you around and is great fun. YOU NEED FLIPFLOPS - you’re not allowed to walk around bare foot - I had to buy a paid for US $45 in their store. There’s lots of bathrooms, water fountains, a basic restaurant, and beds everywhere, but not so many umbrellas - bring sunscreen! Inside there’s a least a dozen hot spas if not more - most are warm, some are hot, a few are COLD. Upstairs there’s a beer spa - sit in wooden tubs with hot spa water and the beer tap is right there and you can drink as much as you like. Loved this excursion it was a blast - and if you’re up to it the zoo is only a few minutes down the street- you could go there first then spend the rest of the day in the spa! Tip? You can only enter once - no exit and entry allowed!
Filthy and disgusting. This should never be the number one attraction in Budapest!!!
Not a single seat available. On the filthy side. Pair the ticket and left 10 minutes later. Cannot comprehend how people swim in this water. They don’t even provide you with a towel. Never again.
