We had a great time. Cleanliness, courtesy, efficiency. Several swimming pools with different temperatures from 24° to 40-50° (to boil!!!) and saunas. Beautiful experience to recommend to water lovers to relax.

They are not spectacular like the Gellert (under renovation tomorrow ..) or the Szechenyi, but very clean, cheap (over 70 years 3600 florins per person paid cash at the cash desk) frequented almost exclusively by locals, outdoor pools and solarium, hot pool (always outdoor) with "bubbles" very pleasant, good and cheap sandwich, friendly staff who speak a little 'English. Pleasant experience

It was a bit of a let down. We found it hard to figure out the ones and outs of the towels and locker room, as there was no signage in English. The main floor attendant was super nice and had to help us out a few times. The pools were ok, the sauna was down for maintenance. Bring your own towel and bathing cap!!! We did another thermal bath outside of town and it was less crowded and had way more saunas.

What a disappointment. First, the photo of the bath house is not a fair representation, it's of a separate building seemingly inaccessible to the public. The main element in the water was chlorine, not much in the way of minerals. Facilities were antiquated. Pool was dirty on the bottom, signage was poor made worse by the indifferent and unhelpful staff. They made it plain that we were not welcome. Of all my many Viator excursions, this one was a big miss. Find a better bath house.

Waste of money! I spent 50 dollars on tickets we couldnt use when we arrived at the bath! They asked for a QR code which i never received, and was nowhere to be found on the ticket… never again .. you also get a better price buying the ticket there

So..... the thermal baths until free for those who have the Budapest Card and you can stay there all day from 7 am to 8 pm. Without the Budapest Card the price is still derisory about 12 euros adults and 9 euros children. The context is not the best being within a fairly dated structure such as old Italian mutual societies. That said the interior is top although in some places not spotless but clean waters. When you enter it is useless to pay extra for the cabin because you are entitled to a personal Lockers where you can also find cabins. A double outdoor swimming pool with aquatic whirlpools, two outdoor swimming pools (here you need mandatory swimming cap). Inside it is a bit of a maze but there are three thermal pools at various temperatures, four saunas at various temperatures and relaxation areas. You can eat inside (there is a bar) or bring something. You can drink thermal water for free. A lot of toilets are located and here the fact that there is never a queue is a common problem in the world!!!! The deckchairs by the outdoor pool as the world is country come with wipes occupied by the usual early nights often size XXXL. Many elderly people in the morning who probably hope for some miraculous virtue of water guzzling gallons of thermal water but the toilets.... and many subjects with unreasonable sizes Peter Griffin who hope for miracles instead for the silhouette.... can also enter children. Somewhere it was read that children cannot access the three thermal pools but inside there is no prohibition. Hair dryer and hot showers all inclusive. That's nice. Recommendation not to always be recognized as 4 Neapolitan boys who were kicked out for casino. What a fool. Lots of people especially after 4pm. Best time in the morning and early afternoon. To get there you have to from metro stop two Battyany ter immediately take out tram 19 or 41 in three stops leaves you outside the spa.

Loved it, a hot day in Budapest and we cooled down here. Something for everyone. Whirlpool/lazy river, bubble chairs. 2 huge swimming pools and lots of thermal plunge pools. We chose this one because we purchased a 72hr plus card for travelling around and this came with a free visit to the baths. Hat needed for swimming in the main pools, available to purchases for 2000ft from reception.

The thermal baths and pools outside were all lovely, great facilities. However, very hard checking in at reception as someone speaking english, staff repeatedly spoke hungarian in our faces and made no attempt to try help us, gave us dirty looks and sighs as we tried to show our tickets

Difficult to find, no indication of where it is located. Thx to an older lady who helped us. Inside, the attendant was kind to grant us access. Inside it takes some searching for the cabinet and lockers (use). Outdated, but clean if possible. Definitely ok for that price.
