Take time to visit the beautifully constructed Széchenyi Thermal Bath, the largest medicinal bath in Europe. The thermal water flowing at this spa comes from two springs and contains natural healing elements that are said to help lessen inflammation, joint illnesses, and other medical problems. Stunning Neo-Baroque buildings built in 1913 surround the outdoor pools, which are filled with steaming hot water. Watch locals playing chess, step into the indoor pools, take a seat in the saunas and steam rooms, or schedule a massage for the full spa experience.

Lovely place, pools indoors and outdoors are nice temperatures. Remember to bring flip flops with you for walking around in especially indoors. The cafe area is decent, had a lovely beef stew there. Would also recommend getting a cabin to get changed in though. Its great you can be there all day to 8pm too with the one entrance fee. Definitely worth a visit.

We almost didn’t come here because it was getting close to the closing time. BUT, we’re so glad we did because it was a great way to unwind after a few days of intense waking from city to city. Be sure to check the website for times and prices. Lower prices on weekdays and certain hours. Locker bracelet to lock and unlock is provided when renting a locker. Definitely bring flip flops and towels or you can rent them but it seemed pretty over priced for us. Hair dryers are available in the locker rooms as well as showers. They ask people to leave the pools 15 minutes before closing time which is just enough time to change and freshen up. There are also options for massages and medical spa if you choose. We paid for entrance when we got there so you don’t have to do it online. They also take card. Overall it was a great experience. The temperature in the outdoor pools were just right even when the air temperature was a bit chilly. It didn’t smell sulphuric but it was a bit humid in the indoor pools. The space in the locker rooms and the pools were clean and convenient. My husband and I loved our experience and we would totally do it again if we find ourselves back in Budapest.
