Customer reviews of «Historic Thermal Baths» tours in Budapest

excellent venue, would recommend getting there early as loungerw fill up quickly once it gets busy. only tried the small cafes on the side of the lockers and couldn't complain about food. they do follow strick rules in the pool no food or drink in the pool and if you want to swim lanes the. make sure your planting a swimming cap.

Our first time visiting the Baths and we loved it. It was a Friday afternoon so it was quite busy but we managed to find a lounger and have a dip in the pools. I would highly recommend getting a cabin, they were great for getting changed in and easy to leave your belongings. We didn’t make it to the Palinka Tour, however the baths are a must see in Budapest!

We had such a fun day at the Thermal Baths, it’s definitely a must do if you have a full day, and want to sit and relax. There are lots of different baths to choose from, and they all vary in temperature. Favourite thing about our holiday, and good price for it!

Absolutely brilliant, the outside pools were so much fun, all the thermal pools amazing, the best sauna’s I have ever been in, just need to people aware, no cash accepted, card only, fortunately I could use my phone to make payment as I had left my credit card in the room safe, but loved it.

Overall the baths were very enjoyable and relaxing. We went in late September so it was not nearly as busy as some of the reviews mention in the summer however it was a little cooler and did rain for a bit. Definitely would recommend checking this out

Great place to visit whilst visiting Budapest even in the cold of winter. While this is a day pass I believe you may have to stay within the baths to obtain this (I may be wrong) while leaving we had to hand our wrist bands back. A cafe is located in the baths. Outdoor baths were amazing but if you like to achieve cleanliness I wouldn’t recommend the indoor thermal suite as there was a let me say horrible smell. The sauna was also amazing to visit.

A really good experience, the pools were so warm and when the sun was out - it was so nice to be outside in the fresh air! Great to have a cabin to change in and store clothes too. (it was only a few EUR more) The only negative thing was the queue to get the entrance wristband was huge and so it took about half an hour to get into the spa! It was a Sunday lunchtime, so maybe it was just a busy day? Would definitely recommend this though, so unique.

We loved our trip. very relaxing once we were in. A little confusing with 'picking up the tickets' as it's the same desk that you buy normal tickets from. All of the private cabins were in use when we got there so they offered a locker instead which was fine. need to take your own towel and flipflops as advised on the ticket info.

The spas are relaxing after a morning of sightseeing . We did have an issue with our voucher . The number was already used and my name showed as being used that day already. The clerk believed me and worked to resolve ( it did take a good 30 mins of our planned spa time though

It was amazing. I had no issues when checking in. If you go at register 3 as they mention it works perfectly. I do recommend getting a cabin. For such a small amount it is worth it. I went straight from the train station with my luggage and it fit fine. Went on Sunday at 12, and it was alright, didn't feel too crowded. You can definitely spend a whole day, also they have food if you want to grab lunch/ dinner, as a vegetarian I was happy to see they have some veggie options as well. Also the palinka tour is lovely and the shot delicious, worth it!

We stayed in Pest and got the metro to the baths which was really easy. When we arrived the instructions given were straight forward on how to get access. The baths did not disappoint, I was with a group of friends, 15 in total. It was a beautiful day, very relaxing and couldn’t believe how many baths there is inside. The time flew, we arrived at 11am and left a 4.30 pm. The sun was out and just enjoyed the whole day. Definitely a must do on your last day to relax after doing lots of walking and Segway tour.

We have visited the spa once before, however using definitely sped things along when we arrived. A fair price, and a great experience … didn’t have the time for the additional Palinka Tour, which would have been good, but maybe next time. Highly recommend

Drinks were expensive and didn’t know how much money you had on your pay card.

Mind blowing, music was gr8, lights, people sufficient drinks too... I had a blast

Incredible experience, lots of great people from all over the world!

Awesome experience and atmosphere! However, the building was undergoing renovation and part of it was closed off, which was not mentioned anywhere.

Really well organised. Better than we expected actually. No queuing which was good though it was probably a quieter time of year

Excessively expensive party. All drinks 15 euros. Pool water full of pee and even some vomit. But I highly recommend this unique experience. The party is scary. 10 ++

Lots of fun Lots of foreigners Drink at 15 euros Pissed and vomited water There is a lot of gnagna So 100% recommended

Lovely traditional spa. Not crowded at all on a Wednesday. Get a private cabin which just a little extra.

Really relaxing day needed after our travelling, I was worried about it being 'too touristy', but that wasn't the case. It was a calm, respectful atmosphere in a beautiful building with amazing thermal baths. The cabins are only a UK sized cubical, but made it much easier to drop things off/get changed etc without stress. Food and drinks cost a bit more than other places, but no more than expected. Everything was clean and well ordered. I spent a lot of time researching the best thermal spa for our stay and I'm glad this was the one I landed on. The sunny weather helped, but being restricted to indoors would be fine too. Note: the wave pool isn't in action, but is a nice outdoor pool. I suggest you go to the steam room then brave the plunge pool to feel refreshed!

Loads of pool, different temperatures from 40 degrees to cold plunges. Not too busy midweek from 10am-1pm when we were there

It’s a beautiful building, calm and relaxing environment. It was clean and very peaceful. Get there early to secure a sunbed with an umbrella. I got a day ticket and stayed for 4 hours. It’s a shame they don’t do half day tickets.

unique experience, lovely spa. it's a shame the sauna and steam rooms were broken on the day of our visit.

It’s an amazing building and I prefer this spa to the Széchenyi spa as it’s smaller and not as busy. It was a shame the outside pool wasn’t as full of water as anticipated. However, it’s a really nice way to spend the day and experience a spa in Budapest. It’s very well organised and clean. If you are planning on using the inside pools you do need a swimming cap, otherwise you are not allowed to get into the pool.

Everything was perfect. Clean, tidy, staff were on it all the time to keep the place up to spec. Food drinks. Highly recommend……do not miss this in your Budapest trip.

lovely spa, quieter than the main one and the private locker rooms are super useful! you need swimming caps to use the indoor thermal bath but outside was nice since it was a hot day. only negative is that there were limited affordable food options, the minimum you will be spending if you are there all day is probably ~10€ on food

very relaxing and beautiful architecture. there are 6 different temperatures to explore. have fun!!

Lovely relaxing day , not too overcrowded and the cabins were worth a little extra. Really enjoyed it . Food awfully overpriced though and drinks were not cheap so take some nibbles ! Lovely welcoming staff too. We coordinated it for the last day of our long weekend and kept cases in the cabin and went straight to the airport at 6pm for our evening flight via an uber for around £25. Totally took the hassle out of of finding a luggage store and getting bus to airport . Perfect relax time after 2 very busy days and very late nights!

A little confusing about where to go around the fabulous venue. This is special I would spend some money and make it way more fabulous. What a gem of a facility

This spa is much more peaceful, more relaxed and better organised with better facilities than Szechenyi definitely recommend this one if only visiting one. It's absolutely huge so make sure you set time aside to fully appreciate it all. Definitely try the dragon fruit ice-cream in the terrace bar. It's all kept really clean and staff are helpful and friendly. Perfect for tired legs and feet after a day of hiking

We arrived around 12.30 pm at the bistro and were asked if we preferred to eat before or after visiting the spa, we decided after although the time was flexible come back to eat. We were then provided with wristbands which scanned you into the spa and which you could use to lock any of the lockers in the changing room. You can use any of the pools in the wellness part, there are plenty of indoor ones but we went straight to the NMG-5QXL-82PO-7N7S where there are sunbeds, a bar and pool. We stayed until approximately 4 pm got changed back to our clothes and headed to the restaurant. The food was lovely, 3 courses, choice of each given. You get a glass of lemonade and a glass of wine. Overall a great experience. Take your own towel and flip flops or the like and if you prefer to eat whilst still enjoying the spa, a light dressing gown or beach cover type thing to wear in the restaurant. If you arrive without a towel and whatnot you might get caught out and have to pay to buy or hire. I look at it as going to the swimming baths here, you would turn up with what you need, dont expect things to be provided. The drinks prices at the pool bar were very reasonable and card only accepted

"The wellness baths are a unique, relaxing and fun experience, blending the old and new of thermal bathing. A slightly disorganised check in & ticket collection. Pay the little extra for access to the different zones. Allow more than 3hours if planning activities either side. Remember you flip flops, towel and swim hat/cap only needed if you want to lane swim in standard swimming pool (or pay 2000HUF on day) Brave the Ice challenges and enjoy!"

Value for money beyond expectations Time at the spa is not limited I was able to have a meal on the rooftop of the restaurant facing the Danube. Very good experience

Delicious meal and excellent service at the bistro. There is a lovely terrace as well as indoor tables with views of the Danube. The baths were well marked with temperatures and instructions and I enjoyed the alternating hot/cold experience. The small rooftop bath has a beautiful view, but it was crowded with amorous couples on the weekend. There was more PDA there than at any other bath in Budapest. It was awkward for visitors who weren’t there for that purpose.

Liked the roof terrace and the Turkish bath, but we almost missed it, we didn't know it existed, the food wasn't very good, unfortunately

the food in the rudas restaurant was fabulous definitely worth a visit

Very good experience, we left very relaxed, the meal consisted of a non-alcoholic drink with first and second courses, dessert and coffee, all very good, I would return again if I return to Budapest.

Restaurant very good, baths very good, but man on ‘casa&online tickets’ desk was rude and unhelpful

More information ahead of time would have helped, e.g. map of the facility, knowing a swim cap was needed for the swimming pool.

A really great day. Enjoyable 45mins with beer in the hot bath before spending a good couple of hours in the rest of the spar. The staff were top draw, helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.

The beer spa and the thermal baths were the grand finale of our Balkan vacation.. For those planning to visit or are already in Budapest, do not miss the opportunity to experience it.

You get what is advertised in this experience. The beer was nice and cold. I noticed other individuals had their beer dispenser run out of beer so they were passing their glasses to the nearby couple to use their beer dispenser. My experience with the staff wasn’t the best. We asked a staff member to take a picture of us but she refused. She said she was busy. Shortly after I saw her on her phone at the front desk.

Something slightly different to try whilst on holiday and 45 minutes felt just long enough. One warning: the beer tap by the tub can be both pushed and pulled to dispense, but one direction dispenses beer and the other only froth - it took us quite a while to figure that one out.

Unique and beautiful experience. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We loved trying all the different spas

We were looking forward to this excursion, and it ended up exceeding our expectations! It’s a bit tricky to find the correct entrance, but the intro email was so helpful with pictures and detailed instructions. The reservation team was very accommodating when we had to reschedule, and we were surprised to have a beautiful private room. The rest of the bath house was really fun to explore, as well. Highly recommend a visit to the beer spa!

"Good fun, clean and well organised. Enjoyed the beer and nice warm bath. The spa itself was lovely too and much warmer than I expected outside. Ignore the comments out it being very busy we found it to be ok"

Very relaxing and great atmosphere, the beer was excellent and great service I would rate it 5 out of 5 , we felt good afterwards 👍

Zsolt was really lovely. Fantastic customer service! Beer pump wasn't working properly so he was back and forth filling up our beer glasses for us! The spa was so relaxing, well worth the money!

The whole thing to be honest, although me personally I would find it difficult to spend all day there. I do think more detail should be put about what is available at the spa and what other costs might be incurred as I had never been to a spa before and didn't know what to expect, I know u could ask the staff at the spa but when I showed the staff my ticket they didn't tell me much about what facilities I could or couldn't use. They had massages and a mud thing that I would've liked to have tried but wasn't sure if it was included in my ticket. The thermal baths, outside pools, sauna, cold plunge pool and steam room was excellent (don't do what I did and not bring a towel or flip flops or will cost 10,000ft in the place itself) flip flops are essential as the floors are slippery. I would highly recommend this.

Me and my husband had a great experience. We never had this kind of spa before. Just to make others clear you don't sit in beer that's what we were assuming. Haha. You sit in the ingredienser of beer brewery in a normal hot tub with unlimited beer on tap. The atmosphere was very cozy. Definitely recommend to try if someone wants to experience it.
