Great time in these pretty thermal baths. The principle of the bracelet that opens and closes the locker is really easy to understand, the little cabin is great and access to the thermal baths is simplicity itself! The outdoor pool is great, even if it is very crowded. The indoor pools are a little disappointing. A bit of upkeep and improvement (repainting, highlighting the architecture...) would not be a luxury, given the price of admission... But clean overall.

Wonderful facilities But I would have liked the tone of people's voices to be lower. I know it was created for the Hungarian citizenship to socialize, but we can all speak in a lower tone of voice. It is perfectly known the rules that we must comply there ... they are super clear and we would not have to be listening to the responsible of the " dick" all day ...but super happy to have been there.

An excellent day! Busy, but we enjoyed it very much. You have to be early to have a chance of a sunbed though. But, if you're patient these are often vacated regularly by other guests so keep an eye out. We were also particularly impressed by the way that they've incorporated modern tech in an aesthetically sympathetic way, such as the cabin locks operated by the wireless armbands.

It's a great spa with many indoor pooos and 3 large outdoor pools. The main pool for laps you need a swimming cap for. There are also various saunas. I went on a Tuesday and it was still packed with people. So expect it to be busy. I booked a cabin changing room as I had a large backpack. It was perfect to leave it. It's locked and secure and great privacy for changing in.

The environment was nice. Lovely view. Too many choices and different experiences. Not too crowded and there were enough sun beds for everyone. We spent almost the whole day there. The only downside was the woman collecting our tags during checkout.. found her quite rude, atleast if you don't understand English, take your time to figure out what we're saying before you start responding out of point and then speaking her language to her colleague and totally ignoring us. That was very rude. Also, it'll be nice if someone can show first timers around and explain some certain things and how they work.. we had to figure everything out by ourselves. But overall, it was a lovely experience. Will recommend this to anyone visiting Budapest. And I'll definitely do it again.

A not to be missed experience. I loved the " Grandeur " of it all. So pleasing on the eye. Baths were good. A bit busy but not too unpleasant. Felt amazingly relaxed afterwards. BUT. I didn't know that I needed a towel. And to buy/hire on is expensive. Didn't know that you needed a swimming hat/cap to swim in main pool. To buy one again is an unnecessary expense. Won

If you are in Budapest you can't miss it, we have been there for a week and to end the trip there is nothing better to leave relaxed. We have chosen the most common thermal baths, but any will do.

Széchemyi Spa was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted with a sense of tranquility and luxury. The spa had a wide variety of indoor pools, each with its own unique feature. We spent hours moving from pool to pool, enjoying the soothing warmth and healing properties of the mineral-rich waters. The highlight of our visit, however, was the outdoor pool. It was the perfect temperature and we were surrounded by the breathtaking natural scenery. As we floated in the warm water, we couldn't help but feel completely at peace and rejuvenated. Overall, the Széchemyi Spa was a truly amazing experience that we would highly recommend to anyone in need of relaxation and pampering.

Audio-guided tour of the Parliament Building in Budapest lasting only 50 minutes. Few rooms could be visited, in a rather limited itinerary, but what we saw was certainly interesting and flashy. We were given an appointment 45 minutes before the entrance for paperwork to be done, so arm yourself with patience for the wait. The exterior part of the palace is definitely more eye-catching, and the interior tour is reductive and limited, compared to the large size of the palace. The royal crown room is not photographable.

It's clean, the boat's on time, the drinks are a bit expensive, but that's OK...You can stay in the "room", go out on the back deck or the patio below the boat. You can move around freely and the staff are all smiles. A very good experience. Thank you very much!

Good experience, the baths are as they were but still comfortable and pleasant. Not very crowded in the morning and very friendly staff. However, I think the price is excessive... but it's still a must-do in Budapest.

We enjoyed a relaxing morning at the Gellert Spa. With our tickets already booked in advance, getting in went very smoothly. We found it very convenient to have our own private cabin, where we could leave our belongings and have access to them at all times. We were kindly escorted to our cabin by the staff. The Spa itself was wonderful to be in. It was quiet and we were able to relax. Highly recommended!

A good time was had by all, both inside and out. The place is quite extraordinary. Be careful, though: you'll need a bathing cap for the large indoor pool.

Gellert Baths was so lovely relaxing. We were blessed with beautiful sunshine in March and spent ages chilling in the outside thermal pool as well as the inside ones, sauna, steam room and plunge pool. The cruise was only a short walk away. It was an enjoyable experience but it would've been better if we'd have had a tour guide.

Good, but stench in the changing rooms. One of the outdoor baths closed but not specified. Non-respect of certain customers who discuss at high volume when regulations require silence, this should be controlled.

Unfortunately, the outdoor pool was closed, and I only learned about it after I purchased my ticket (full price) online. The pools close at 6:40 p.m., and despite the short notice and the few cubicles in the locker rooms, the staff demanded that at 7:00 p.m. all customers be out of the facility. Tip: Either close the pools earlier or give the clients time to change.

I would have liked the cruise to have included either audio guides or that during the cruise there was an explanation of what was being seen.... So it was just a river tour (not being accompagnatinle visit....!) somewhat disappointing tour. Also no one had told us that we had to download the app x have some sort of audio guide!

Very beautiful and impressive, polite staff various pools with different temperatures, lockers with electronic lock, open until 19h but I recommend no more than 4h I only regret that the most beautiful outdoor pool was closed for work and not indicated when booking. Bring bathrobe because in the outdoor paths there is too cold and of course bathing cap and slippers. The bar in the haul has excellent pastries and coffee at modest prices, not suitable for those who hate promiscuous environments. Cleanliness 8/10 . Booking online is better skip the line.

Online booking is efficient. The indoor pool and hot tubs are pleasant, with a choice of progressive temperatures. A little more light would be appreciated. Disappointed by the outdoor pool not in use and too many people in the hot tub. Overall, a good experience.

The venue is beautiful but the signage was not easy to navigate at all which I expected from the reviews I'd read. We had to do a lot of exploring to find everything as it isn't obvious what is available and where it is. The changing rooms were filthy. There were dirty plasters and even blood over the floors which wasa real shame. It was a little crowded but we did go on a Saturday afternoon.

We took the combo of spa and cruise. The spa we did as we arrived, it was not far from our accommodation. We chose with cabins, small private changing rooms. Several mini thermal pools of different temperatures, another pool that is the famous one in the photo, sauna, steam bath.... And finally, the outdoor thermal pool. All a marvel, we went in November and we felt like a lot of warm water watching the moon. The cruise we did the next day in the afternoon, already at dusk. Very nice, all illuminated and the boat was not even noticeable, it seemed to float, with its heating and everything. A success. Thank you very much

Very expensive entry ticket, no mention made of the obligation to wear sleepers, so you have to buy them on the spot at €25 a pair ....... In the early evening, only one pool is accessible, so the experience is limited.

Exchanging euros into thier own card is a scam! When we got to know about it we never recharged it again! Otherwise the view of the party is great. Music was great too.
Thomas
Aug 2024Verified booking
Once inside the party its great, but what offsets from "Awesome" on the total experience is the chaos in advance (spent around 1 hour to get to the pool). Separating men and women in different lines leads to women having to wait inside the reception for the men to bring the tickets which cant be separated (so whats the point really?) Instead of all the hazzle with "cash only" is very old fashioned and weird in 2024. You could potensially incease revenues by selling waterproof bags for credit cards as an alternative to that prefilled card that has to be refilled once a customer realises the balance is too low. Never the less, we had a really good time once we got all the way in - but I would have spent a lot more if you accepted credit cards.

Széchemyi Spa was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted with a sense of tranquility and luxury. The spa had a wide variety of indoor pools, each with its own unique feature. We spent hours moving from pool to pool, enjoying the soothing warmth and healing properties of the mineral-rich waters. The highlight of our visit, however, was the outdoor pool. It was the perfect temperature and we were surrounded by the breathtaking natural scenery. As we floated in the warm water, we couldn't help but feel completely at peace and rejuvenated. Overall, the Széchemyi Spa was a truly amazing experience that we would highly recommend to anyone in need of relaxation and pampering.

Good experience, the baths are as they were but still comfortable and pleasant. Not very crowded in the morning and very friendly staff. However, I think the price is excessive... but it's still a must-do in Budapest.

Great time in these pretty thermal baths. The principle of the bracelet that opens and closes the locker is really easy to understand, the little cabin is great and access to the thermal baths is simplicity itself! The outdoor pool is great, even if it is very crowded. The indoor pools are a little disappointing. A bit of upkeep and improvement (repainting, highlighting the architecture...) would not be a luxury, given the price of admission...
But clean overall.

Thought winter was not a good time to go...who knows, came on boxing day, sun shining, and the best experience ever, bath, sauna, and massage. Could do with a pleasant cafe or restaurant.

Once inside the party its great, but what offsets from "Awesome" on the total experience is the chaos in advance (spent around 1 hour to get to the pool). Separating men and women in different lines leads to women having to wait inside the reception for the men to bring the tickets which cant be separated (so whats the point really?)
Instead of all the hazzle with "cash only" is very old fashioned and weird in 2024. You could potensially incease revenues by selling waterproof bags for credit cards as an alternative to that prefilled card that has to be refilled once a customer realises the balance is too low. Never the less, we had a really good time once we got all the way in - but I would have spent a lot more if you accepted credit cards.
