    The best experience in Budapest is definitely the panorama pool. You can see the Danube and the inner city meanwhile you have a nice bath. The whole place is stunning and affordable!

    They're open until 4am on weekends (but stop letting people in at 3 or before). Great nightcap activity; home to the the hottest and coldest pools I've ever been in.

    Try the Wellness pass, views from the panorama pool are just awesome, plus the wellness interior pools are really new. You miss the historic part but the views are worth it.

    Best authentic Spa I visited so far. Over 500 years of history, great value for money and an extremely hot bath for those who want to feel like a boiled chicken.

    Brilliant value for money! Definitely worth a visit, especially at night to see the views of the city! Perfect for couples and really relaxing! Only thing is that the open roof sauna gets quite crowed

    It's is kind of expensive but sauna and swimming pool area are new and clean! Come early so you don't get in the crowd at noon. The outdoor pool is stunning!

    Much less touristy than Széchenyi, feels like more locals, less instagraming going on. Great variety of saunas and pools. It’s fine to bring your own towel, suit, and sandals, but can also buy there

    This spa is split into two halves, wellness which has two parts and swimming. You can buy a ticket for either. The second half of wellness closes earlier than the first, at about 8pm!

    Absolutely fantastic after the renovation, and if you come at 6:00 am, you'll likely have the baths all to yourself.

    Some days only male or only female. Actually just the turkish part is worth it, because it’s extraordinary. Otherwise there is a pool and a jacuzzi on the roof top.

    Mix of old and new makes the atmosphere good. They speak English at desk and bar. Lots to do. You can stay for hours.

    Some illogical solutions, labyrinth-like building, but in exchange you get spectacular city view from jacuzzi, giant sauna, healing thermal water and a good enough restaurant

    Uhhh, be sure to find the actual thermals -- not just the swimming pool :) I almost left after 10 minutes thinking this place was JUST a swimming pool. Terrible signage with no English.

    Money out off the window. Sauna world where you HAVE TO wear swimming suit because otherwise you embarras others. What? You can hear the traffic, no music, loud talking, six chairs for all saunas 👎

    Even with combination ticket (sw.pool+thermals) they gave us just lockers instead of own cabin. Aroma relax massage is without aroma, just oil. Sometimes not even full body.

    You have to run around the whole bath to find what you want because of their stupid cages. It's all sad and the wellness section is small.

    Go for the water massage - masseurs look like retired lumberjacks and have at least as much force in their hands!

    Do not ever go there, just have my iPhone and my purse with all my documents stolen from the locker there. As the police said, it happens once per week. Huge disappointment.
