Relaxation in the Széchenyi Thermal Baths
The Széchenyi Thermal Baths are a must-do experience for those looking to relax in Budapest. This complex, built in 1913, is one of the largest spas in Europe, with 18 thermal pools, saunas, steam baths and spa treatment areas.
Széchenyi’s thermal waters, which come from underground wells, have medicinal properties and are rich in minerals that are beneficial for the skin and muscles. It’s common to see locals playing chess in the outdoor pools, even in winter, when the experience is made magical by the contrast between the warm water and the cold air.
Local tip
Bring your own swimming costume and towel to avoid extra charges. If you visit in winter, don’t miss the experience of swimming in the snow.
Plan your SPA day
Combine your visit with a stay in our flats, where you will feel as relaxed as in the thermal baths.
