Some great views looking over to the Pest side of the city Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a fan of Szechenyi or Gellert - they're too crowded and expensive in comparison to the others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a fan of Szechenyi or Gellert - they're too crowded and expensive in comparison to the others Went to Szechenyi a few years back and enjoyed it, although I guess it was reasonably crowded. We were going to try Gellert this time as we’re just across the bridge from it. Which would you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szechenyi baths has had quite a makeover in recent years, although it costs a few quid more than it used to. But there's plenty there to keep you occupied for several hours now. Haven't tried it but if anyone is there on the Saturday night they turn it into a nightclub from 10:30pm to 3am! http://szechenyispabaths.com/sparties/ I've been to the Gellert baths a few times. The swimming pool bit is nice, but the thermal section was split into male and female areas which wasn't the best (this was 15 years ago mind you). I remember going to the Lukacs baths too, it was much cheaper but not as well set up for non-locals. Outside of summer when the outdoor strands open up I'd recommend Szechenyi as being the best experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I eventually finished a blog post on Budapest baths, which I think is a reasonable overview http://www.greengoulash.com/thermal-spa-budapest/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
