Massage for pregnant women
Unfortunately, no thermal bath in Budapest offers pregnancy massage in the baths to avoid any potential medical complications. Even if you are in absolutely perfect health condition with your baby, the bath management cannot take the risk of unexpected complications / urgent resolutions to keep you and your baby safe from harm. We are sorry that we cannot spoil you when you would deserve the most.
In a similar vein, there are several pools in the baths which contain hot water (between 33 and 40 degrees Celsius, the upper end of which, is not recommended for pregnant mothers.
In short, massage treatment is not available for pregnant moms in Gellert Spa.
Hot thermal water is not suitable for pregnant moms.
During pregnancy please keep consulting with your doctor whenever you intend to visit public baths, shared pools. Pregnant women are kindly asked to consult with their doctor /OBGYN if they can bathe in the thermal waters in Budapest too, and what – if any – precautions they need to make before entering the pools.
All visits to the baths and its facilities are at the responsibility of visitors, including pregnant mothers. We apologise for any potential inconvenience. You will find that some private spas do offer pregnancy treatments in Budapest, even if not the major thermal baths.
Is everything truly booked out through January 7? That is what it tooled like online? Also, are there any special hours December 31 through January 4? Finally, can private changing and storage cabin be shared by family members?
Dear Rob,
Unfortunately, there will be no fast track entries, cabins (changing cubicles) or massages sold during the upcoming Winter Holiday Season (between Dec 24, 2019 – Jan 7, 2020) based on a managerial decision. Please note that the baths will be open, however, we kindly suggest that you go there early because tickets/massages will be sold on the spot on the first-come-first-served basis. Yes, cabins can be shared.

Hello,
I would like to get a birthday Voucher for my hungarian friend. How do I complete the booking without given a certain date? I prefer the Harmony Massage for her. Can I pay with credit card/paypal?
Thank You
Dear Eda,
Please buy a ticket/massage, and when booking, in the comment section please write “open-dated gift voucher”. Please also let us know who is it for. Then, we will email you an open-dated gift voucher, which will be valid until the end of this year.
Should you have further questions, please contact us.
Why are you phasing out the mud treatments? What does limited availability mean? Are they still available for a period of time? If so, how do I book it?
I gave my wife a trip to Budapest as a birthday present last year especially to experience the mud baths and now that we’re planning the trip for the end of April that might not be possible 🙁
Hello Jesper,
Unfortunately, it was a decision of the management and we are not aware of the exact reasons. The mud treatment might be available online at a later time. As a replacement please kindly consider choosing a Refreshing massage, where similarly stronger massage movements relax the deep tissues.
I am sorry that I could not be more helpful at this moment.
Due to the cornavirus and travel restrictions and recommendations, would you be willing to offer a refund or at least a voucher to be used at later date within the year. We are bokked in April but will not be making the trip to Europe at this time.
Hello Jennifer,
Thank you for your comment.
Please kindly and urgently send us an email as a direct reply to your confirmed ticket for your reservation. Based on the time stamp and the original date of your visit we will respond with information about any potential refund, or open date voucher options. Please reply urgently as within 2 days of the date there is little we can do (the Terms and Conditions are strict about the Refund Policy).
We are sorry that you cannot come to Hungary at this point, and hope to welcome you at the baths later when things are back to normal, and you can have your well deserved thermal relaxation.
