Hello,
Me and my boyfriend would like to come to Gallert on Friday March 2.
Is it necessary to book online or can we show up at the Spa and buy the tickets there? Is there any discount on online tickets vs tickets purchased at the Spa?
How many saunas/turkish bath do you have? Are they included in the standard Spa ticket or is there an extra fee? How much is it?
I see you talk about special deals for couples (for example with massage), however I do not find anything about it on your website. Could you kindly give me information about that?
Thank you!
Dear Anita,
we suggest the online bookings so you can skip the main queue and check in at our HelpDesk. If you wish to have a massage as well, please book in the next days, as the appointments are normally booked up in advance. Yes, you can use all the 3 saunas and steam rooms with the entry tickets. Please note, that Gellert Baths is not a Turkish bath (Kiraly or Rudas baths are Turkish baths).
The couple’s massage deals called double massages and you can book them on the link below:

Hello,
Are any of the pools suitable for a pregnant lady? Also, do you have any treatments available suitable in pregnancy?
Thank you
Dear Jo,
thank you for your email.
Most of the indoor and outdoor pools in Gellert Spa contain hot water (between 33 and 40 degrees). It is not recommended for ladies who are expecting a child.
As for the massages, unfortunately, there is not any thermal baths in Budapest that offer pregnancy massage. The reason behind this is to prevent any potential medical complications that may occur. It does not matter whether you are fit and perfectly healthy with your baby, no management can take any risks of unexpected complications. Thank you for your understanding.
In short, massage treatments cannot be booked by pregnant ladies in Gellert Spa.
Also, the hot thermal water is not healthy during pregnancy.
Please keep consulting with your doctor if you wish to visit any public baths, shared pools while being pregnant and please ask them if you can bathe in the thermal waters. Also be clear whether you need to make any precautions before entering any pools and spas.
I hope I could be of help.
