Gellert thermal pools, swimming pool, wave pool and spa treatments offer a great relaxation and entertainment all year round. Visit Gellert Spa Bath and experience high quality relaxation at a fraction of the costs you would pay in any western country.

Gellert Bath opened in 1918 offering medicinal water treatments using the same deep underground springs the Knights of St John used in the 12th century, and later on the Turks to feel the invigorating powers of the mineral rich waters.

  2. Hi I’m hoping to visit soon ,but was wondering ,if I book 2 adult ,full day tickets ,do we have lockers for bags,coats,personal belongings etc Kind Regards

  3. I would like to come to the pools and spa with my mother who uses a wheelchair, are both areas accessible? Also can I book pedicures on line? Thank you in advance.

    • Dear Marion,
      It is not uncommon for people using a wheelchair to use the baths. Although not everything is wheelchair accessible, there are several parts in the spa that can be accessed for wheelchair users.
      We warmly recommend a first hand blogger’s (solo backpacker wheelchair user’s) experience shared here, as there are many aspects of the description which are useful for wheelchair users visiting Hungary’s capital (and unfortunately, there are some negative aspects or room to improve too, admittedly):

      Pedicure is only available to book on the spot.
      Have a lovely time in Gellert Spa, and enjoy the thermal waters of Budapest.

  6. Hi
    I want to book for 1/1/2020 but I cant choose these day on your calendar

    how can I book for that date ?

    • Dear Shrouq,
      Thank you for your comment.
      Unfortunately, there will be no fast track entries or cabins (changing cubicles) 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.
