I went with my girlfriend and we found the warm baths very relaxing and enjoyable. We made our way to the adventure pool area and noticed the round structure in the middle with many people creating a fast current as they walked through it. We decided to join it. However, at one point, my pinky toe hit one of the jets on the floor of the rounded structure while the current was moving rapidly. The force split my toe open with enough force that part of my toe was hanging off and I could feel that part hanging off and floating from the water. We had to leave immediately and spend the rest of the day looking for medical care. We loved the baths.

We arrived at 9am and went straight in, no queues. Not the friendliest of staff but someone did help us find our cabin which I'd describe as more of a wardrobe than a cabin. Outdoor pool was 38 degrees whilst being -4 outside, not busy at all at 9am so had a good experience. Inside pools were ok, smelt a little but seemed clean, nothing special beyond the fact there's 15 pools. Went back out about 10.30 & outside pool was much busier so def recommend getting there early. Tip - if you can hear it don't take your towels out with you they are either freezing so unpleasant to use or if they get wet they will be ice cubes when you get out.

Our day was very smooth and it was very stress-free because Headout it's so independent and had every information that you needed in their site. So it made our day even better because we've planned it ahead. We just went there showed our ticket and we entered the facilities. Simple as that. The baths were amazing very relaxing and we enjoyed our day. I will definitely recommend booking through Headout is very easy and also cheaper than other sites. I always book everything from Headout because as I said previously, it has all the information that you need and it's so simple.

    The thermal baths were a very interesting experience and I highly recommend them to anyone visiting the city. I advise you to bring towels, otherwise you will have to rent them on site. As for the additional services, in my opinion, priority boarding and the private cabin are not essential. The lockers are perfectly adequate, especially since the baths are closer to the locker area than to the cabins. In addition, several cabins were open, making access less exclusive. The price seemed reasonable to me given the size and the experience offered. The space is very large, with numerous large pools. However, for those who have little time in Budapest, it may be more appropriate to book only a morning or an afternoon, as it is difficult to enjoy everything in a few hours, given the size of the complex. Overall, I really enjoyed the experience. On the downside, I would only mention the friendliness of the staff, which could be more welcoming. Still, it was clearly a worthwhile visit.

    Had a great time at the Széchenyi baths! It's very large, with lots of pools at different temperatures—awesome! I chose the option with a cabin, and I don't regret it. We were given a wristband that gave us access to a cabin area with a closed door where we could change and leave our belongings safely. As for the swimming cap, it's only for the "traditional pool" for swimming, not the other outdoor or indoor pools. Don't forget your flip-flops for walking between the different pools. I recommend it, it's worth the detour!

    The boat ride is disappointing, there is hardly anything to see, and the trip lasts an hour because the boat goes very slowly but you can hardly see anything. The bathrooms are a good experience, but the staff are generally unfriendly, they don't explain anything, and specifically the cleaning staff in the women's bathrooms throw water on the floor while you're in the bathroom and get your feet and shoes wet... With water from the buckets they're cleaning with. This happened when I arrived and when I left, so it's clear that they do this regularly.

    Staff were very friendly and helpful. Every one spoke very good English.. The changing cabins were very roomy and it was yours for the full time at the baths. The thermal baths were very inviting even the air above the pool was warmer. They have a good food and drink cabin.

    We really enjoyed the bathrooms. The interior needs a good renovation: damaged showers, hair dryers that don't work, etc. The exterior is quite nice. In any case, I would stay there again.
