Review of Budapest’s Palatinus Spa on Margaret Island, with thermal pools, wave pool, slides, practical tips, prices, and honest drawbacks.
“My wife and i decided to visit the Margaret Island thermal baths on the last day of our short city break which ended up being a Saturday with a very hot/sunny weather forecast. We arrived just before opening and there were huge queues which initially didn't bode well. However once we got through there was so much space in the outside pools that you didn't feel overlooked. The pools themselves were clean and very well maintained. If you want to do serious swimming then bring a swim hat and don't forget sliders/flip flops. There were bars/restaurants there which looked like they were standard fare. After arriving at 9am we decided…”

“Our full-day tour of Budapest with Susan was one of the most meaningful and enjoyable experiences of our trip. From the moment we were picked up, Susan was warm, attentive, and incredibly hospitable. My husband wasn’t feeling well at the start of the day, and she immediately made sure he had everything he needed to feel better—such a thoughtful and human touch. With over 40 years of experience in hospitality and tourism, Susan is a wealth of knowledge. Her deep understanding of Hungarian history and culture made every stop on the tour more engaging.
