Step into nearly 500 years of wellness tradition at Rudas Baths, one of Budapest’s most iconic and historic thermal bath complexes. Originally built during the Ottoman era in the 16th century, Rudas combines timeless architecture with modern spa experiences, offering visitors a truly unique escape in the heart of the city.
Marvel at the beauty of the octagonal swimming pool, a masterpiece of Ottoman architecture that remains the heart of Rudas Baths. Surrounded by centuries-old stone columns and illuminated by soft, natural light filtering through the dome, it’s a uniquely atmospheric setting that transports you back in time.
One of Rudas’ most impressive features is its rooftop thermal pool, offering stunning panoramic views over the Danube River and the city skyline. Whether you visit during the day or catch a magical sunset, the experience of floating above Budapest is truly extraordinary and perfect for photos.
While the baths are steeped in history, they also offer modern wellness facilities. From therapeutic massages to steam rooms and saunas, Rudas Baths seamlessly blend historical charm with contemporary spa luxuries, giving you the best of both worlds.
Beyond the warm waters, Rudas Baths is a place to relax, socialize, and reconnect with yourself and others. Join locals and fellow travelers in a tradition that feels like a water-based social club, where wellness, conversation, and culture come together in a uniquely Budapest setting.
Rudas still preserves men-only and women-only days in its historic Turkish section, keeping alive the traditions that once defined bathhouse life. Join locals and experience firsthand how Budapest’s love affair with thermal baths continues today.
One of the features that sets Rudas Baths apart from other thermal baths in Budapest is its traditional gender-specific bathing schedule. While most modern thermal complexes are coed every day, Rudas preserves a centuries-old tradition by offering designated hours for men-only and women-only bathing in its historic Turkish thermal section.

Absolutely! The mineral-rich thermal waters are said to work wonders on various ailments. These waters are like Mother Nature's healing elixir, soothing sore muscles, boosting circulation, and much more.
You'll find Rudas Baths nestled in the heart of Budapest, overlooking the mesmerizing Danube River. The exact address is Döbrentei tér 9, 1013, Hungary.
The mornings are usually quieter, so if you're up for a peaceful soak, the early bird gets the thermal worm! However, any time you choose will prove to be a magical experience.
Remember to pack your swimsuit, towel, and flip-flops (essential for that comfy shuffle between pools).
Rudas Baths have specific days for gender-separated bathing and mixed-coed days. Be sure to check the schedule before you go to ensure you're heading in on the right day for your preference.
The foundation stone of Rudas Baths was laid way back in 1550 during the Ottoman era. Talk about historical hot tubs!
Prepare to be amazed! Inside, you'll find a range of pools, from the main swimming pool to various thermal baths with different temperatures. There's even a rooftop pool with breathtaking views of the city.
You can float away your stress in the warm thermal waters, indulge in a soothing massage, or simply unwind in the steam room. It's your relaxation playground.
Fantastic morning at this spa, the old part beautiful. Attention to cleanliness not to be underestimated. Very nice pool in the panoramic terrace. I recommend going around 9 o'clock
My wife and I really enjoyed the beautiful view from this spa facility, which is also well maintained and above all very cozy and clean. At the end we also enjoyed how smooth and velvety our skin had become. Fantastic.
Everything was top notch, not too crowded, I recommend booking when the Turkish bath is mixed as it's the best part of the baths.
I have indicated good because if I put acceptable it seems that you have qualified it as a bad experience and it is not, acceptable is not bad.
Was here yesterday. Was easy to get to. Know now sees for sure the ticket is cheaper at the box office or online. Don't forget your swim cap if you want to swim. Don't go too late. Otherwise the rooftop is full
The good points: the private cabin system is highly appreciated, plus they're made of wood with a lot of character. The old part of the building, with its magnificent dome and subdued lights of different colors, is very pleasant and typical. Cleanliness is acceptable. You need to go early in the morning, as it's very crowded. Weak points The welcome is not warm, and you have to insist on asking for explanations. The modern part is nice, but it's nothing different from other similar places.
Very nice, well organized and clean
Ticketig simplevery relaxing quiet surroundings, staff very helpful.

Beautiful views, good service. For me it was a little crowded and I would've liked to know a bit more about what I was seeing (for this reason definitely bring headphones so you can use the app!)
Despite a very low occupancy on our Danube cruise, the crew set off and made our stay a wonderful experience.
Easy to find the starting point. Nice audio guide. Good views
Very kind and helpful shipboard staff. The cruise was beautiful and the sunset was a magical moment for us as a couple. Highly recommended

The Budapest Danube River Sightseeing Cruise was absolutely amazing! The atmosphere was relaxing, and the drink selection was nice. The staff was friendly and everything was well-organized. A perfect way to experience the beauty of Budapest! Highly recommend!
Beautiful views, 8:20pm time slot was perfect timing for both sunset and lights. Comfort on board was great, comfy seats, very impressive staff, good views and toilets available. Quite expensive for only an hour. I'd hope for the option of a second drink/ 30 mins longer or so to really make it worth the money for the later time slot
My wife and I really enjoyed the beautiful view from this spa facility, which is also well maintained and above all very cozy and clean. At the end we also enjoyed how smooth and velvety our skin had become. Fantastic.
friendly staff and the boat ride was pleasant. only flaw: the boat without the roof, so all uncovered on the seat deck, it is better to evaluate it in the evening hours.

Despite the rain, the tour was an experience. The way the explanations were given by 2 people (female/male voice) and the assignment to the places Pest and Buda was very pleasant and entertaining, better than "look left - look right".) Sufficient facts were given, information was not too extensive and therefore guaranteed to be remembered for longer. As it was a birthday present, the drink of choice was a goodie.

I like the headout mobile app. Is very easy to find and by tickets. In a few minutes you have every information on email and the tickets in app for use.
A beautiful boat with live music and dancing to combine with the tour. Impressive Budapest at night. The prices of the drinks were surprisingly cheap. I advise you to book directly with them, the intermediary companies have very little shame and give you a place even if there is none, as happened to us. Fortunately at the counter they solved the problem.
A wonderful experience, the pity not having a table outside ,we had to do the tour inside.they were late madia hours and with time in advance they warned me about it.Myy recommended.
Very nice, well organized and clean
I enjoyed the cruise. Very friendly staff. The monuments are magnificent. And the drinks were top-notch.
Beautiful experience, definitely worth doing

The tour, although it is only for the 4th floor, is very nice and gives us some history of the town and its main building. We had a hard time finding the guide but finally managed. You don't have to enter the lobby where you get tickets to enter the museum and palace but outside the palace itself, in the square just outside the revolving door on the city side, not the Danube side. Courteous Manuel and colleague to call us by phone. Eventually visit done!
Good organization, we quickly went through the paperwork to enter. With the audio guide in Italian we were able to follow the visit carefully. A good experience to recommend.
Pre-visit communication (emails, app, etc.) is very clear. No problems encountered during the various tours The audioguide is practical, especially on the Danube, we learned a lot and the evening lights are magnificent!
Hungarian Parliament is a must see of the city od Budapest. The audio tour is well organizaed and lasts enough time to see the most important places inside the building. The experience with Headput was very positive and it was very east to get the tickets following the clear instructions and reminders provided. It is definately recommended.
Very informative with audio guides explaining aspects of each room we entered. So much history, was great to learn about the domestic and the different leaders.
The location was respectable. Very comprehensive tour with very good organization. I highly recommend it for those who are in Budapest !
The tour is well organized, even as far as check in is concerned. The parliament building is amazing and really worth a visit!
We followed a guard with the audio guide for the French translation. The text gives all the details of the rooms we pass through, but is concise enough not to lose the viewer. From the staircase to the press room, where all the trades are represented thanks to the statuettes that adorn the top of the walls, from the corridors to the hemicycle room where the European representatives sit, the Parliament is Hungary's real treasure.
Everything was very organized, we arrived and they were waiting for us, they gave us the tickets and we took the guided tour. The interior of the parliament is beautiful, even more so than the exterior.
Profesional guide, atmosfere. Would recommned.
The inside of the parliament, what to see....
A great experience from start to finish 100% recommendable
I loved how well-organized the tour was and how knowledgeable the guide was.
quality and frequency of information
The entire process and the service...the team made every effort to ensure that the tour was a carefree experience.
Everything was well organized the parliament is beautiful
Good service and timely information
Budapest's Parliament is a must-see. Very well organized visit with audioguide. A must-see.
Visit too short for the price
Uncomplicated, good organization. Top..gladly again
The tour itself was very clear and comprehensive and the building is magnificent. It was confusing at the start to know where to meet the group leader and how the ticketing was organised but once we got tickets and entered, it was straightforward
Rhe ticketing experience is a little awkward and confusing. Basically don't be late or you'll not get in. Why they don't send a QR code with your booking in order to get your ticket, I dont know. But the experience itself was very good and enjoyable.
The Parliament building deserves all respect. The audio guide is very informative and correct. The staff is professional and very well organized.
The ease of booking from the UK using the App to do so then on site in Budapest. The Parliament tour itself was fascinating. I found the cruise OK and am grateful for being able to change my time easily - but I saw other vessels which seemed better suited for sightseeing with better visibilty.
Nice place, nice building. Audioguide is very practical. But the peolpe working there are not very sympathics. It seems they dislike tourists.
Relax at Rudas Spa, then admire Parliament’s grandeur on this culture-meets-wellness day pass.
