Things to know before booking your Szechenyi Baths tickets

  • Szechenyi Baths entry tickets come with various options. You can choose between a standard entry with a locker or a private cabin for storage and changing. For added convenience, you can upgrade your ticket to include fast-track entry, allowing you to skip the line during morning or afternoon slots.
  • All tickets provide full-day access to Szechenyi Spa's 15 indoor and 3 outdoor pools, sauna, and steam cabins. You can relax for as long as you'd like, making it a great value for those who want to unwind for the entire day.
  • You can maximize your visit by choosing combo tickets that bundle the Szechenyi Thermal Baths with additional experiences like a Danube River Cruise, Hungarian Parliament Audio Guided Tour, or a Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour. These packages offer savings compared to booking each experience separately.
  • All combo tickets allow you to split the experiences across different days, which means you can fully relax at the baths one day and visit the next attraction on another day—maximizing your experiences while saving money.
  • For something truly memorable, opt for the Sparty tickets. These offer access to the famous late-night Szchenyi Spa parties every Saturday, where you can enjoy electronic music and visual shows while soaking in the thermal baths. Combo Sparty tickets are also available that combine a full day at the spa with entry to the Sparty.
  • Popular Szchenyi Therma Baths tickets, especially the Sparty and combo packages, tend to sell out quickly. So, try to book your tickets at least 3-4 weeks in advance to secure a spot on your preferred date and time—particularly on weekends and holidays.
