Highly recommend cabin for privacy - First time user; never experienced baths like these before. I suffer from muscle spasms in my lower back.
I chose to go with the cabin option and I’m so glad I did. The cabin is a small dressing room. Lockers do not have a private area to change. If you desire privacy, the cabin is the best choice.
The pools were different temperatures, and we tried a cooler temperature first, but ended up at the hottest, then stepped down to cooler. The time spent in the hottest pool really helped my back. I was very relaxed when I left the last (coolest) pool.

Thermal Bath Visit - Great experience. Clean and well organised. Cabin allocated operated by wrist band. Water really warm. You can buy tones and towels there. You must wear flip flops and to use the swimming pool you need to wear a swimming cap.

Beautiful - Magnificent!!!
I can't wait to return.
Very reasonable prices but, you need to bring flip flops as it is mandatory. You need a head cap if you want to go into the main swimming pool and your own towel or else, it's quite pricey to purchase these.
You can grab a drink and some tasty food upstairs and it's lovely! Very relaxed.
The building itself is beautiful.
The hot pools are amazing :) especially the hottest one.
The steam room is like nothing I have ever experienced. Extremely hot.
Would recommend 10/10

Gellert Baths - worthwhile! - The baths were lovely, a bonus was sn outside pool was open- very warm and very nice on a snowy day.
One very beneficial thing to do was that wr had booked a ticket with a cabin- this meant being and to change and leave belongings safely locked whilst in the baths.
The only negative- on entry thd receptionist did not seem to like that I had 9 adults on 1 ticket, and 1 adult on another. She had to call and validate tickets, get QR codes? She gave me 9 wristbands, not 10-I explained we were missing one but she was adamant I had received 10. She said one of us had 2 which was nonsense. Eventually they realised it was there mistake! They were not particularly friendly to us.
Despite this small issue we had a lovely time there and we would all recommend going there. Thank you Viator!

Nothing special. The... - Nothing special. The thermal pools aren't really but just plain pools with different temperatures of water.

A blast (in every sense) from the past! - Undoubtedly a "blast" from the past. The rooms are beautiful, the Art Noveau style with mosaics and decorations are spectacular... Too bad the cleanliness and hygiene are not at their best.
I recommend bringing a towel, cap and slippers otherwise they should be purchased and cost a lot!

Not great - We found this not a pleasant experience
Outdoor pool closed and whole outside was unkept and dirty
Inside wasn’t much better , smelly in the toilet and shower areas and not pleasant in the actual thermal pools

Bad - Really didn’t enjoy it . thr main outside pool wasn’t open so crammed into side pool. You had to purchase flip flops and caps to use the place. Took ages to get served despite having on line tickets and noone gave us advice on which turnstile to go into. Had to ask a random staff member . Would not recommend.

Not worth using Headout. Do not visit Gellert with children - Never got the tickets I ordered and had to buy new on site. I booked tickets for his Headout Budapest. I responded that I did not get confirmation mail immediately, also searched in Spam. I reassured myself that they probably came before the hi went there, 3 days later at 9 a.m.
When we get to Gellert and I'm gonna find the tickets, there's nothing on Mail.
My daughter is also trying to search my Mail, nothing.
So we had to buy new ones.
After the spa, at 16.58 comes the mail with tickets!
I complain to Headout, but they refuse. They say it was sent on time. I show screenshot of the email that has arrived and the times, but they still refuse.
It was an expensive visit! Children also can not use most of the pools, so we change with paying 230€ for sitting quietly in two pools!!!
