The spas are built
over the hot springs or the spring water is taken
directly to the spa center from the natural springs, so
you do not have to dress up and walk over from your
hotels to the spa centers for treatments or bathing in
the natural pools. You can wear your bathing suit and
the robes provided by the spa hotel and get into the
elevator from your hotel room to be taken directly to
the spa thermal centers.
All Hungarian spas have chlorine-free mineral pools of varying temperatures of 28-34 C
(82 -93 F). The hot springs gush to the surface directly from the hot core of the earth at very high temperatures and have to be cooled off to different temperatures suitable for bathing. There is such an abundant supply of hot mineral spring water that the water in the bathing pools is constantly changed. All pools close in the evening around 8 p.m. for
additional cleaning overnight and reopen at 7 a.m.
