The Lukács Thermal Spa (Szent Lukács Gyógyfürdő) is one of Budapest's less visited, but quieter and more distinctive spas. Located in a nice, intimate setting in a smaller functionalist building, it's never as crowded as the better-known Széchenyi or Gellért baths.
The cheapest accommodation in Budapest
The Lukács Spa is open all year round and is divided into an outdoor area with 2 swimming pools and an indoor area with 6 thermal experience pools where you can enjoy water massage jets, whirlpools and other treatments.
The water in all the pools is fed by a thermal spring and has a temperature of around 30 °C all year round, including the outdoor pools. You can also use the steam baths, saunas, mud wraps and many other services.
As in other Budapest spas, the thermal water here is ideal for treating musculoskeletal disorders.

The spa is open daily from 7:00-19:00.
