Best spas in rural Hungary 2022- PRICE LIST, PHOTOS

With the arrival of hot summer weather, spas and beach baths are becoming more and more appealing. However, as the government has lifted the ban on price increases for spas, several of them have raised prices during the summer. Here are the latest prices of the most popular spa complexes and beaches in the country.

1. Hajdúszoboszló Hungarospa, Aqua Palace

Opened in 2010, the Aqua Palace on 15,000 square meters offers a unique atmosphere and an extremely wide range of services.

One of the most beloved parts of the spa, the Mediterranean beach is considered as the largest built pool in Central Europe with its 6,200 square meters of water area.

The Hajdúszoboszló Hungarospa is the perfect place for the whole family: while parents enjoy the peace of the exclusive pools, children can play on the pirate-inspired beach. In addition, guests might try the foam-show, too – a real specialty of the place.
