Fantastic day which started at the wonderful spa which is located next to Hero’s square. The spa was wonderful, clean, historic and a great way to relax. The cabins to change in were quite charming and also acted as a locker for your bags and clothes. The outside thermal pools were amazing even though the outside temp was a bit chilly. The indoor steam rooms, cold plunge pool ( which literally took our breaths away), salt room and crescent pool remind me a roman history lesson. We stayed here for approximately3 hours then ambled across to the park/ castle with some great statues, gardens and a lovely cafe (called anonymous) overlooking the lake where we sampled a goulash and was very well priced. After a short break back at hotel, we then made our way to the dinner cruise which is fully recommended. An absolute joyous evening with traditional music, dancers and three course meal. You even get serenaded at your table where they will play any requests ( moon river, titanic theme tune were quite popular). Our waiter was Mr invisible however and o ly was seen at the start and end of the evening which was the only disappointment of the evening. All in all, a very good way to spend a day in Budapest!
