Budapest: Paskál Bath Entry Ticket

About This Experience

This is a whole-day ticket to the Paskál bath in District XIV, covering the thermal and leisure pools, the wellness and sauna world and the family facilities. On-site dining is available inside the complex. Paskál opens 9:00 to 20:00 on weekdays, 8:00 to 20:00 on Saturday and 8:00 to 22:00 on Sunday. The ticket does not include towels, swimwear or spa treatments. House rules are strict and staff monitor them: slippers are obligatory, you must shower with soap before and after using the pools, and a swim cap is compulsory in the swimming pools.

The listing describes indoor and outdoor pools of naturally warm thermal water, a Finnish sauna, a dedicated kids’ pool, water attractions and a playground. The photos show a round indoor thermal pool, a glass pool hall, an outdoor children’s pool and a swim-up bar used in summer. The bath says its geothermal sauna is closing and a salt room will replace it, so check what is open on your date. Adults are not allowed in the kids’ pools and paddle pools, and eating or drinking in the pools is not allowed.

There are only 10 reviews and almost all are star ratings with no text. Most are 5 stars, with one 4 and one 2, and the one short comment says simply very good. The low score gives no reason. With so little written feedback, this page leans mainly on the listing and the bath’s own information, and you should treat the 4.5 average as an early signal. Read the house rules below before you go, since they are what the listing stresses most.

This suits families and travelers staying in Zugló or near Széchenyi who want a modern bath with fewer tourists. The listing marks it unsuitable for children under 3. Under-14s may use medicinal pools only with a doctor’s prescription, so younger children will mostly use the kids’ and leisure pools. On dates we checked in late October 2026 this ticket cost about $28. The listing shows a 4.5 rating from 10 reviews. If you want a historic domed bath, choose Rudas or Széchenyi.

Sunday is the evening option here, with opening to 22:00, and Saturday opens an hour earlier than weekdays. Pack a swimsuit, towel, slippers and a swim cap, since none are included and staff enforce the house rules. Payment on site is by card only. The bath is reached by trolleybuses 77 and 82, so plan your route before you set out. Our guide to Budapest thermal baths with kids compares Paskál with Palatinus and the other family-friendly baths.
