The Irgalmasok Veli Bej Bath is one of Budapest's hidden gems, offering an authentic Turkish bath experience with fewer crowds than the more famous thermal baths. Originally built in the 16th century during the Ottoman period, this beautifully preserved bath combines historical charm with modern comforts. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing, perfect for a quiet retreat.
Inside, you'll find a central octagonal pool surrounded by smaller thermal pools, steam rooms, and saunas, all fed by natural hot springs. The architecture and ambiance transport you back in time while you unwind in the warm waters.
Admission to Veli Bej Bath is quite affordable, typically around 3,500 HUF (about $10 USD).
Plan to spend about 1-2 hours enjoying the baths and facilities. It’s ideal for anyone seeking a more low-key and historical bathing experience in Budapest.
