Gellért Thermal Bath is historic. Records dating from the 15th century speak of the wondrous waters bubbling up from the earth here. It became the Turks’ favorite site due to the abundance and superior warmth of the water. In the 17th century it was called Muddy Bath (Sárosfürdõ). Now, with newly fitted modern filtration and circulating equipment, it provides virtually every type of service for a medicinal bath, including outpatient hospital and inhalatorium, along with a resident doctor and nurse. Mud packs, massages, and underwater traction are also offered. Besides which, the marvelous Art Nouveau style has been retained and the feeling of opulence and luxury remains.
While the baths are open daily, there are separate thermal baths for men and women, but a mixed gender swimming pool. On Sundays, there are mixed thermal baths as well.
