Neighborhood: Margaret Island
For Budapest, this island between the banks of the Danube represents a green oasis, especially during summer when its emerald spaces are much enjoyed by both locals and tourists. The gardens here are very picturesque; the flowers in full bloom give the landscape a variety of hues; the fountains add an air of freshness, making walks peaceful, joyful and romantic. A leisurely stroll will uncover a variety of sites, even the ruins of a medieval Franciscan church and convent are still visible.

Great place to relax
Jul 2021
Go here on a hot day, get a bed as well and chill for hours. This is a great place, mostly used by local Hungarians, but way better than the more touristic baths in the city. They don't have a lot of lockers though, so don't bring too many valuables. There are extra lockers near the baths though to store your stuff when you go in. Great place overall. Good food options as well. Get a bed in the back of the park, I recommend.

A great day
Aug 2020
A wonderful day out. Great for kids and adults. Spotlessly clean , food good and reasonable prices for a pool- very honest staff- we lost a kindle and headphones there through our own fault, and had them returned after several days. In my m=ind much better than the other baths.,

Kids paradise! Fun and relax for all
Jul 2020 • Family
Inside the isle Margit you can spend your whole day in this place. Slides for all ages, several pools and attractions. It can be reached by bike or public transportation. Food, snacks and small shops with bathing stuff to buy. All affordable prices. Strongly recommend for the summer days and combined with a visit in the island it makes a perfect day for all. Also one thermal bath pool available to experience.

Great Budapest bath for Children
Jan 2020 • Family
After reading a number of reviews for other Baths in the City we were put off to the fact we had two young children. This Bath hit the spot. The Childrens pool was a brilliant temperature and the kids loved it. The outdoor pool was brilliant too and accommodating for children. Some of the pool inside were not Children friendly.Lots of outside pools were closed for the winter but can only get better in the summer

Children Allowed
Apr 2019
I visited Rudas and Gallerth baths but my son was disappointed and he was not allowed in both of them. We cam to know about Palatinus Strand on Margaret Island and decided to try it out.
And good thing that we did try it, first off rates are quite well priced, children are allowed, there is indoor and outdoor pool where they can accompany you, temperature of the pools was quite nice, didn't feel cold even though outside temperature was bit chilly, all in all a very good visit.
Only downside was one of the attendants was very much rude in his behaviour but that maybe entirely upto language (we didn't know Hungarian and he didn't know English)
Now this visit should take 3 hours max but Margaret Island is something you can spend whole day in, so I would highly recommend this over other baths if you have a family.

Nice place
Nov 2019 • Family
We enjoyed some thermal baths with our kids. We all liked it. The thermal waters combined with sauna and steam bath made our day very pleasant. The place is very clean and well maintained. Friendly people as well.

Thoroughly recommend
Aug 2019 • Family
If you have kids, they will love this place. There are lots of different themed pools which were really warm. We were there for over 6 hours and the kids didn't want to leave. Good, tasty and reasonably priced food on site as well.

A great Lido for young children!
Sep 2019 • Family
A really great lido on the quiet island of St Margaret which is good for adults as well as families with children. One can experience the thermal baths whilst the children are enjoying one of the outdoor or indoor pools.
Definitely not to miss!
