Travelling alone | 70–79 | 12–16 days

The combination of a thermal hotel with a wide range of treatments and festive Budapest was just what body and mind needed in the grey days of November.

From very good to mediocre

A good stay, but there are things that could be improved.

We had a lovely week in a good hotel.
