Karos Spa is a good choice for treatments. The buffet food is varied and tasty too. There’s something to suit everyone’s taste. It’s a little annoying when they start clearing away half the buffet at 9.45. (One time, the staff were already trying to clear away my breakfast at 9.50....) The Superior Plus rooms leave nothing to be desired, even if the tiny balcony, about 1 sq m, seems to have been squeezed out of the rest of the room.... Unlike some other guests, I think it’s good for sustainability that rooms are only cleaned on request and towels aren’t changed all the time. If you want that, you’ll have to pay for it. I wouldn’t recommend visiting in the peak summer season if you’re sensitive to noise, as there are very, very many children around. September was fine, as the school holidays in Hungary were over. But there were lots of young parents with toddlers. I’m only giving it 4 stars because there’s just one thermal pool, and that’s the only place where you can find some peace and quiet. The whirlpool was always overcrowded, and toddlers wearing armbands were running around and diving between the other bathers there too. What really took away from my chance to relax was the fact that my room was on the 5th floor, the top floor, and nobody mentioned that repair work was being carried out directly above it (probably on the roof). That meant almost constant drilling, hammering and so on from 8.00 to 16.30, Monday to Friday. They presumably think that spa guests spend as little time as possible in their rooms during those hours because of their treatments..... And one more tip: if you have problems with your back and/or legs, it’s better to book a room with a shower. Showering in the bath can be tricky.

We liked the spacious bathing area, as well as the large, well-laid-out restaurant – both also offered opportunities to find a quiet spot.
