Hajdúszoboszló turns into a playground for families all year, thanks to Hungarospa’s lively lineup for kids at the Aqua-Palace Élményfürdő (Adventure Bath). Every Saturday from 2 p.m., the Miki Mini Party takes over the upstairs Gyerekvilág (Kids’ World) level with family-friendly animation, games, and activities that keep little ones buzzing and parents smiling.

Stay Close, Walk Everywhere
One of the best parts of a family weekend in Hajdúszoboszló is convenience: many guesthouses and apartments sit just a short stroll from the pools and slides. There’s a holiday house 400 meters (about 1,312 feet) from the beach area—roughly a five-minute walk—with four separate upstairs apartments: two doubles, one for four, and one for five. It’s open year-round, perfect for multi-family trips or grandparents coming along.
If peace and quiet are high on your wish list, pick a spot in the garden district of the resort area, where silence and calm are part of the package. From there, the Medical Spa (Gyógyfürdő) and Béke Baths (Béke Fürdő) are just a few minutes on foot, ideal for those combining playtime with healing treatments.
Right by the Action
Prefer being in the thick of it? There’s a pension next to the airport, 100 meters (328 feet) from the main beach, and 400 meters from both the Aquapark and the newer Extreme Slide Park. The Árpád Pool and Hungarospa therapy building sit nearby, offering a full menu of therapeutic treatments for anyone needing a restorative boost.
Alice Apartment (Alice Apartman) Hajdúszoboszló, a family-style apartment house opened in 2010, sets you up in a quiet setting close to the beach, thermal spa, and of course Aqua-Palace. Other modern apartments on Kölcsey and Major streets sit just 100–200 meters (328–656 feet) from the beach entrance, with restaurants, a market, and grocery stores around the corner.
There’s also an apartment house that opened in June 2009, 200 meters (656 feet) from the beach and just 150 meters (492 feet) from the bus station—handy if you’re arriving by public transport.
For Families, Big and Small
If you want total calm, a guesthouse tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac offers zero through traffic, free courtyard parking, and a shared breakfast kitchen. Another option in the heart of Hajdúszoboszló puts you only minutes from the Medical Spa (Gyógyfürdő).
For a little luxury, Apartment Evelin (Apartman Evelin) brings a private pool in the courtyard and is only about 200 meters (656 feet) from the baths—comfortable, stylish, and built for families who want to unwind without sacrificing convenience.
Hotels With Wellness On-Site
A centrally placed hotel and restaurant near the Medical Spa (Gyógyfürdő) is 300 meters (984 feet) from the spa entrance and 500 meters (1,640 feet) from the city center, right in the sweet spot of eastern Hungary’s tourist triangle. Another large, family-friendly hotel in the resort zone comes with 107 rooms and its own medical and wellness section. Room types run from classic doubles and triples to 2+2 family apartments, family rooms with bunk beds, and full suites. Expect color TVs, minibars, phones, safes, with some rooms air-conditioned and featuring balconies. All rooms have private bathrooms and toilets.
Eat Your Way Around the Spa
Food lovers have plenty to explore between dips. Kemencés Inn (Kemencés Csárda) in Hajdúszoboszló brings tradition and heritage into a modern setting, with an interior and menu inspired by the old roadside inns of the Great Hungarian Plain. Across from the Medical Spa (Gyógyfürdő), the Lorena Restaurant (Lorena Étterem) serves as a romantic yet polished dining complex. The Major Pension and Restaurant (Major Panzió és Étterem) sits in the quieter slice of the spa zone, about 8 minutes’ walk from the winter entrance and 2 minutes from the summer gate.
The modernized Mirage restaurant invites families, friends, and business partners to check out its fresh, exclusive interiors, a cozy pálinka wall, and a seasonal menu with guest-centric service. Another venue blends a charming restaurant and patisserie, backed by a generous drinks list. It offers 13 room types catering to business travelers, couples, families, and the forever-young, with stylishly appointed rooms and options for either bathtubs or showers.
Terraces, Grills, and Sweet Breaks
Nr. 8 is a friendly spot in the spa zone—come day or night, with kids or friends—and pick from classics or special grill plates. The summer and winter terraces are musts: from April to the end of November, you can grab a table under one of the city’s biggest pavilions, seating around 80, and sip cocktails or winter warmers alongside your meal.
Craving something sweet or a quick refresher? A casual eatery just a minute from the Hungarospa Medical Spa (Gyógyfürdő) entrance serves both savory and sweet crêpes, plus lemonades, cocktails, specialty coffees, and craft ice creams—perfect between slides and saunas.
Simple, Comfortable Stays
There’s also a family-style pension 50 meters (164 feet) from the baths, with two double rooms and eight four-bed rooms, all with unique double-bed designs. Expect spacious rooms with balconies, bathrooms, TVs, and fridges, and a generous continental breakfast on-site. Free, closed parking is available for those arriving by car.
Between the weekly Miki Mini Parties, the unbeatable proximity of stays to pools and slides, and a spread of restaurants and wellness options, Hajdúszoboszló keeps families coming back. Just remember: organizers reserve the right to change program times and dates.
