Hévíz turns winter blues into steam-kissed bliss from January 5–11, 2026, with a city sightseeing break paired with a wellness stay at Bonvital Gastro & Wellness, an adults-only hotel at 16–18 Rákóczi Street. Set steps from the famed Thermal Lake Bath (Tófürdő), this four-star hideaway offers a grown-ups’ retreat right in the heart of town, perfect for dipping between culture, cuisine, and curative waters.
The star here is Lake Hévíz (Hévízi-tó), Europe’s largest medicinal warm-water lake, wrapped in a park and topped by a delicate mist that hovers above the surface. Indian red water lilies glide across the water, creating that dreamy, otherworldly vibe the town is known for. It’s not just about soaking, though—Hévíz packs a surprising amount of heritage and leisurely wander-spots into a walkable footprint.
