Veresegyház keeps the calendar buzzing year-round with culture, nature, and easygoing wellness. Hike the lake system’s reed-fringed paths or wander the nearby Gödöllő Hills. Theater lovers can settle into the Veres 1 Színház lineup and the open-air Mézesvölgyi Nyár in July and August. Swimmers get five lanes in a sleek, modern pool with a sauna on the side. And yes, there’s a striking new Catholic church worth a visit. See you in Veresegyház!

Wellness, Fasting, Fitness

Where to Stay
Libra Hotel*** sits in the heart of Veresegyház, steps from the lakes and just off the M3—about 20 minutes from central Budapest. Expect a cozy wellness section, rooms made for lingering, a conference hall for meetings that don’t feel like chores, and the Libra Restaurant gazing out over the main square. Three stars, full comfort, year-round calm. Think soft beds, friendly touches, and the kind of lobby you don’t rush through.
Eat & Drink
The revamped Termál Étterem ups the comfort: expanded air‑conditioned dining room, non‑smoking space, a bowling lane, smooth service, reasonable prices, clean rooms if you stay, and a parking lot big enough for buses. Events up to 80 guests? They’ll run it. Brides and grooms get a choice of wedding menus without sticker shock.
Menus around town mix Hungarian classics with international twists. Expect bright, eclectic plates from top ingredients, familiar Magyar flavors alongside playful global ideas in a fresh, modern style. Bars pour wide—alcoholic and alcohol‑free—plus quality coffee and tea, house‑made lemonades, and an ever-refreshing premium cocktail list. From early spring, claim a seat on a sunlit terrace with a glass of wine or a premium gin and tonic and call it therapy.
Local Favorites
Find carefully prepared plates right in the town center in a warmly lit dining room built for long conversations. At Ivacsi Lake, a true old‑world csárda vibe spills over checkered tablecloths—homey, family‑style, with fish dishes front and center and plenty more beyond the nets.
Holdfény Étterem offers calm surroundings and friendly staff, specializing in weddings, birthdays, friends’ nights, company events, and class reunions—basically any party with a guest list. La Bella Étterem és Pizzéria keeps it classic, while Marika Konyhája has been a local hero for over 20 years, serving daily menus and à la carte, plus catering for family and corporate gatherings, sports events, and weddings.
Sweet Things
Cake lovers, take note. An expansive selection covers every occasion, with photo albums to browse designs or the option to go fully custom.

One More Lake Dream
There’s a place dreamed up around a lake with reeds, a bridge, ducks, soft beds, terrace suites, and a kitchen perfumed with fresh cakes—hardworking hands turning out dishes for happily hungry guests.
