Stay Your Way
Wellness Hotel Gyula rolls out a family-first welcome all year. It’s set up for history buffs and pool drifters alike, with full board offered at half-board prices on every package, holidays included. If that sounds like a cheat code, it is.
Abbázia Apartment and Studio (Abbázia Apartman és Stúdió) keeps it central—about 164 feet from the Castle and the Castle Bath (Várfürdő)—so you can ditch the car and walk to everything worth seeing or soaking in.
Angelhaus Guesthouse (Angelhaus Vendégház) sits near the Castle Bath (Várfürdő) in a quiet pocket, open year-round for peaceful stays that still keep you close to the action.
Another apartment by the Gyula Castle Bath (Gyulai Várfürdő) is only 164 feet away; the Castle and Boating Lake are a one-minute stroll. It’s designed to tick every box so you don’t have to compromise on space or comfort.
An apartment house on the Élővíz Canal, 328 feet from the summer entrance of the bath, places you 10 minutes on foot from the Castle and the main promenade. Six separate, well-furnished units with a total capacity of 20: perfect for big families or groups of friends.
Hotels with Perks
Aqua Hotel Gyula Superior caters to families and bath-goers, with superior rooms split into living room and bedroom—great for longer stays where you want space and sanity.
Bányai Guesthouse (Bányai Vendégház) invites you to slow down. If quiet is your love language, this guesthouse in one of the South Great Plain’s prettiest towns has your name on it.
Central Apartment (Central Apartman) puts you in the heart of Gyula. The World Clock, fountains, the legendary Hundred-Year Confectionery (Százéves Cukrászda), the Birthplace of Ferenc Erkel (Erkel Ferenc), museums, Ladics House, Petőfi Square, churches, and the bus station are 820–1,640 feet away; the train station is 2,953 feet. Apartments range from a nifty 194 sq ft studio to a roomy 1,184 sq ft spread.
Corso Boutique Hotel Gyula sits in the city’s business and shopping core, minutes from Gyula Castle (Gyulai Vár), the Castle Bath (Várfürdő), museums, shops, restaurants, confectioners, and nightlife. The rear entrance opens straight onto the promenade lined with parks, fountains, and prime people-watching. The wellness area is a sleek reset zone, with a sauna world offering five different types.
Corvin Hotel Gyula & Wellness Apartments (Wellness Apartmanok) suits families and romantics, plus anyone drifting toward the bath. Superior studio or family rooms, living room plus bedroom options, and comfort that doesn’t quit on longer stays.
Coffee, Culture, Cake
At the Almásy Castle Visitor Center, the café pairs nicely with a museum shop open 10 a.m.–6 p.m., closed Mondays, with charming gifts that look good on your shelf or someone else’s.
The Hundred-Year Confectionery (Százéves Cukrászda), serving since 1840, is Hungary’s second-oldest confectionery. Empire-style building, Biedermeier furniture, and classic cakes, parfaits, candies, and ice creams revive the café culture buzz. Restored in 1984–86 to channel Reform Era elegance, it also houses a confectionery museum with period tools. A major 2004 renovation kept this South Great Plain gem gleaming and delicious.
Book It, Taste It
