Hotels on Balaton lake in Hungary

Beautiful spot Beautiful pool and great location by the lake. Also, food was very nice quality. The staff were helpful. Wish we could have stayed longer!

otel Aura is conveniently located within walking distance of Lake Balaton, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing getaway. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable, providing everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The dinner options were excellent, with a variety of delicious dishes to choose from. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Hotel Aura and would happily return.

I stayed here for 3 nights with my mom. Here is my experience: Property and Location: The property seems relatively new, well maintained and clean. Location is great, walkable and safe. There are options for food, shopping and activities. Also, there are two shores of a lake (Balaton) close by for swimming and other activities. Food: We had half board (breakfast and dinner) included with our stay...

The hotel is Best. Room is perfekt, super of food, the service is great, the steak & cake excellent, waiters in the bar of drinks professional. Visit - everybody! N 1!

Overall, the hotel made a good impression – it's well-maintained, with a very pleasant terrace and pool area. Breakfast and dinner were served partially as a buffet – in the morning there was bread, cheese, cold cuts, vegetables, and fruit, plus the option to order from a fixed menu (around 8–9 dishes). Dinners also had a partial buffet (soups, salads, starters, desserts), and a daily-changing menu...

We had a chill weekend here, relaxing in the pools and saunas, and eating way too much delicious food.

We stayed for 5 nights in the new wing. The room was great — large and spacious. What I really couldn’t understand was that the TV was placed on a stand in the middle of the room, completely unsecured. With a baby, this was extremely dangerous, we constantly had to watch to make sure it wouldn’t fall on him. The room had a kitchen, oven, and washing machine, but no plates, cutlery, or detergent. ...

The room was clean and tidy. Breakfast was acceptable. Location is great. The spa was okay too, my only issue is in the hot tub the water could have been a bit warmer. Customer service , by mistake they wanted to charge me for a cake which I never ordered,the receptionist was helpful and he corrected the problem but frankly I say the other stuff member should pay a bit more attention.

A quiet, comfortable place ,10 minutes from the centre by walk. The food is amazing!

5 start from my kid, she loved it, and from me for pleasant stay. Great kids room and food was ok. You always find something u like. Wellness opening hours could be longer.

Overall it was an okay stay. Didn't get the room with the balcony, even though I specifically asked for it. Also didn't get to use the wellness area as it was completely full (mostly kids). Was hard to get a table for dinner/breakfast. The food was decent, expected a bit more to be honest. Not sure I would stay there again.

We had a great time. The staff is very nice, the room is nice and clean, the food is very delicious, varied and tasty. There is one negative, we had to wait for a rest bed in the wellness area because it was all taken. There should be more beds. The massage is also very good, you don't have to talk, that's important to me. The prices are not outrageous, not even in the bar. In the restaurant...

Very clean rooms, Helpful stuff, Food is great, Playroom for children and pools are very nice

It was complete wellness for the whole family, everyone found something they to enjoy in fantastic surroundings. The service and the friendliness of the staff are excellent, and the food is also great. I highly recommend it for families with children of all ages, but it's also a great place to relax without kids.

We had a fantastic pre-Christmas family stay at Wellness Hotel Katalin. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxing holiday. Our children enjoyed the pools, while we truly appreciated the wellness facilities, especially the sauna and jacuzzi. The food deserves special praise: the buffet offered an impressive variety of high-quality dishes and amazing desserts. The staff were kind...

We just spent a lovely weekend at Hotel Katalin, and enjoyed every single minute of it. The staff was always welcoming and kind to us, always ready to help out or answer any of our questions. We really enjoyed using the check-in machine in the F&B area, too. The staff there was super professional, always checking on us and making sure everything was delicious and alright, while being polite and respectful...

The atmosphere was perfect. The rooms were large, bright, and clean. The staff was very kind , as usual. Good value for money. Although we were with three children, the rooms are soundproof, so we did'nt disturb the other guests. :)

We had such a great time that we’re already talking about returning! Everything about the place made our stay so wonderful. The cleanliness is outstanding. You can tell they really care about keeping the hotel spotless. Our room, the hallways, and especially the wellness area were all in perfect condition. The wellness section itself is fantastic, many warm pools, there is even a separate area for...

We spent three nights with my wife there. Perfect location in an extremely nicely maintained garden with a perfect pool. The whole resort is designed with love for the details, using well-coordinated colors. A friendly personal and a good breakfast completes the picture.

I think we have found the ideal hotel by Lake Balaton. Great hotel, with great people. The manager is extremely kind, helpful, going above and beyond. The chef's cuisine is sumptuous, his dishes are very delicious, truly full of flavors. The room is clean, spacious, airy. The terrace overlooks a great garden. Peace and quiet. If you want great food, a quiet, conversational wine evening, this is your...

The location and the facility is very good.

Lovely accommodation on the whole Hotel is in excellent condition and the room was as comfortable as we have stayed in, so very good on that front. Excellent location for the beach at Csopak which was literally across the footpath, and the pool on site was an excellent option too. Negatives would be that there is no restaurant in the hotel, only a buffet breakfast but there are options close by. Code...

Good breakfast and very good location - we were looking for a place not far from the Jazz Festival and near Lake Balaton - so this was a great choice! A very beautiful and well-maintained beach adjacent to the hotel

Hotel is on very good position with very easy access to the beach. One issue I have is with quality of service in local restaurant. And second one is for old and not well maintained rooms. Broken glass in doors to balcony?! Old and not so tidy bathroo.

The beach is good and the room is fine.

Exellent room and service but coffie was really bad.

We stayed one night. Room was clean. Staff were friendly. Room was small but for only one night it was all we needed.

I’d like to compliment the young man who was at the reception that evening. He was very helpful, reliable, and pleasant — he really did his best.

Positive: - The food is great - The location is very good, around 5 minute walk to Lake Balaton - The staff is very kind and helpful and speaks English well Negative: - Even with full board, drinks are not included at lunch or dinner, not even water - The spa is not very well maintained, and the jacuzzi is fine only if you’re the only person in the whole spa - The water pressure in the bathroom...

Nice, comfortable rooms. Good service.

Nice, clean and spacious room. Very good food. I recommend.

Hungarian twist Friendly people, clean room, decent breakfast, problematic night light

Itt was an amazenig place and people.

Me and my fiancé had a great experience here, the rooms are super cosy and vibey. The facilities here are placed well as you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Balaton while relaxing. I can honestly say even after 2 nights here I feel refreshed and pampered. One of the staff members, Lia was so friendly and accommodating too which really enhanced how pleasant this destination is.

Room was nice. An arm chair for my husband would have been good since ge sleeps in an armchair. Lake view was very nice

The place is super, beautiful clean rooms wonderful lakefront with own access to boats and fantastic jacutti. Loved it, i can recommend it fully. Food was also nice and sow as the service. They were kind and attentive. I would be happy to viair again.

Great experience. Everyone have to visit them! :) Great breakfast, famyliar and friendly staff. If you want to feel yourself well, You have to come here.

Family of 2+1 (11 years old) and we had a small apartment: 1 room with kitchenette and a separate bedroom. The rooms are nothing to write home about, but it was clean. The air conditioner did not work in the bedroom and the first night it was really hard to sleep in that heat. We complained, but there was no action taken. Second night we had a storm and it cooled down the bedroom a bit. Breakfast was...

Nice place. Close to Balaton lake. Private parking available. Wonderful breakfast. Spacious room.

Lovely place, but air conditioning was limited to 23 degrees, so the room was warm

Don't judge a book by its cover This hotel may be old school with dated decoration but it is spotless. The rooms are clean, the beds are new and comfortable and the staff is helpful. The location is quiet, but close to the beach (5 min), and about a 15-minute walk from restaurants and small stores. We would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Great rooms, good breakfast, nice little park in the background. 5min walk to the lake.

This property was cute and very quiet. The staff was very attentive and very accommodating. The hotel was very clean.

It was an excellent experience. Everything was very nice and clean. They have a beautiful garden and location is very close to the lake. Breakfast was also very good and tasty. Nevertheless stuff is very friendly. If you want to spend a few days and to relax , then don´t miss this place! For sure that I will come back next year

Great food. Friendly staff. Decent spa.

I only led an educational session there. Cannot comment on the hotel.

Very well managed Balaton hotel. All kind of services. Kind staff. Perfectly clean.

It is a good hotel with quiet and air-conditioned rooms. The air-conditioning is a bit weird, though, as it is located in the bathroom. The food is very good and you can take as much as you want. The welness is very good also. The parking is too small for the amount of rooms they have. I don't understand their pricing policy, they told me they will send me discounts for the next year and it turned...

Lovely, wellness hotel. The staff is friendly, the food is well presented, and cooked to perfection. Hassle free service. The wellness facilities are satisfactory. The extra services are excellent. I had an hour of relaxation massage,pleasant atmosphere, and the lady was amazing. Super friendly, cheerful and attractive indeed. ;) I would recommend this place to anyone who is after a relaxing weekend...

I had an extremely pleasant stay at this hotel! The rooms are recently renovated. The hotel grounds are green, well-maintained, and create a cozy, peaceful atmosphere — perfect for relaxation. Breakfasts are very tasty and filling — there’s something for everyone. The staff is friendly and attentive. The only slight inconvenience might be carrying heavy luggage up to the second floor, as there is...

Decent but better hotels available. Food not that great at the hotel. Pool was fine, best part was the jacuzzi and sauna.

The staff were exceptional. Now Balaton lake is a very pretty area - the villages along the shore are beachside resorts. We went on a sporting weekend and we understand that this really was the last weekend of the tourist season before restaurants and hotels start closing for winter. We arrived about 1am in the morning as our flight was delayed. Parking on site was secure. The hotel staff had made...

When we came it was quiet because families already left. It is family friendly, so if you look for quite holiday ask the property for the right time.

The breakfast buffet was good. Close to the lake. Clean rooms, very nice owner. Parking on property and the gates are closed over night.

Andrew old-time charming holiday hotel. Good breakfast. Easy to muddy and reedy but of lake. Long walk to restaurants but pleasant under the moon (less so under heavy rain!)

It’s a really retro hotel, it can give you a true hungarian nostalgic feeling. Pro: very clean, next to the beach Contra: the food is bad, the staff is rude, kinda expensive It’s not worth it.

Nice panoramic view from upper floors. Good small rooms. Nice bathrooom. Nice indoor pool an sauna. Good restaurant. Right on the shore of lake Balaton.

I'we been visiting this hotel every summer for the third time now. It is really close to the beach, has an acceptable wellness area(good to have but not a wellness hotel. It is for winter, and bad weather). The bathrooms have been modernised. Two styles are available. The breakfast and dinner are acceptable. There are good restaurants in 5min distance with a car. The wifi is slow, as a sloth, ISDN...

Beachside hotel at the Balaton. Supercheap, retro with all the problems that come with it. If you spend most of your time on the beach anyway or come with kids it is great. If you want your room to be supercomfy with airconditioning and silence, forget it.

we tried the restaurant part only for breakfast and it was amazing.

nice stuff and good food. the location is natural und quite. i liked it.

Lovely hotel by lake Balaton It was wonderful, the hotel is located just minutes from the beach, breakfast was delicious with home backed goods. The hotel has a great wellness area with whirlpools, jacuzzi and saunas. Everything was clean and very good. The staff was professional and friendly at the same time. Thank you!

As a returning guest, I am still not disappointed. Friendly staff, relaxation without disturbance. Buffet restaurant with varied, delicious food. This hotel is dog-friendly, which is a plus. Many thanks, I would heartily recommend it to everyone.

Good but not good enough This hotel needs an urgent upgrade. The spa area is great as is. But the coffe machine would have flooded the restaurant if i would have not told thexstaff. Juice machine was not turned on. Okly water came out. The breakfasg was barwly ready at 8.30 when time was 8am. (Whicj i comsider late for a hotel). The rooms are smelly of humidity and else.

Medium sized hotel on the shore of Lake Balaton. Situated just opposite with the train station of Alsóörs, yet the arrival and departing trains are not disturbing. The hotel staff is generally friendly, but during my stay one of them was grumpy. Wellness with indoor pool and outdoor jacuzzi, different type of saunas, massage, games can all provide a calm and dedicated time and relaxation. The food...

The only hotel in Balatonalmadi that is right on the Balaton bike trail and has its own beach front. You can also rent SUP and the staff is super nice. The hotel belongs to one of the universities so staying here you also support young people.

We are returnees to this hotel for various reasons. It is nice and quiet even in high season and has a private Balaton beach. The kitchen staff is very accommodating to requests, and other staff is also very helpful. Bikes available to use, and in summer season you can rent SUP as well. They have a nice playground and a small outdoor kids pool.

This hotel is a complete throw back, stay here and go back in time 30 years. The food is hearty, the staff friendly (I got to learn some Hungarian from one of the wait staff). You won’t get good internet service but you will get a chance to really relax and take some lovely swims and walks.

Segitőkész személyzet, jó reggeli, illetve a portaszolgálat nagyon segítőkész volt, lerobbant az autóm és maximális segítséget kaptam az autójavító szolgálat megkeresésében és kihívásában. Köszönet érte.

We stayed for two weeks and held our wedding there! Friendly and accommodating staff who really looked after us. We enjoyed using the Volleyball court and table tennis. Excellent location with a private beach and free use of sun loungers. Comfortable rooms with balcony, fridge and hairdryers. Great value overall and would certainly recommend!

Everything was wonderful! The staff is great, always smiling. If you have any kind of problem or complaint, they strive to find a solution right away. Their private beach is nice as well, though open to the public, it is never crowded. Really great value for the money! My only complaint, is that the coffee at breakfast is really bad 😀

Visiting the hotel on my second time. And having a late check-in, but the owner was so nice to give me instructions to find my keys. General a nice stay and the breakfast was great!

No hot water (it is warm only), no soap in the bathroom

It was good stay the hotel near to the Balaton lake.

A good place for the price; it was nice to stroll along the embankment. It's a 20-minute walk to the train station with a suitcase—not far, in my opinion, especially since the route is flat. Delicious breakfasts and dinner, wonderful staff. The downsides are the very loud noise; you can hear everything going on in the hallway and the snoring of neighbors in other rooms. Also, as I read in other reviews...

It's close to the lake. However, if you don't have a car, it's hard to get there from the train station. Although there is a bus line, there are only around 3 or 4 buses in the afternoon. There is a pool and a hot tub on the ground floor. Its nice to unwind there. The breakfast is good too.

Great value for money and a good wellness area.

This is a very nice, big hotel. The rooms are big and have balconies. Breakfast is very good and plentiful. It has a large parking lot but the location is very poor. It's situated on the exit of the city and it is approximately 2.5-3 km away from the public Strand. The water is at 0.7 miles from the hotel but the beach that can be used and where all the restaurants and shops are situated is far away

I expected more from a 4-star hotel. Food was ok+, but I would expect more choice for a 4-star hotel. Our room door (around the handle and lock) looked like someone had broken into the room in the past. Maybe we were just unlucky because it really was the only such door on the entire floor, but no one at the reception told us about the condition of the door untill we saw it by ourselves. At the pool...

The hotel has a good location - 1.5km on foot to the cities center - , rooms were modern, clean and quiet. The beds were comfortable, and the room had a balcony to. Breakfast and dinner was okay but not fantastic. There was no minibar and no possibility of making coffee in the room. The reception staff was kind and professional. The hotel has a big free parking lot, it is near to the cities swimming...

I/we only stayed here for one night. The hotel is roomy, clean and minimalistic. It's design is actually quite cool in some respects. The room is spacious with plenty of room for two, with the added bonus of a balcony. There's plenty of parking around the side and it's in a reasonably good location. If everything is so good, then why the slightly average score.... Even though the hotel is pleasant...

Rooms are great, spacious and clean. Beds are a bit on the uncomfortable side but you still sleep ok on them. We only had breakfast and it was plentiful and everything was tasty. Only problem I had in this place was that most of the workers here do not speak any other language aside from Hungarian which is unfortunate cos I do not speak the language. Don't get me wrong, they are helpful and really...

Friendly staff and clean rooms. The only negative area is the food. We spent there 4 days but the breakfast was the same every morning. The dinner was decent. This is why I gave only 4 stars instead of 5.

Nice room Gate-closed parking. Entrance to Balaton beach included in the rate. Balcony with lake view. Ok breakfast.

Great food, kind service, excellent wellness capability.

The maintenance guy Stepsz was really top of his game, help me out with very odd requests Well done!!!

The hotel location is pretty good. Staff speaks German as well. The rooms are very clean but could use a 21st century update. Unfortunately the towel policy is a bit odd. We got one medium sized towel for the whole stay and a literal table cloth for the pool/sauna which was absolutely useless, after asking we did not receive another towel we could use for the pool/sauna area. If we knew about that...

Very nice people, clean room and great food.

The room is only 3 stars but the dinner is royal! The hospitality perfect and the park is nice. There is inside pool which is also good.

Very nice hotel. Modern and comfortable duplex studio. Well-located hotel. Comfortable and modern duplex studio. Pleasant terrace.

Nice with a few suggestions for improvements The actual place was nice. The check in process was challenging. We had to download an app and put in our passport information, etc. we didn’t have good internet service so it was very difficult. It would be nice if they provided more than one washcloth and if they provided shower soaps. The toilet was situated very strange. It was very quiet and clean...

Clean place, nice garden, walls quite thin but this seems to be a standard thing in this area of lake Balaton. The apartment has the strict necesities except a wine opener. The mattress would need an upgrade, the sleep hasn't been quite pleasant.

This is about vila Oliver 1. What I remember is a quiet starry night in a warmish end of April. Nightingales (probably from neighbor yards) were giving a concert full night. Inegalable. Pluses: cleanliness, terrace, comfortable bed. Minuses:. Breakfast - nothing hot, everything packed from supermarket, no coffee at all provided for the coffee maker in the room, check out hour

Just be aware! Got a nice greeting by the host but.. previously booked a 1 bed apartment through on booking.com. The website has stated a right amount for a maximum occupancy of four guests but we still have been charged for an extra €15 on top and said just because the apartment fits for 2 person and further additional occupancy pays £15 each. It hasn't been told previously we acted and prepared as...

For a short passing through stay ok. Very close to the lake . Rooms slowly looking tired. Shower room and bathroom on our arrival not very clean. Wifi did not work on any of our devices closer than 10m to accomodation. Shower room floor gets flooded every time you use the shower!. It is enclosed on three sides with one side open. The shower has one drain in the shower so nowhere for the water to go...

Beautiful and clean hotel with outdoor pool and free sauna. Lake is 5-7 min from here. Staff were very nice and polite. Highly recommend. Only downside was there was no mosquito net in our room during mid July.

Very pleasant hotel with professional staff and a family-friendly atmosphere. Excellent breakfast and overall great experience. Highly recommended!

I spent a night here, the location is beautiful. There is a pool outside, we were able to use it during night, there is also a sauna. The breakfast was good as well.

This was our second time here. I did not remember that we could here the noise of the trafic from the main street last time. But it was really loud this time. With earplugs it is okay to sleep. The pool was great. Little bit cold. Very nice staff. The breakfast and dinner was much better I expected. The sortiment is not huge but food is nice. The lake Balaton is really close by walk. Best experience...

Nice staff, nice location and nice accommodation 😀

Nice location, friendly staff, nice rooms.

Great place! Stayed for the festival in 2024, and they went above and beyond for us. Very accommodating staff, nice breakfasts, and quiet area near the train station. On checkout day, we slept through two alarms and had to leave after the checkout time. They didn't make a fuss about it (even though they could have and would have been right) and even agreed to look after our luggage for like eight hours...

Ignoring the bad shower design that made the whole bathroom floor wet, everything was fantastic. The pool and the sauna are awesome. Cheap massages are also recommended

The hotel's best years are behind it and you can still feel the previous era here. A general renovation is recommended. There is no air conditioning in the rooms. Food average and with little choice. Nice service, there is a swimming pool in the basement, a billard, darts, etc.

The staff is kind and professional, as well as the reception. The hotel and the rooms are decently equipped, they were very attentive to cleanliness. We also liked the huge pool. With all that said we overlooked the defects such as the lack of AC, thefrequent noises from the highway/comuting train and for the not so well performing wifi. Over all we recommend this place and we will definitely come...

It's a good place to stay in, the food was good, personal friendly and pretty much everything you can ask for. Only thing I disliked was collapsing WiFi.

Nice place, super nice and friendly staff, good food, the rooms are neat and clean but they would definitely need a solid face-lift

Situated along the shores of Lake Balaton, the hotel boasts a prime location. The room itself is generously sized, impeccably clean, and thoughtfully furnished with essential amenities. Adding to the charm are the two terraces – a petite one overlooking the parking area and a larger one with a view of the lake. The dining experience is exceptional, featuring a diverse and delicious array of dishes...

I stayed too little to realize what I didn't like, but I know what I liked here.😍 The hotel is located on the shore of Lake Balaton. The room is very spacious, clean and equipped with the necessary things. A pleasant surprise are the two terraces. ☺️ A small terrace overlooking the parking lot, and the other overlooking the lake, which is larger. Good and diversified food, it's impossible not to find...

I have never been in such a beautiful Hotel ****. It's located right next to the lake Balaton. Bedroom have a nice balcony with a fantastic view to. Dishes were excellent. They have a very high quality of services. If you want to visit the Hungarian see, called Lake Balaton, I would warmly recommend this hotel to you and to your family, to your friends. No location is also fantastic, if you want to...

We stayed at this hotel for a few days, and we had a good experience. The hotel was pretty good, but I don’t think it’s a luxury hotel. We stayed in the studio room, furniture was a bit old, but it was good. We had a little bit of view of lake Balaton. The staff was friendly and helped us with everything we needed. We only had the breakfast spread and was good for a quick bite. We liked the location...

Extra clean, beautiful view! Next year we will go again definitely... 1 min from the Lake Balaton. Very good who travelling with kids the water is small and very warm. Evening beautiful view and nice walk you can make at the shor.

The hotel is quite big, the rooms are cozy and big. The breakfasts and dinners are nice and have variety. They have a gameroom with foosball, biliard and darts which we enjoyed pretty much (although the darts is overpriced). The spa part of the hotel was disappoing; sauna reached the 50°C in half an hour, the jacuzzi was not operating and the pools are "meh". Book this one if you enjoy big and light...
