The term ‘Szechenyi Bath cabin’ is used for changing rooms and storage rooms at Szechenyi Baths, in other words the cabins at Szechenyi Baths are private changing cabins, where you can, in your own privacy get changed and store your belongings.
Another option is to use the common changing areas and lockers for your items to be locked up.
Szechenyi Bath Ticket – Cabin Use
The tickets to the bath can be purchased with ‘cabin use’, or with lockers. The cabin is an extra service on behalf of Szechenyi Baths (plus they take up a lot of room), so the tickets with cabins are approx. (depending on the actual currency rates) 3 Euro more expensive than the standard bath tickets, which include a locker by default. It is up to you if you want to have a more upgraded service at Szechenyi Bath or you are fine with the cheaper bath tickets, which do not include the use of a cabin.
You can also buy your ticket to the Szechenyi Baths online and save some time (not having to stand in the queue, which in summer time or during major holidays, can mean 25-35 min waiting before you get to the cashier). Please note that the online ticket may cost a bit more, depending on packages, handling fees, inclusions, etc. than purchasing the tickets in person at the bath (subject to availability at all times). For buying your entry on the spot, kindly make sure to have Forints in your wallet or an acceptable card, e.g. Visa or Mastercard.
The cabins at Szechenyi Bath can comfortably take up 1 person, and a bit more tightly even a couple to get changed. However, if you wish to use the cabin as a couple or as a family, we suggest getting changed by taking turns.
You can see the photo of a bath cabin at Szechenyi Baths – closed doors, and what is behind the door. As you can see the cabin is not a spacious room, as it has been designed for getting changed for the pools, not for staying in. That said, as you can see, the cabin is large enough to accommodate a normal suitcase, so some guests who directly arrive from Budapest Airport to the Baths, or the other way around, take a taxi / shuttle from the thermal baths to Ferihegy Airport, will opt for storing their suitcase in the cabin, which is completely acceptable (for valuables you can pay for a small safety deposit box to have a peace of mind)
This is what a Szechenyi cabin looks like from the inside (clean, purposeful, nothing fancy, perfect for having your privacy while getting changed in the baths):

Hi !
We plan to visit the baths directly from the train station in the morning and then checkin into our hotel later in the day. In the cabins can we keep a regular size suitcase ?
Regards
Srv
Dear Saura,
yes, you can keep your suitcases in the cabin.
The cabin is like a tiny room, or cubicle, which can store a standard check-in suitcase easily.
The cabin size is approx. that of a dressing room in a clothes shop, so you can leave there the 20 kg suitcase as well ( if it is a regular size) along with your jackets etc.
The door of the cabin has a unique chip code lock, which opens and closes with a special waterproof bracelet: in fact, with the chip incorporated in the wristband bath entry provided at the bath. Please make sure that your door is locked with the silicon wristband before leaving the cabin. As you are wearing the band all the times, it is quite secure if you make sure that the door is not left open.
The size of the locker is 120x30x65 cm (1200 x 300 x 650 mm)., so it would be too small for your bags.
The lockers are also opened and closed by your wristband.
Hope we can welcome you at Szechenyi Spa Baths!
Hello
We are a group of 10 people and i was wondering are there any group tickets/ group tickets?
thanks
Dear Gary,
we will soon contact you via email about our group discounts and the minimum number of guests to qualify for a group discount at the thermal baths.
Can you visit here during the evening in August please?
Hello Cerrie,
yes, of course, Szechenyi Baths Budapest is visited throughout the whole year.
Looking to come around the 10th of December, are all of the pools etc still in full use or do some shut down? Also is there a time you need to arrive or once you have your tickets can you arrive when you want to.
Thanks
Hi there,
I planned to go there in mid October, may I know the outdoor pool’s temperature ?
Best regards,
Charles
The location of the cabin can be jointly accessed by a couple or is the cabin placed inside a men/females only change room ?
Dear Sunny,
Thank you for your question.
The cabin comfortably accommodates one person, so it could be a bit tight if you go there with your partner, but you can take turns when getting ready for the bath. As cabins take up more space and ensure your privacy, bath entries with cabin use are more expensive than regular lockers. If case you purchase cheaper bath entries with lockers, you will have to get changed in the ladies-only / men-only public changing rooms, and then store your bags in the lockers. If you wish to have your own privacy, cabins are a better solution for you.
We wish you a wonderful bath experience in Budaepst!
