It&rsquo;s one of only two hotels in the city where we could confirm thermal water. For <strong>luxury</strong>, pick the <strong>Four Seasons Gresham Palace</strong> (top-floor infinity pool) or the <strong>Corinthia</strong> (a restored historic pool). For <strong>families</strong>, <strong>Aquaworld Resort</strong>. <strong>Hotel Gellért is closed</strong>, and the Ritz-Carlton is now <strong>Al Habtoor Palace</strong>.</div> </div> </div> <p>Budapest sits on thermal springs, and plenty of its hotels call themselves spa hotels. Very few pipe that water into their own pools. Most Budapest spa hotels have a good heated pool, saunas and a treatment menu, which is lovely but not the same thing. This guide separates the two, using each hotel&rsquo;s own website, and adds the details other lists leave out: day-pass prices, age rules and which famous names have closed.</p>
