We spent 2 nights with 5 grandchildren. They enjoyed the food, especially the ice cream part:))), the playground inside and outside. The biggest attractions for the kids were the slides, however the whole set up is really a dreamland for little ones from 1-6 year old. Everything is well designed for a perfect vacation for the whole family. The food is excellent, we appreciated that the dinner was available until 9:30. It was already our second visit, we'll go again. Thank you for the staff for their friendly relationship to the kids, it is excepcionel.

I had a truly wonderful experience staying at this hotel. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay.

FAQs about hotels in Lake Balaton

Blue Waters, Wine and Thermal Springs

Known to many as Hungarian Sea, Lake Balaton is the Central Europe’s largest body of fresh water and one of its most popular attractions. Located in the Transdanubia region of Hungary, the Balaton is great for water sports, wine-tasting trips or simply relaxing in the sun.

One of the major resorts is Siofok, great for a family holiday due to significantly shallower waters here and plenty of children activities and facilities. Known as the capital of Balaton, it is full of sandy beaches, stalls with local food and crafts, as well as nightclubs.

Other popular destinations on the south shore of the lake are Zamardi, Balatonfoldvar, Balatonfenyves and Fonyod, the latter offering great views of the lake and the volcanic-topped hills surrounding it.

The Balaton’s north shoreline features pretty towns, popular with an elderly crowd and lovers of deeper waters. Keszthely is one of them, with a beautiful 18th-century Festetics Palace and within close proximity to the spa town of Heviz, where people come to relax in thermal springs and beautiful gardens.

Further to the east, there is the unique Tihany Peninsula, cutting the Balaton almost in half, and a popular spot for diving. Visit Booking.com to find the best offers for hotels there and other areas around Lake Balaton.

We didn't get to swim in the spa and lake, nor use the spa therapy. We believe it is exceptional, and we will come back next time for a longer stay. A walk around the lake is an exceptional experience, beautiful walking paths.

It's a nice place where you can spend a great holiday. You have a lot of bike lanes to ride on. The lake is usually nice but sometimes it can be really muddy. A lot of restaurants so you surely can find something to eat. Overall a great place to be during summer and autumn.

Veszprem is a small city, with some very impressive architecture, and interesting history. Also a nice place to just explore . The area along the riverside which passes the bottom entrance to the zoo then reaches a really nice park is a favoured walk for us . The centre has a good selection of restaurants catering to a variety of tastes and budgets . One thing to be aware of is that lunch is the Hungarian main meal of the day , therefore we have a couple of times tried to get a meal a bit later on the evening , depending on the time of year or day of the week that has sometimes been hard to find . Getting around , we can walk anywhere it’s a compact city . We generally get a lift from family to and from Station, after that we walk , if your fairly fit and can walk for about an hour I think you won’t need public transport but it is available if required . We are 3 adults so can’t say what children would like other the zoo and ice cream shops which are very good .

Balatonfured is a great spot for families with children.

Balatonfured is a great spot for families with children. There are many water activities / boat trips to nearby resorts etc.... As a couple, we were interested in exploring the wines of the region and were fortunate to arrive during a time when all the major wine producers of the surrounding area had stalls on the promenade of Balatonfured along the lake as well as local food. It is easy to get to Balatonfured from Budapest by train and once, there, to get around on foot. Many people cycle though.
