Panoramic hot tub atop Rudas Bath
If you and your date haven’t seen each other in swimwear (or underwear) yet, this activity might be better for after you’ve already been going out for a while... but once you’re familiar with each other’s skin, there’s no Budapest rendezvous destination that can compare with this one. On the rooftop of Rudas Bath, located at the base of Gellért Hill, we can enjoy a beautiful view of Budapest (or at least the part between the Liberty Bridge and Elizabeth Bridge) while soaking in hot thermal water. After dark, we recommend ordering two glasses of champagne and enjoying the high life to the fullest while admiring the passing boats and illuminated bridges.

Picnic on the closed Liberty Bridge
With its statuesque construction style and panoramic views, Liberty Bridge is always a romantic meeting place in the summer, but especially this year, when it is temporarily closed to traffic because of construction at one bridgehead – but meanwhile, the span remains open to the car-free citizens of Budapest, who quickly took over the structure. The bridge now acts as a one-of-a-kind venue for picnics, free of traffic, smoke, and noise. So spread a blanket, open the wine, and enjoy the panoramic sunset here while you can!

BeerSpa at Széchenyi Bath
No, Budapest’s new BeerSpa isn’t the masculine version of Cleopatra’s milk bath – we don’t get to bathe in a tub full of actual beer. Instead, the wooden tubs are filled with a mix of 36°C thermal water, which is rich in minerals and infused with the natural extracts used to brew beer (malts, hops, brewer’s yeast, and barley). The effects of these ingredients are as beneficial for the skin as they are for the age-old beverage made from them, and as a bonus, we can pour and enjoy an unlimited amount of Czech beer on tap within reach from the tub, making this a particularly intoxicating date idea.
