The History of
the Royal Spa
The spa
was planned and built by famous Hungarian
architect Vilmos Freund in 1886-88. At
that time it contained steam baths, wave
and shower baths, electric baths,
pneumatic chamber and a medical room with
cold water. Contemporary journalists were
fascinated by the spa's appearance. In
1903 direct access was created for hotel
guests. After the First World War, Freund
was declared bankrupt and his heirs sold
the spa in 1923 to the Royal
Nagyszálló Rt. The spa
operated until 1944 and has been closed
ever since. The abandoned and obsolete spa
was rediscovered in 1983 and was earmarked
for conversion into a car parking
facility. Thankfully, János
Dianóczki, who was in charge of
planning the proposed multi-story car
park, turned down the proposal with the
full backing of the media and the public.
The Malta based International Hotel
Investments, owners of the Corinthia Grand
Hotel Royal acquired the property and
immediately set about drawing up plans for
its rehabilitation.
