Normafa Hotel

Amazing for your well-being. Such a tranquil, stressfree environment, immaculate rooms and the most amazing Jacuzzi.

Epic fantastic beautiful. Loved every minute

I travelled on my own to do the 4 day yoga retreat at Normafa, and I cannot fault the experience. The yoga programme was of a really high quality. I turned up knowing pretty much nothing about 'kundalini' yoga, and also not having had any other regular yoga practice before going - so I can vouch for the fact that this programme is suitable for complete beginners. Whilst physically demanding, you can choose how much to push yourself using the guidance given. The yoga dome was a wonderful location for the yoga classes, and all equipment (mats, blankets, cushions etc) are provided. The hotel is really well thought-through in its design, and the result is a really beautiful space. The spa and yoga areas in particular seem very new and modern - and done to a very high standard. I'm a big fan of saunas, and this one is exceptional - I'd even go so far as to say they have the best sauna I've experienced - and the sauna 'experience' events on Friday and Saturday evenings are really worthwhile paying extra to attend. The cold plunge pool next to the sauna was really properly cold too! Although there is no alcohol and the food is all vegetarian, it's really varied, tasty and enjoyable - and supports a deeper positive experience through the yoga retreat programme. The location is great - right next door to Normafa forest national park, which is a safe space to do some scenic walks and enjoy the amazing views from the hills over the city of Budapest. The whole experience was really life-changing for me and has set me on a new course in my own health and wellbeing - I cannot recommend it highly enough.

The normafa hotel retreat centre is amazing from the delicious food, buffet style, breakfast, lunch and dinner cleanliness, facilities such as sauna, pool, and jacuzzi, the yoga and nearby views Just outstanding, I didn't want to leave I was there for a 5 day kundalini yoga retreat, with fantastic teachers

Stayed two nights early August during ‘soft opening’ of the rebuilt Hotel Normafa in Buda Hills, 20 minutes by bus from downtown (also parking available) located near Children's Railway, lookouts and many 'gentle' walking trails. More an adult hotel with full spa, sauna, jacuzzi and pool all year round, with friendly service. Stayed in Standard Queen Room, first floor, facing garden and pool (on front or entrance side rooms have balconies), quiet due to carpeted floor (as are the hallways), comfortable bed, mini fridge, flat screen tv (inc. YouTube, mirroring and browser), aircon fine, can open windows, curtains can black out light, kettle, water etc. and robe plus slippers for spa pool area (think room service is coming soon). Breakfast was very good, many light and healthy options from fresh orange juice, beetroot & green detox juices, standard hot fair inc. omelettes, mushrooms, bacon etc.; Bircher muesli, fruits, a variety of breads, cold cuts and of course coffee and teas. Same dining area (roof can open too), terrace and lounge area can also be used during the day, few if any local choices outside, while the restaurant & bar runs from 12.00-21.00 with e.g. wine by the glass from EUR2.50 and a menu focusing on light and healthy Hungarian, European and some Asian cuisine. Soups, starters, main courses and desserts with main courses EUR 15-30 includes vegetarian choices; one had roast corn chicken dish with fruit pudding and following evening green salad and breaded cricket with a generous portion of sweet potato chips or wedges, with a couple of glasses of local wine. When fully open, appears there will be a closed and open grill area out the back, and an enclosed entertainment dome out the front, for all year round.
