MenDan Magic Spa & Wellness Hotel in Zalakaros

Nice, quaint, almost boutique spa hotel (at least compared to the standard enormous hotel chains). Food is of high quality, I honestly can't say anything was bad - everyone should be able to find something they enjoy during breakfast and dinner service. Spa and skypool are nice, there's no reason to go to the Zalakaros aquapark/spa to be honest. The location is nice, right beside a new pond and (the main) park in Zalakaros, perfect for going for walks. I guess if I had to critique something it would be the bedsheets (pillow and blanket specifically) are starting to show their age. They've yellowed over the years and the pillows just feel cheap - like those ultra cheap pillows with the foam chunk filling. The hotel is in need of a complete pillow, blanket and bed linens refresh. The bath robes we were given were children's size, like literally children's size, my wife's robe was too small for her and she's only 150cm tall. I guess I could have asked for new robes at the reception desk, it's more the principle than anything, why would the cleaning staff put 2 tiny robes in a room, in a hotel where 90% of guests are couples? The boxspring under my mattress had a nasty squeek from a worn out spring, which woke my wife every time I got into/out of bed during the night. Oh and the jacuzzi bubble function in our suite kept either turning on randomly (with no water in the tub, the tub turned off) , or making loud noises all throughout the night (hard to describe the sound, like the pump kept turning on for a split second, over and over). It actually kept me awake on our second night.

Excellent location and very well designed public spaces. The SkyPool is a very popular part of it.
Excellent for family holiday. Recommend the local cycling paths and kenue-ing on the “Kis-Balaton”.

Lovely family stay, we’ve loved the infinity pool, their sauna program, and the food was amazing!

Excellent spa, with many attractions.

Friendly staff, delicious meals, comfy room, nice roof pool! Recommended!

So relaxing! The hotel itself describes as 4star - agree. The pool section way more higher above the average, opportunity to get a really good thai massage is fantastic! I tried and worth it! The food again on higher level than average, my fav dishes the soups but everything else is so good - if you see somewhere paprika be aware of - very spicy: ) ive been first time here, surprised of the skypool and the quality of food. Try the cocktails:) Very good value for your $! Perfect for families, sure im be back.

Excellent hotel, friendly staff, cozy rooms, spa, I recommend it to everyone 😉

It was great to spend again a week in our favorite hotel. Last time we spent a week here almost 6 years ago. Since than a lot of improvements happened: probably the most popular is the glass pool on the roof :) The food is great, I recommend booking a half board, the food is delicious. The service personal and management are extremely helpful in any part of the hotel. You should try the wellness and Beauty Saloon and talk to Mr. Song Danqquan about the acupuncture without needle :)
