According to the November data of the National Tourist Information Center (NTAK), this year the number of guest nights spent in spa towns exceeded the previous year by almost 10 percent. The holiday period is expected to further increase the traffic of spa towns – the Hungarian Tourism Agency (MTÜ) drew attention in its statement on Thursday.

The biggest increase was measured in Hajdúszoboszló (22 percent) and Egerszalók (19 percent) in November. The share of the combined accommodation turnover of seven spa resorts reached 56 percent of the performance of rural Hungary.

In November, Hévíz turned out to be the most popular rural spa town, where the majority of foreign guest nights were spent by people from Austria. Czechs also preferred Sárvár and Bük in November, Romanians mostly bathed in Hajdúszoboszló and Gyula. In addition to German and Austrian guests, Hévíz also welcomed many Czech guests. Among the spa towns, domestic guests spent the most nights in Hajdúszoboszló.
