Tucked away in a leafy hospital courtyard, Lukacs offers not only swimming and bathing facilities, but also boasts of special healing powers, thanks to its mineral-rich waters. However, only a few command such fierce loyalty from locals as Lukacs, an intimate bath complex wedged between the Buda hills and the Danube river.
