Széchenyi Thermal Spa may be the most famous of its kind in Budapest, the location is in the City Park, just a few minutes from Heroes Square. Not the most budget friendly solution, especially if you go for massages or other treatments, but surely the most characteristic experience. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sz%C3%A9chenyi-thermal-bath/107128275991750?fref=ts
