Town of Siklós begins work on Ft 2.4 billion water park

By

The city of Siklos (SW Hungary) laid the cornerstone of a HUF 2.4bn thermal bath and water park on Sunday.

The local council will pay for the thermal bath and water park with a bond issue. Aquaplus, which won a tender to build the facility, will also operate it for 25 years, paying the local government HUF 800m during the period, said mayor Janos Marenics.

The bath and water park, which will have capacity for 850 guests in the winter and 2,000 in the summer, is expected to make Siklos more than just a “day trip”, he added.

Aquaplus will finance itself a HUF 1.1bn, 44-room hotel to be built in an old mill near the bath.
