Waterfront Hotel & Restaurant Investment Opportunity – Lake Szelidi, Hungary
Located on the shores of Hungary’s fifth-largest natural lake, Lake Szelidi, the Tó Szálló Hotel and Tó Restaurant enjoy a prime waterfront position directly at the main entrance of the public beach.
The property boasts a strong historical background. Originally built in the late 1950s as a hotel and restaurant, its opening was featured in early Hungarian newsreels. Since then, the complex has undergone several renovations, preserving its character while adapting to modern hospitality standards.
The hotel currently offers 18 guest rooms with a reception area. Each room is equipped with a private shower and washroom, designed to meet contemporary requirements. The building is partially air-conditioned, with additional air-conditioning units installed in the corridors.
The inner courtyard provides further expansion potential, with space available for four mobile homes, increasing accommodation capacity by up to 16 additional guests.
The restaurant section includes a fully equipped professional kitchen, holding all required official permits and certifications. This is complemented by an event hall and two exceptionally large terraces. One of these terraces is truly unique:
a 600 m² lakeside terrace extending over the water, offering an uninterrupted panoramic view of the lake.
The garden area features a separate outdoor terrace with cauldron cooking and barbecue facilities, reserved exclusively for hotel guests.
A particularly valuable asset of the property is the thermal water spring located within the courtyard, presenting significant untapped development potential for wellness or spa-related expansion.
From an investment perspective, the location offers outstanding advantages. The complex is situated approximately 20–25 km from the Paks nuclear development project and the Paks–Danube bridge, making it highly suitable for long-term accommodation of domestic and international workers. The current operator has previously held extended accommodation contracts with companies involved in preparatory works in the region.
The hotel and restaurant benefit from a well-established loyal clientele and have long served as a venue for corporate events, family gatherings, and large private functions.
This hospitality complex offers multiple utilization and development opportunities for a knowledgeable investor, ranging from tourism and events to workforce accommodation and wellness development.
The property operates with its own website and active Facebook presence, providing extensive information about both the complex and the surrounding area.
Total plot size: 3,173 m²
Usable built-up area: 1,255 m²
Additionally, there has been renewed demand to relaunch the former nightclub that operated on the premises in the 2000s. The venue has retained its original name, Club Fregatt, and its revival has contributed to the renaissance of the entire complex, further enhancing its commercial appeal.
