Find accommodation
Alsóörs is a good choice for guests who want to combine beach time, a harbour and vineyards on the north shore. The town lies between Balatonalmádi and Csopak and is more compact than Balatonfüred.
Key facts
The beach and harbour are by the lake, while the vineyards and older parts of town lie higher up. The cycle path connects Alsóörs with neighboring places. Where you stay determines how long the walk to the water will be. Balatonfüred and Tihany are suitable excursion destinations. Up-to-date information on offers and events is published by the Municipality of Alsóörs.

Beach and harbour in everyday use
Alsóörs suits travellers who value a manageable base with access to the water more than a busy evening scene. When choosing a bathing area, entry, shade and distance from your accommodation matter; Beaches on Lake Balaton can help with that decision. If you only plan a short evening walk, it is best to choose accommodation close to the shore.
Vineyards and north shore excursions
To the west lies Balatonalmádi, and to the east Csopak, with wine and a beach. Balatonfüred adds a promenade and harbour to the stay, while Tihany offers the abbey and peninsula. For choosing between the shores, North shore or south shore provides practical points of comparison.
Choose accommodation by distance and travel style
Accommodation above the shore can be quiet, but in summer heat it also means a longer walk back. Location and travel style are therefore key when choosing where to stay. Families benefit from short distances and shade, while cycle travellers benefit from secure bike storage and access to the cycle path.
