How much should a taxi between Budapest airport and Szechenyi Baths cost?
A guy from my hostel is wondering how much to expect to pay for a taxi to the Szechenyi Baths and back to the airport since he has a six hour layover there.
As bonus questions can he pay in Euros or will only Forint be accepted, and is there any way to get a return fare?
He expects that public transport or airport shuttle will eat into his time too much so it has to be a taxi.

Tripadvisor has an extensive description on how to get from the airport to anywhere in Budapest. Your friend might be specifically interested in option 4:
Taxi Option 4: Arrange with a Specific Airport Transfer Service to meet you inside, as you exit the secure area, with a sign with your name on it
They list three companies. I have tried two of those companies and I don't regret it. The driver was on time. From the airport to the city we paid 22 euro and on our return trip we paid 18 euro. Both times we paid with credit cards on the onboard terminal.
