3 Beautiful Hotels in Budapest

Budapest, the charming Hungarian capital straddling the Danube, is a gem of a city; in fact, it’s really two cities, Buda and Pest. Walk from one city to the other via the Széchenyi Chain Bridge (a must), wander around the cobblestoned streets of Castle Hill, where you’ll find the historic Buda Castle complex, listen to the grand organ at St. Stephen's Basilica, savor goulash and chicken paprikash in a cozy bistro (or at a Michelin-Starred restaurant)...I could go on.

You won’t be at a loss for things to do in Budapest. There are numerous neighborhoods to explore, from the bustling Terézváros to the under-the-radar Józsefváros. As for where to stay, let me help narrow down your options. Read on for a few of the best hotels in Budapest.

Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace Budapest

Set in an early-20th-century palace, the art-nouveau Four Seasons Budapest is one of the city’s premier high-end stays. It’s located in District V, or Belváros-Lipótváros, a hub for the capital’s commercial and political goings-on. The hotel is seriously dedicated to immersing you in the local vibrancy. They’ll arrange a private guide to take you around the local art galleries, or snag you a fast pass to the city’s famed thermal baths. Indeed, they’ll take you off the beaten path. And their culinary program is unmatched: enjoy afternoon tea accompanied by live music, head to the sophisticated KOLLÁZS restaurant for a dinner highlighting French-Hungarian cuisine or opt for MÚZSA, where craft cocktails and Asian-inspired bites are served in a lively, glamorous setting.
