Best places to stay in Budapest

Where to stay in Budapest for thermal baths and nightlife

Budapest is where old-world elegance meets a wild nightlife under crumbling facades. By day, you’re soaking in art nouveau thermal spas. By night, you’re sipping fröccs in a graffiti-covered ruin pub.

Comfort, charm, and maybe even a rooftop view of the Danube — your hotel stay should feel like it belongs. We cut through the noise and filtered out the fluff.

These are the top 5 hotels travelers genuinely rave about.
