About the location:
An art nouveau masterpiece on the Danube. Located in the heart of Budapest, our art nouveau palace Hotel embodies the spirit of Budapest’s Golden Era glam. From the moment you enter, savour the iconic wrought-iron peacock gates, pass through the Lobby adorned with over two million mosaic tiles illuminated with its striking chandelier, and let inspiration wash over you. Outside, views of the Danube and the picturesque Buda skyline stand before you. Spend the day exploring the sights, recharge in our Spa that harnesses the city’s heritage in wellness, then enjoy an innovative cocktail in our newly opened lobby bar MÚZSA.
