a place to sleep
After a huge day exploring Budapest, you need a comfortable and classy place to throw down your bags and prepare yourself for the next days adventure. The city's hotel culture is alive and well, and there are plenty of unique and affordable homes-away-from-home on offer.
Lanchid19 is a stunning example of 19th century architecture, and its also a damn good place to fluff up your pillow and settle in for the night. The first thing that strikes you is the unique accordion-style facade on the building that moves and changes colour, intriguing passers-by. Inside, though, is where you start to feel at home with plush decor and staff that are always on call for a cheeky club sandwich at any ungodly hour.
On the budget end of the sleep-time spectrum, Hotel Pest is a quiet and comfortable downtown hotel that's big on comfort and service. The building has been restored to its 18th century glory, giving the place an elegant charm. Plenty of the main sights are within easy walking distance, and you don't have to venture far for a huge selection of restaurants.
If you're after a boutique urban hideaway, check yourself into Hotel Zara, right in the heart of the city. There are over seventy unique rooms, positioned directly across from the Danube and right in the middle of all the shopping you can handle.
