 Hundreds of shops |
Nagytetenyi ut, 37-45 District XXII Budapest 1222 Hungary +36 1 424 3201 http://www.campona.hu/ |
This large mall (40,000 meters of retail space) features a tropicarium (plants and aquarium), a Ster Century cinema complex, a grocery store and La Halle as well as 150 other smaller shops. There are also restaurants and a small food court. Parking spaces (1800) are available outside. The only downside to Campona is that it is located at quite a distance from the city centre. The tropicarium seems to be a hit with all who have visited. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Communist-era shopping center |
Blaha Lujza tér 1-2 District VIII Budapest 1085 Hungary +36 1 338 4160 |
For a taste of consumerism in days gone by, take a trip to the Corvin department store. It is the original Hungarian concept of a department store, full of seventies-style furniture. But look closely and there are more than a few everyday finds here. There is a large houseware store, a shop selling lightbulbs in all different shapes and sizes, plenty of underwear, and a decent bedding department. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Shopping centre |
Vaci utca, 178 Budapest 1047 Hungary +36 (0)1 465 1666 http://www.dunaplaza.net/ |
This is one of the first of many shopping centres established in Budapest. It contains a bowling alley—Vilati Bowling Centrum, Virgin Megastore, Marks and Spencer, a cinema multiplex, food court, etc. It is slightly more accessible than other shopping centres. Probably because in proportion to other centers, there are more small booths and shops selling affordable goods, meaning lots of Hungarians actually shop here. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Shopping mall with multiplex |
H-1032 Budapest Becsi ut, 154 Budapest 1035 Hungary +36 (0)1 437 4660 http://www.eurocenter-obuda.hu/ |
This mall is on the same street as another Obuda mall (Uj Udvar), which opened in 1998, showing just how intense the competition in Budapest has become. Eurocenter competes with its predecessor with the aid of a seven screen Hollywood multiplex, an Interspar and some forty five other shops. Parking is free. The mall is air-conditioned which makes it a pleasantly cool haven from the summer heat. Review © 2007, Wcities |

British department store |
Vaci utca 178 Budapest 1052 Hungary +36 1 239 3616 http://www.marksandspencer.com/ |
This shop is relatively expensive, considering its function as a standard, basic department store in Britain. The primary draw is the availability of no-nonsense, basic trousers, skirts and sweaters, in both large and petite sizes. Women who must have their multi-pack underwear can stock up at the lingerie outlet opposite the main store. There is a good selection of bras, garters, camisoles and other foundation garments in larger sizes. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Rose Hill shopping |
Gabor Aron utca 74 Budapest 1026 Hungary +36 1 391 5998 / +36 18020 1180 http://www.rozsakert.hu/ |
This new mall sits near the top of the Rose Hill area. It has one of the more interesting food courts of any of the malls (mostly small, non-chain ethnic food outlets). There are 80 shops to choose from and a large Kaiser's grocery store. There are lots of parking spaces and they have a huge outdoor play area for kids. In winter, there is even a skating rink out the back. There is often a clown wandering around the mall. Review © 2007, Wcities |
