Brand new art hotel |
Bem Rakpart, 16-19 Budapest 1011 Hungary +36 1 487 9487 http://www.artotel.hu |
'Art hotels' are all the rage in Europe, each dedicated to the art and design of a single artist, and in the case of Budapest it's the work of American artist Donald Sultan. The hotel's location is excellent: in the city's heart, on the Buda side of the river. Everything from the carpets to the wall designs, actual paintings and more are by Mr. Sultan. The result is an interesting and comfortable marriage of hotel and museum, but a museum where even the walls and floors are artistic creations. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Classy & Cozy Hotel |
Apaczai Csere Janos utca, 4 (District V) Budapest 1052 Hungary +36 1 266 7000 http://www.dpbolvw.net/click-2... |
Taken over by the Marriott chain in 1992 and renovated room by room, this hotel has been completely revamped with the exception of the monolithic, Stalinist architecture of the exterior. Most of the rooms have a small balcony overlooking the river and are comfortably and well furnished. The Sunday all-you-can-eat brunch is very popular with ex-pats. The hotel also has a large and well-situated fitness center with windows overlooking the Danube. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Amazing views over the city |
Hess Andras ter, 1-3 Budapest 1014 Hungary +36 1 889 6600 http://www.budapest.hilton.com/ |
Built in 1976 around the ruins of a thirteenth-century Dominican monastery (the cloisters of which you can still walk around), this hotel offers amazing views over the Danube to Pest (for an extra HUF9,309). However, it should be noted that if your business is in Pest, the journey can be tedious during the rush-hour. The hotel's successful integration into the old ruins won it an architectural award, although today it may be considered a slightly intrusive addition to the Castle District skyline.

In the heart of wine country |
Nagytétényi út 372 Budapest 1225 Hungary +36 1 207 8100 / +36 1 207 6201 http://www.hotelaquarius.hu/ |
Hotel Aqaurius is situated in Nagyteteny, which is the main wine producing area of Hungary. The hotel has an interesting mix of old world charm with new world facilities. Rooms are exclusive as far their interiors are concrened and are specially designed with the handicapped and people suffering from allergies in mind. Enjoy the calm and silence of this place and give your tired nerves a much needed break at the spa with a rejuvenating massage. If business is on your mind, then there are special conference rooms where you can hold training, press coferences and weddings. All in an environment of peace. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Beautiful complex in Buda hills |
Fodor utca 143 (District XII) Budapest 1124 Hungary +36 1 395 1872 http://www.hotel-molnar.hu |
These two beautiful houses are located in the green and leafy Buda hills, and command spectacular views of the city. They have a large garden in the back, a playground across the road, and both a sauna and small gym. It's definitely worth asking for one of the rooms with a big balcony (at no extra charge); the biggest one is actually bigger than the room itself! Deck chairs and cushions are provided so you can enjoy sunning yourself on your own terrace. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Prestigious City-Centre Hotel |
Erzsébet tér 7-8 Budapest 1051 Hungary +36 1 429 3777 http://www.kempinski-budapest.... |
One of the great deluxe hotels in the city, Kempinski often hosts heads of state and international celebrities. Though it does not offer views of the river, it is still a great place to stay. The rooms have all been beautifully furnished, but those watching the budget may not sleep well here as rates are steep. The hotel does offer plenty of places to eat, from Kempi Brauhaus to the Italian Ristorante Giardino. In the Lobby Lounge high tea is served every afternoon. Keep an eye out for Formula One drivers and crews during the Hungaoring race. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Beautiful setting |
Szentharomsag ter, 6 (District I) Budapest 1014 Hungary +36 1 355 0122 |
The Kulturinnov hotel is a gem, which goes pretty much unnoticed by passersby, namely because it's located inside the Hungarian Culture Foundation. The hotel is small, with only sixteen rooms, and is often fully booked well ahead of time by those "in the know". The building in which it's housed is truly beautiful and well worth a look, even if you are not staying at the hotel. The combination of a Castle Hill location and an incredible building is a winning one. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Equipped with a bowling alley |
Alkotas utca, 63-67 (District XII) Budapest 1123 Hungary +36 1 209 1990 http://www.novotel-bud-congres... |
This is the perfect spot for those conventioneers who are attending something at the city's International Conference Centre, which is just next door; they host hundreds of conferences each year. It's situated at a main highway junction on the Buda side on the road leading out to Vienna, making for a convenient commute to all points along the way, as well as for day trips outside the city. Bowling enthusiasts, you're at home, for there's an alley in the hotel. A full selection of business services are available. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Located in the city center |
Vaci utca, 20 (District V) Budapest 1052 Hungary +36 1 485 3100 http://www.hoteltaverna.hu |
This is arguably the most conveniently located hotel in the city, that is, for those who like to shop and be in the thick of things. Its attractive price helps as well! Located on Vaci utca, the main downtown pedestrian shopping street, Taverna Hotel is a hop and a skip from the action. It houses a delightful coffee shop to get you going and also offers bicycles for rent. Try their excellent restaurant which offers a decently priced lunch buffet. The staff is friendly and informative. Review © 2007, Wcities |
