Budapest and related destinations

Thermal baths offer a quintessential Budapest experience, where locals soak in steaming waters beneath ornate domes at Széchenyi or Gellért. The Danube divides Buda's hills from Pest's boulevards, with the Chain Bridge connecting these distinct personalities. Parliament's Gothic spires demand attention, especially when illuminated at night. Margaret Island provides an urban escape with medieval ruins and musical fountains. Café culture thrives in grand establishments where writers once plotted revolutions over perfect pastries. The ruin bars of the Jewish Quarter transform abandoned buildings into eclectic drinking spots filled with mismatched furniture and local hipsters. For the best city views, climb to Fisherman's Bastion, where fairy-tale turrets frame panoramas worth every step.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Budapest

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Budapest is between January and March, when hotel prices are likely to be lower.

During your visit, you can explore iconic monuments, fascinating museums, stunning cathedrals, and historical churches, as well as enjoy the vibrant theatre scene, delightful cafes, and charming shopping areas. This timeframe offers great value for money for those seeking an enriching experience without breaking the bank.
  2.

It's advisable to enable email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales and exclusive last-minute offers, increasing your chances of saving. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so you're more likely to see the best options. With these strategies, you'll be well-prepared for a spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on various factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in a Budapest hotel. For those seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and, at times, better value.

You may also explore independent hotels located further out, which are usually more likely to be affordable and can provide a more authentic experience.
