Where to Stay in Budapest ✔️ TOP Hotels by Area & Price

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Budapest, the capital city of Hungary is a vibrant city and the ideal destination for anyone interested in history, beautiful architecture, thermal baths, gastronomy, and nightlife as well. In case you’re planning a visit to this city, congrats! Wonderful choice!

Now the next question you might be thinking about is where to stay in Budapest, am I right? And this is where I come to the rescue!

Deciding on the perfect district for your trip might be a tedious and overwhelming task, especially for first-timers, as Budapest is quite a big town. There are so many areas to stay in Budapest and each of them has its own vibe and unique pros and cons!

In this ultimate Budapest accommodation guide, I will explain everything you need to know about how Budapest is organized and which are the best areas for all types of tourists and budgets.

NOTE: Budapest is quite an affordable city, which also means there are many visitors (more than 4.4 million per year, to be more exact) planning a vacation there. This also means that good accommodations sell out REALLY fast, so it’s always better to book as far in advance as you can, trust me!

That being said, let’s jump right into it!

Quick Picks for Your Stay…

If you need to take a quick decision for your stay in Budapest I gathered here the best accommodation options in District V, the very center of the city, also known as the Inner City or Downtown Budapest:

• Best upscale hotel: Aria Hotel Budapest
• Best middle-priced hotel: TG Design Suites Aparthotel Budapest
• Best budget hotel: Maverick Hostel & Ensuites

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Should you stay in Buda or Pest?

Deciding if you want to stay in Buda or Pest is the first thing to do before finding your perfect accommodation. But is it better to stay on the Buda or Pest side? Even though the two halves are well-connected, they have a different vibe:

• Buda is calmer, charming and fit for laid-back travelers; it’s on the West of the Danube river and is the more residential/local side of the city
• Pest is vibrant, always awake and basically the opposite of boring; it’s on the East of the Danube river and where most of the tourist attractions are located. 

I personally think Pest is best for most tourists as it where you will most likely spend the majority of your time while visiting all the sights of Budapest. 

Here is a map so you can easily understand how Budapest is divided in Buda and Pest, and visualize all its ditricts:

Now let’s dive deeper into the subject! Budapest has no less than 23 districts. Here are my personalized neighborhood recommendations for all types of travelers:

1. District V: Budapest Downtown – for first-time visitors
2. District I: Budavár (Castle District) – best area for luxury
3. District II: Rózsadomb – for families
4. District VI: Terézváros – for budget travelers
5. District VII: Erzsébetváros – for nightlife
6. District VIII: Józsefváros (The Palace District) – the coolest neighborhood
7. District IX: Ferencváros (Jewish Quarter) – for foodies
8. District XIII: Angyalföld – for green areas

I hope everything’s a bit more clear to you by now. Now let’s find out which are the best hotels in each of these 8 districts of Budapest:

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

1. District V / Belváros – Lipótváros – best area for the first-time

I’ll say it right from the start: District V, also known as Belváros – Lipótváros, is THE best area where to stay in Budapest for first-timers or for people who only have one or two nights in the city!

District V is on the Pest side and it’s basically the heart and soul of the city; actually, this is exactly what “Belváros” means in Hungarian – downtown. So if you were wondering what is the best place to stay in order to be close to all the main tourist attractions, cafes, bars and restaurants in Budapest, this is it!

Some of the main attractions you’ll find here include the Parliament building, St. Stephen’s Basilica and, of course, the famous Chain Bridge.

There is one downside of staying here, though. Because this district is so popular, it can be quite expensive, so it might not be the best choice for budget travelers who don’t want to stay in hostels (there’s plenty of those all over Budapest).

But it’s pure heaven for luxury travelers, as there are so many 5-star hotels here… and if you book them far in advance you could even find some good deals!

Luxury (US$160 and up)

• Aria Hotel Budapest by Library Hotel Collection – In case you’re looking for a gorgeous thermal hotel in Budapest, look no further!

This hotel is the ideal choice if you want to feel like you’re a queen (or king) in its own castle! Everything scream “luxury”, from the beds to the restaurant and the building overall.
• Budapest Marriott Hotel – If you want to stay in a Danube hotel in Budapest, this one’s a great choice as you’ll be super close to the river! Actually, ALL of their rooms have Danube views, can you believe it? This is the way the hotel was constructed and I think it’s a unique advantage!

2. District I / Budavár (Castle District) – best area for luxury

In case you’re interested in sightseeing and the best tourist places in the city, then District I, called Budavár is the perfect choice for you! It’s actually one of the most iconic (and exclusive) areas in Budapest!

District I is centrally located on the Buda side, West of Danube River. Some of the attractions and sites of this area include the Budapest Castle, Széchenyi Chain Bridge (which connects this neighborhood to District V), Rudas Thermal Baths etc. not to mention the beautiful historical buildings you’ll see everywhere you look around.

District I is also a great place for travelers who want to indulge, as you’ll find some amazing luxury hotels here, as well as chic shops, bars and world-class restaurants. I’d definitely recommend it to travelers who are not afraid to spend some money to get a great service, or even families traveling with children.

Luxury (US$160 and up)

3. District II / Rózsadomb – where to stay for families

If you go a bit North from the Castle District (which I described above), you’ll arrive in the second neighborhood of Budapest – Rózsadomb.

This area is perfect for travelers looking to avoid tourist traps and enjoy the city from a local’s perspective!

Now if you ask me, I think Rózsadomb is a bit underrated. But it’s so charming! Some of the things you can do here include a romantic walk on the beautiful streets, some relaxation at one of the three baths in the area: Lukács Thermal Bath, Veli Bej or Kiraly Bath or you can indulge in some local food at Fény Street Market Hall.

No worries, even if District II is not the “epicenter” of tourist spots in Budapest, you’ll be close to the center of the city, so you won’t miss out on anything! But it’s a great choice for families or those of you who want a calmer district, far away from the hustle and bustle of Budapest city center.

Here are your best accommodation options in District II:

Luxury (US$160 and up)

Erzsébetváros is also known as the historic Jewish Quarter of Budapest and it’s the best place for tourists interested in vibrant nightlife and dancing ‘til the sun comes up!

And here’s a fun fact: this is the smallest neighborhood in the city! Some of the highlights of this area include the New York Palace and the biggest synagogue in Europe and the second biggest one in the world – Dohány Street Synagogue.

You’ll also find TONS of good bars and local restaurants here serving international cuisine, as well as pubs and, of course, the famous ruin bars. It’s a great place to stay in Budapest if you want to be close to cheap beer and cool nightclubs for all tastes!

Luxury (US$130 and up)

The highlights of this neighborhood include the National Museum, Natural History Museum, and Szabó Ervin Library. You’ll also find plenty of local restaurant and cafe options, as well as many art galleries and hipster bars.

BONUS: Best hotels near Budapest Airport

In case you have a late-night flight or you leave super early in the morning, staying as close as possible to the airport might be the smartest choice for you. Budapest Airport (BUD) is located around 20 km from the city center, which means around half an hour to it by car.
