Historic Boutique Hotel

Pest-Buda Design Hotel is housed in a historic building in Budapest's Castle District, originally opened in 1696. The interior, designed by Tibor Somlai, blends rustic charm with industrial touches like copper lamps and Hungarian oak floors. Each of the 10 rooms features limestone bathrooms, wood paneling, and artwork by Hungarian graphic designers.

Rooms & Amenities

Rooms include flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, laptop-compatible safes, and air conditioning. Bathrooms have walk-in rain showers and L'Occitane toiletries. Some suites offer private terraces, Nespresso machines, and soundproof walls. Premium bedding and pillow menus ensure a restful stay.

Dining & Drinks

The on-site restaurant serves Hungarian homemade-style cuisine, with a seasonal terrace overlooking Matthias Church. Breakfast options include egg plates, Croque Madame, or duck hot dogs, plus bread, butter, jam, orange juice, and coffee. Live accordion music plays in the evenings.

Prime Castle District Location

The hotel sits on a quiet cobbled street, a 10-minute walk from Batthyany Square and Fisherman's Bastion. The castle bus provides easy access to Pest. Nearby landmarks include Buda Castle (1 km) and the Hungarian Parliament Building (2.5 km).

Services & Extras

Safety features include carbon monoxide detectors and a security system. Guests receive complimentary tea, daily bottled water, and high-speed Wi-Fi. The Zsidai Group, with over 30 years in hospitality, owns the hotel and operates several city restaurants.

“Pest-Buda Design Hotel, steeped in history since 1696, stands apart in Budapest's Castle District with its intimate, 10-room setting and locally inspired design. The hotel's bistro is a destination in itself, promising authentic Hungarian flavors just steps from Matthias Church and Buda Castle. In my opinion, this is an ideal choice for cultural travelers seeking an immersive and personalized experience.”
