Why Buda Castle?

  • Your guests see the city's most famous view: the Danube, Parliament and the Chain Bridge.
  • The Royal Riding Hall and the Royal Guard were rebuilt under the National Hauszmann Programme. The buildings themselves are part of the programme.
  • Hotels, museums, wine cellars and ballrooms are within a short walk, so international guests stay in one place.

  • On foot: from Clark Ádám Square up the Royal Steps.
  • By funicular: the Budavári Sikló runs from Clark Ádám tér up to the palace level.
  • From Várkert Bazár: escalators and a lift take guests up to the castle gardens.
  • By car: the Castle Garage under the Royal Palace, with a lift up to Csikós Court.
