Best Luxury Hotels in Hungary

One of the most architecturally interesting countries on the planet, Hungary showcases a feast of art nouveau, baroque, neoclassical, medieval and Roman buildings – some of which serve as accommodations for visitors. The other major national draw is its thermal springs – of which there are over 300. Beneficial for medicinal, therapeutic and recreational purposes, these ancient bathhouses and sanatoriums are a wonderful place to relax and quite literally soak up some local culture too. And be sure to sample the unique regional nightlife – folk is big in Hungary, with traditional music played on a range of indigenous instruments.
