New Ritz-Carlton hotel to be opened in Budapest, Hungary

Budapest welcomes the opening of the first Ritz-Carlton hotel, steps away from the city's historical hot-spots and the Danube River

The Ritz-Carlton Budapest will be located in the historical Elizabeth Square and hosted within a protected 100 years old building.

The luxurious hotel offers its guests 200 rooms and suites in an elegant contemporary interior and exterior design, near the spectacular Danube River in a city that abounds in history and culture.

Herve Humler, president of The Ritz-Carlton, commented:

“It is an absolute privilege to open the first Ritz-Carlton hotel in Hungary. The Ritz-Carlton service standards are globally recognised and we’re delighted to bring them to a new market. Budapest is an extraordinary city and perfectly placed to welcome the newest property in our portfolio.”

The first property in Budapest includes a Club Level, a dedicated concierge and restaurant, high-tech meeting rooms and a lower ground floor ballroom. Guests can also enjoy 24/7 access to the complete Spa and Fitness Centre situated on the hotel's rooftop.

“The ‘Pearl of the Danube’, Budapest is perfectly located as the European gateway to travellers whether coming for business or leisure. But not only are we looking forward to welcoming our guests and sharing our vision and service standards; we are also excited to become an integral part of the thriving, vibrant city itself,” Herve Humler concluded.
