Guide to Luxury Holidays in Hungary

Stunning cities, picturesque villages, and swathes of sprawling countryside await you. Hungary is every inch the European nation, where historic churches and traditional bathhouses sit shoulder to shoulder with 5-star hotels and cosmopolitan hangouts. Take a luxury holiday to Hungary to immerse yourself in history, marvel at spectacular buildings, and explore the beautiful countryside of Central Europe.
From the fairytale castles of the north to the vast open plains of the east, Hungary is a country of immense drama and beauty. The country’s beating heart is its spectacular capital city, Budapest. Famously split by the Danube, as indeed the whole country is, Budapest is - literally and figuratively - a city of two halves. Pest, on the east bank, is flat, lively and buzzing, while hilly Buda is all about quiet nobility. The duality at the capital’s heart extends to its incredible old-meets-new atmosphere. Restore your energy in the authentic bathhouses, delve into the country’s rich folk heritage at traditional dance shows, and then dine at Michelin-starred restaurants.
Beyond Budapest, culture-packed Pecs and historic Eger offer their own spin on the urban Hungarian experience. Though landlocked, Hungary is home to the largest freshwater lake in Central Europe, Lake Balaton. Head to the southern banks of this vast body of water and you’ll find a number of charming resort towns. On the hilly northern banks, you can explore famed wine country. In the east of Hungary, you can visit national parks home to spectacular forested mountains, underground cave systems, and many rare bird species.

At this time, numerous festivals take place across the country, many of which celebrate traditional music and dance.

you don't need a visa if you're a British citizen, so just make sure your passport is valid for the length of your break.

Taking a holiday to Hungary gives you the perfect opportunity to explore traditional Magyar food – but that’s not the only cuisine on offer. At our luxury hotels and in Budapest’s Michelin-starred restaurants, you can enjoy fine dining from around the globe, and excellent local wines and cocktails. At the traditional restaurants you can sample classic Hungarian dishes such as goulash, langos (deep-fried flatbread), and sweet treats such as dobos torte, sponge cake layered with chocolate buttercream and topped with caramel.

Insider Review
One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked. “What’s happened to me? ” he thought. It wasn’t a dream. His room, a proper human room although a little too small, lay peacefully between its four familiar walls. A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table – Samsa was a travelling salesman – and above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice, gilded frame. It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur boa who sat upright, raising a heavy fur muff that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer. Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be heard hitting the pane, which made him feel quite sad. “How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense”, he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn’t get into that position. However hard he threw himself onto his right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn’t have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before. “Oh, God”, he thought, “what a strenuous career it is that I’ve chosen!
