The capital of Hungary, the city of Budapest is known as the ‘Paris of the East’, a place where pretty buildings, amazing culture and a brilliant cosmopolitan feel combine.

If you’re looking for an exciting city break that doesn’t cost as much as London or Paris, but that has everything you could possibly want in terms of restaurants, sights, experiences and nightlife, Budapest is a great option. A romantic and youthful capital, the city is as perfect for couples and groups, as it is for families with older children.

There’s a reason why the city is often compared to Paris. Strolling through the city, it’s easy to miss your footing, simply because your eyes are always being drawn upwards – the towering buildings are just that beautiful. From the grand Parliament building to St. Stephen’s Basilica to the imposing Buda Castle, there’s more than enough for sightseers to get their teeth sunk into, and that’s forgetting all of the museums, opera houses and columned squares that also call Budapest home. If you’re a romantic soul, here, you’ll be in your element.

One of the city’s other unique aspects is its extensive range of spas. There are 118 springs and boreholes in the metropolis, which, over the years, have given rise to a great number of bath houses and spas – perfect for kicking back and enjoying a soak while jets of water massage away aches and pains you might have got while exploring.
