President

The 4-star Hotel President is located in a traditional 19th century Hungarian building in downtown Budapest. It provides an ideal base for visiting Hungary's capital, as it's in the middle of the government, business and historic districts, close to the US Embassy and the Hungarian National Bank, the Parliament and Danube river.

The President offers a range of 152 luxuriously furnished classic rooms and suites, all with free Wifi and a complimentary mobile phone, satellite TV and walk-in shower. 48 of these have been designed in a more vibrant, contemporary boutique style, with Superior suites offering a balcony with city or garden view. For business visitors or special events, there are four conference rooms hosting up to 200 people, with all the requisite technological and catering facilities. You'll enjoy fabulous meals in the Intermezzo Restaurant, which offers both traditional Hungarian and international dishes, and perhaps a cocktail on the Intermezzo Roof terrace, with its stunning all-round views of the city. In winter, this terrace has a unique appeal as an ice skating rink. You'll also have the option of visiting the President Wellness centre, where you'll find a gym, saunas, Jacuzzi and a 12-metre long heated pool.

This sophisticated period hotel lies within walking distance of the city's most important sights, just a few hundred metres from the Hungarian Parliament, St. Stephen's Basilica, and the Danube. There are plenty of urban transport links, and within five minutes' walk you'll find a variety of bars, restaurants, clubs and shops.
