Located in the heart of District VI (the "down town" of Budapest), many of the city's must see attractions are accumulated in the area, and it is these top hotels near the Nyugati Railway Station that will have you living it up where all the action is.
It's a close tie between the two nearest hotels; the Metro Hotel and Hilton West End. The former is a modest and inexpensive 2 star lodging where the latter is a 5 star upscale hotel - let the budget decide.
Our next three picks are conveniently located along the Great Ring Road; the Radisson Sas Béke Hotel, a charming hotel with staff dressed in turn of the century uniform in third, the Cotton House Hotel, a travel back in time to 1930's America in fourth and the modern but slightly crammed City Ring Hotel in fifth place.
The classy and stylish NH Budapest and the contemporary Adina Apartment Hotel Budapest are both equipped with its own bar and wellness centre.
The Yellow Submarine Youth Hostel and Caterina Hostels are fully equipped, no-curfew budget accommodations popular with back-packers - both conveniently located along the Great Ring Road.
The Figo Apartment in the theatrical district just off the Andrássy Avenue takes last place only because of being furthest from the Nyugati.
