“Hotel Orion strikes me as a practical choice, especially given its location on the Buda side near Castle Garden. I appreciate the thoughtful touches like air-conditioned rooms, yet the true value lies in its proximity to the Elisabeth Bridge and the Danube. Its history as Budapest's first privately operated hotel adds a certain charm, making it a solid base for city explorations.”
