Snapshots of Budapest - Part 3 - Boscolo New York Palace Hotel


Before travelling to Budapest I joked to Aaron that I'd probably be happy not to leave our hotel for the 48 hours we were in town.   Well the thing is, now that we're home again, I'm plotting an anniversary trip so we can do just that :)   This place is gorgeous!! 




Anywhere with lots of twinkly fairylights and huuuge glass chandeliers wins my vote :)





Christmas shopping and the baltic windchill looks as if it's taken it's toll on this fellow guest :)

the stairs were impressive ...I just looked and took the lifts ...



the central atrium ( which was decorated like an advent calendar) from our 4th floor ... Aaron had to take this picture because my vertigo kicked in :S


the lights in the bedroom were gorgeous too.

The cafe and restaurants were exquisite !!






Not many hotel restaurants are this fabulous - the service was faultless and the food amazing, it was here that the hotel really won us over !!


oh and the ceiling was quite pretty too :)


noooo !! not ALL mine ... just sampled a few Hungarian wines.... as you do.

I love this place - and it was a very famous restaurant before WW 2.

it was one of the favourite place of all the best literature-ppl and journalists at that time in Budapest...
