We also stayed at Adina in two locations in Vienna, and they are comfortable, attentive, and reliable hotels. However, the hotel in Budapest is a bit far from the station and might be a little hard to find. On the plus side, it is very quiet because of that.

The eSIM was very easy to install. I had excellent 5G coverage throught my trip and never experienced any issues with the internet connection. The network was excellent both in cities and in rural areas. Highly recommended!

one of the highlights of our visit to budapest. make sure to take the cruise right before sunset so you get to see the views before and after it gets dark. the parliament building lit up is amazing. highly recommended!

Highly recommend this cruise around sunset where you can see the main attractions during the day and also when it’s dark enough for the buildings to be lit up. Head to the back of the boat to go upstairs for the best views.

I had booked a boat trip without drinks included. On board, we were offered a glass of champagne accompanied by live music. It was a wonderful added touch and made for a lovely evening.

Booking this cruise was hands-down one of the highlights of my trip! Timing it for sunset was absolute perfection because I got to experience the best of both worlds: watching the city glowing in the late daylight, followed by the breathtaking view of Budapest fully illuminated at night.
Seeing the Parliament building and the bridges light up from the water is pure magic. The whole experience was smooth, relaxing, and incredibly well-organized.

The tickets arrived quickly, and boarding was immediate after QR code verification. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The night view gets dark after 9 PM, so if your schedule allows, I recommend booking a later time.

We booked this at the last minute the day before, and it was absolutely worth it.
We were worried because of a sudden rain shower that day, but it didn’t take away from the stunning night views at all. There was a roof, so we were able to stay dry and enjoy the experience comfortably.
It became one of the most unforgettable memories for our family.

I thought it would just be a pipe organ performance, but it felt more like a complex concert with opera vocals and flute playing as well. The elderly bass singer who performed the opera pieces, in particular, turned out to be a world-renowned vocalist, not just in Hungary, when I looked him up. It was truly moving to see such a powerful performance from someone who defied his 80 years. A slight drawback was that even though I bought a Zone 1 ticket, people who arrived earlier had already taken the seats, so I ended up sitting in Zone 2. There's no difference in the musical experience even if you don't buy the more expensive, better seats.
