Description

History and Location: Tradition and style... Hotel Astoria, built on the site of the medieval town walls, is one of the most charming old style hotels of the Hungarian capital. As the slogan of the hotel goes, Astoria offers "Tradition and style..." with its last turn-of-the-century atmosphere. Hotel Astoria was opened in 1914, its name was given by the owners and Mihály Gellér, the first General Manager of the hotel, who formerly worked for the world-famous Waldorf Astoria in New York, and was an acknowledged expert in hospitality at that time. During the 90-year past of Astoria the hotel was reconstructed and modernized several times but its unique grace was carefully restored. The Empire style interior decoration, the marble cover and fancy carpets, the crystal chandeliers, glittering mirrors and stained glass windows, the marvelous works of art invite the guests for a romantic journey back in time. Film producers and directors often take the advantage of the excellent facilities of the hotel, which provides perfect scenery for film shooting. Due to its excellent services and ideal location in the heart of the historical city centre, within walking distance of the administrative, business and cultural districts and the famous shopping areas of Váci Street, the hotel is very popular among foreigners and citizens as well. After an exhausting day spent with sightseeing or shopping it is good to sit back and relax, have a delicious dinner or a fine coffee in the Empire Restaurant Astoria Café Mirror evoking the ambiance of "la belle époque".
