Hotels near Buda Castle Quarter

General Info

The Buda Castle Quarter is the area of Budapest, Hungary that directly surrounds Buda Castle. It has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to the concentration of historically significant buildings located there. There have been people living in the area as far back as the 1200s, making it one of the oldest permanently settled areas of the city. The castle itself was built by King Bela IV after the invasion of the Tartars, and the castle’s location on Buda Castle Quarter was chosen by him personally. Within the narrow confines of the Buda Castle Quarter are four major churches or basilica, six museums, the castle itself of course, and numerous other historical buildings and houses of antiquity. The streets themselves are historic sites, with many squares, fountains, and statuary. Like many other old city centers, the Buda Castle Quarter boasts a plethora of restaurants, coffee shops, theaters, boutiques, and other activities for pedestrians, whether they be tourists or locals. At night, as the shops close, the nightclubs open, and many remain open until dawn. In addition to all of the history and modern diversions, the location gives splendid vistas of the city and river, including from the walkway in front of the National Gallery and the Fishermen’s Bastion.
