World-class Wi-Fi in Budapest
Change language:
However, Hungary is not so good at gratuity. At the national level, the situation is even worse, origo.hu says.
Budapest placed second in the world rankings made by Hotelwifitest about the quality of the hotel Wi-Fi. In the Hungarian capital, 84.4% of the hotels fulfilled the at least 3Mbps download speed (this is the Netflix recommendation for SD quality streaming) and the 500 kbps upload speed (this is recommended by Skype for good, but not HD-quality video calls).
The list of 50 cities is led by Stockholm by 88.9% and closed by Albufeira in South Portugal by only 8.8%. The list contains those 50 cities about whose hotels the most information is available. Thus, it is possible that there is a city with better rates, but there was not enough data for inclusion in the list, origo.hu says.
The list of countries is led by South Korea by 92%, which is interesting because there is no Korean city in the list of cities (probably there was not enough data to get into the top 50). In that ranking, Hungary took the 10th place by 74.4%, and the last is Cambodia by 20.7%.
The wi-fi quality
(Corresponding to the percentage hotels)
- South Korea 92
- Japan 84.9
- Ukraine 82.1
- Switzerland 79.8
- Romania 78.0
Three of the continents provided sufficient data, moreover, instead of North America, only the USA is on the list, because there was just few information about other countries’ hotels and it only would have distorted the picture. Asia won the race by 50 percent, the second is Europe by 46% and the last is the USA by 35%.
