Restoration work began almost immediately, and the hotel owners plan to reopen the place next April. Here are some photos of the renovation process, assuring all that the new hotel will be even more stunning than its predecessor.

According to index.hu, Hotel Silvanus in Visegrád will reopen on 1 April, but guests can book rooms in November. Operational manager Róbert Pintér said the hotel’s rebuilding was progressing well.

Hotel Silvanus is close to King Mathias’s Renaissance Visegrád palace, but you can embark on a hiking tour to the nearby woods and mountains. The charming town of Visegrád is also close and the entire place gives you a unique opportunity to glance upon the picturesque Danube Bend, one of Hungary’s most popular holiday places.
