Each room has its own unique atmosphere, furnished with original vintage and modern furniture, complemented by the highest level of comfort and technology, index.hu reports.

There is even a cobbled terrace which can be enjoyed when the weather is good. Gastronomy plays a big role in the restaurant owned by the Zsidai Group. In the vibrant restaurant, dishes are prepared on charcoal grills. Gourmet street food, vegetarian dishes, great flavours and unique ingredients..

Bagatelle Gardenhouse

Not only Baltazár, but also Bagatelle Gardenhouse is on the list. The magazine highlights the design and art of the hotel, and of course, the garden that features in its name.

The gastronomy here is also unmissable: there is a famous breakfast restaurant and a confectionery. The 6 individually designed rooms can be rented separately or the whole villa can be rented as one. The hotel pays special attention to the environment. Single-use plastics are shunned. Soap and drinking fountains made from natural ingredients are also used for this purpose.
