Visegrád in the Central Hungarian region is famous among Hungarians and foreign tourists alike. The town’s castle, which consists of a lower castle and a citadel, is of great importance. In the Middle Ages, it was one of the most important residences of the Hungarian kings. Later, it was the site of the 1991 meeting of the Visegrád Group (V4). However, this article is about something that is a bit different: a ghost hotel in Visegrád.

The construction of the hotel started in 2006. However, the contractor left the site in autumn 2009, Sokszínű Vidék writes.

There are 230 rooms on 12 floors and a 32-metre high andesite rock in the lobby. The Visegrád hotel started life as a five-star hotel 17 years ago but has not been completed ever since.

The ghost hotel is still half-finished. Krisztián Borbély (Ambient Lights) recently took some breathtaking shots of the “haunted” building. The photos were made available to Daily News Hungary by the photographer: check them out below!
