The Elegant Anantara New York Palace Budapest Hotel Opens
Joining Anantara Hotels, Resorts & Spas portfolio of European hotels, Anantara New York Palace Budapest Hotel is situated in the heart of Budapest, one of the most unique and fascinating capital cities of Europe. The opulent property is an architectural ode to the Belle Époque era, exuding old-world glamour blended with contemporary luxury.

Since its construction in 1894, the palatial building has acted as a gathering place for Hungarian intellectuals and is located on the sophisticated Erzsébet Krt boulevard on the Pest side of the Danube River. Designed by famed Hungarian architect, Alajos Hauszmann, the property features Italian Renaissance, Baroque, Gothic and Art Nouveau influences.

Located just a 20-minute drive from Budapest International Airport, Anantara New York Palace is comprised of 185 guest rooms and suites, accented by centuries old art and antiques. The two Presidential Suites each boast 135 sqm of space bedecked with handmade Murano glass chandeliers, custom-designed furniture, luxurious marble bathrooms and signature Italian design features.
