Making a Grand Entrance
The guest is met with a soaring centralatrium that rises six floors to a glass
roof. At its base, a huge decorative mosaic flows across the lobby floor,
echoing the art nouveau period and providing a breathtaking centrepiece to the
space. To the left, the lobby lounge serves afternoon teas with the understated
elegance of an earlier era. To the right, the lobby leads to a second atrium
housing boutiques and small, specialist shops. At the front of this arcade the
Royal Kávéház & Champagne Lounge offers the perfect place to relax and
watch the world go by.
When speaking of the accommodation in the hotel, the only standard is high.
Spacious, lavishly furnished and tastefully decorated, a superior room is a
place to dwell and enjoy the most carefully chosen facilities. The pinnacle of
luxury can be experienced on the fifth floor, where the Royal Suite seven bay

Sports
Despite having a population of less than 11 million people Hungary had always
been blessed with high quality sportsmen and women who had made the nation
proud. The first name that springs out of my mind is the great Ferenc Puskas
that with players like Joszef Boszik, Sándor Kocsis and Nándor Hidegkuti lead
Hungary football team to the World cup finals. Yet Hungary pride also of other
legends who had enriched Hungary's sports history with Olympic medals.

- Despite the fact that Football had never reached the amazing levels
witnessed during the Golden times, Hungary still pride of an
above average level of football. In Budapest the most popular clubs are
Ferencvaros, Kispest, HonvEd, MTK Hungária FC and Ujpest.
- Water Sports are very popular in Hungary. Like in football the
facilities are usually family oriented and they pride of cheap entrance
tickets.

Hungaroring, east of Budapest at Mogyorod. There is a great demand for
tickets and prices are not cheap.
