About Friends Hostel Budapest

The newly renovated Friends Hostel offers all the services most Budapest hostels can provide: central location, friendly staff, clean private rooms, dormitories and apartment, free internet/wifi, guest kitchen and reception. Then WHY should you choose US?

Because we want to show something about Hungarian art and artists as well.

With our decoration, design and set up we would like to show you our painters, inventors, architects and our city. You can also see the art pieces of our contemporary artist friends.

So if you are a bit culture minded and would like to know a bit more about us, about our culture and the famous Hungarians, hopefully we can offer something for your taste.

If it was not enough, here are some more reasons:

We know, from our backpacking experience that:

* Comfort and relaxing sleep is especially important so we provide good quality mattresses, and bed linen

* Our Location is ideal for sightseeing, visiting spas, museums or clubs.

We are situated on the grand boulevard of Budapest city centre among cinemas, theatres,

plenty of restaurants, clubs, and cafes, near the Opera House, the Music Academy, Liszt Ferenc square (Budapest's most trendy square) and the Andr�ssy avenue.

There are 12 Restaurants, 14 cafes/pubs/clubs, 3 shops/supermarkets, 4 banks with ATM, 2 Money Exchange offices , a museum (House of Terror), a theater (Mad�ch), a cinema (�r�kmozg�), a metro stop (Oktogon, M1), 2 tram stops, 3 bus stops, a tourist office, a post office and a pharmacy within 300 meters from us.

* Our Staff members are all locals, living in Budapest Centre, so can give you the most accurate information about museums, sights, events or places to go out. We will be happy to plan your trips, or arrange activities for you inside our outside the hostel.

* Cleanliness is a crucial point and our newly renovated and refurbished hostel (in March 2010) will surely meet your expectations!
