Free night in Budapest
Written by Karen BryanThe Hungarian National Tourist Office is running a Winter promotion where some Budapest hotels offer the third night free you if you pay for 2 nights or the fourth night free if you pay for three nights. More than 60 hotels are taking part in the promotion. Unfortunately I couldn’t ascertain which hotels had which offer until I searched at each hotel individually. The offer is available for stays from 1 November 2008 to 31 March 2008.

Although the three nights for the price of two offer sounds good it’s always worth checking hotel prices with a hotel price comparison site such as HotelsCombined.com. I had quick look and there appear to be quite a few hotels for around £25 a night for a double room.
The Budapest Christmas Market runs from 29 November until 24 December 2008, so you could justify the trip as a Christmas shopping foray.
Budapest is another destination which is on my “would like to visit” list.
I was there last June – absolutely roasting hot and very sunny. I had heard lots of good things about the city, but honestly found it somewhat disappointing. The musuems often had little English material available and there is no nightlife worth mentioning.
Having said that, walking along the waterfront after dark is most spectacular and should not be missed.
Can we get discounts if booked early?
