Hotel Erzsebet

Hotel Erzsebet - Budapest

Hotel Information & Location

The history of the hotel dates back to more than hundred years...

The idea of building the 3-star Hotel Erzsebet in the heart of the city came up in 1867 at first, when new multi-storied palaces and boulevards began to be built in the place of small, old houses and narrow overcrowded streets. Hotel Erzsébet was opened in 1873, the year when Budapest, Hungary's capital was born by the union of three small villages: Pest, Buda and Óbuda (Old Buda). The small hotel was named with her permission after Sissi, Queen Elizabeth (Erzsébet), the wife of Emperor Francis Joseph, ruling the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy at that time.

The age-worn house was closed in 1976, and it was even pulled down, and the modern three-star Hotel Erzsébet was opened in the summer of 1985 in its place. Since then the hotel has been renovated several times, and today Hotel Erzsébet preserves only its excellent traditions from the more than 100-year-old past.

As a result of recent reconstruction works finished in 2002, Hotel Erzsébet offers freshly refurbished and stylish air-conditioned rooms all with direct-dial telephone, Internet access, colour TV with pay-movies and satellite programmes, minibar and sound-proof windows on each floor.

Hotel Erzsébet is situated in the heart of the city within a few minutes stroll from the primary business-, financial-, cultural- and commercial centres, and the famous shopping street, Váci utca. Due to its perfect location, the hotel offers a first class moderate accommodation and services for tourists and business travellers as well.
