Hotel Rába - Győr
Hotel Information & Location
Hotel Rába is situated in the middle of the baroque centre of Győr, within easy reach from the M1-E60 motorway - half way between Budapest and Vienna.
It was exactly 100 years ago that the Hotel Rába opened under the name of its founder the Meixner-Royal Hotel.
The hotel has been the centre of social life in Győr for a hundred years, and many celebrities have stayed here during their visits.
Győr, Hungary's second richest town in historic buildings outside Budapest has won Europe-award for the protection of the historic buildings, in acknowledgment of the reconstruction of the Baroque centre of the town. Churches, palaces, museums, characteristic corner-balconies and narrow lanes, all reminders of a historic past, invite visitors to take a walk in the centre of the town. Our sacral monuments in and around Győr are the memorials of 1000-year-old Hungarian Christianity. Saint István (Stephan) founded the Episcopate of Győr together with the first dioceses one thousand years ago. The Basilica and the Bishop's Castle erected on Káptalandomb (the Chapter Hill) are symbols of the Christianity of West-Hungary.
Sports & recreation
Where the four rivers meet at the foot of the medieval town walls, the water sports enthusiasts can enjoy a number of natural beaches, artificial pools and the Thermal & Adventure Bath. The Thermal & Adventure Bath is located at the junction of the Mosoni-Danube and the Rába rivers, from where you can enjoy a marvellous view of the historic town centre.
The annual international sports events also contribute to the high reputation of Győr.
Festivals
Several national cultures meet here during several renowned festivals, e.g. the Győr Spring and Summer Festival and the Mediawave Festival.
Ballet
The Ballet Company of Győr soon became popular both in town and the region. After winning the heart of the Hungarian audience, the Company won international success within a short period of time.
Pannonhalma Abbey
The Benedictine Abbey of Pannonhalma has been a sacred place for the Hungarians for more than a thousand years. The foundation of the monastery was instrumental in the development of the Christian culture in medieval Hungary. It is a "world heritage" opening a window onto the values of universal human culture.
