Regarding its appearance, the hotel located in Dohány street, which was rebuilt from the ruins of the former Hungaria Spa in 2010, successfully combines the elements of Secession, Art Deco and modern design. Due to the restoration (and partly to amendments), it has regained all of its former ornaments, including reliefs, lamps and friezes, thus inspiring the young artists. Continental Hotel Budapest is a luxurious hotel and it has been recognized as a winner in the Top Hotels for Romance category of the 2015 TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice awards for Hotels, ranking 23th best hotel in Hungary. The hotel is built on the site of the former legendary Hungária Spa and the historical Continental Hotel in Budapest’s city centre. The nearby Jewish Quarter with its atmospheric streets, market and cultural legacy including Europe’s largest synagogue and the Jewish Museum, together with the area’s restaurants and retro bars evoke a special mood that cannot be experienced anywhere else in the world.
