Budapest is having its luxury moment and it's just getting started.
In 2026 alone, the Hungarian capital is welcoming 8 new upscale and lifestyle hotels. The kind of pipeline that tells you everything about where a destination is heading.
Leading the charge: The St. Regis Budapest, now open inside the breathtaking restored Klotild Palace: 102 rooms, 39 suites, a full spa with pool, hammam and sauna, and event spaces that feel like they were made for exceptional gatherings.
And the wave doesn't stop there. SO/ Budapest is transforming the iconic Chain Bridge address with 350 rooms, a rooftop restaurant and club, and full meeting and wellness facilities. Ruby Hotel brings 181 rooms and social spaces to the magnificent Corvin Palace. Puro Budapest arrives late summer with 212 rooms, a garden restaurant, wine bar, bakery, rooftop terrace, and plunge pool. And Voco Hotels by IHG enters the Budapest story through the D8 property this year.
For groups, incentives, and events this is the moment to put Budapest on the agenda.
