EuroCheapo's Guide to Cheap Hotels in Budapest

Neighborhood Description

Rózsadomb—Rose Hill in English—is where Budapest's Turkish history is most readily apparent. Gül Baba's Tomb, the burial grounds of a Bektash dervish and poet, sits less than 200 meters west of the Danube. Bath houses, introduced to Huns by the Turks, dot the area. The Lukács Baths, built in the 19th century, sits along the Danube on the east side of Rózsadomb while the Király bath house, built by the Turks in 1566, is located 500 meters south in the Víziváros neighborhood. The steeper parts of the neighborhood have a quiet, residential feel. Clothing shops, grocery stores and cafés line the wider streets downhill closest to the Danube. The riverfront is also where the expansive parklands of Margit Island can be reached via the Margit Bridge.
