Located on the Buda side of the Danube, the Hotel Császár is a swimmer’s wet dream. With access to multiple swimming pools, framed photographs of famous Olympic swimmers (some of whom used to train in hotel waters), and reasonable nightly rates, this place is a gold medal winner.
The atmosphere of the Császár is that of a friendly country club. Originally a cloister, the hotel courtyard now features a 50-meter swimming pool. Canary yellow walls offset by white doors and crown molding reflect off clean, blue waters. The breakfast room, with its tall windows and charming, round tables, resembles a second floor club pool house overlooking the heart of Olympic training history.
Rooms are more basic, featuring plain white duvets and basic wood furniture. But once you’ve thrown on a swimsuit, chances are you won’t be spending much time inside.
Sound off the starting whistle too, because the hotel has a lot of amenities to boot. Not only do the health facilities offer sauna and massage, but the hotel has free parking, free Wi-Fi, and mini-fridges and air conditioning in every room, among other amenities. Some rooms are wheelchair accessible.
The hotel is just up the street from the Lukács bathhouse, the hotel can be reached with the 91 bus or 17 tram. It's close to the Batthyány tér Metro Stop.
