Hotels in Pest, Hungary
Pest is the flat, eastern side of Budapest along the Danube River, with a continental climate of cold, snowy winters and warm, sunny summers. It's famous for the neo-Gothic Parliament building, the ruin bars in the former Jewish Quarter, and the city's thermal baths like Szechenyi. In winter, you can soak in the outdoor pools at Szechenyi while snow falls around you, then warm up with a glass of mulled wine at a ruin bar like Szimpla Kert; in summer, stroll the Danube Promenade at sunset or rent a bike to explore the riverside from Margaret Island.
