Budapest’s Párisi Udvar is where past and future shake hands, and where luxury has dazzled design lovers for a century. Now you can step inside. Thanks to Párisi Udvar Hotel Budapest, an exclusive guided building tour opens the doors of one of the city’s most jaw-dropping architectural gems. Registration is required for the walk, and spots are limited.
Expect a heady mix of restored grandeur and world-class craft: for years, architects, restorers, stone sculptors, engineers, IT specialists, hoteliers, and fine-dining pros have obsessed over every detail. On this tour, you’ll stroll through the renewed Párisi Udvar, soaking up ornamented passages, glittering glass, and the kind of elegance that made the building one of Budapest’s crown jewels.
Grab a ticket and you’ll also receive a 10% discount coupon as a guest at the Párisi Passage Café & Brasserie. One caveat: due to the theme and spaces visited, only guests aged 12 and up can join. Some restricted areas are accessible only via stairs—no elevator use is possible—and photography isn’t allowed in these sections. The first segment runs outdoors, so dress for the weather.
