A magical world where past and future meet, Párisi Udvar has been thrilling lovers of dazzling beauty and elegance for more than a century. Now, thanks to Párisi Udvar Hotel Budapest, you can finally walk through the renewed icon yourself on an exclusive, registration-only building tour—an intimate look at one of Budapest’s most impressive gems.
What Makes It Special
The building’s revival has captivated everyone from the client and architects to restorers, stone sculptors, engineers, IT experts, hoteliers, and fine-dining pros. The result is a meticulously reborn landmark where world-class luxury sparkles beneath historic detail. This guided walk doesn’t just show you public spaces—it lifts the curtain on hidden sections too, offering the kind of behind-the-scenes access that turns design fans into devotees.
Good to Know Before You Go
The tour is strictly for ages 12 and up due to the theme and location. Access to restricted areas is via stairs only—there’s no elevator available—and photography is not allowed in these closed-off sections. The first part of the visit takes place outdoors, so dress for the weather. Registration is mandatory.
Tickets and Perks
Tickets are 9,990 HUF per person (about 27 USD). Each ticket doubles as a 10% discount coupon at Párisi Passage Café & Brasserie—perfect for capping the experience with coffee or a bite under the glittering glass arcade.
