Away from the center of the city. Recommend excellent Hungarian restaurant nearby called Kisbuda Gyöngye. Not far from hotel by taxi.

Budapest is very much a walking city particularly with an increase of both one-way streets and traffic. If you want to take day trips out of the city often the best way is hire a car and driver from one of the major car rental companies, current rates are about 45-50 euros per day for both car and driver.

Stayed at Astoria, Hotel - Budapest, Hungary.

I took the cityrama city tour and thought it was excellent ..approx 3 hours. Easy to walk around central Budapest. I took the mini bus service from the airport. Very reasonable. A taxi back was four times the price. Ate at the Empire Restaurant in the Astoria Hotel. Very elegant and you must try the goose.

Stayed at Mercure Metropol - Budapest, Hungary.

Public transport is excellent and very cheap. Learn the rules about the metro, as the inspectors can be very aggressive. Best taxi firm is Citytaxi. Cheap, fast and reliable.

Stayed at Hilton Westend - Budapest, Hungary.

Budapest blends the old with the new. Plenty to see and do. Beware of taxis not linked to major taxi companies, who overcharge 500%. Also many scams using attractive girls in Vaci street to lure men into bars and then get charged $1000 or more for a few drinks. Check the blacklist of restaurants/bars held by the US embassy.
