Salzburg


Salzburg is a city with lots of good restaurants, however, it's not easy to find one just wandering around the old town. And if you find a nice one, chances are that it is fully booked. Make sure to figure out where you want to go and order a table before you get hungry.

Mokkar

Sas u. 4, Budapest

Tapas, mediterranean food, large choice of wine. Rather posh. Both for dinner or just for drinks.

Erzsébet tér 7-8, 1051 Budapest

If you book early in advance you might get quite good rates for this 5 star hotel. Spoilers: a 20 per cent city tax will be added on top of the price and you cannot afford anything else in this hotel. Only breakfast and parking would be the price of a single room at some reasonable hotel. Nice spa, though, maybe only a little small for a hotel of this category.

Crowne Plaza 'The Pitter'

Rainerstrasse 6-8, A-5020 Salzburg, t +43 662 88 978-0

Typical American standard hotel chain as they come by the dozen. But very high standard indeed. Pool, sauna, and a very(!) impressive breakfast buffet. Centrally located, 10 minute walk along the river Salzach to the old town.
