New Year's Eve Budapest welcome 2010!

Dear Partylovers!

Budapest offers you a great selection of different music and party places for New Year's Eve.

In Budapest you have the chance to welcome 2010 in a jazz club, in a disco music party, in a party full of DJ-s, in a party in the style of the USA in the 1920's with swing, etc.

We think, that Budapest with its New Year's parties is a great place to say good-bye to 2009 and welcome 2010.

As we heard the weather will be quite warm, so you can even party on the streets of Budapest.

We still have free rooms for the period, so do not hesitate, write us an email, or click on our website and reserve your hotel, apartment, hostel, bed and breakfast or private room for New Year's.

Happy Holidays!

We wish all our guests,
blog readers, visitors, business partners

Merry Christmas
and a
Happy New Year!

Michael Jackson king of pop special memorial

It is always great to help tourists to find accommodation, but end of last week it was a special situation.

We had a nice couple from the Czech Republic, they were on their way through Europe, and they saw a newspaper here reporting about Michael Jackson's death. They were very surprised and shocked because they really liked the King of Pop.

They wanted to stay more days to watch the Memorial of Michael Jackson held in Staples Center in the USA. We had to find a cheap place where there is CNN on TV. It was not so easy but we tried our best and finally we found a nice studio apartment for budget price for Maria and Steve (the tourist couple).

They wrote this in our guestbook:

"We are very pleased and wanna thank you for everything that you have done. Jackson was our faveurite and we wanted to watch his memorial on TV, and you helped. And thank you for telling that there is a small memorial by Hungarians at the Kempinski Hotel, so we could remember to this great singer with other fans. Thank you again!"
