The name "König von Ungarn" (King of Hungary) is well deserved.

Many prominent names can be found in our guest book, which is well worth studying.

Apart from the highest demands in terms of comfort, convenience and luxurious living, these regal guests attached great importance to choice cuisine. We are proud to be able to maintain these standards today.
