Budapest Nightlife
Many parts of Budapest are beautifully floodlit at night, especially the area around Budapest castle. There is also plenty of night life. Here is an extensive listing of casinos, clubs, pubs, and bars in Hungary’s capital.
Some of the most popular places include:
The Las Vegas Casino (V. Roosevelt tér 2, Tel. 317-6022) is open day and night, and the Tropicana Casino (V. Vigadó u. 2, Tel. 266-3062) from 11 a.m. until 6 a.m.
The Moulin Rouge (VI. Nagymező u. 17, Tel. 373-0577) hosts revue and cabaret but is also a coffee house and restaurant all in one; it is open until four in the morning. As indeed is Old Man’s Music Pub (VII. Akácfa u.13, Tel. 322-7645).
Both Franz Liszt Square (near the Oktogon) and Ráday utca are places full of bars, restaurants and intimate little cafés that appeal particularly to young people. Most are open until one or two in the morning.
Here is a list of clubs, their contact details, and opening hours. See here for information on gay and lesbian venues in Budapest.
