How do I get to Harmonia Palace from Budapest Airport?
You have two easy options to reach us from Budapest Airport. You can take the public bus 100E to Kálvin Tér (one stop), and from there Harmonia Palace is just a 2-minute walk. The airport bus ticket costs approximately 2500 HUF.
Alternatively, you can take a direct taxi from the airport, which costs around 10800 HUF. The official taxi company at the airport is Főtaxi. No pre-reservation is needed. After leaving the arrival hall, you will find taxi booths where you can request a ride.

I would rather stay in. Which food delivery companies do you suggest?

What is the currency in Hungary, and where can I exchange money?
The official currency in Hungary is the Hungarian Forint (HUF). Credit cards are widely accepted throughout Budapest. If your card provider supports favorable exchange rates through their app (such as Revolut or similar services), we recommend using that option for payments.
If you prefer, currency exchange can be done at local exchange offices. A nearby option is Kadaan Change on Lónyai Street, within walking distance of Harmonia Palace.
