Notes
Away from the hustle and bustle of Central Buda and Pest, Hotel Normafa is a short (20 minute) bus ride into the Buda Hills. I liked this hotel a lot - my husband found it too far away from the center of town.

I loved the fact that the heated pool was open even in mid-February. I took a nightly swim - crisp air, warm water - while my husband watched from our room.

Breakfast was included with our room and it was a nice spread.
