… the Chain Bridge and close to the shopping and business districts. Strictly speaking, the story of Budapest begins in 1873 when hilly, residential Buda and historic Óbuda on the western bank of the Danube River merged with flat, industrial Pest on the east to form what was at first called Pest-Buda. The capital of Hungary Budapest is situated along the Danube, in the heart of the Carpathian basin. Hilly Buda, which comprises one-third of the city?s area of 525 km? is located along the right bank of the Danube surrounded by low mountains. János Hill, with its 529 metres is the highest summit of Buda. Across the river sprawls flat Pest. The geology of Budapest has played a determining role in the city?s life over the course of history. Hot springs breaking through limestone mountains supplying water of 35-76 degrees centigrade gave rise to a flourishing culture of spas in the Roman Age and made Budapest one of the most popular spa cities of Europe. Budapest is dynamic, but also very attractive. Its geographical features - the Buda hills, the Danube and its bridges, the historical and new buildings - and the atmosphere of the city are attractions that draw many tourists from around the world. The Hotel InterContinental Budapest is situated right next to Chain Bridge on the Pest side, a location that lends new meaning to the term "Where East and West Meet" and overlooks the Danube River and the Castle Hill. Conventiently close to the shoping and business districts and only two minutes from "Váci utca", the shopping street of Budapest, the hotel has reputation for hosting its guests in style.

Cuisine & Cocktails : The Corso Restaurant and Bar is a dynamic new concept which integrates a bar, café, grill and restaurant into one intertwined continuum of sights, sounds and tastes. Views of the River Danube and Castle Hill can only be outdone by the summer ambience of the terrace portion of the restaurant and bar which is outside on the Corso, the pedestrian promenade along the Danube. With Asian and Mediterranean influences on infamous Hungarian flavours, the rotisserie, grill or wok of the hotel's show kitchen makes the preparation almost as exciting as the flavour.
