Hi guys and Happy new Year !
So I spent New Years Eve in Budapest and stayed there 3 days.
First of all, I have to say that it was maybe a bad choice to go there in winter. It was quite cold as a wave from Russia arrived 2 days before. I didn't except that and I hadn't the appropriate equipment.
I visited a few things but the 31st everything or almost was closed.
The city is pretty, especially the part close to the Danube. You can visit beautiful places like the Parliament or the Basilica.
The bridges are also cool.
Maybe one of the coolest thing are the thermal spa all accross the city. You can find a lot of them with different temperatures baths (from 16 degrees to 70 degrees).
Now regarding the partys. I went to 2 clubs and 1 bar. The first club (Moulin Rouge) was quite bad. Hot chicks were in the VIP part with some hungarian rich boys and you couldn't get closed to them. They were maybe 70% of men and 30% of women. I met an hungarian hot chick. She was smiling to me and invited me to dance. When I told her I wasn't hungarian she totally lost her interest in me and looked disappointed. I thought foreigners would have a better reputation but that wasn't the case with her. She then told me goodnight and left with her friends.
The second club (Studio) was amazing. Maybe the best club I ever been to. It was huge, with 3000 persons. It was for the 31st so the club was full. There were a huge number of hot chicks. You couldn't make 3 meters without seeing a hot girl. I saw a lot of perfect 10s.
Problem is, as it was the 31st, most of the girls were accompanied by their hungarian boyfriends. The others single ladys were not so easy since they don't speak a good english. With the music it's almost impossible to start a conversion in this place and the only game that works there is to start dancing with the chick hopping she will like it.
We were approached by some chicks but they were quite ugly (like 5-6).
Another thing I noticed, hungarian guys take a lot of drugs. There was an amasing line in the bathroom and the boys entered at 3 or 4 to sniff things.
This club is located on an island on the Danube. Actually on this island you can find 4 or 5 clubs so you can change. For example at 6am you have the official after party/breakfast in another club.
Cost of life: It's obviously cheaper. You can eat in a good restaurant for 10€. Menu burger King: 3-4€
Cost of beer in a bar: 1€
Vodka in a club: 4€
Only bad point: the taxis. Maybe because we were strangers but a 10min taxi trip = 40€ !
I would recommend Budapest but definitely not during this period. If you have to go there, go from April to October when the weather is nice and you can walk in the city without feeling like a Mister Freeze.
It must be really hot in those clubs during the summer...
