The Best Hotels Near 1552 Boutique Hotel, by the Record
-
An 18th-century building in the heart of Eger's Baroque old town, with 15 rooms and suites where antique stonework and contemporary furnishings coexist in reasonable harmony. It's a boutique hotel in a city better known for its castle and its egri bikavér than for anywhere to stay, which makes the find feel a little unearned. The team can arrange wine country tours, and the associated restaurant is a short walk through the castle walls.

Two wood cabins on the quieter, less-trampled shore of Lake Tisza, each with its own outdoor sauna and jacuzzi. The lodge leans hard into the nature-retreat idea, stocking the cabins with board games and an acoustic guitar for the full digital-detox fantasy, then thoughtfully including WiFi and Netflix in case the fantasy fades by evening. The lake draws rare birds and has a long cycling path running its edge, so there's plenty to do before you sink back into the hot water.
