We are back from 5 days and 4 nights of the greatest BabyMoon anyone could have asked for.
Hotel Parlament****
Hotel Parlament is located on the Pest side of Budapest, which is the ‘fun’ and more lively side, so obviously a perfect fit for me 😉
This is the nicest hotel we have ever stayed in and we had the most beautiful room.
Funny story, Jeremy put the wrong address in the GPS , and when we arrived at what we thought was the hotel, we were terrified because it was in a super rundown area with houses with bars on the windows.
and the location was perfect to tour all of the best areas of Budapest without having to drive anywhere.
I found our Hotel Parlament****
Hotel Araz (Araz Restaurant):
Goulash Soup
Mangalitza (Traditional Hungarian Pork)
I had:
Farm Chicken with Creamy Potatoes
Both of us LOVED the lunch so much that we even asked for a picture with the Chef (who just happened to have the coolest hat on I’d ever seen)
We would definitely have come back here for dinner had we had more time, but the lunch is perfect because it is quick, has great prices, and incredible food.
Lucky 7 Burgers: Although we didn’t have time to eat here, I really wanted to check it out and have heard amazing things.
If you are in Budapest, you MUST eat at
Jeremy again was more adventurous than I was and had:
Spring Pea Veloute with Goat Cheese Crisp
Herb Rib eye Steak. (this was the best steak he has ever had)
I opted for a much more Americanized meal:
Burrata and Heirloom Tomato for my starter
… So I got Fried Chicken Fingers and Fries. Don’t judge me. It was amazing.
The atmosphere is really cool in Es Bisztro.
BITE: The closest thing I have found to Cinnabun in Europe.
Our absolute favourite was our Authentic Hungarian Cooking Class with Kitchen Pixie.

I currently hold the record for highest crepe toss at Kitchen Pixie.
Finished Product!
We will truly never forget this experience.
Szechenyi Baths and Palmahaz Spa: The Szechenyi Baths are one of the most famous things to do in Budapest.
The gorgeous building was built in 1903 and has a rich history, especially of pools, that were built specifically for aristocrats.
Because I’m pregnant, I couldn’t go in the pools because I didn’t want to risk hurting the babe, but Jeremy had an amazing time switching from pool to pool, and trying out the many different Saunas.
The highlight for me, was the Palmahaz Spa.
Here we relaxed in hammocks, and got massages together.
Silverline Cruise with Folklore Dancing:
Jeremy and I had a blast on this cruise.
It was super entertaining and they even had Jeremy and I up on stage dancing at one point!
EUrama Tour: Your classic city tour, but with a more personal feel.
At the beautiful Chain Bridge on our tour
Royal Thai Massage: Another fantastic afternoon spent relaxing.
The Spa is located in a mall as well, so you can get some shopping in before you get pampered. Best of both worlds!
All in all, I give Budapest a 10/10.
Love Ash
