"A huge dolomite rock rising up from Hotel Gellért at its base marks one of the earliest inhabited parts of Budapest . The citadel atop the hill was built by the Austrians in the mid-1800s to better control the unruly Hungarians after squashing the revolution (it was later used by German SS troops in World War II). Other monuments dot the verdant landscape atop the hill, which is now surrounded by posh residences. The walk up from the hotel is steep but worth it for the view once on high."

The view from the top is very beautiful. You can see the Danube and some of the bridges that connect the city. It’s not very hard the walk all the way up and you can take breaks along the way. There are also some benches where you can sit down and relax. If you visit the city I think you also need to go and explore this place. Unfortunately the top area where the statue is located is closed due to renovation and you can’t go there

Breathtaking views from up the hill, you can see the Danube river and its magnificent bridges from above. Highly recommended.

Unfortunately a lot of the paths are under construction now, but the view is still definitely worth it, especially at night. It can get crowded on the viewing terrace but if you claim a spot early you will be fine.

The only reason I’m giving it 3 is because of all the construction work that’s going on.
