Fall under an enchanting spell at BOTANIQ Castle of Tura- a historic home turned contemporary escape near Budapest- Hungary. Once the home of a wealthy baron- this unique place has been lovingly restored to its former glory- complete with sweeping grounds- nineteen elegant rooms- and two swimming pools. Every element of BOTANIQ Castle of Tura is designed for indulgence and comfort- from the a la carte breakfasts in the Palmhouse to the expertly mixed cocktails. But the heritage and setting of the castle have been carefully considered too. Take the botanic gardens- where beautiful flowers and healing plants like peppermint and lavender inspire the treatments in the spa. Or the Clarisse restaurant- named for the granddaughter of the original owner. This dining space takes gastronomic experiences to a whole new level- with a tasting menu that recreates different levels of the ancient forest. And the hotel takes a highly sustainable approach to food and drink too- using locally sourced meat and fish- as well as vegetables and honey from a nearby village. When you have had your fill- venture beyond the hotel and discover the charms of Budapest- rich in art- culture- cafes- and architecture. There are museums and galleries aplenty- as well as sweeping views across the Danube from the Old Town. Return to BOTANIQ Castle of Tura for an excellent glass of Hungarian wine with dinner- before climbing into your sumptuous bed and drifting off on a mattress made from pure cashmere. BOTANIQ Castle of Tura is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
