1. Budapest is cheap AF
Budapest is, of course, world renowned for its beauty, its culture, its architecture, and its rich and storied history.
But let’s be real, those aren’t the reasons your booking your stag do in Budapest – it’s the exchange rate, of course! (And by “exchange rate” we mean “cheap booze”).
But really though, in comparison to pretty much every other European city, everything just costs less in Budapest.
And we’re not just talking cheap booze (you’ll be amazed how little a bottle of beer costs), but entertainment, food, accommodations, and pretty much anything else you’re going to want to see and/or do during your time here is going to be more affordable than you can even believe.
Want a nice imported bottle of beer from a nice pub in downtown Budapest? 850 Forints (HUF, Hungary’s currency) max.
Which, to put it in perspective, is about 2 Euros, or 1.7 GPB – or, less than what’s in between your sofa’s cushions at this very moment.
In fact, you probably have enough buried down there for a few rounds already.
And really – that’s just where the fun begins! Dinners, cocktails, nightclubs, and whatever else your devious mind can think of it, you’ll find everything well within your budget.
Bottom line is you just get more bang for your buck here in beautiful Budapest. And, no, that’s not a double entendre. (Or is it?)
Check out the crazy but completely accurate and current exchange rates for yourself directly from the Wall Street Journal, the most trusted name in money stuff.
2. Buda Best
I’m sure you’ve heard from your cousins best friends neighbours girlfriend former roommate about the simply ah-mazing time they had in Budapest, and how you just HAVE to go. Well, now, you don’t have to just take their word for it! (Even though it sounds to us like they are cool and would be fun to party with).
Countless publications – some even respected ones! – have named Budapest one of the top destinations in all of Europe. The world, even. Check out for instance – Budapest is the #1 Best European Destination of 2019 – and they have “Best Destinations” in their name, so they should know! Also, TimeOut named Budapest a top destination, and here Budapest is listed as the #4th most instagrammable city in all of Europe, whatever that means!
So, if chart-topping European party cities aren’t really your thing, just listen to your stodgy parents and go have a quaint little stag do at your local community center!
