Three Hungarian Castle Hotels Receive Heritage Hotels Award
Three Hungarian hotels operating in historic castles have been awarded by Heritage Hotels of Europe as an appreciation of the work done to “bring the historic buildings back to life”, the Association of Hungarian Historic Buildings and Castle Hotels said.

At the award ceremony in Vienna on Sunday, the Szidónia Castle Hotel (pictured above) in Röjtökmuzsaj, northwest Hungary, was awarded in the Heritage and Hospitality category and Castle Forgách in Mándok (pictured below), northeast Hungary, was awarded Heritage and Design prize.

The special prize in the Heritage and Experience category was given to the visitor centre of the Almássy mansion in Gyula (pictured below), southeast Hungary.


Heritage Hotels of Europe is an organisation comprising 13 member states aiming to promote coordinated marketing and cooperation between the members.
