Matild Palace, a Luxury Collection Hotel Budapest Shines With Several Awards
Budapest's most impressive luxury hotel has recently won numerous international and domestic professional awards, which is not surprising, as its 5-star services and interior design solutions, planned down to the last detail, are considered unique in Hungary.

"We are extremely proud that the iconic Matild Palace is not only acclaimed in Hungary but internationally as well for its meticulous renovation and exceptional design solutions. We aimed to create something memorable in terms of interior design as well, which is the first impression of our guests who arrive from all over the world, and which perfectly complements our goal to create lasting memories for everyone visiting Matild Palace.”  - said Selim Ölmez, General Manager.

Construction Excellence Award

The southern Klotild Palace has won this year's Construction Excellence Award from the Foundation For Constructors' Masterwork. The award was established by the National Association of Hungarian Building Contractors and the Construction Industry Association to recognise buildings of outstanding architectural and technical quality and the organisations involved in their construction.

Klasszis TopDesignAward – Hotel, Guest Room and Café of the Year, 2022

The Klasszis TopDesign 2022 professional competition is unique in the Hungarian hospitality industry, targeting Hungarian hotels, small and large restaurants, interior and exterior designers and suppliers. It is the only international level competition in Hungary that takes a comprehensive approach to design, special solutions and evaluates all aspects of design within the hospitality and hotel industry.

The most exceptional interior design and furnishing solutions, as well as various complementary products and design solutions relevant to the field, are judged by a jury made up not only of leading figures from the domestic interior design profession, but also internationally renowned experts.

Matild Palace won the top prize in three categories this year, as it was named the Capital's Klasszis TopDesign Hotel of the Year, the Klasszis TopDesign Guest Room of the Year and Matild Café & Cabaret, which recently burst onto the nightlife scene with its fantastic revue shows, won the Klasszis TopDesign Café of the Year.

Opened in summer 2021, the iconic Matild Palace has undergone a major, detailed renovation in the 5 years leading up to its opening. The southern Klotild Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Budapest's most impressive buildings, was built 120 years ago under the patronage of Archduchess Marie Clotilde of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha.

The architectural designs were created by architects Péter Dajka and Antal Puhl, while the interior of the palace is the work of award-winning designer Maria Vafiadis, founder of MKV Design. The design combines modern luxury elements with original motifs, restored based on drawings and photographs of the era.

Judging is based on design, quality, service, innovation, originality and commitment to sustainability. The competition is regionalised, covering Arabia, Europe, Africa, Canada, Central and South America, the Caribbean, the United States, the United Kingdom and Asia Pacific. 

In Europe, the Matild Palace luxury hotel was singled out as an outstanding hotel, winning a total of 6 different awards in the competition.
