Due to the construction of a new Metro line at some places, these
include Keleti railway station and Kálvin tér, it might
be a bit more difficult to
find your way. Szabadság bridge is open only for pedestrians,
the routing of several public transportation lines is altered.

of the hotel.

Deák tér, here transfer to the M3 line and go to Kálvin tér.
