ACCOMMODATION
We suggest two different options for accommodation during the festival.
Of course Budapest has plenty offers for tourist on every price level, but if we ware you, we would choose one of these options.
This 3 star hotel is located close to the city center, on the way to the main location (Bakelit). It's a brand new hotel with great comfort.
Our shuttle service to the main location starts from here.
Prices:
single room 42 euro/night - 49 with breakfast
double room 46 euro/night - 53 with breakfast
triplet room 67 euro/night - 78 with breakfast
B&B Hotel Budapest City
23 euro per night per person
The Factory Hostel is located in the same building of the main location of the festival. It's a bit far from the city center, but super close to the dancefloor. The hostel has dormitory rooms for 8-12 beds, and common bathrooms. If you are in a low budget and willing to make new friendships and have fun, you don't really want to go for sightseeing, but dance all weekend, than it's a great choice for you.
There will be separate rooms for girls and boys...
Factory Hostel - Bakelit
