The Library Hotel Collection presents its most recent jewel, the luxurious Aria Hotel Budapest.
The first boutique hotel in Hungary is a design hotel offering a unique travel experience in the city centre of Budapest, combining luxury with generous amenities and guest-focused unpretentious service.
The hotel's theme blends the passion for music and beautiful architecture that Budapest is known for, paying homage to some of the world's greatest artists and composers. The Aria Hotel Budapest is a luxury boutique hotel with an exquisite design inspired by music.
To compliment the musical concept, master designer Zoltan Varro's vision was to simultaneously recreate the rich, lavish atmosphere of a historic Hungarian palace while also embracing visitors in the warmth and comfort of a private residence.
Each of the four wings is dedicated to one of four major genres of music: Classical, Opera, Contemporary, and Jazz.
Each room and suite features caricatures by internationally acclaimed artist Joseph Blecha to celebrate the world's greatest musical legends such as Maria Callas, Count Basie, Bob Dylan, James Brown and Hungary’s own Franz Liszt.
THE CLASSICAL MUSIC WING
The power and beauty of classical music is expressed through Neo-Baroque style furnishings which have been modernized with streamlined forms and colors.
Shades of hazelnut contrast with the vivid pop of turquoise to create a haven of sophisticated elegance, heightened by the drama of Venetian Murano glass chandeliers, coffered ceilings, and a historical Violin sketch etched into the custom-made carpets.
Dream the night away to the strains of music by Liszt, Chopin, Bach or Beethoven, just to name a few.
THE JAZZ WING
Inspired by the ambience of a 1920's jazz club, the Jazz rooms swing with cool Hollywood glamour.
The form of spotlights and polished chrome trunk-style writing tables, mixed with the edgy roughness of hard floors, exposed brick ceilings.
The accent walls were created utilizing the original brick from the historic 19th century building.
Highlights of Jazz rooms include Art Nouveau furnishings and a custom-made area rug featuring an etching of a Saxophone.
Jam with the legends of Jazz, from Billie Holiday to Miles Davis and Count Basie to B.B. King.
THE OPERA WING
Elegance and luxury await your arrival in the Opera Wing. These rooms revel in the rich marriage of Neo-Baroque furnishings modernized with streamlined forms and colors.
The pairing of cool shades of gray with sensuous shades of lilac and orchid create a lush and decadent color palatte.
The drama is heightened with Murano Venetian glass chandeliers, tufted velvet headboards and historical musical instrument sketches etched into the custom-made carpets.
Lose yourself in a masterpiece with music by Mozart, Handel, Puccini or Verdi.
THE CONTEMPORARY WING
The bright, fresh spirit of contemporary music is interpreted visually through the inspiration of the Pop Art style of the 1970's.
Bold colors and whimsical elements that include custom-made headboards create an ambience that's both fun and funky.
Spend a night with the Supremes, the Fab Four, the Prince of Pop, The Godfather of Soul, or the King himself.
“Pop music often tells you everything is Ok, while rock music tells you that it's not Ok, but you can change it.” ― Bono, On the Move.

The French spirit and a Parisian atmosphere that Émile introduced to his splendid establishment was happily embraced by the Budapest public.
The Swiss born pastry chef and chocolatier also introduced numerous innovations and quality of the highest standards: baked goods were beautifully decorated; sweets and bon-bons were packaged in artistic paper boxes of his own design.
