Thanks for everyone’s input. Looks like this is going to be an easy decision for our 40th anniversary trip.

Budapest's a great city. And the famous chain bridge is a large scale version of the one originally constructed to cross the River Thames at Marlow.

One of my city break highlights - good value, friendly, loads to see and do. A great city. Have a great time when you go

We went there and stayed here. It was superb. Rooms were quirky but very nice, staff were excellent and the attached restaurant was delicious. Reasonable too

These are a good thread. Budapest duly added to shortlist for future break

I forgot to mention how bohemian Budapest is.
For us oldies there's a pinball museum. The entrance fee is not prohibitive, and you get the opportunity to play on well over a hundred pinball machines, as part of your entry fee.
There's a beautiful Beatles pin ball machine for £15k on eBay. I had a few games on that. They also have a Rolling Stones, a Captain Fantastic pinball machine, and loadsa others.
