The historic Hotel Astoria is very conveniently located in the heart of Pest, a fact which must have greatly attracted its notorious former residents. The Gestapo made it their headquarters, as did the Soviets during the 1956 revolution and it is easy to see why. The dimly lit reception and café are ornately furnished and decorated with marble statuettes giving it an air of exclusivity. There are reasonably sized double rooms, executive suites and large apartments - those which have already been refurbished are comfortable and air conditioned.
