"I sit on a glittering cliff" – writes Attila József in his famous Ode, inspired by the Palace Hotel in Lillafüred. This Neo-Renaissance hotel, standing by Lake Hámori, is an iconic retreat for generations. Opened in 1930, Palotaszálló quickly became a popular resort for the elite of the time, reminiscent of King Matthias’ hunting lodges with its stunning hanging gardens and medieval-style bastions. The hotel hosted conferences, diplomatic events, and even famous guests; parts of the 1934 Hungarian film Meseautó (Car of Dreams) were filmed here. After the war, the Palace Hotel operated as a union resort and has undergone extensive renovations since the 2010s, restoring its former glory. In 2015, it became part of the National Heritage Registry and remains a favored destination for couples and families seeking romance and relaxation. Its unique ambiance is enhanced by vintage furnishings, stained glass windows, and the special atmosphere of its tower rooms. Visitors to Lillafüred can enjoy many activities: romantic walks in the hanging gardens, boating on Lake Hámori, exploring the caves, or a nostalgic ride on the forest train. The hotel’s historical exhibition and a ride on the chairlift over the forest provide additional memorable experiences. Lillafüred enchants visitors year-round, offering relaxation in every season.
