Gresham Palace
Many hotels use the 'palace' moniker without justification, but not the Gresham. Built in 1906, this architectural delight is a masterpiece of art nouveau design, both inside and out. Many of the fittings, including Zsolany ceramics and a stained glass window by Miksa Róth, are original, while the rest were lovingly restored in 2004 when the palace received a glorious make-over. The Gresham has all the trappings of a 5-star establishment, including a fitness and wellness centre, and all 179 rooms are blessed with art nouveau touches.
