IHG Hotels & Resorts is proud to welcome Verno House Budapest to Vignette Collection, part of its luxury and lifestyle portfolio - now the second largest in the world. A boutique retreat in the heart of the city, Verno House Budapest, Vignette Collection will this summer mark the Hungarian debut of IHG's first collection brand, a fast-growing family of distinct hand-picked hotels each offering one-of-a-kind stays in destinations to remember.

Vignette Collection properties are unique in their identity, yet united by the vision to offer a more authentic way to travel. Verno House Budapest, Vignette Collection presents an urban oasis overlooking Liberty Square, evoking the idea, born in 19th century Budapest, that one can only truly appreciate all the modern attributes of a city if there is a nurturing natural environment to escape to from time to time. The hotel is designed to be a sanctuary where guests can recharge before the next day's explorations.

Nestled between the Danube River and Liberty Square, Verno House has historically been a favorite meeting ground among artists, politicians, scientists and philanthropists of the late 19th century, a role it continues to embrace to this day. Guests are invited to discover the destination's illustrious cultural hub, the city's most sought-after attractions mere moments away, with a relaxing retreat to retire on the corner of Szabadság Street and October 6th Street.

There are several distinct characteristics which make a hotel a true Vignette Collection property. One such hallmark is Memorable Rituals, which celebrate each hotel's unique identity. Verno's Treat Bar - staged in the lobby - evokes fond memories of childhood. From iconic treats that have been enjoyed for generations to innovative creations paying homage to Hungarian culinary heritage, guests are invited to sample a range of candies and chocolates that showcase the traditional flavours of Hungary, offering a taste of indulgence and a moment of respite from the city's rhythm.

As part of IHG's ambitious Journey to Tomorrow plan to drive positive change for people, planet and communities, each Vignette Collection hotel has its own "A Means For Good" initiative. United by a shared vision to support the communities in which they operate, each property partners with a local non-profit organisation to spearhead a positive contribution to local causes. Available to purchase within the mini bar, Verno House, Vignette Collection partners with Kék Madár Alapítvány (Blue Bird Foundation) who aim to promote workplace opportunities for those with disabilities through their chocolate brand, BeSweet, created by employees with disabilities.

Verno House Budapest, Vignette Collection seeks to offer a space for guests to bond, breathe and bloom, a notion reflected in its design. Ethereal natural light, verdant greenery, bold pops of color, and a signature cedarwood scent evoke a sense of vibrant serenity, whilst public spaces follow a palette of warm hues and neutral shades, accented with abstract furniture and sculptural lighting installations. Books and board games encourage guests and locals alike to gather and embrace a sense of community. Its 48 stylishly appointed guest rooms are equipped with locally created BOTANIQ Collection amenities and striking urban views, with Deluxe, Premium and Suite options available, with city or park views. The Corner Suites notably boast floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Budapest's characteristic Art Nouveau architecture.

The hotel's Michelin Guide-recommended Flava Kitchen & More, with 106 covers, serves a menu of inventive North African, Latin American, and Middle Eastern-inspired delicacies, alongside beloved traditional dishes. Menu standouts include Chicken Lahmacun, a traditional thin crispy flatbread topped with perfectly seasoned meat, and the Hungarian-favorites Beef Cheek Stew with spätzle and mushrooms and Goulash. To complement the chef-led gastronomic journey, an extensive selection of Hungarian and international wines, champagnes, and cocktails are also available. Taking inspiration from the world's most popular culinary destinations, Flava Kitchen & More combines fresh, seasonal ingredients with masterful preparation techniques. A vibrant ambiance serves guests both indoors and on its charming side-street terrace for al-fresco dining. A live DJ enhances the Flava experience on weekends.

The dedicated BOTANIQ Collection Wellness Department at Verno House Budapest, Vignette Collection transports guests to a tranquil sanctuary, complete with a Turkish steam bath, Finnish sauna, whirlpool bath, and fitness centre. Guests may also select from a full menu of indulgent massage and facial treatments, featuring all-natural products and ingredients.
