Coming in at number 5 on the list is the Hungarian capital Budapest.
Budapest is the largest city in Hungary and was formed in November 1873 when the West bank city of Buda amalgamated with the East bank city of Pest, creating a single city occupying both sides of the River Danube.
I stayed at the popular Mellow Mood central hostel, which is on the busy high street of Besci Utca on the Pest side of the Danube. 
Recommended for its great positioning and cheap prices it proved to be a satisfactory, friendly place to spend my time in Hungary. Rooms where modest with a large window overlooking the bustling streets below. I opted for the dorm, which sleeps 4-6 with a shared bathroom.
There’s plenty to see and do in Budapest, from visiting the beautifully crafted parliament building to relaxing in one of the many Turkish baths. Entry to the baths is relatively cheap (approx £6) and is worth every last penny, I decided on the Rudas Baths which boast a central octagonal pool with smaller pools situated around it at varying temperatures. It’s also home to three saunas and numerous steam rooms, definitely the best way to relax after a day out shopping and sightseeing.
Afterwards a walk around Budapest’s Castle district’s monuments and museums is a must to really appreciate some of the historic attractions this city has on offer. Followed by a meal and a cherry beer in one of the many fine restaurants situated close by, be sure to try the local cuisine especially the goulash.
For those who are looking to party be sure to stop at Jam Pub on the Buda side of the river. Restaurant by day it then turns in to a club with live bands and DJs at night serving drinks until the early hours.
