in downtown Budapest
An Art Nouveau ceremonial hall, Miksa Róth stained-glass windows, a parquet-floored grand hall and the elegance of a building erected in 1905 — from the ceremony to the banquet evening, W17 offers a unique and unforgettable setting for life's special moments.
Wedding venue and private events
For weddings, engagements and special occasions alike
The house on Wesselényi Street does not try to resemble anyone — this building had a voice of its own from the day it was born, and it has not lost it in the past hundred and twenty years. Its Art Nouveau façade built to the designs of György Kopeczek, the painted glass windows from the workshop of Miksa Róth and the mosaic-decorated interior create a setting into which a celebration fits almost by itself.
It can be hired for weddings, engagement ceremonies, anniversary dinners and exclusive private events alike — from 20 to 200 guests. The Ceremonial Hall can be arranged for both banquet and ceremony, while for more heartfelt occasions the Library or the Conference Room offers a solution close to the heart.
