festetics palace印象

This splendid palace has to be seen from outside (open for free 24/7), but it is also worth visiting!The ticket is a bit pricey, but it includes chic palace interiors and an impressive coach collection! We are not cray fans of either, still we enjoyed our visit a lot! So don't be put away by negative reviews! ;)There are other museums too, but we didn't visit those.

If you're tired of lying all day on the beaches of Balaton and looking for a day-trip to take, I'd suggest you pay the Palace a visit. With its beautiful architecture and grand gardens with impressive outdoor spaces, it really is worth a visit. We did not pay to go in (it was pricey in our opinion), but we did make the most of the Palace grounds and simply soaked up its splendid ambience.

The Festetics Palace is probably the most beautiful Hungarian castle, still all the grandeur does not explain the high ticket prices. 2300 Ft for the entrance + 1500 to make pictures is way too high for this place. The gardens and the exterior of the building are beautiful, there's a fountain, a small lake, it's a very nice place. Inside the palace you can visit a set of rooms, some furnished, some not, showcasing the aristocratic lifestyle of the past ages. The biggest attraction is the library, with an amazing collection of old books and and the bookcases themselves are masterpieces.If only the prices were not that high, I would give it a 5 star, but still it's a must see if you are in the Balaton area. Take a stroll in the garden and admire the baroque building, its a breathtaking castle.

While accepting that people are different and that we are all entitled to different opinions, I must say that I am surprised at some of the negative comments here. One contributor labels the carriage museum as "crap" and not worth the admission. My suggestion is that if you don't like old carriages - don't go to a carriage museum, simples! Personally, I have no great passion for carriages but I can recognise a superb collection when I see one, and I cannot imagine a larger or better collection than this.Architecturally the house is stunning from the exterior and although I agree that it looks a little tired on the inside, there is still plenty of interest to see; and re a previous comment that the rooms are full of pictures of people who used to live here - that is kind of the deal in stately homes!The gardens are also well laid out and very pleasant to walk around - or take a carriage ride if you prefer. And far as cost is concerned, while I agree that there should be no extra charge for taking photos, I thought that overall the value was very good as it gave access to several very good museums. I agree with the lady who commented on the sadness of the "hunting" museum, but when you put those feelings aside ( albeit with some difficulty I agree) it is a magnificent collection nevertheless. The model railway museum is also very good and, as already stated, the carriage museum is splendid.We had a very pleasant couple of hours here and would recommend it.

We visited on Wednesday, and half of it was free of charge. Our friends went on the next day and nothing was free. The gardens outside are free to visit and are nice. We visited the main palace and it is very well organized in a circular route, every room is explained in English, Hungarian, Dutch and Russian. You can find ponies rides for kids, playground (probably not free) and carriage rides.

We didnt see the palace inside, but the surroundings were beautiful. Lovely place with several museums.

The time we spent having spa treatments was deducted from our time in the thermal lake - and although they said it would be it was not refunded so we did not do any other treatments.

The palace is a great example of late Baroque architecture and it is accompanied with a grand beautiful garden, fountains, a restaurant and a cafe.There is an interesting small museum which is dedicated horse carriages/cabs.If you like history, literature or at least Harry Potter, you'd be thrilled to visit a fantastic library in the palace.

Loved the parks and fountains, and the building is very pretty. They hold evening concerts at designated times. While visiting the parks we had a ride on one of the chariots, which was fun and not at all expensive (unlike in many other cities).

The palace exterior and garden are quite nice, but the interior is nothing to write home about. A handful of furnished rooms, and a lot of boring sketches (I mean like actual rooms full of nothing but pencil drawn sketches of flowers and fruits). If you ask me don't bother with any of the paying crap, you will be disappointed.
