Getting there and practical details

Neighborhood
Buda Castle district

The Royal Guard (Főőrség) restaurant and the Royal Riding Hall stand in the Buda Castle district of Budapest, in the Hunyadi court, and are hired for weddings, business and protocol events and receptions. The newly reconstructed Royal Riding Hall covers 640 square meters with an exceptional ceiling height. The operator has nearly 20 years of catering experience for private and corporate events.

Seminars and company events

The venue offers business and protocol events and partner meetings, and its catering team says it can serve corporate events of 100 up to 1,000 people. The restaurant can be set up as a café-style room, a traditional reception, theater style, conference style or a U-shaped layout. The Csikós Courtyard and the historic buildings provide an outdoor setting.

A hussar program can be added to entertain guests: hussars parade in the courtyard in authentic costumes. The catering team can also serve food at external locations, and it recommends the Millenáris venue in central Buda for larger external events.

Weddings and receptions

The Royal Riding Hall is described as a venue for large wedding celebrations in the heart of Buda Castle, with a historic backdrop and refined style. The Royal Guard restaurant offers a modern event space in a historic environment suited to weddings, with the Csikós Courtyard and city views. Extras on request include a master of ceremonies, a DJ, a selfie box and a hussar escort.

Rooms and capacities

Royal Riding Hall: 640 square meters, with high ceilings, for large weddings and events. Royal Guard restaurant: flexible layouts including café, reception, theater, conference and U-shape. Csikós Courtyard: outdoor space. Seated and standing guest numbers per room are not published on the pages provided.

Because no seated capacity is published, organisers should send the guest count, the format and the date early, and ask for a floor plan of the Riding Hall for that layout. A 640 square meter hall can hold a seated wedding dinner with a dance floor or a standing reception for a larger group, but the split depends on the stage, the catering stations and the dance floor you choose.
