What things cost in Budapest

Prices in Budapest spread far wider than any single "from" figure suggests, and 94% of the catalogue can be cancelled free of charge. So the useful question is not what the cheapest ticket costs, but which band buys which kind of day.

That is in line with Hungary as a whole, so price alone should not decide where you spend your days.

How far ahead should I book in Budapest?
