Train to/from Hungary and Hotels in Budapest

International railway fares onMagyar Allamvasutak (or MAV), the state railway company, from Hungary to other Eastern European countries are now at least 10 times higher than they were under the old regime.

To reduce confusion,specify your train by the name listed under the following sections or on the postedschedule when requesting information or buying a ticket . You can do both at the threetrain stations in Budapest that serve international trains, but it�s easier tocommunicate with the information staff at MAV�s central ticket office at VI Andrassy �t35 in Budapest.

Almost all internationaltrains now arrive and depart from the Keleti (eastern) station.

Leave from Nyugati (western) station (1-349 0115) while Deli (southern) station (1-349 6293) handles trainsto/from Zagreb and Rijeka. But these are not hard-and-fast rules, so always make sure you check which station the train leaves from when you buy a ticket.

If you just want to getacross the border local trains are cheaper than international expresses, especially if you�re on a one-way trip.

Tickets & Discounts

Budapest is no longer the bargain basement for tickets on the Trans-Siberian railway that it once was. In fact, MAV will only write you a ticket to Moscow, you have to buy the onward ticket from there.

As with the buses, international train tickets can now be purchased with forint, and there is no requirement to produce official exchange receipts. Travellers� cheques and credit cards are not accepted.
