2 Best Hostels with Happy Hour in Budapest

In a city where ruin bar drinks already cost half of what you'd pay in London or Paris, a hostel happy hour is the ultimate pre-game move. These 2 Budapest hostels run daily happy hours in their in-house bars — cheaper than the ruin bars, more social than drinking alone, and the perfect launchpad for a night in District VII.

§ 01 — Traveler's take
Happy hour at Wombat's was where my entire Budapest trip changed. Sat down alone with a cheap beer, started talking to the person next to me, and by the time happy hour ended we had a table of 8 people heading to Szimpla Kert together.
