This is the facade of the old Hungária Fürdő in Dohány utca (in the VIIth district), an old spa which has been abandoned for decades now. Its day are probably counted, as this area is one of the most hit by the destructive expansion of new property developments by corrupt national and international property developers. This district has already seen some scandalous transactions and “developments”, but unfortunately the trend does not seem to break yet. It’s very said.
I don’t know the name of this architecture style, so anyone please help me out.
Budapest by the way has many thermal water springs, and Budapest has still many nice old spas which I hope can cover all soon on the pages of this blog.

It is Jugendstil / art nouveau / szecesszió, around 1910.
Admin, would you mind disclosing your name in your own blog???
Actually the facade and main entry are currently being renovated and will be included into a new 5 star Hotel…The facade was always a historic landmark and it is good to know it will survive…..
