Mathias Rex
Historic charm in Szentendre with easy access to the Hungaroring.
About this hotel
Fans basing themselves here for the Hungaroring race weekend will appreciate the Mathias Rex's location in the historic Old Town of Szentendre. While not directly adjacent to the circuit, the guesthouse offers private parking on request, a crucial amenity for those driving to the track. The HÉV Suburban Railway Station, just 500 metres away, provides an alternative for reaching the circuit area, though a transfer might be needed. After a day of intense racing, returning to the quiet, non-smoking rooms with air conditioning and free internet offers a welcome respite. This setup allows for a balanced race weekend, combining the thrill of the track with the charm of a historic town. The ability to secure private parking simplifies race-day logistics significantly.

Our take
The Mathias Rex is a solid choice for families or small groups attending the Hungaroring Grand Prix who prefer a quieter base away from the immediate circuit bustle. Its private parking is a major plus for those with a car, and the proximity to public transport offers flexibility. However, fans looking for direct, walking access to the circuit or a lively, race-themed atmosphere right outside their door should consider other options closer to the track.
- ✓Book your private parking well in advance, as spaces are limited and highly sought after during race weekends.
- ✓Consider using the HÉV Suburban Railway for part of your journey to the circuit, but plan for potential transfers.
- ✓Arrive early on race day to navigate traffic and secure your spot, even with private parking at the guesthouse.
