This McDonald's is not your average fast food joint. In fact, it's been given the title of "world's most beautiful" and has been compared to a luxurious hotel. Located at the Nyugati Railway Station in Budapest, Hungary, this McDonald's has recently reopened after undergoing an eight-month refurbishment. And let me tell you, it's unlike any other McDonald's you've ever seen before.
Originally built in 1990 by the renowned Gustave Eiffel Company (yes, the same company that designed the iconic Eiffel Tower), this location has always been admired for its stunning architecture. With over 35,000 restaurants in 100 countries, McDonald's is a household name, but this particular location has been praised by Lonely Planet as the "most elegant" and by MIC magazine as "impressive" due to its elaborate colonial ceiling.
But it's not just the architecture that sets this McDonald's apart. The interior is a sight to behold, with ornate fixtures and fittings surrounding the famous Golden Arches. In fact, on Tripadvisor, it has a four-star rating, with many customers raving about the beauty of the restaurant. One reviewer, Kathryn E, described it as an "experience" and complimented its contribution to the beauty of Budapest. Another customer, onepolarbear, compared it to a 5-star hotel restaurant, while elindoo was blown away by its unique design.
Despite its recent renovation, this McDonald's has managed to maintain its original charm. It closed its doors in January for a 21st-century upgrade, including new kitchen technology, touchscreen kiosks, and the ability to order through the McDonald's mobile app. And let's not forget about the new food conveyor belt feature, where customers can watch their food being transferred between floors through a glass box.
But don't worry, the iconic ceiling is still intact. The designers made sure to preserve the original features of the building, such as antique lamps, a wrought-iron gate, and intricately painted stucco ceilings. And while they added modern design elements like mirrored glass surfaces and custom furniture, they made sure to blend it seamlessly with the historic charm of the site.
And that's not all, the McCafé has been relocated to the entrance level, and the outdoor area has been transformed into a stylish lounge-style terrace, perfect for enjoying a coffee in the bustling city of Budapest. McDonald's has also teased that there are more special features to be unveiled, making this a must-visit "landmark destination" that offers more than just burgers and fries.
If you find yourself in the area, make sure to stop by this luxurious McDonald's and experience it for yourself. Who knows, maybe you'll have a story to share about your visit. If so, don't hesitate to get in touch by emailing us at email. We can't wait to hear about your experience!
