1056 Budapest, Váci street. 36.

The southern part of the palace, which surrounds the Pest end of the Elizabeth Bridge like a gate, commonly known as the Matild building, began a new life as a luxury hotel, just like its counterpart on the opposite side. The southern Klotild Palace was renovated according to the plans of Antal Puhl and Péter Dajka.

During the project, which is now officially known as the Matild project, the palace was transformed into a luxury hotel, maintaining a period-appropriate exterior while preserving the original building’s DNA in its interior design: its fundamental structure, spirit, and key elements were adapted to new requirements. It successfully regained its faded grandeur and period elegance. To the outside observer, the primary noticeable change is the building’s restoration and purification, with the details hidden in the internal spaces not visible from the street. The renovation had to balance the heritage requirements with the high service standards set by the Marriott hotel chain’s The Luxury Collection brand.
