Step into a fairytale for Sunday lunch in Miskolc. The Lillafüred Palace Hotel (Palotaszálló) throws open the doors of its Hunyadi Restaurant every Sunday for a lavish Sunday Brunch, inviting families and friends to swap cooking stress for long, lazy hours of great food and live music. The buffet runs 12:30–16:00, with a generous spread and a relaxed, celebratory vibe set against one of Hungary’s most romantic backdrops: the lakeside castle, the famous Hanging Gardens, and the region’s lush forests just outside the windows. Address: 3517 Miskolc, Erzsébet Promenade (Erzsébet sétány) 1.
What’s on the buffet
The lineup is deliberately abundant. Expect 2–3 kinds of soup to start, followed by 4–5 mains that mix homestyle comfort with restaurant polish. Fresh salads anchor the table, while an array of desserts and seasonal fruit rounds out the feast. Live music drifts through the Hunyadi’s high-ceilinged room, setting an easy tempo that encourages second helpings and lingering conversation. It’s designed to feel both special and effortless—the kind of Sunday that resets the week in the best way.

Lillafüred’s magic, all year
If you grew up traveling in Hungary, chances are Lillafüred is an evergreen memory. It’s the place of breath-stealing photos: the country’s tallest vertical waterfall, the neo-Renaissance castle by Lake Hamori (Hámori), the flower-lined promenade encircling the Palace Hotel (Palotaszálló), and the famed Hanging Garden terraces stepping down the hillside. Winter hush or summer shimmer, spring’s fresh greens or autumn’s thousand colors—this Northern Hungary gem rewards every season. Give yourself and your favorite people a little time, unwind in a restorative setting, and leave richer in one-of-a-kind moments.
More ways to dine
From autumn to spring, there’s also à la carte service in the medieval-tinged Matthias Restaurant (Mátyás). Its gorgeous stained-glass windows depict iconic buildings from historic Greater Hungary, casting jewel tones across heavy wood and stone. The kitchen leans into Hungarian, regional, and international dishes, shaped by the seasons for a satisfying, contemporary take on tradition. Whether you’re chasing a classic or something new, the culinary team builds a full-on gastronomic experience around local rhythms and market-fresh produce.
Plan the perfect Sunday
The Palace Hotel’s (Palotaszálló) brunch is as much about the setting as the spread: arrive early, stroll the lakeside, and wander the Hanging Gardens before settling in for lunch. After dessert, linger for the music, then slip outside for one more view of the waterfall and the castle’s storybook silhouette. Miskolc has plenty on the cultural calendar, and Lillafüred is its restful counterpoint—an easy escape that still feels like an event. Organizers reserve the right to make changes to dates and programs, so book, follow, and check updates—and make the most of your Sunday in one of Hungary’s most captivating places.
