Travel Agent Magazine reports,

For the second consecutive year, the city of Budapest is running its “Winter Invasion” campaign and its spend-three-nights-get-one-free promotion to entice tourists. For the first time, the event is being co-sponsored by the Oneworld airline alliance, of which Hungarian carrier Mal?v is a member. The campaign runs from December though March of next year-typically Budapest’s slow tourist season-and also is being sponsored by the Hungarian National Tourist Office, the Hotel Association of Hungary and Budapest Airport. During the campaign time period, guests who come to Budapest and stay three nights at one of the participating hotels, which include the Four Seasons, Le Meridien, Marriott and Kempinski, will receive a fourth night’s stay for free.

It’s a beautiful city, with lots to see.

Krakow has the stunning Wawel Castle (above), a delightful Old Town Square, and wonderful restaurants and other attractions.

You can fly into Warsaw or Krakow directly, or take a train from Prague, which will take a good chunk of the day.

Consider staying in an apartment–it’s economical and comfortable, and you can often end up in a very central location. Plus you have a kitchen, so families, parents, and budget-conscious travelers of all kinds can make their own breakfasts, heat baby food, or just make a nice cup of tea any time.
