Anastasia Chukovskaya
Hotel building and cafe Gerlóczy look attractive in any weather. In summer, the terrace is surrounded by greenery and is lighted by multicolored lamps in the evening. In winter, stingy nature proves the building's elegance and the plaids on chairs make the coziest square of old Pest even cozier. The corner building Gerlóczy fits Kamermayer tér with all its guests squinting and drinking morning coffee, reading newspapers and putting goose paste on fresh bread. The monument to the first mayor of Budapest Károly Kamermayer stands with its back to the cafe and looks like a figurehead of a magnificent ship. You feel no hurry here, you just want to read a newspaper with a cup of coffee, have a lunch and listen to the singing of a tiresome canary.
