Tickets are good value at Ft4500 (about £9) to include the dome and treasury. Allow plenty of time to see everything, particularly if you are climbing the stairs (as opposed to the lift) to the Dome. Some amazing stuff to see including the relic of St. Stephen's hand.

Beautiful building. Stunning artwork inside. Unfortunately some of it was cordened off for visitors so didn't get the full experinece. Cost of entrance is split into different areas so can go all in or keep it simple by going to church bit only.

The Basilica is in the centre of Pest and is a tourist attraction dedicated to King Saint Stephen founder of the Hungarian state. Built around 1851 and completed in 1916 - the dome and building was damaged in WW2 . The site has been used for numerous coronations and royal weddings in the past . The ticket cost around £9!and allows you to visit the church , treasury as well as the dome. The wife isn’t that keen on numerous steps and was pleased there is a lift that takes you to the viewing point on the dome. When we visited there was a service taking place for schoolchildren - and you could visualise the splendour if the building. On the right hand side is the mummified fist of King Stephen .

St. Stephen’s Basilica’s dome and twin spires draws one to it. Once inside, its splendor captivates you. The small additional charge to access the tower is worth the price as the views are great.

For me it was worth the combined ticket to visit the church, the treasury and the viewing level which is high up on the building. After visiting the church, which is beautifully decorated, the choice is whether to take the lift or walk up the stairs for the treasury and the views. The lift is small, so there may be a queue, so I chose the stairs, but that’s only recommended if you’re fit and healthy. The treasury is quite small, and it’s near the top, it displays items such as decorative robes. There is a large landing type area before the second stage lift to the top, which just takes 4 people, or the stairs which are quite narrow. Reaching the viewing area is very worthwhile. Budapest is a low rise city, and the church is maybe the tallest building on the Pest side, so you have great 360 degree views, including the Buda Castle complex. Well worth the effort to get to the top.

A stunning monument in the middle of town, this has great architecture on the outside but inside is even better and more impressive. The other very great part of this one, is the ability to climb up to the bas of the done and go outside onto the terrace to see the city views. Fantastic all around.

While a relatively new church (120 years) it celebrates the cities Christian heritage and is a center of Catholicism in Hungary. There is a charge to visit (ticket office across the street) but get the full pass which gets you into the church proper and also includes the panoramic view from the doom outside and the treasurary which mostly celebrates the life of Cardinal Mindszenty, a giant of a prelate who.stood up to both Nazis and communism. Worth the visit

Majestic church in the heart of Budapest, a must visit when in the city. The view from the top of the church was mind blowing and the best part was that you can either take the elevator up or the stairs. Going towards end of the day is the best as it’s less crowded.

The entry fee is worthwhile paying to have a walk around this impressive building. There are information boards in a variety of languages to explain what you are looking at. It is worth paying the extra to go to the viewing balcony which provides views across Budapest.

Absolutely fantastic building full of history and amazing architecture. Blown away by the size of it inside. Wife found it peaceful and calm as it was a must do on her list. Students inside drawing some were very good! Xmas markets just setting up but on the opening day gave a good feel around the front of building. Defo must visit!
