Angol Királynő Szálló, Historical hotel building in central Budapest, Hungary
The Angol Királynő Szálló featured red marble stairs, gilded wooden railings, and a columned facade facing the Danube River in Budapest.
Architect József Hild reconstructed the building between 1850 and 1851 after its destruction during the siege of Budapest's castle in 1849.
The hotel housed prominent politician Deák Ferenc for 15 years, with his furniture later transferred to the National Museum of Hungary.
The structure served multiple functions throughout its existence, transitioning from a café to a hotel before its demolition in 1940.
The hotel's first-floor salon displayed early examples of Thonet chairs and contained mahogany panels with white-gilded ceilings supported by columns.
