The Budapest Hotel is in the very center of Moscow, within comfortable walking distance of Red Square, the Moscow Kremlin, and the Bolshoi Theater (which is less than five minutes' walk away).
Among the less famous sights of interest in the area, at the northern end of Ulitsa Petrovka (also about five minutes' walk from the hotel) are the idiosyncratic Moscow Museum of Modern Art, which has a fine collection of Russian avant garde art from the 1910s and 1920s, and on the other side of the street the Verkhopetrovskiy Monastery, one of Moscow's oldest, which has survived almost unaltered since the 17th century, although it is not in the best condition.
Also close to the hotel are the small but moving Museum of GULAG History, and the Sandunovsky Baths, Moscow's oldest and most luxurious public bathhouse, which is worth visiting for its stunning interiors alone.
