Budapest sits between the longer Kraków arrival and the onward trip to Brașov. Read the exact overnight departure, comfort category and arrival date before choosing accommodation; a sleeper journey crosses the calendar day. Use separate days for Buda, an operating thermal bath and Pest. Gellért is closed for renovation, while Széchenyi has different weekday and peak prices. Leave time to buy food and organise bags before the Romanian leg.
