History

[edit]
Hotel Astoria

Danubius Hotels Group was established more then 30 years ago by the then Ministry of External Trade in order to create and develop the spa tourism in Hungary. The company, state-owned at those times, started its activity in April 1972 with Grand Hotel Margitsziget and Hotel Helikon in Keszthely which were already in operation then, and with the building permit of Hilton Budapest.

The company developed into public company (Danubius Hotels PLC) on 31 July 1991, and it stocks were introduced a listing in 1992 to the Budapest Stock Exchange. In 1996 it successfully applied for the 85% of property right of Hungária Szálloda Rt. (HungarHotels) at the State Privatization Company’s (ÁPV Rt.) written contest, and it’s 100% property right was gained in 2004.

It started to spread to abroad in November 1999, the first step was the purchase of Hotel Villa Butterfly in Marienbad Czech Republic, one year later it was followed by the 65% property right of Lecebne Lázné a.s. (Marienbad, Czech Republic), due to this 31 properties, 4 spa centers and 40 thermal sources came into it’s own. In 2001 the Romanian Public Limited Company, as interest of Danubius Hotels, gained the 82,17% of 1000 hotel rooms and other properties and medicinal facilities located in Sovata, Romania on a privatization contest. Danubius Hotels acquired its hotels in Slovakia in 2002 with the purchase of 67% of Slovenske Liecebne Kupele a.s. spa complex.

Since the spring of 2004 Danubius became co-owner of operator of the world famous Gundel Restaurant and connecting businesses (Bagolyvár, Wine Public House, Winery in Mád and Eger), and currently it owns two-thirds of Gundel.
