Long weekend in Budapest
Am shortly going to Budapest - should I take the Hungarian Forint or, as the Post Office recommends, US Dollars?
Thanks

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Spent five days there last month, and got excellent rate of exchange, Forints for sterling, at the hotel, also good rate when we used credit card for meals/purchases etc. Nearly everywhere accepted Visa/Mastercharge, and also the ATMs took switch (and had English screens).
As an aside, the public transport system is the best I have ever come across - but buy a book of tickets or a pass. Makes life much easier.
