club: Royal Palace Night Club
posted by meister
"As I had read only good things here about Royal Palace, I and two of my colleagues decided not to omit this place in any way while we were staying Budapest in September. There is printable coupon on their website, and written that it is worth 50€. We were quite sceptical about this, however, on a nothing ventured, nothing gained basis we printed it. We called the number on the coupon from the hotel, and asked them to give us a lift as it was written that the bonus was only valid if we were taken to the club by their taxi service. We only understood later what the point about this was. The situation is that the taxi drivers’ mafia in Budapest takes naïve tourists to the worst places where they are deceived – and naturally taxi drivers get their shares from this. So they sent their own car and I can guarantee that everything happened as it was written in advance. The taxi and the admission were free, and the coupon was enough for quite a few drinks. I asked the manager how it was worth for them in this way. He answered this way they usually have a full house, and they are the most frequented club in Budapest, and if guests are provided with high quality service, furthermore given a bit of pocket money by the club, they will stay and spend money with pleasure. The same happened to me, I felt really good, and spent many times more than the received 50 € until morning, however, I can assure everyone that it was worth:)"

"I had been planning to go to Budapest for long, and at last I and my friends managed to organize a long weekend this autumn. My friends had already been there for a few times, and informed me about which clubs are worth visiting, and which should be avoided. I also experienced what is mentioned here, i.e. the taxi driver of the hotel wanted to take us to a place that was different from what we originally asked. My friends’ exclusive recommendation was Royal Palace, and they suggested that I should not try any other places. Now that I am writing these lines, I also recommend this to everyone reading this. I received an extremely friendly and professional catering. The girls were very nice, they spoke English, and provided me with everything I asked for. The prices were also fair, practically I spent only half of what I would have spent in a similar club of any Western European city. All in all, the experience is unforgettable, and I am absolutely sure that I am visiting this pleasant club next year again."

"Last week i was in budapest on holiday. I met with nice hungarian friends and they took me to a great party near by the danube called club studio. I enjoyed it very much! The day after they showed us the nightlife of budapest, so we went to some clubs around the city. The first two i didn’t like too much…one of them was the madame pompadour in the city center, the second i don’t remember, but was also close to it. After they took me to the other part of budapest to the royal palace. This is a very comfortable and friendly place with solid prices and with a lot of showgirls working. What was very special for me is the restaurant part, the meal was perfect ! So, i was realy satisfied with the hungarian hospitality:) "

"It is from a reliable source that hotels have started to take the concerted activity of taxi drivers and certain clubs against their guests seriously, and several taxi drivers working for hotels have already been fired. The problem is that the above places and the taxi drivers’ mafia have made the nightlife of Budapest disreputable, and the once flourishing nightlife of Budapest is merely a shadow of what it was formerly. The authority as well as the police started to deal with the above corrupt people after several years of delay. Now it is true that clubs are closed after one another, however, I think it is a bit too late. The truth is that the issue has been dealt in the wrong way. The real problem is the corrupt taxi drivers’ mafia. If the above phenomenon disappeared from the nightlife of Budapest, the bars founded on it would also disappear for ever. In my opinion the police, companies rendering taxi service, hotels, as well as consumer protection should form a united front in order to prevent the above persons from damaging a great number of businesses based on tourism. Because the above phenomenon affects the whole sector. Bad news travels fast, and it can only be stopped by more good news. Unfortunately, poor cheated tourists have spoken ill of Hungary for years (which is justified). The greatest losers thereof are those trying to get on in an honest way. Those working in catering who would never think of causing financial damage to anyone. The main point is that something good has already started and the nightlife of Budapest is starting to purify, which is also promoted by forums like this. I wish further success in the above process!"

Budapest VII. district. Dohány street, Szovetseg corner
Positive features
-
Negative features
There is a new night club in Budapest, in the Pest side, from the most dangerous kind. Position: close to the center, in one of Budapest's not too popular, sleazy district, in the Dohány street.
So far, all of the feedbacks are negative, so according to the Budapest-Sexguide.com the place is specifically on blacklist, it has a 'not suggested' rating.
Our short justification: The club builds upon only the guests delivered by the taxi maffia. It pays more than 120 euros after every single guest! Of course, they get this money from the lesion of the guests. An obvious sign of this is the100 euros amount of money which has to be payed by the guests for the first drink, but the guests are noways informed about it, it is just involved in the final invoice additionally. Over-invoicing is also typical, and a girl drink (consum drink) is also has to be payed, which was not ordered by the guest. They often invoice an amount of 2000 euros within half an hour!!!
Finally here comes a typical quotation from the manager of the club, which – according to us – makes this outrageous approach of the club absolutely clear and which approach we fight against: "We should not forget that we primarily live from the taxi colleagues, and not from the guests."

Having read Traveler Asia’s comments, they practically seem to describe what happened to us at the beginning of September. We also stayed in Hotel Kempinsky, and we were taken to a similar club by the local taxi-mafia as well, however, it was called Merci Club. I am warning everyone to avoid that place as well, because if they do not, they will pay a lot. It is a basic rule in Budapest that you should not visit the places offered by taxi drivers in any way, because it will end like above. Fair clubs do not work together with corrupt taxi drivers simply because that they cannot pay the “commission” that for example Merci or Sincity pays without causing financial damage to their guests. I simply cannot understand how the police or the local authority can let such places function, and how the reputable Kempinsky can employ taxi drivers who cause financial damage to the guests of the hotel????

I heard that the Merci Club will close soon as well by the same problems. There are a lot of scams in this club.
