I've been to Hamburg 3 times - twice for a stag and once for a wedding. It's the biggest sh*t hole I was ever in - I had a good time but some of things I saw were bizzarre. Some skin head oul one boobs hanging out having a piss on the footpath at 2 in the day. Went into one of those peep shows at 1 in the day where you paid 50 cent in and some tramp standing on a wooden box dancing looking for here hole for about 20 euro. Absolute cretin of yolk. It was both funny and surreal to honest. |

The Reeperbahn is a mental spot alright. Rest of the town is nice enough though.

Budapest is a great town but you do need to do your research before you go. As people have mentioned there's no obvious central point. Along the river is good fun but from memory the bars and boat clubs were not stag friendly. I guess it depends on the group.
The student district is in my opinion the best area to head to if you want good underground bars (or "ruin" bars) and sound locals. These were ex-communist drinking holes back in the day and it's when the younger student type will be found. You'll get no hassle here.
If you want to spend a weekend in an irish pub (as some will sadly do) then you wont have to look far! Edited by londonirish - 09 Jul 2013 at 3:36pm |

If you do get to Budapest make sure to check out the Borozo's, they are cellar bars that sell wine by the half litre for buttons and your sure to meet some of the local "characters". Usually found on a street corner and easy spotted by a lantern with a picture of a bunch of grapes on it. Oh and dont mind the purple bearded old lads knocking about outside.
The Gellart has excellent sauna/baths........and if your interested in history you should check out the museum of terror located in the former HQ of the communist secret police, quiet an eerie place....

Let me know what its like, the one I seen wasnt the Retox, see the http://www.hostelworld.com/hosteldetails.php/Grandio-Party-Hostel/Budapest/42307?dateFrom=11+Apr+2014&dateTo=13+Apr+2014&sc_sau=avdc&sc_pos=1 From the sounds of it this will be the best option as I have done Hamburg and Poland so somewhere new is good for me and the bro wont care once he is drunk. |

Well lads, doing a bit of research into this myself.
Munich was the 1 that has jumped to the top of the queue in my mind for no particular reason other than I love Germany, brilliant place IMO. Did kev report back on Budapest? The advatage of Munich for me is it's easier to get to from shannon for us. Wed be going in the summertime so weather would be good aswell. Anybody with stories to tell good or bad? Or other suggestions? It's early days in the planning. Is it seedy like hamburg and Frankfurt are? I'd prefer if they weren't if I'm honest! The drink will be the attraction. |

Went a few years ago to the Oktoberfest so spent most of the time there.
Lovely city though. The beerhalls are class. No, not a seedy vibe like Hamburg. Very different.
