Dissabled tourists in Budapest, Hungary

Does Budapest cater somewhat to those individuals who have problems getting about...using a cane when walking? For example, are there ramps at some establishments?
Do most 4 star hotels have elevators...Zara Boutique Hotel? Thank you.

You need to check each hotel but I would be amazed that any 4 - or even 3* - hotel did;t have an elevator. BUT, there are quite a few cobblestone streets/areas and visiting castles etc might be difficult if your footing isn't very secure (some steps that have been worn down in the past several hundred years of use).

Thank you for this info. I have bought some proper walking shoes to contend with their streets/areas while I'm there. I'll need to contact the hotel we're staying out to see if they have an elevator or if they can put us on the 1st floor. Thanks again for responding to my inquiry.

Keep in mind the first floor in Europe is the second floor in North America.
