Nightlife Spot: Kerts and Romkocsmas
The two words to know for Budapest are kerts ("gardens") and romkocsma ("ruin-pubs"). Do a search for "Budapest kert" and you'll get a bevy of articles written about most of the best places. However, some of the newest ones you'll have to ask around.
Corvinteto (corvinteto.com) is great as it is on the roof of an old department store. Szimpla (szimpla.hu) is the "original kert." Piaf Klub is a really interesting and maybe a bit scary bunch of clientele in the early hours of the morn when everywhere else is closed. (piafklub.hu)
A38 ship is a cool venue (a38.hu) on the Buda side. Zold Pardon (zp.hu) is a beer garden and music venue at night frequented by students of the nearby uni.
There's also a 24 party club scene going on Hajogyari Island in III which you may be interested in. Do a search for "hajogyari sziget" or "hajogyari island" for more articles and info.
Check out the decent recs on these pages for things I missed:
