From Budapest to Miskolc
Airport Mini-bus
Before leaving for Hungary, you shall start organising your trip from Budapest to Miskolc as well. There are mini-buses which transport passangers from the airport directly to their destinations - in your case to UNI-Hotel in Miskolc. Please visit AGORATRANS website and make a reservation prior to your arrival. The company shall send you an English language SMS 24 hours prior to your pick up time when and where exactly you will be picked up at the Airport. It is a safe and comfortable way of getting to Miskolc for approx. 25 EUR (single ticket). Payment is possible in cash (EUR) to the driver.
Flixbus is another option, it offers bus routes in Hungary and neighbouring countries.
By train
Another option to travel from Budapest to Miskolc is to travel by train. Take a taxi or an Airport Minibus ( costs approx. 10 EUR) to get to Keleti Pályaudvar (Eastern Railway Station). Choose a replacement bus to Hatvan (because of current reconstruction works, there are no trains between Budapest and Hatvan.) From Hatvan you can travel to Miskolc by train.
You can find the IC timetable and can also buy tickets online at the following web site: http://www.elvira.hu/english. A 2nd class ticket with seat reservation costs approx. EUR 20. You are advised to take an IC train instead of a regular train because ICs are much faster and more comfortable than regular ones.
From Tiszai Railway Station to the University
By taxi
Once you arrived in Miskolc at Tiszai Railway Station, you shall take a taxi to get to the University. It costs approximately 10 EUR.
By public transport
Numbered buses run in all directions across the city, and even beyond the city borders. Another means of transport is the tram (No. 1 and 2), running along the East-West axis of the town.
