Don’t let the old sign at the entrance: “Fogsor javítás”( Dental treatment) trick you that Fogasház is still the building which was home to a dental practice many years ago.

Housed in a beautifully preserved 19th century palace at Andrássy Avenue, Hello Baby offers metropolitan atmosphere, unique architecture and modish vibe.
