What about Budapest? Never been, but the W just opened, and the other options seem to be well-reviewed?
I appreciate your concern for my supply of macarons! Budapest is great but we just spent 4 wonderful nights there on a recent trip, so it made my "not" list:

The club lounge puts out a great spread and both breakfast and dinner. The Tivoli is a tourist spot but has been going strong for so long because it really is charming and fun. That and a boat tour of the city and a day spent just walking around taking in the sights would easily fill three days. I can recommend some fabulous restaurants if you end going there and want to glam it up a bit.
Will take a look, thanks! I will update the thread as I make decisions.
