They don't get along too well, so that's why they consider themselves the only one. I once asked them when there is minyanim in the morning, and they said that therey're only one when in fact Chabad also has.

I don't want to take sides, they both have some points and seem ridiculous at the same time. Just for the record, there's also a minyan at Visegrádi Street Synagogue with younger crowd and a nice rabbi who learnt with R. Lichtenstein and with both R. Soloveitschiks.

Hanna is great. You can also eat at Carmel. http://www.carmel.hu/en

There is a sign on the wall when you enter the courtyard to Hanna that claims that Hanna is the only orthodox restaurant. It's misleading to say at least. They probably meant to say that Hanna is the only one under the supervision of the "official" orthodox kehillah. Chabad gives out its own hechsher and has a few shuls in the city.

As far as I've heard Carmel is not to be relied upon..

+100, he was a star student at Puppa in Williamsburg where he grew up, became Chabad, got smicha in 770, returned to Hungary as a shaliach. A very learned and nice fellow; he is well respected by most. Member of RCE. Questioning his kashrus is preposterous.
With all this said, I am not promoting Carmel, merely bringing it up as an available option.

I know this is in response to a post from 2 months ago...

10 years ago Carmel was not kosher. It has a sign the said in hebrew that it was not kosher. The location is the same so people who havent been there in a while are a bit confused. R' Oberlander is a very reliable person in all aspects. Had the opportunity to travel with him many times.

Queens Court hotel. Let them know at time of booking.
Rabbi Oberlander of Chabad has some rentals as well.

Why would i need to let them know at the time of booking? Not all rooms have keys?

How are the apartments? Are you referring to chabad apartments?
