Having read the reviews of this hotel before making the reservation, we were a little disappointed. We had a lovely time but the hotel fell down in some areas in our opinion. First of all the good points. * The location is absolutely wonderful - in the Buda Hills overlooking Budapest. * The hotel has pleasant gardens and a lovely... more

We had a very pleasant stay. The hotel is a little way out but the bus connection is very straightforward from Moskva Ter and the view across to the city is great. We never waited long for buses. We very much enjoyed breakfast which was included in the room price. The fitness centre with sauna also added to the experience.... more

This was our second stay in the Normafa, which should tell you how pleased we were with it the first time round. As other reviewers have mentioned, this hotel is a bus ride out of town (about 15-25 minutes depending on the direction and time of day), but since a three or five day Budapest travel pass is such good... more

Having read the reviews of hotel Normafa, we were looking forward to our stay and were not disappointed. The pre-booked taxi was waiting for us at the airport and this was the first sign of the service provided by the hotel. The Reception staff, especially Veronique, could not have been more helpful and friendly, patiently answering all our queries, printing... more

We were given the choice of two rooms on our arrival and chose the smaller room on the ground floor with a view over the pool. As the weather was hot it became a little stuffy at night and I was told that if I had mentioned this they would have provided me with a fan - so my fault... more

I would like to recommend this hotel to anyone, who likes to get great value for money. Yes, the hotel is located further from the city centre, but public transport links are so good, that it never bothered us - actually it is pleasant 20-30 minute trip by bus. Breakfast are truly delicious - you can order many additional foods... more

While I had heard it was outside the city center, I didn't expect to have to take a train and a bus for 30-40 minutes to get there. The room was supposedly a "suite" but barely had any extra space, a view of the parking lot, a toilet which broke on the first use and a showerhead which completely drenched... more

We've stayed here with a group of friends for two years running after camping for a week at a Hungarian festival. It's the perfect hilltop place to relax away from the city centre, surrounded by local woods with stunning views of the city, and lovely grounds and outdoor pool. All rooms are clean and comfortable, though the suites with balcony... more

We were initially concerned that the hotel wasn't right in the city; however, public transportation made it a breeze to get to. The bus stop is right outside the hotel and gets you into the city in 10 minutes. At the end of a long sightseeing day, it was actually quite nice to leave downtown Buda and escape back to... more
