The rooms are vile (communist chic is being kind). The staff are rude, but do speak excellent English. The breakfast is awful. The two saving graces for this hotel are (i) the famous spa and (ii) location of the hotel which is very close to the city centre. Bring your own flip flops to the spa - the hotel charges... more

The hotel is located at the foot of the Gellert hill, on the banks of the Danube in city center. It has a great atmosphere and friendly staff. It also has one of the oldest baths in Hungary. The hotel is listed in the book of 1001 things you must visit before you die. I suggest an internet reservation to... more

I have stayed at the Danubius Hotel Gellert a couple of times. The exterior and common areas have a real charm and a lot of money has recently been spent in returning the exterior to its old splendour. Its a pity though that they hadn't thought to spend some money on renovating the rooms. I stayed in a single room... more

This is a wonderful old hotel, opened in 1918 and full of original Art Nouveau character. Our room was comfortable and clean, with a tiny balcony overlooking the river and, bizzarely, with steps up to a mezzanine inside the room to reach one of the beds. The famous hotel baths are free to use for residents, so this is a... more

We stayed here for 4 nights, front desk staff was very helpful, rooms were OK, nothing special, good location on a trolley line. The fact that the baths were included was a plus. Would recommend it but warn people that it is not a new hotel more

Stayed here for 4 nights in a standard double room which said had a patio view. We were expecting this to be out back somewhere but to our delight tuns out to be at the front overlooking the river Danube, fantastic!. Standing on the balcony of our room that night after a meal in the brasserie (meal reasonably priced, but... more

We got a non-renovated room without air conditioning. I wouldn't recommend THAT. Make sure you get an air conditioned room. Nevertheless, we had a great time. The access to the baths is weird, but once you get used to it it's really fun. The baths themselves are fun. There's a wave pool with serious waves. (Like it scares people!) and... more

Beautiful old hotel and Spa, joy to the eyes. Our room (315) was spacious and nice, must be recently decorated. Good location too. BUT: There is WIFI in the rooms but very expensive, 23 Euros per day. That was not told at the site of the hotel. I brought my laptop and did not use it for Internet. At least... more

The view is fine. The rooms are clean. The food it good. The internet charges are outrageous. Don't throw away your spa card as they will surprise you with a charge when you check out. Paint is peeling, carpets are worn, the business center has inconvenient hours. This is NOT a 4 star hotel any longer. Has seen far better... more
