“Another great stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 8, 2013

I have just spent 5 nights in this fantastic hotel (this is my third visit). It's located in a very quiet area, but not far from the Moscow square, The room was spacious, very clean and with heated bathroom floor, which it is much appreciated with the cold weather.

All the staff members I met, were extremely helpful and nice. Ildiko from Housekeeping helped me with my safe box and was fast to honour any of my requirements.

There is also a great restaurant in the hotel, I don't remember the name, which I spent a lot of time working on my laptop. The food is fantastic and once again the service was superb.

I will definitely come back on my next visit to Budapest.

Room Tip: 408 is really quiet, at the end of the corridor.

“Hotel Castle Garden”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 1, 2013

We stayed in the Castle Garden from 26/30-Jan-13. I am more than happy to recommend the hotel to anyone travelling to Budapest. Enough is said in other reviews about the location, the rooms, public transport etc and I would echo everything that they say. But it was the staff who were willing to go the extra mile when my wife and I decided to walk back from Pest (on our first night) but avoided going up to the castle. Trying to read a poor map at 2300 hrs under poor street lights is not the easiest thing to do. Cue a phone call to the receptionist on duty (Dora) whose English was faultless and the taxi found us 5 minutes later! We had a great time in a great city and that was in no small way due to the hotel.

The location is wonderful. You are about 300 m from the entrance to Castle Hill. From here you can see everything especially the awesome views of the Danube. I would recommend the Hospital in the Rock as a place that you must see. The only pity about it being that they do not allow you to take photographs inside. From Castle Hill you can get anywhere in the city using public transport, taxi, hop-on, hop-off bus (I recommend the Red Line) or simply enjoy the castle area.

We enjoyed everything about this trip - even the sub-zero temperatures - and intend to return at some point in the near future. We will stay in the Castle Garden.

“Good value quality hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 28, 2013

Stayed here for a few days in January having stayed briefly once before in October. This is a very civilised place to stay, located close to the castle district and with good public transport to the rest of the city via Moskva Ter which is 10 mins walk or a short ride on the 16 bus. Room was spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. The hotel staff are friendly and professional. The breakfast is very nice and the complimentary tea and coffee in the reception during the day is a nice touch.The price was very good for the quality. Overall I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Budapest.

“Budapest”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

We had three rooms at Hotel Castle Garden and found it to be delightful. Near metro and exploring on the Buda side. We had parents, three married daughters and one son in law. We would stay here again and would recommend this hotel to others

Staff helpful and congenial

Just remember that money exchanges are harder to figure in forinth.

“Castle Garden...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013

Loved this hotel, staff were very welcoming and was so clean and tidy and the restaurant where we had breakfast was so quirky and spacious. The hotel was very high up so we had to get taxis to the sight seeing places, but those were very cheap and the hotel did fixed prices with a set taxi firm, loved the space in the room, the fact it had a bath and the bed was very comfortable. I would defiantly recommend this hotel and stay here again if i ever went back to Budapest.
