“A city break in Feb 2013 with a perfect located hotel!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 11, 2013

Firstly, this was a city break for a nice get away from the working world for a few days. Once of the plane the transfer was great (£20 for a taxi) to the hotel. Once arrived at the hotel the hotel looked pretty spectacular from inside. Real modern which was nice to break it up from the old style design that Budapest had to offer. Room standard i would say was ok, nothing special. But nothing to majorly complain about. The room service was very poor and so was the cleaning. We returned to our room after a few trips out and about, and the room was left the same way which we left it. But i am putting this down to out of season. I would recommend the breakfast because it saved us requiring lunch and the quality of the breakfast was second to none. Excellent! Overall the hotel proved perfect for us, the location was great, the hospitality was great, and we never had to get a taxi any where because it was so convenient for all things we had to do. The city is great, the food was great, and you must try the spa in Pest! Overall a very nice, romantic city break!

Room Tip: The higher up the better!

“Very nice hotel - but watch your valuable things...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed March 10, 2013

Nice hotel with a very good location in Budapest, overlooking the river and with an excellent view. Stayed there for a conference and all service was good and fast, rooms well-equiped. food truly great.
One sad thing happened though, which should make you a bit careful: a necklace disappeared from my room, my favorite one I wear when I am traveling for work to remind me about my family at home... Staff acted very professionally, helped me with the police report and everything, but yet, someone with access to the room must be the guilty one...

“Great Hotel on a top location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 10, 2013

This hotel has a very good price performance. Location on the side of the Donau river. Rooms with Donau view are great but also other rooms are very nice.
The rooms are nicely decorated and modern. Beds are very comfortable. Staff is very professional and friendly and try to make your stay comfortable. Breakfast is super

“Nearly faultless”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 8, 2013

A short review given that I went almost a year ago and can't remember the finer details but what has stuck with me is the following: as a person who values the cleanliness and service of a hotel, Sofitel did not put a foot wrong. Fantastic prices and fantastic breakfast too.

“Best central hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 8, 2013

We have just returned from a 4 night stay in Budapest. We choose the Sofitel beacuse of its central location and wow it was in walking distance of everything and if not walking then the underground was a 1 min walk to take you to those places that were further away.
The hotel is amazing 5 stars at its best. Breakfast WOW everything you could ever imagine to eat was there for your choosing.
I believe the staff at this hotel makes it what it is I think it should be the staff that get the 5 stars as without them a hotel is just a box. So big congrats to you all.
The hotel standard rooms where a little boring, old fashioned and didn't match up to the rest of the hotel which was very contemporary.
A big shout out to Xenia on the concierge desk Thank you so much for the champagne you gave us for my friends birthday we enjoyed it after a very busy day in Buda.
We ate in the Paris Restaurant and our meal was lovely.
On a whole we love the city we love the hotel and we will be back !!!
Thank you all
