Able to leave suitcases after walking from cruise ship that morning. Room was a good size, quiet and reasonably comfortable. Shower was very powerful and easy to soak room as fitting was loose. Breakfast was extra but quite a reasonable choice from a buffet. Able to get eggs cooked to your liking on request. Overall good value considering location close to Buda Castle.

Beautiful quaint little hotel on the buda side of the Danube excellent for three stars spotless clean with TV coffee free WiFi breakfast including hot food heat and air-conditioning hair dryer and remote control for TV free. 20 mins walk over Elizabeth bridge to the nearest bar and restaurant pointers which is reasonable priced although Budapest in general is very expensive

I can say that my experience at this hotel got off to a bad start because of the pensioner who was at the reception and had an arrogant attitude, and whatever I asked he answered very gruffly and frustrated, which made me regret choosing this hotel! About the accommodation, I can say that the room was clean and had a tiny bathroom! breakfast tasted quite weak! And the icing on the cake was when I checked out, I needed a stamp for a confirmation and I was refused by another retired receptionist with glasses who had a racist attitude. I recommend hiring a qualified staff, not frustrated retirees! there is street parking for 600 huf per hour and a garage for 21 euros per day

Lovely clean hotel with friendly helpful staff, excellent location near all forms of transport, and walking distance to loads of attractions. There is a minibar in the rooms and the food and drink I it are the cheapest I have ever come across. We only had one breakfast at the hotel (mainly because we are lazy and like to sleep in😁)everything was plentiful including hot eggs, bacon and sausage all for a very low price. Overall it was a very pleasant stay here and would definitely visit here again. Oh and the shower pressure was brilliant with loads of hot water.

Our check in person was not super friendly, but not rude at all. We found the elevator fit 2 people at a time with luggage comfortably. The rooms were nice and were clean, and we had no complaints. We were just off the river, and close to several smaller bistros. Breakfast in the morning was nice. We noticed when we were waiting for taxi to our boat tour at night that they were concerned that we were waiting there. It seemed as if they thought we were loitering or making the place look bad. Not exactly sure. When we returned we noticed them shooing away a person who was either overheated/drunk , so maybe this is a problem, but didn't notice it any other time. Location is a plus for this hotel to quite a few of the sites. It is close to catch the hop on/hop off bus also, which we used on our visit to get from one place to the next.…

This hotel is central to pretty much everything and is in a very easy to navigate area. It’s also on a small street a block off the river so it’s a bit quieter. They do offer baggage storage if you arrive too early and your room isn’t ready yet. The rooms are large and comfy. The downsides were that the air conditioning didn’t seem to get very cool and the fridge was pretty warm as well. Know that breakfast beverages cost extra than the breakfast charge itself (even juice)

So the hotel is close to the castle. Very close to the means of public transport. It is clean. The bathroom is ok a bit small but convenient. I would change the carpet on the floors because even though it is cleaned it still gives out a feeling of being long ovedue and dirty.the breakfast is ok for the price you pay.You can have coffee with extra cost.The only thing i would like to see is to have the towels changed at least every second day. Overall for the price we liked it we would recommend it.

Great location just outside the busy tourist area, just round the corner from the river Danube with a lovely riverside view of everything. The Hotel was very clean and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The bed was wide and comfortable. I would happily recommend this hotel to anyone needing a reasonably priced hotel in a central location in Budapest.

I stayed her Monday to Friday over three consecutive weeks and I I would certainly recommend this hotel. While this is not a 5 star luxury hotel, it is a well managed, well priced, good and clean hotel with a retro vibe in an excellent location. *The staff were all friendly, helpful with great customer service. *The rooms were all a good size with comfortable beds. Each room had a TV and my only negative would be that the TV was a bit small but there were plenty of channels to choose from. *The bathroom is also a bit small but had a bath with shower. *I'm glad I included breakfast! There was a good selection of warm and cold food, Hungarian style and international. Coffee and tea are included, but as I need a cappuccino to start my day that was an additional but reasonable cost. I have seen complaints about the cost of breakfast but I thought it was reasonably priced. If you only do a continental breakfast it might be cheaper first go to a local cafe but the closest isn't that cheap and who wants to go hunting first thing in the morning? *The location is great, quiet and close to the Danube with easy walking to the main sights in Buda and either a bus ride to or slightly longer walk across the Elizabeth Bridge to the sights in Pest. As you may gather I really liked this hotel. I would happily recommend this hotel to anyone needing a reasonably priced hotel in a central location in Budapest.…
