We found the hotel to be a budget offering, and nothing like it's own 4* rating.

The hotel is situated 2km from the city centre, and will take 25mins walking to get there. There's a shopping centre and a square with shops and restaurants within 50m of the hotel. A taxi from the airport will cost about £22.

The hotel itself is a bit tatty, and the reception staff seemed put out to have to attend to us. They also covered the bar as well as reception, but I'd compare this to a home bar. The selection of drinks is VERY limited, and again, it seemed like a chore to be served.

Our room had a mini bar with some basic drinks and chocolate bars, and some coffee making facilities. We stayed 4 days, and neither of these were replenished, and although room service did make our beds each day, they didn't do anything else.

Our shower head kept falling off, the heating system was stuck on 'bloody warm' (there was a radiator in the actual shower too!) and the 'fast wifi' was slower than a 14.4k dial up modem. (Yeah, we're old, haha) The free breakfast was adequate, with a decent selection, and had a cooked offering, although don't expect a full English.

In conclusion, if budget is absolutely your overriding factor, then go for it, but, the location, poor service, poor wi-fi and general condition of the hotel means we'd look for somewhere else should we ever return.

Really easygoing hotel. In a great location near the metro/trams and the service was very friendly. The breakfast was especially great, with the efficient and helpful staff keeping all the food topped up and clean the whole duration. We were very impressed! Only thing that could have been better was our room was two single beds put together so was slightly uncomfortable when sleeping as a couple.

Good location right next to a big shopping centre and a strip of restaurants/cafes. Short taxi distance to all major tourist attractions. Staff were very helpful with any queries. The breakfast was buffet style and had a wide selection of ham and cheeses and hot food. The food was replenished quickly and efficiently by staff. Top tip if traveling to Budapest is to use the Bolt taxi app as you can get ripped off by local taxis.

The only slight downside was that the double bed was two single beds pushed together other than that the room was a big size and the shower was a walk in shower. Would stay here again.

Stayed here with a friend and had a twin room.

Electrics failed us twice within 10minutes and we were moved rooms with no fuss.

2nd room was identical to the first (but without the electrics blowing).

Twin beds - comfortable, room was basic but had everything you need. Mini bar should you choose to use it. Tea/ coffee - no decaf coffee or hot chocolate sachets though. For a decaf coffee drinker this was disappointing as most hotels cater for this as standard.

Shower was very good. Good water pressure great temperature. Free soap, body wash/shampoo for those that don't travel with them.

Our 2nd room had a leaking sink - quite a big leak off the waste and we had to use our shower towels to mop it up. 1st morning we asked for extra towels to cater for this. They didn't arrive. 2nd morning we asked again and they did. We reported it and they noted the issue but did advise they couldn't fix it immediately. Not an issue for us but I expect the next people will have the same issue as it wasn't new and there is no way the cleaners couldn't see what was happening when removing the towels/cleaning.

Breakfast was interesting. The breakfast room was clean and tidy. All the reviews here rave about the food. However for us it was the hot food offer was all a bit odd and not hot. Luke warm baked beans and sweetcorn mix or meatballs with an optional tomato pepper and onion mix or potato wedges aren't really our idea of breakfast.

They have breads/cakes/meat and cheese available as well as cereals. I ended up eating cold boiled egg on toast and a waffle with jam on (no chocolate sauce or anything available).

Again no decaf option in the coffee machines in the dining room.

There is a bar but its small and more a convenience than a bar. It's also expensive and seating extends from the reception area. However it does have Power sockets and WiFi so you could use the area as a great working zone.

We bought drinks from the fuel station opposite for half the price and the staff leant us their bottle opener from the bar.

Hotel staff were very good, very friendly, very helpful. Cannot fault them

Location. Great transport links or 40 minute walk to city centre. Full shopping centre and restaurants on its doorstep 2 min walk.

Overall a nice hotel. Good location. Would return but i would try and find somewhere with a different breakfast first.

I've scored a 3 because it would have been "good" but it wasn't an option.

We stayed for a few nights as part of a last minute getaway. The hotel was part of a package we booked. We were very surprised at the quality based on the price they charge for room and breakfast. The room was small but comfortable enough, bathroom again small and a bit awkward to negotiate the shower but again adequate. I found the bed uncomfortable but husband had no issues with it. Personal preference I suppose.
Breakfast was delicious. Lots of choice, good quality ingredients. Plenty of juice and hot drinks. Nice informal dining area.
Location was good, approx 5 min walk to main tram route, Margaret bridge was approx 10 min journey and lots of areas easily accessed from there. Download the BudapestGO app before travelling it simplifies buying tickets. You need to link your passport to it but easily done. You can then either purchase single tickets or day passes as needed.
Reception/bar staff were so helpful and friendly, providing us with lots of information and advice. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

Excellent hotel, 1 metro stop from the center. Friendly good English speaking staff at reception and the boy who worked there even spoke a little Dutch. Room was clean and the air conditioning worked well too. The products in the mini bar are really cheap, between €1 and €2. The room was cleaned every day and fresh towels were provided. The breakfast was excellent, everything was continuously replenished and tables were quickly cleared and cleaned. Next to the reception there is a small bar where you can get hot and cold drinks 24 hours a day. The hotel is located next to the Corvin mall and close to a street with restaurants that is closed to cars. The M3 metro, trams and buses stop just around the corner. The only downside is that it looks a bit old-fashioned. If they would just paint the orange poles white in the lobby, it would look a lot more modern.

This is a nice little hotel, set just outside Budapests center. We arrived early evening and were given a room on the first floor over looking the courtyard. The room was nice and quiet, but as soon as you open the window you can hear the noise from the road. The room was adequate, nice and clean. Beds comfortable, well stocked fridge with tea and coffee. Breakfast in the morning was sufficient for us with Toast, cereal, pastries, fruit,scrambled egg, tea /coffee, fruit juice etc. But if you're looking for a full English then you will be out of luck! Hotel is situated about 100 yards from a square and shopping centre. The square has several restaurants, Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Vietnamese, pizza, burger restaurants. So you can easily find something to eat. It's a good 35 min walk into the city centre, which if you're exploring all day makes for a long walk back. On our second day we discovered the tube station around the corner. Turn right out of the hotel, right again on to the main road and walk 2 mins to the cross roads where you will find the Corvin Negyed station. 3 stops along to Deak will bring you out close to St. STEPHENs Basillica and the Ferris wheel which are pretty central in Budapest. The tube fare was about £1.25 single per person. Tivket machines can be put into english. Far better than walking! Over all the hotel was comfortable for us and we would stay here again.

We stayed here for our 3 night break and thought the hotel was “okay” at best.
When we first arrived on Thursday evening we were greeted by a rather unfriendly employee who barely said hello, gave us our ‘key’ and that was about it. He looked pretty put out to have to deal with us. The rest of the staff throughout our stay were perfectly fine though.
Our room (601) was okay but a few things let it down. The shower head wouldn’t stay in place, always falling to its lowest position. The room was really hot with no obvious means to turn the heat down and it really could’ve done with a usb port socket or two.
The cleaners also didn’t replace the coffee sachets when we used them.
The corridor outside was also really dark and cluttered with stacked chairs.
Breakfast was pretty good and well stocked with most things. Sure there might’ve been the odd unexpected items (broccoli and beetroot) but everything else was the usual continental breakfast affair.
The hotel is quite well situated, only being a 20 minute walk to Liberty Bridge and all the bars a restaurants in that area.
So basically, if you’re looking for a fairly cheap comfortable room, without any thrills, for a short stay in Budapest this place is fine. If you’re looking for a little more from your hotel, you might want to consider an alternative.

A nice, friendly hotel that fulfills its main purpose - an overnight stay. In the price of the hotel, you also get the option of breakfast, which exceeded my expectations and was a high quality.
Don't expect anything extra from the hotel, 4 stars are quite out of line in my opinion, the hotel gave the impression that it didn't care about everything and didn't solve anything.
But the cleaning was perfect, every day a made bed and a perfectly cleaned room await you, maybe they forget to give you towels, but that's a small thing.
I can't fault the hotel, but you definitely can't expect anything more from the hotel than accommodation.

Hotel city Inn is located in the heart of the new Corvin district, a few meters from the statue in honor of our Carlo Pedersoli (Bud Spencer), near a large shopping center and a beautiful street full of shops, clubs and supermarkets. Excellent welcome, overall friendly staff, spacious room with all the comforts, above all super clean, the only flaw was the breakfast, poorly managed, on the weekend they couldn't manage the high flow of people; when some trays ran out, if you arrived late, many things couldn't be found, queues were sometimes too long. The luggage storage service is excellent, in fact they are kept under lock and key in a room near the reception.

We booked via Wowcher , there was a bath opposite the bed which was a bit odd and a separate shower in the room. A separate toilet. There was a sink in the room and we did not pay anything extra for towels/bedsheets etc. Hope this helps
