The hotel is in great location and staff is great. Unfortunately the amenities and facilities could be upgraded! We stayed twice, and in two different rooms ( regular and deluxe) the shower doors were broken and could not be closed completely. The drains are so clogged, that we had to turn off the water every few minutes to prevent overflowing. And the bathroom are not well appointed. There is no flat surface to put anything down! Toiletries, makeup, medicines, you name it - nowhere to place but the floor. Finally, what the hotel calls coffeemaker is simply a kettle and instant coffee packs.

The Sign is on the Door for a Reason

This was a great hotel with a wonderful price for its outstanding location! The only complaint that I have is that the cleaning lady came into my room when I had the “Do Not Disturb” sign on my door. I had a feeling to go back to my hotel to take a break from touring when I walked up & saw her in my room looking at my items & touching my travel bags. She told me she found the sign in the room (which falls & glides on the floor as it happened to me earlier) instead of on the door & I politely asked her to leave as I didn’t need any cleaning service or anything more in my room. I was there during Christmas Market season so everything was walkable from this hotel. The Christmas market was a lot smaller than what I thought it was going to be, but so special because of the location & history of Budapest.

The airport shuttle is convenient connecting from the city center to BUD airport. The cost is reasonable too. The surrounding area has many restaurants and also in the waling distace to the turoist spots. A great place to stay.

Great location for tourists

Location was in the heart of the old town and within a few minutes walk of the bus stop. Room was spacious and bathroom had toiletries provided. Had breakfast on 1 morning which was nice and buffet style with a small cooked selection at a cost of €15pp

It was a great stay. The location was the best, i had no problems during my stay. The room was very nice and clean, the staff was mostly friendly. The only thing i can say is that event though it was off season and the hotel was clearly not fully booked, they didnt let me extend checkout time even for an hour. Sometimes you just have to take initiative to help out a solo traveler whos been there a few days with no problems, no requests…
