Great find

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and housekeeping kept us stocked up with toilet paper and shower gel. The selection at breakfast was excellent. My only criticisms are that while there was tea and coffee facilities in the room there was no milk with it. Also my preference is for firmer pillows than they provided.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel was adequate for a three day stay, but needs improvements. The furnishings are dated and the beds are hard and very uncomfortable. The free breakfast was so terrible that we ate it only the first morning and then opted to pay for breakfast at restaurants for the other days. There was little choice for the breakfast and once food options ran out before the end of breakfast, we were told there was no more for the day. The location is great, however, as we wanted to be close to the Buda castle. We enjoyed the walks and transportation is close and easy to use.

Convenient, clean and good price

The location was very convenient. Breakfast was really nice. Quite a number of choices. Staff spoke English well. Room was clean and had everything we needed. The bathtub had very high sides and not great if you have trouble stepping up high. There was a lift (elevator) to avoid stairs.

The staff were so helpful. My room was OK, I thought from the photo that it would be better but it was all right. The bathroom was miniscule. I asked to be moved and thankfully they helped me and I had a free-standing shower instead of one over the bath.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I spent 8 nights here, and was completely satisfied. The staff is very friendly, breakfast for a small fee was very good, quick walk to the trains or across the river for shopping and dining, and a small fitness room upstairs was adequate for my stay. Parking in the pay lot across the road was a little expensive, but that really has nothing to do with the hotel. I rented a car for the entire trip, but it was completely unnecessary as it is so easy to get around without a car. Budapest is a very long way from home, but if I ever do go back I would definitely stay here again.
