Corinthia Hotel, Budapest

Budapest, Erzsébet krt. 43-49, 1073, Hungary (show on map)

Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“The Corinthia first opened as the luxurious Grand Royal Hotel in time for the Magyar Millennium in 1896, and, despite being destroyed during Hungary’s 1956 revolution, it’s just as luxurious today.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Budapest.

Forbes review:

“Set on the Grand Boulevard at the pulsing heart of the Hungarian capital, Corinthia Budapest blends the old and the new flawlessly. The original Neoclassical façade left over the historic 19th-century hotel merges nicely with the renovated rooms, suites and halls.”

CNN review:

“When the Corinthia first opened on busy Erzsébet boulevard in 1896 it was the city’s most luxurious hotel, favored by celebrities and royalty. It has been beautifully restored, and its 414 rooms (with marble bathrooms) are a welcome refuge after a day of exploring.”

Frommers review:

“The impeccable Corinthia embodies true Old World opulence. There are inner courtyards with natural light streaming in from glass and wrought-iron ceilings, creating an impression of infinite space.”

Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Budapest.

Telegraph review:

“The Corinthia carries itself with an effortless grace that no other five-star in Budapest quite matches. Its wide spaces, light marble colouring and glass-covered atriums give a lovely airy feel to the public spaces, and there’s nothing frilly or overly fussy in the design.”

A Palace stay in the heart of the city.

I grand hotel with beautiful architecture of a time passed. The spa option was very good, they have several hot tubs, sauna's and a steam room. This along with a very nice pool made visiting the spa a daily ritual.

The bathroom could have been cleaner. It was nice to have a bathtub and shower and they provided nice toiletries,

Excellent Hotel/Staff/Facilities

Spa,Staff and ambiance. Restaurant was good.

Room was at front of Hotel and overlooked a main arterial boulevard ; was considerable traffic noise . Hot food at breakfast was lukewarm at best ( though breakfast in general was good) Breakfast service was busy and sometimes staff were overstretched Is a little bit out of the centre so if you want to walk a lot it is ideal.

Fabulous

Me and my girlfriend visited Budapest for her 40th birthday and couldn't be happier with the hotel. The staff was amazing no matter what their job was, from the reception desk, to the inhouse restaurant(s), breakfast station (the breakfast here is excellent), room service and so on. The spa section was wonderful as well. Pool is large enough to do laps in and a selection of different saunas to enjoy. We also opted to get a massage each and it was heaven. A special thank you to the girl in the reception who found a room early when we arrived before check-in and just wanted to use the luggage room, and to the hotel manager for the wonderful birthday present that was waiting in the room when we got back from a long day exploring the city. We have already said we will return to Budapest to see more of the city, and when we do we will definitely stay at Corinthia again.

Fantastic hotel with wonderful staff in a great location! Definitely recommend!

Our stay was one of my favourite trips, the staff couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful and the hotel was beautiful and in a great location. We were celebrating my husband’s 60th birthday and the staff upgraded our room and arranged a little cake and champagne to be delivered to our room while we were having dinner. The breakfast and dinner in the restaurant were totally delicious.

Nothing, it was all wonderful.

I really enjoyed my stay! The location was perfect, and the hospitality made me feel very welcome. The hotel has a lovely charm, and the bed was exceptionally comfortable.

Everything was lovely, though the room could use better ventilation, it felt a bit stuffy without fresh air.

Budapests Best.

Had a fabulous few days in this hotel . Excellent facilities including a lovely spa,pool, sauna, steam room, all spotlessly clean. The hotel is very comfortable and worth it's 5 stars . The breakfast is truly exceptional with everything you could desire including champagne 🍾 . The location is very central and all attractions can be walked in a half hours brisk walk. The staff were excellent without exception .

I had an issue with my room being too hot( in October) but it was sorted without any fuss or delay.

Incredible hotel in a great location. Would definitely stay again

The help from the staff was lovely (carrying bags, holding doors etc). It was in a great location. 10 mins to New York Cafe and 20mins to parliament, St Stephen’s basilica etc. The room was lovely and spacious and the shower pressure was great. Caviar and Bull attached to the hotel was one of the best restaurants I’ve eaten in.

The bed was very soft and the pillows were incredibly thin. They were feather pillows so could fold them easily but they were thin.

Highly recommended - fabulous hotel and staff

We booked 2 family rooms. Each had 2 bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and lounge area. All furnished nicely and very comfortable beds. The hotel reception is beautiful and the staff are excellent. Nothing was too much trouble. They are all very helpful. The spa is very nice. The restaurant is lovely, food fabulous. Nice atmosphere and live music playing whilst you dine. The restaurant staff are great.

The only thing I can say about the whole stay is our room wasn't very warm and the water in the spa swimming pool wasn't very warm too. Otherwise I have nothing negative about our stay at all!

Top class hotel and customer service

Could not fault this hotel. Facilities are perfect. Location, decor, comfort all top class. There was a mistake made with our booking and we were up graded to an executive suite. It is the nicest suite we have ever stayed in. Exceptional. The spa area is gorgeous, with a large, immaculately clean pool. Great for people who like a proper swim. Two jacuzzi’s, steam and sauna rooms. All in a fabulous setting. The staff in The Corinthia couldn’t be more helpful. My husband had a health issue and the manager was so kind, considerate and attentive. Sent up commentary food and drink to help him recover. Also arranged a Dr. Just what you need when you are far from home. This hotel is so well run with great attention to detail and an underlying feeling of kindness and care to their guests. Throughly recommend the Corinthia.

Very good

Breakfast was great. A big variety to satisfy everyone. Service and quality excellent.

The air conditioning was not working. The staff explained that their system works either on heating or on a/c. (Not both) They further explained that this is now winter (Oct 19-20th) and therefore the heating is on but not the A/C. This was very upsetting since the room was extremely hot and it was difficult to breath. I do have to mention that they did find a satisfying solution by moving us to their separate apartments in a separate building right behind the hotel. This property had a/c and we were able to sleep properly. Kudos to them on that point.

Good stay but ruined by no heating

Very clean, very good staff willing to help and very close to many amenities. Very good food

On arrival it very cold which needed heating. Staff advised that the heating will only be switch on later in winter but this was winter. I felt really cold to the extend of catching a cold which ruined my holiday. Staff provided additional blankets and the heating was only switched on after 3 days into the holiday. Area that needs improvements

Right place to stay to explore downtown Budapest attractions

Very clean and comfortable rooms. Rich breakfast with great variety of food, Hungarian and Mediterranean specialities. Kind and attentive waiters. The hotel itself looks like a real palace and visitors take great pictures on the main staircase.

Parking is a challenge to find. Its on the backstreet, not in the main building. And 23-25 Euro/night depending on exchange rate is a bit too much
