A very central location.
Although many rooms were filled, the room was well insulated from noise. Hotel guests were respectful. The hotel is in a very central location, close to transport and easy access to attractions. The hotel provided a continental breakfast with a variety of choices. The hotel staff were very professional and friendly.
No complaints

Ideal hotel for a short stay in the city centre
It has a 24-hour reception desk so is convenient for late-arriving flights. The hotel is a short walk from Deák Ferenc Square where the 100E airport bus terminates.

Despite the central location the hotel is on a quiet street and the room was excellent. Good breakfast. Easy access to public transport. Good restaurants very close.
The foyer is shared with an up-market dental practice.

good price/quality balance
Very calm even with air conditioner operating.
Smoke detector above the bed blinks every 5 seconds, very annoying when all lights are off and you are on the bed with eyes open. When air conditioner was turned off, there was a little bad smell coming from the ventilation opening.

Excellent, would thoroughly recommend
Had a superior double room. Very spacious, very comfortable, huge comfortable bed. Spotlessly clean as was the ensuite bathroom which had a drench shower head in the cubicle as well as an ordinary one.
There was plenty on offer at breakfast and it was regularly replenished. Although one criticism would be the hot food on offer (eggs, sausages, beans etc, could have been kept a little warmer.

Perfect location, great hotel, value for money
Great location, walking distance to everything. Very nice, clean and modern hotel as well as room. The room was spacious, and the bed was kingsize. Nice staff in the reception. Can definitely recommend the hotel!
Breakfast was very plain - I wouldn't pay extra for this, but instead go out and have breakfast in a café. The bed was a bit too hard for me - but obviously, this is a very individual matter.

I got an excellent room. It was a nice bonus to find two little chocolates as a welcome treat, and the tea and coffee were always replenished. Everything was clean, quiet, and comfortable. I will definitely come back! :)
No downsides, it was great.

The staff was excellent. All of the young ladies. The location is excellent close to everything. The housekeepers are very professional.
No fridge. I wish they could have a mini fridge for people that stay for more than 4 days.

Wasn't too happy with the room allocation but wasn't too big a problem, however when telling the receptionist that our TV had no signal or channels the response was 'well no one else has mentioned it's end of conversation. This was our 2nd stay within a week and the latter stay was disappointing compared to our fist stay unfortunately.

The room was excellent—it had everything I needed. Despite being in the middle of the city, my room was in the back, so it was very quiet and I didn't hear any traffic noise. It was also spotlessly clean. The breakfast was delicious and the staff were all very helpful and kind. I liked that is was not a carpet in the room.
A little too hard bed

Great option to stay in Budapest city centre
The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. Reception was super welcoming and helpful. Small in terms of variety, but good breakfast. (Perfect for a couple of days) Great location, minutes from the underground, walkable to many key attractions.
The coloured lights in the inner yard behind our windows run through the night for no reason - too bright, even curtains didn’t help, u had to use sleep mask. Would be cool if the hotel could switch them off. The shower gel is way too smelly (I mean it, made me nauseous), needs replacement to accommodate for sensitive noses :)

Everything from the friendly and helpful staff to the conditions and cleanliness were perfect. The price was more than reasonable. Location is close to most points of interest and to public transport options.

Spotless, modern, comfortable, in the heart of Budapest
I will recommend this hotel any time! It is spotless, modern, comfortable, with nice breakfast and situated in the heart of Budapest. Real value for money too!

City center, inexpensive, good breakfast
Good hotel in the very center of the city, near the metro and many attractions. Good and varied breakfast, polite staff.
Relatively small rooms - with two large suitcases in the room we were already cramped. The hotel reception is in the same atrium as the medical center reception in the same building. Next to the hotel entrance is a large garbage can, which was a bit "fragrant" in the summer. This hotel has a fairly early check-out time - at 10:00, so there is no time to sleep in in the morning.

Good value of money.
It’s very clean and convenient as it’s right at the city centre. Shout out to the full length mirror provided and very comfortable bed as well. Will definitely come back the next visit.
Would appreciate if hotel slippers are given.

Excellent location
Very good location for a nice price. The rooms are basic and don't have anything extra but they do the job
There was just one soap, I feel for the price they could provide a bit more amenities

Breakfast was delicious. There were eggs, vegetables, coffee, milk - things which we like. The location was great - next to the Basilica. The bed was comfortable. The guy from the staff who checked the rooms at breakfast was extremely polite and smiling. He made a good impression.
The room was very dark. The view was towards the interior of the building and there was no light. We tried to change the room but they said that was not possible. It would have been nice.
