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 hotel of exceeding expectations

Classy building with fantastic facilities, including the art nouveau spa. The executive lounge run by Herman, a real gentleman, is superb. The room was comfortable, warm, quiet and spacious, with flawless housekeeping. Breakfast is outstanding and the overall service is excellent. The bar staff make delicious cocktails.

I can’t think of anything.

Perfect 👌🏻

Excellent hotel, perfect staff, very clean and beautiful. One of the most invested hotels in the world, close to the Jewish Quarter and the river, which is the center of tourist affairs. Bambima has an amazing reservations and customer service manager, even when there was a minor problem with the room, they upgraded us significantly. Thank you for everything. We will definitely be back there soon. Thank you for an amazing stay.

Stunning hotel and spa in a wonderful city

Beautiful building, wonderful spa and spacious rooms with bottles of water. Room cleaned with new towels each day. Stunning hotel Fantastic location with all means of transport at a cheap price. We used bolts everywhere and they are super fast and cheap.

All great but it would have been useful to be advised that you need to scan the room card in the lift to get to your floor. Great security though.

The note is beautiful. A grand old building, beautiful architecture The room was comfortable. The breakfast was amazing, a fantastic spread with lots of options. Special shout out to Michael

The housekeeping could be better, more attention to detail. We had to ask more than once for things to be brought to the room. The drainage in the shower was rather slow.

Excellent stay at Corinthia Budapest

Excellent stay at Corinthia Budapest My stay at the Corinthia Budapest was excellent. The staff were very polite, friendly, and incredibly helpful, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout my visit. The hospitality was outstanding, the hotel was very clean, and all services were provided on time and to a high standard. This was not my first time staying here, and it certainly won’t be my last. I will definitely be coming back again.

Very good

The hotel is absolutely stunning, a magnificent lobby and with the Christmas decorations it felt truly magical, it was exactly what I was looking for as a surprise birthday gift for my boyfriend which was the same day we arrived. Breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of choices. We had Delicious dinners at the Brasserie & Atrium restaurant, we ended up dining there every evening. One evening, we even enjoyed live music, which was a lovely touch. The spa is lovely.

Check-in was a bit disappointing, the receptionist was not very welcoming. I was expressing how amazing the hotel looked like, how happy I was with my choise, as the stay was a present for my boyfriend‘s birthday. After check-in my boyfriend asked: “They don’t say happy birthday here?” Before dinner, I called reception to ask if they could arrange a small birthday dessert to be left in our room while we were out. They initially said yes but a few minutes later called back to say it was too late. I then asked if it was possible for the next day at 3pm, they agreed and asked if I also wanted a bottle of champagne, I said no because we don’t drink alcohol. Next day at 3pm we found a bottle of champagne in the room. After having mentioned that we don’t drink alcohol. This was embarrassing and felt like a lack of attention to detail. The dessert finally arrived at 5pm. The spa is lovely, but was quite noisy, people were loud and watching videos on their phones without an earphone , which reduced the relaxing atmosphere. The hotel was also quite cold, even at the restaurant. The heating in our room was not working properly. I complained for 2 days but our room was still cold when we left. Finally at checkout, we were charged the full day price for access to executive lounge for 2 people even though we only went once on the day of arrival, as we checked in at 5pm and then we had dinner at the hotel’s restaurant. When I asked if it was possible to have a discount, the receptionist mentioned that the lounge is open from 12-22 , so it did not matter that we went only once. Honestly, I was expecting a commercial gesture, given the fact that we only went once and especially for the birthday mix-up and the heating issue in our room but none was offered.

Good location, incredible service and ,I really enjoyed my stay with my sister

I really like the hotel facilities, they were amazing love the swimming pool and the Jacuzzi. Hotel staff were incredibly welcome and really helpful. I truly felt spoiled.

The only thing I feel is it needs a renovation, everything is outdated. I am not referring to the building or the antique look. I’m referring to carpets wallpapers paint furniture cushions. They really need to refresh it

The staff were phenomenal and went out of their way to ensure we had a good time. Very accommodating. The spa was lovely

Our original room was incredibly stuffy and hot, even with the heat off (there was no a/c), which made it impossible to sleep. The original solution was to open our window but it opened into the hotel which didn’t help. They changed our room to one that opened to the outside and it was fabulous after that!

Brussels Corinthia is fantastic and I expected Budapest to be the same standard of service

Beautiful, clean, central, safe, lovely bar and food. Great pool and spa and spa staff Beds are very comfortable

Heating in room had to be repaired it hadn’t been checked. Coffee machine didn’t work and wasn’t replaced even after daily reminders and housekeeping trying to get it to work. I asked to have a coffee or hot drink anywhere else in hotel but not possible unless I paid for breakfast. . Towels in room intermittent. No turn down. Drinking water in room, again, intermittent. Reception undermanned and assume house keeping must be undermanned as well

Luxury place to explore and enjoy Budapest, whilst spending all possible spare time in the Spa!

Really great staff, nothing was a bother. Loved the comfortable beds. The Spa is one of the best things to do in Budapest. Executive Lounge was also really worth it! Walking distance to most places. Asked for a late check out and it was offered, which was absolutely brilliant because our flight was at 8pm.

Couldn’t adjust the room air con below 18, the rooms get a bit hot even if it is -11 outside). Windows open onto internal courtyard and so can’t easily get the airflow going. But that’s the feature of the hotel not a dislike.
