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.”

Very good

The building is beautiful. The buffet was extensive and better than average. The tatertots are not good. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The location by taxi or tram is good. For the money there needed more maintenance. Chipped furniture, pealing wallpaper, leaky shower door, mended and frayed bath towels, beds not as comfortable, a bit hard.

Perfect! We will definitely be returning

The room was lovely and the bed was exceptional, we had an amazing night sleep! The staff were extremely helpful and the location was in a perfect spot to explore all of Budapest!

This would have been a 10 out of 10 however, the spa could have been kept to a nicer standard. There were towels left around and used cups all over. I completely understand that this is due to ignorant guests but I do think they should have someone there to keep checking the area is clean and tidy for other guests.

Beautiful historic hotel in great location

This is a beautiful historic hotel in a great location, on a tram line, within walking distance of an underground stop and easy reach of many of the main sites. The staff were fantastic. Breakfast was a highlight and the bar meal and room service meal were great.

The only thing that was disappointing was that we searched for hotels with swimming pools, but the hotel charged an extra fee for use of the pool.

Luxury hotel, but with flaws.

High class hotel, that apparently has hosted many famous guests. Beautiful grand entrance, plenty of staff to serve you. Beautiful rooms, with all the little luxuries you would expect, complimentary toiletries, chocolates, slippers etc. The attached spa was excellent, lovely pool and jacuzzis, and the massages we had were excellent!

The attention to detail wasn't there. We were put in the wrong room when we first arrived, and it was all quite stressful, we were then shown to another room, which when we went inside, turned out to be occupied - in bed! It got sorted out the next evening, with an upgrade, but I would much rather have had the room I'd booked and paid for without the added stress! The mattress had blood stains on it, which I photographed and sent to the reception, but nothing was done. The beds were very uncomfortable, and none of us slept that well. We asked for some cutlery that was missing from the kitchen, but it never came. So although we needed more pillows and a couple of other things, I stopped asking. All the staff were pleasant, and we were given a bottle of champagne to celebrate our anniversary. But it wasn't the perfect luxury experience I'd been looking forward to😕.

Beautiful hotel in a beautiful city

The hotel is very nicely decorated, gives this calm feeling as you walk inside, and is in a great location to explore the beautiful city. I appreciated the upgrade that I was given which made my, unfortunately, short stay even more memorable. Should I ever go back to Budapest, I already know where I will be staying. Corinthia.

The perfect hotel for a short city break

Someone already mentioned that the water temperature was a bit unstable at times, we did experience the same thing. I guess it's a minor flaw...

We had breakfast every morning in the Brasserie restaurant. The buffet was outstanding in quality and the extensive number of selections. Even better was that same restaurant at night for dinner. It was fine dining at a very reasonable price and even included a quartet playing live music.

Was not in reasonable walking distance to the main landmarks of Budapest.

Comfortable and accommodating by the staff

It was a very beautiful property with great facilities. It was very big so a bit of a maze to find your room ! The staff were lovely and provided an Easter treat to our room as well as a birthday mouse and champagne, which was very kind of them. The bedrooms were spacious with good amenities and cleaned to a high standard daily.

If you want to be in walking distance of big attractions then this could be challenging for those who do not regularly walk. However there is a tram stop and metro station right outside the hotel. The transport is easy to navigate around the city.

Great hotel, location and very friendly staff

Great entrance , lovely staff, great breakfast selection and great room

The carpets on the corridors and in the rooms could do with a clean. When you stay in either room 1104 to 1112, you need to go through the “events” rooms which are dark and old to get to your room. That was a bit odd.

Best hotel I have ever stayed in.

The hotel was simply amazing - staff so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The room was spotless, bed comfortable and facilities excellent. The Spa was first class , the food brilliant and the breakfast was out of this world.

Sometimes the water in the shower changed temperature randomly …it wasn’t an issue but that was the only partially negative thing that I could think of.

We stayed in Corinthia Budapest for few days and were pleased with everything.   Historical and architectural value of the hotel is on an exceptional level. We are looking forward to stay again. Special thanks to both Vanessa and Richard in front desk, they were always really helpful and professional.

Right from the start, they gave us the wrong room and offered us a standard one. We had to go downstairs and switch to another.

Excellent hotel, in a good location to visit the city.

The room was very spacious and clean. The hotel in general was beautiful and very well kept. The dining are was also very spacious with the breakfast having a wide variety of choice. The spa was also very nice but you really need to get lucky not to go when there are too many people.

The air conditioning in the room whether turned on or off, made a lot of noise, also it didn't work when changing the temperature, we had cold air all night long.

Elegance and cozyness combined

Besides the place being beautiful of course and the room being super nice and cozy, what really stood out was the attention by the staff

The only small thing is the shower kept changing temperatures from warm to cold. But it wasn’t that big of a deal

Luxurious, Comfortable & Convenient Stay

Hotel facilities & location couldn't have been any better. You have Tram line 4 & 6 bang outside the hotel. with travel links to pretty much everywhere in the city including airport. in my personal opinion Spa & Breakfast were bit pricy, but probably appropriate with the quality and star rating of the hotel. Staff were extremely polite, friendly and helpful. the property is so huge, you would probably need a navigation assistance on your first day :). In house café and bar are excellent. There are excellent Breakfast cafes and restaurants nearby which are extremely good quality at very reasonable rate. World's best café, New York café is just 500m down the road (10min walk).

Pillows, I am not very picky about pillows and usually can live with standard hotel pillows. but I was particularly disappointed with the pillows. they can consider providing fluffier pillows, one soft and one medium firm. at least that's what people would expect from 5 star hotel.

Comfort, splendour and outstanding service and hospitality.

A great location for visiting the core sites of Budapest. Lots of bars and restaurants in easy distance so you can really step into Budapest vibe. Amazing breakfasts, awesome decor and building design. We were in an executive room which was very spacious and had excellent facilities. The house-keeping staff were so attentive; in fact all the team at the Corinthia are brilliant. Friendly, helpful and cheerful. Thank you for the gift of bottle of champagne and a cake to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary.

We used the hotel brasserie on the first night. The waiting time for our food was unacceptable especially as there were only 3 other tables with guests. The food itself was faultless when it came.
