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.”

Lovely hotel, centrally located.

Centrally located, very friendly and efficient staff. Comfortable and clean room. AC worked well which was a necessity with the high temperatures.

My only criticism would be that on arrival we were allocated an adjoining room- our neighbours were noisy and we didn’t get a great nights sleep. We arranged to move room the next day.

As ever, perfect place to stay in Central Budapest

Breakfast was excellent, with a great ambience in the restaurant area. 'Front of house' was excellent and provided me with perfect table and service experience

The room was clean, though a bit outdated, the staff were helpful and polite. The breakfast is excellent.

Too much aircon in the breakfast area.

Excellent. Slightly faded grandeur but with top service and very helpful staff.

The hotel was a charming and lovely old building with large rooms and excellent breakfasts. Staff was helpful and smiling. Good Executive Club Lounge. The Royal Spa is a fantastic addition.

The rooms need a refurbishment with some older and frayed appliances- everything works but is not the most modern or stylish. Internal comms within the hotel could work better- one night in the Atrium restaurant a fantastic musical trio was playing and only two people appeared to be dining. I would have dined there that night had I known about the special music but I have no idea how I would have found out! There may have been promotional screens but I did not see them in the lobby or elsewhere.

It's a beautiful hotel and the lounge and spa facilities are great.

The hospitality level of the staff was not consistent, which was quite strange.

Very comfortable hotel

The building itself is very beautiful. The rooms are spacious and the bed is very comfortable. The spa has a classic look but the facilities (sauna and baths) are modern.

The temperature of the largest bath at the spa is a bit cold. It would be more comfortable if the water was a bit warmer. Next to that, I expected better coffee at the breakfast.

Super stay and would use this hotel if in Budapest again.

Breakfast was outstanding with so much choice. Staff were extremely helpful and provided an outstanding service. Really liked the elegance and ambience of the hotel. Also used room service for dinner one night and it surpassed our expectations. Rooms very quiet and very comfortable. Proximity to restaurants superb and a 30 min. walk to Danube thru jewish quarter was pleasant.

With temperatures in mid 30;s C an outdoor pool would have been great! Only very minor hiccup was they ran out of ice for room.

We loved it.

The hotel is in a great location. Staff at front desk were incredibly helpful and welcoming. The rooms were quite comfortable. Overall we had a great time staying at the hotel.

Food was quite monotonous. However I believe this is due to us being vegetarian and has nothing to do with hotel.

A beautiful hotel with fabulous staff and worth the cost if wanting a treat.

The staff were all delightful and so helpful and courteous. Lovely spa which was peaceful with great facilities.

It would be better if the price for using the pool was included in the room rather than an additional cost.

Very good

Hello, I just wanted to sincerely thank you for the wonderful birthday surprise in the room – the cake and champagne were such a thoughtful touch and made the celebration truly special. We truly appreciated the warm hospitality and the effort you put into making our stay memorable. Thank you so much!

Hello, Just wanted to let you know that there seems to be an issue with the shower – the water keeps switching unexpectedly between hot and cold. It’s a bit uncomfortable, so thought it’s worth bringing to your attention. Thank you!

Great experience, beautiful hotel inside and out, good quality food and service!

Staff very responsive and friendly, breakfast was filled with good options. Spa was clean and easily accessible. Location very close to tram and is walking distance from districts we wanted to explore. When we had issues and reported them, the supervisor was very accommodating and helpful, willing no to compensate us in any way possible.

Spa got a bit crowded. Rooms/hallways need upkeep (cracks, chips, worn out robes). The sheets were stained though very clean and the staff immediately changed bedding for us. Food was so abundant at breakfast I was concerned about food waste but this is common in big hotels.

A very special hotel for a unique experience

The service was amazing, the bedroom was spacious, and the spa was just perfect. We were celebrating a special occasion and they received us with sparkling wine and a small cake. The whole experience felt luxurious and special.

Everything was lovely. Pillow selection could be improved, all of them were on the softer side.
