Expert reviews

CNN review:

“With its two-million-piece mosaic tiled floor, 19th-century stained glass roof panels and intricate ironwork, the Four Seasons in Budapest is an art nouveau masterpiece. Rooms are spacious and luxe with vaulted ceilings and marble bathrooms”

Forbes review:

“As one of the most beautiful hotels in Budapest, Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace is an art nouveau masterpiece on the banks for the Danube River. Facing the iconic Chain Bridge head on, with Buda Castle further in the backdrop, this historic luxury hotel has the best view in town.”

Lonely Planet review:

“No expense was spared to piece back together the palace’s Zsolnay tiles, mosaics, and celebrated wrought-iron Peacock Gates leading north, west and south from the enormous lobby – the hotel is truly worthy of its name.”

Fodors review:

“It doesn’t get much better than this: a centrally located, super-deluxe hotel in a museum-quality landmark with the prettiest views in town.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Budapest.

Frommers review:

“From the attentive staff to the Zsolnay tiles and Miksa Roth glass work, this is arguably Budapest’s finest hotel. It sits directly opposite the Chain Bridge on the Pest side, and more than a quarter of the 179 rooms overlook the Danube, making for a fairytale view of Buda Castle across the river.”

Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Budapest.

Telegraph review:

“The Four Seasons sets the benchmark for luxury hotels in Budapest. It oozes quality from every pore – whether you’re approaching its grand exterior from the city’s landmark bridge, entering the lobby with its stained glass and marble, or padding the thick carpets of the corridors.”

All you need to know

The Hotel Gresham Palace sets a superior quality standard even as a luxury hotel in Budapest. The building was originally commissioned in 1904 by London’s Gresham Life Assurance Society. Its stained glass, marble lobby and thickly carpeted corridors ensure guests are immersed in the luxurious atmosphere by just stepping through the front doors. Godly statues and stylish floral motifs in turquoise and gold colors add an elegant touch to the proud stature of the building.

The hotel sits at the Eastern end of the chain bridge and is ideally located for guests to enjoy the best Budapest has to offer in tourist attractions. Scenic views of the Hills of Buda and the Danube can be seen from the building.

Each room is artfully decorated and spacious. Features include wired and wireless internet, iPod docking station, satellite TV and an en suite marble-covered bathroom with a spacious bathtub or shower cabin.

Briiliant highly recommend.

Everything The location on Danube river was just spectacular looking out over Chain Bridge. I stayed on the 5th level at the front of the hotel in a river room which had a balcony, enjoyed great food, amazing cocktails, and the high tea served was an experience not to be missed. The Four Seasons Gresham Palace Budapest is outstanding and one of the finest hotels in the World.

The Four Seasons Gresham is close to perfect!

The facilities and location were excellent. It had one of the nicest exercise and spa areas I’ve ever seen. But the real treat at the Four Seasons was the staff. In my almost 5 day stay here, I never encountered a staff member who was not willing to do whatever it took to make my stay comfortable. The whole staff was just absolutely pleasant to be around.

The location of the hotel is Super! If you get the room with a view of the Danube River and Szechenyi bridge- its fantastic! the personal is very attentive and breakfast is very good.

At the beginning of our stay we got the room on the 5 floor , under the roof and it was uncomfortable for me, but when I told about this, it was immediately changed

We had a great stay the Hotel Gresham Palace and would highly recommend to others.

The location was ideal, the hotel beautiful and comfortable. I enjoyed the fitness room and the pool. Lots of good restaurants near by. There is a lovely walk right out the front door along the river.

My room overlooked a side street rather than the river.

Perfect expererience

Everything from friendly staff; perfect location to watch the fire works and to go to tye Chain bridge, Buda castle, St. Stephen basilica, and so on; facilities; and comfortability.

It is better if the hotel can provide the gift for kids. We have been to several five-star hotels and of course Four seasons in Geneva, they often give stuffed animals for kids. It is adorable and makes my kid feel like her home at the hotel. Finally, it is better when you can design the toilets in a seperate room or maybe a glass door. It is better and convenient.

Breakfast wasn’t what we had expected, not too many choices at the buffet, the ala carte menu was ok but not up to a Four Seasons standard that I’ve seen in other countries, service was a bit slow but still enjoyed the stay nonetheless.

Utterly exquisite . Truly the best we have experienced. in our travels.Can't wait for an opportunity to

The staff who were so kind , friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and this was throughout every department.Beyond anything we have experienced in other top quality hotels making it noticeable and appreciated. The facilities ( spa, restaurants, the room itself ( 5th floor with balcony) The cleanliness and generosity of service and supply of comfort. Appreciated our delicious cakes welcoming us and recognising our visit was for a special event.

One small suggestion. To consider limiting access for children to specific times and reiterate the purpose of the spa as an adult amenity .( tricky, I know, given the universal ambience of hospitality and welcome in this special hotel) Not the fault of the spa staff who carefully create a wonderful , invitational and relaxing ambience but one visit severely disrupted due to the presence of a family of 7 ( including4 children) The kids took over ( eating a meal, , talking and playing loudly) without much adult intervention.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace in Budapest and I cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the hotel's stunning decor, which perfectly captures the beauty and grandeur of Budapest's past while also incorporating modern touches. The location of the hotel is simply unbeatable. Situated right on the banks of the Danube River, the views are absolutely breathtaking. I found myself spending hours just admiring the scenery from my room's balcony. But what really sets the Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace apart is the attention to detail and level of service provided by the staff. Every member of the team was unfailingly hospitable and went out of their way to ensure that my stay was as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The staff's professionalism and training were evident in every interaction, and it was clear that they take great pride in their work. The hotel's approach to guest satisfaction is truly outstanding. From the welcome amenities waiting in my room to the personalized recommendations provided by the concierge, I felt that every aspect of my stay had been thoughtfully considered and tailored to my needs. In short, I cannot recommend the Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace highly enough. If you are looking for a luxurious and unforgettable stay in Budapest, look no further than this exquisite hotel.

Amazing stay!

Beautiful hotel, very professional service, we really loved every moment. The pool is great and both "Kolazs" and "Musza" were just perfect with amazing food and great cocktails but above all we will miss the bed in our room that was soooo comfy. We will definitely return.
