Palazzo Zichy Hotel, Budapest

Budapest, Lőrinc pap tér 2, 1088, Hungary (show on map)

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“Design hotels can sometimes feel insubstantial. Not so the Palazzo Zichy, a stylish, chic 80-room establishment that opened in 2009 in a restored 19th-century mansion, whose thick walls lend a sense of solidity. The mix of original, neo-Baroque stairwells and modern minimalist décor probably shouldn’t work, but it does.”

Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Budapest.

Telegraph review:

“The four-star Hotel Palazzo Zichy is a consistent favourite with those seeking characterful, refined accommodation at an affordable price. It occupies an elegant palace built in 1899 by Count Nándor Zichy, a devoutly religious nobleman who was once imprisoned for writing a political article critical of Habsburg rule.”

Fabulous

I liked the design and decor of the interior.

The major problem is the elevator. There is only one (relatively small) that is not enough for a hotel of this size and 6 floors.

Beautiful hotel . Pleasant stay . Cooked breakfast for vegetarians were below par .

Spacious rooms . Aesthetic . Helpful staff . Easy access by Tram 4 or Tram 6 .

Not many vegetarian options in breakfast . Same monotonous cooked meal each day and too no vegetarian sausages or hash brown . No one even asked . You guys feel short !

Fabulous

Hotel facilities were amazing and the building and staff were lovely.

The road works right outside our window that started at 6:30 on 2/4 days was annoying but the other 2 days were bank holidays so we got around that. The Aircon was also still in 'winter mode' according to staff so the outside temperature was 20c and the Aircon would only put out hot air which was annoying.

So pretty, so great, weirdly hot

The property is very pretty, location is amazing, the staff were very nice

There’s some sort of heating behind the bathroom mirror that would start working any time the bathroom light was turned on. That made the room uncomfortably hot at times

A very good choice in a quiet and entirely charming corner of Budapest. I have stayed in scores of hotels in this city over the years, and Palazzo Zichy is in one of my absolute favorite neighborhoods. The property is beautiful, and the rooms are attractive and comfortable. A very good choice for a stay in Budapest.

The bathroom and the shower was nice. The hotel turned on the sauna later on in the night when we got back from the city so we could warm up.

Great location and room

Beautifully located, not situated on the main road. Right across is an amazing restaurant that serves Hungarian cuisine.

Only 1 front desk staff - during off-hours you might have to wait if the staff is attending to something else.

Very nice hotel easy to reach close to city centre, clean and quiet with excellent breakfast

Easy to arrive and find, bus stop and metro station very close to the hotel. Close to city centre, nice walking tours frim and to the hotel. Spacious room and bathroom for three people. Coffee machine in the room with good quality coffee. Very clean room. Excellent breakfast to keep you full during the whole day, good quality of food, great variety and selections, very good coffee! Overall very good hotel, will stay again if I will visit Budapest in the future

There were road constructions in front of the main entrance of the hotel and it is not easy to get in with the luggage but hotel is not responsible about it

Overall, great hotel and great location. We will be staying here again for sure.

location and room were fantastic

Breakfast this time round was a little underwhelming. Bread rolls were hard as a rock, Bacon was overcooked and had a funny smell. Needed a bit more attention.

Good location

Room was booked for my daughter and was already paid but staff asked to pay again. My daughter paid double. It was really stressful to ask money back, I waited more than one week to get my money back.

Enjoyable stay

The room was good size, clean, comfortable beds. coffee machine in the room which was great. The location was good and accessible to transportation. The staff were friendly and helpful.

The coffee pods were not enough for 3 persons in the room and ran out on the second day. We would have liked more coffee pods throughout our entire stay. Although we didn't ask the reception staff to replenish the stock in the room.

Very nice stay

The hotel is a beautiful, old palace, but the interior is very modern and comfortable. Staff members are extremely kind and helpful. It is nice that coffee, tea facilities are available in the lobby, even once you checked out. Perfect location if your business trip is related to the Semmelweis University - 2 minutes on foot.

I have no idea why there are two separate elevators for odd and even floor numbers. Moreover elevators are quite slow.
