4/10 Fair

Stay was great, checkin experience was not ideal as the open door app was not working.
Alison, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect place for a three days stay in the middle if the city. Walking distance to a lot of attractions and activities, combined with great transportation options. Highly recommended.
CRISTINA, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean small room in an excellent location. Getting in when the 'door open' app was not working was an ordeal as it took a while to get someone on the phone. Checkin was 3pm, not 2 pm as mentioned on the site.
Alison, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice and very central location. Just be aware that you are neighbours to the Basilica and can hear the bells. But it's at the same time a lovely view, if you select the Basilica-view rooms and close to public transport, shops, the chain bridge etc. The cleaning could use a little improvements, but overall it's fine. Note that if you order included breakfast, it's in a cafe about 10 minutes walk away. For us it was fine, but good to know. Use the hotel's Watchapp-service if any questions. They answer really fast. Check-in is fully digital - but we got help by Watchapp. We got our room before 12am even check-in time only is at 2pm, so that was really nice.

2/10 Poor

We booked this hotel due to its proximity to St Stephens Basilica. We ended up staying at their other property (air bnb) that's 10 minutes away and we were not informed until we were about to check in. There was no transparency until the last minute and we were left with no choice. Air bnb property was not clean and there were no toiletries and not enough towels. Would have rated zero star if not not for the breakfast.
BENEDICTO, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Listing for this hotel was misleading & if it wasn’t race weekend then I would have left and found somewhere else to stay.
SHAUN, 6-night trip

2/10 Poor

No hot water and couldn’t get in!

Was locked out when I came back in the evening as my phone battery had died. I was given a key card for my room but the door to the hotel was locked behind a keypad. No hot water in the morning so had to have a cold shower,

It was great location and affordable prices in this hotel for touring in the heart of Budapest.

This was a beautiful place to stay in an excellent location for sightseeing and Karenina and the other staff were lovely. I would stay again!
Peter, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location, very convenient and walkable. Good if you just want a place to sleep. Getting there is a bit complicated, especially after hours. Rooms are nothing fancy, and not the cleanest. Dark hallways. Bed and linen/pillows weren’t the comfiest.

Our stay was wonderful and staff very helpful. Location was perfect to shops, cafes etc,,,

Excellent location. The staff were super helpful. We had a couple issues with the plumbing, but they were on it very quickly.
Jillian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was near many restaurants, attractions, & shops which was very convenient. The elevator has a very small capacity but staff were very helpful.

Great

Had a great stay here for a few days we landed late and were able to get the key from a secure box. Perfect location central to everything and staff were very helpful
Jessica, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Location amazing.

Location is absolutely fantastic. Centrally located in a lovely location. I had the basic room with no view of the basilica but I was out the whole time so not important. I’m sure the rooms with views would be stunning. Clean rooms freshly decorated. Lovely girl on reception recommend a local restaurant to me which was amazing. Thank you and see you next time I’m in Budapest.

The location is great (100E airport bus is within walking distance!). The staff is friendly. The room has everything needed. Will stay at this hotel again if I ever come back to Budapest).

Best view and location

Amazing location, our panoramic view room had direct views of the Basilica. Super friendly and helpful staff. Would definitely return and recommend
Alex, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Apartments “mixed” into the building the hotel is located. In common areas, constant strong smell of trash. Convenience and views are the only redeeming part of staying here
Michael, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

I never received a single email from the hotel & I am guessing they have it wrong. The check in process was a nightmare. Claiming it’s a hotel is a stretch. It’s more like a bad Airbnb. They asked me to leave the money for the city tax in my room! I am willing to pay the tax, but not by just leaving the money unattended. The room was dirty & poorly maintained, paint was peeling off the wall. No idea where the breakfast was served. The stairs to the 2nd floor were very poorly lit. Wasn’t offered housekeeping until after my 4th night. This was the worst hotel experience of the past 20 years & certainly feel entitled to a partial refund.
SHAUN, 6-night trip

Lovely apartment on St. Stephen’s Square.

Lovely apartment on St. Stephen’s plaza. Hear the bells ring. Clean and comfortable. Great staff. Lots of good restaurants and easy to see all the sights. Great value.
Penelope, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

LOVED this property! Communication was great! They emailed several days in advance explaining the procedures of entering the building if coming after hours. The staff was friendly. The room was huge! It was within walking distance of most of the main sites!
Amanda M, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Location

Went to Budapest to visit the Christmas Markets. The location of the Hotel was just perfect. Right outside one of the main Markets, 5 minutes walk from the Airport Bus Stop. Room was comfy and clean. Would recommend as a base to explore the City. Right outside St Stephen's Basilica which is also the starting point for the Hop on Hop off Bus Tours.
Chris, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location. Easy to walk to many areas. Close to metro. A little bit hard to find as it’s basically a door with a sign above. Staff very friendly and helpful. Loved having a kitchenette with grocery stores nearby.
aldyne b., 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is a gem in the heart of Budapest city center. Karin and her colleague are the best hotel staff I‘ve ever met - ultrafriendly, helpful, and genuine people. Location is literally in front of the basilica and plaza, walking distance to everything. Value for money is excellent. Highly recommended!

Great stay for GP week

Great location and good value for money. A little noisy in the evenings and mornings but I would expect that for the central location. The shower could do with a curtain or screen as it was difficult to shower standing up without soaking the whole bathroom! Nice big room and lovely views of the church.
