Great location

Not long back from our stay. Lovely hotel in a great location, walking distance to everything. Great facilities and helpful staff. The rooftop igloo bar had a better view than some of the more touristy rooftop bars & served delicious cocktails/hot palinka drinks. Breakfast had a great selection of foods & our gluten free needs were accommodated without issue, staff even remembered us & provided GF bread each morning without being asked. We made use of the hot tub , the only thing that could’ve made this hotel better would’ve been the indoor pool being in use (but we were aware at the time of booking). Would definitely go back

The Hotel is in a great location. About between 3 - 5 minute walk to two different metro lines and stations. Great Breakfast, salty and sweet options, many various foods, fruits and choices. The President has the best breakfast that I have had in Europe. Friendly staff and welcoming environment.

We were right next to a beautiful building which made it very easy to find our way back to the hotel! Rooftop bar has a fantastic view you can't beat! Very nice location in area 5, convenient and close to many of the top sites we wanted to see. The staff was excellent and very helpful. Breakfast was awesome to fuel us up for a big day of experiencing such an incredible city. So glad we went to Budapest and stayed at The President. We saw the other options we almost selected and we were so grateful we had chosen this hotel!

It was a very hotel, however during our stay there was a convention going on and my room happened to be on the far end of the hotel so I had to Edmonton through the main hall of hotel where they had their food set up and had to maneuver my way through with the luggage. Also the elevators were confusing and was not explained at check in. Good location to Cathedral and restaurants.

Lovely hotel and value for money. Check in staff not up to standard of the hotel itself. Think training but not knowledgeable enough about parking situation around hotel which was a shame. Otherwise excellent stay and would stay again.

Disappointing for the price paid

Overall, the hotel is average at best. The location is good and central in Budapest. Our room was serviced everyday, which is a nice change from recent experience at other places after COVID. Other services are however very disappointing. You have to scan a QR code to request services - you can’t phone reception. We requested a clothes iron 3 times this way, and also asked reception in person another 2 times - we are still waiting today and could not iron our clothes for the wedding we were attending. The towel warmer was not working, also not the hand shower. This was also not addressed after using the QR code to request this to be addressed. The response time was also not good, it took more than 3 hours for a response after commenting on the site, and then none of the issues were addressed as per above. The bathroom also shows signs of excessive wear and tear. The plastic trim on the shower door is broken. The sleeper couch is not comfortable at all. Overall, I would not recommend the hotel especially not for the price paid.
