The hotel is located right near all of Budapest's most beautiful sights! You can go everywhere and see everything on foot, or if you don't feel like walking, by catching the tram or the subway which are less than 5 min away. If you happen to decide you want to be driven the staff will call you a cab. The design of the lobby is wonderful, smells delicious, there are seats and flowers and lots of light. The rooms are well equipped, the bed is extremely comfortable, the service is great... but the best thing of them all: breakfast!!! There is nothing they don't have! Everything is freshly made and just scrumptious! I definitely recommend this place to complement a magical visit to this gorgeous city.

Lovely property. Only one issue: We checked in with friends who paid the same room rate that we did, however their room was much more spacious and had a lovely large bathroom w/tub. Our room (same price) was cramped, low ceilings, and had a very tiny bathroom, tiny shower, no tub. We were disappointed. Why the discrepancy?
