Lovely stay, very clean and friendly staff, the only criticism is the rooms were very hot. When we asked concierge (who was kind)to assist with the temperature they informed us that this was set and we could have the very large wondow open, whilst this helped, This solution due to the height of the room and the size of the window i didnt want to sleep with it wide open (ive been known to sleep walk) It would have been easier to have been able to adjust the controls to around 20 degrees rather than 25 degrees.

Budapest 2025

Amazing hotel. Easy check in. Beautiful hotel and rooms. Access to the pool, sauna and spa (pool is FOC, spa services have additional costs). Staff were friendly and spoke English. Rooms were clean, spacious and we felt safe there. Hotel was a fab location and walking distance to everything. Bus route was about 10mins walk away. We got the 100E bus from the airport to the hotel and same on return. Hotel is a hidden gem in Budapest. We didn't eat in the hotel as we wanted to venture out but the resturant looked lovely and the food smelt amazing. Hotel is around the corner from the Karavan street food. A Tesco and Spar is a 5 min walk from the hotel. We walked everywhere. Buda castle and Szechenyi spa both took us about 40 mins and these were the furthest things away that we did. Can't recommend this hotel enough 10/10

From the outside you do not see the beauty of the hotel until you through its rolling door and see how beautiful and clean it is. The staff are very helpful and nice, even though there was a bit of a language barrier. I will recommend this hotel.
