I spent 8 nights here, and was completely satisfied. The staff is very friendly, breakfast for a small fee was very good, quick walk to the trains or across the river for shopping and dining, and a small fitness room upstairs was adequate for my stay. Parking in the pay lot across the road was a little expensive, but that really has nothing to do with the hotel. I rented a car for the entire trip, but it was completely unnecessary as it is so easy to get around without a car. Budapest is a very long way from home, but if I ever do go back I would definitely stay here again.

Great location. Staff really helpful. Maybe nice if they'd put another coffee pot on at breakfast rather than having cold coffee, however continental options were good.

This hotel does the important stuff well. The staff are attentive, rooms clean, and it is handy for the trams. Being on the buda side is no hinderence. There is only a breakfast service for meals, but this is no problem with food offerings nearby, up the hill and across/along the river. You have excellent baths at Ruda and Gellert a short stagger ( or one tram stop) away too. Recommended.

We stayed 3 nights here in our month long Europe trip and after having a fantastic stay in 7 cities in a row, we found this hotel inconvenient and disappointing in few vital aspects. First thing first! Breakfast was terrible! Not an elaborate choice and anything tasty. Arrangement of items was not convenient and very congested and in tiers and layers. Due to paucity of space the portions laid out were small. Some times vanished sooner and not replenished anymore either due to lack of attention by the staff or due to running out of stock. One staff told we have no more cucumbers for the day! Also, somehow the items looked and were stale. We eat lot of fresh vegetables and salad! There weren’t many and the available ones weren’t fresh! Nothing much to say about choices of breads. Boiled eggs were offered but weren’t many and quickly ran out. Scrambled eggs weren’t prepared properly - scaly and leathery due to inattentive over cooking as the staff managing were all the time noisily chatting among themselves not bothering about the surroundings or about the things on the pan and the stove. Front desk person sounded impersonal and remote and to some extent indifferent and rude when we checked in. We weren’t welcomed with even a hint of smile but with a frowned face! Location might suit some but not us as we always want to be in the hustle and bustle of real city centre. This place was little away from the main city centre, though the site while we booked told a different story.

Great location on the Buda (quiet) bank very close to castle. Limited options for eating compared to Pest, but some excellent although expensive options. Bathrooms very small with plastic shower curtains, some baths and sinks draining slowly causing minor bathroom flooding. Lots of breakfast available, limited room if busy.

A nice stay
This hotel is located in Buda and I was glad for taking a taxi from the train station, as it took me a bit of time later on to figure out the buses and trams nearby. It is a typical European hotel, room had all what is needed, but a bit dated bathroom. What was great is the friendliness and professionalism of staff at reception. I was departing too early on the 2nd night, so they organised for me a pack with some breakfast items to take.
