We absolutely loved our stay here and would be delighted to come back. It was easy to get around the city and to the Hungaroring (we stayed over the F1 weekend) from the hotel. Stay were friendly and helpful. Our room was a great size (family of 4), with a lovely bathroom and amazing view of the Danube. Food was delicious at the hotel - we very much enjoyed the buffet breakfasts and also ate an evening meal there. The pools were a huge hit too! Overall, fantastic, and would 100% recommend to anyone considering a visit!

Good value - nicely renovated

The hotel has been recently renovated (2025) and therefore the interior and rooms are in a great shape. Also the location is good. With nice views on the danube and the green Margit Island and the beautiful Buda hills. The SPA area is nice and really good with little children , however it would need renovation as well. The staff was also nice and helpful. The only negative thing to mention is that the cleaning staff is not on top of their game. Our suite had some spiderwebs here and there , also they do not seem to vacuum under the bed and sofa.
