It was a great stay. The location was the best, i had no problems during my stay. The room was very nice and clean, the staff was mostly friendly. The only thing i can say is that event though it was off season and the hotel was clearly not fully booked, they didnt let me extend checkout time even for an hour. Sometimes you just have to take initiative to help out a solo traveler whos been there a few days with no problems, no requests…

The hotel is in great location and staff is great. Unfortunately the amenities and facilities could be upgraded! We stayed twice, and in two different rooms ( regular and deluxe) the shower doors were broken and could not be closed completely. The drains are so clogged, that we had to turn off the water every few minutes to prevent overflowing. And the bathroom are not well appointed. There is no flat surface to put anything down! Toiletries, makeup, medicines, you name it - nowhere to place but the floor. Finally, what the hotel calls coffeemaker is simply a kettle and instant coffee packs.

The location literally across from one of the iconic sites of Budapest, St Stephen's Basilica cannot be beat! Every kind of restaurant is available.
