⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had a wonderful stay at The Lion Garden Hotel in Budapest. The hotel itself is very clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained. The staff were welcoming and kind, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. The pool was absolutely amazing and a perfect place to relax. Breakfast offered a great variety and was excellent value for the price. Special mention to the bartenders as well – they were fantastic and really added to the friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Budapest!

Good and close to great facility. The only reason for “close to great” is that I didn’t get a chance to use the included Spa and (charged) breakfast. Location is great, room is great! I got to stay in the room at the top corner facing the church so the unobstructed 270 degree view is unbeatable. Thanks!

Sorry to say that we expecting a bit more, hotel was ok and staff were nice, but our room was a deluxe and just felt like a standard room, spa was ok. Temperature was a bit cold in the hot tub and the pool, it’s faer to say that this is probably why the room and stay was discounted.

The hotel was clean. I was not happy that they switched our room to a smaller room than was booked. The pool closing hours were inconvenient as well. The fitness center was quite small also. Overall it was an adequate place for a night or two but i was much more pleased with other places we stayed in Budapest for similar prices.

Pool missing

When you book a hotel in a big city during the summer, you expect et to be at warm vacation. That is why we booked this hotel with pool, to give ourself a place cool down after a day of seightseeing. So when the pool doesnt work 3 out of the 4 days you’re Staying you don’t feel you get what you payed for.
