The location is excellent, in Buda, at walking distance to the main attractions in Budapest. The street (where the hotel is located) is on a slope - attention for those with walking problems. Delicious breakfast; attentive and courteous staff. I highly recommend this hotel.

Hotel is on the Buda side and a five minute walk to Fishermans Bastion. The Chain Bridge is a ten minute walk. A resteruant is down the stairs from the hotel although the food is good, the prices are somewhat steep due to the location. Hotel has a bar and the staff are friendly. Rooms are clean. Take the 100 E bus from the airport and don't take a taxi, you will save alot of money. Tickets for the bus are near the exit door to the airport and is around 8 dollars US. The bus drops you about a 15 minute walk from the hotel across the bridge.

The room was clean The staff were exceptionally polite. Nice place to sit outside. Very easy to access different attractions from the hotel. I did not have breakfast but that is common for me to do that because I like to start touring early. One word of warning for guests if you're a smoker do not smoke in the room you'll be charged Euro 200 for damages. I made sure I smoked outside downstairs outside the entrance ashtrays are outside. So overall a Very pleasant experience and if I come to Budapest again I would definitely stay here. Finally thank you to Stella for organising my cruise trip on the Danube. Wonderful Hotel.

Loved the location of this hotel, within walking distance of Buda Castle and Fisherman's Bastion. There were plenty of restaurants nearby too. They had an underground parking garage which was super helpful too. Breakfast was extra, so we tried it out on one of the mornings we were there, it was pretty good.

We really loved the location, it was so close to public transportation, and an easy walk across to the Pest side. One of our favorites was the wonderful breakfast! They had a lot of different things to choose from. The quality and the flavor were outstanding. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Everything was great. We highly recommend this hotel.

Lila, Viola, Zsofi and another young lady that was there when I returned from the club at 5:30am and watched me leave again a little before 7 for the thermal baths, were absolutely wonderful! They helped me greet in Hungarian and helped me with any questions and information that I may have had. This hotel has a 5 star staff! The hotel is also in a great location. It’s located on the Buda side, right by the castle and within feet from the Chain Bridge. My only recommendation to the hotel owners would be to get rid of the carpeting in the rooms. There was a bit of a musty odor that I noticed in the room. Aside from that, I would have given this establishment an overall 5 star rating.
