This hotel is a boutique style which I greatly love. The area was quaint and quiet right near Fisherman’s Bastian and a short walk to Buda castle. Staff was very friendly. The bistro located on the ground level has wonderful coffee and traditional Hungarian food, very much enjoyed the chicken paprikash.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel was absolutely beautiful and the staff were really lovely and helpful. The only main issue is that the hotel runs very warm temperature wise and our room was no different. It was impossible to adjust the heating to a comfortable level despite 3-4 times discussing with the front desk and having someone come to the room. Breakfast was lovely too however it was very busy most mornings— once we had to be sat in the reception to await a table. The dining room didn’t seem to be big enough and maybe not enough staff

The hotel was very comfortable and although the building was centuries old it had been restored in a very sympathetic way with many contemporary twists. It was not only beautiful to look at but was also very functional. One downside was that there is no bar nor longue for you to meet other guests and discuss your stay in Budapest.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The reception staff at Pest-Buda were courteous, polite, and genuinely helpful, which created a good first impression. Unfortunately, the rest of the stay was disappointing. • Restaurant service: breakfast-The staff were consistently rude and unaccommodating. Orders were mixed up, and any request for flexibility—such as switching homemade bread for a croissant—was met with a firm “no.” One staff member in particular (with a beard and ponytail) was especially dismissive and negative. • Facilities: The hotel does not have a lift, and this was not clearly mentioned in advance. Carrying luggage up the stairs was inconvenient. • Housekeeping: Room cleaning was below expectations. Housekeeping even removed our personal plates, spoons, and knife, and only returned the plates—never the spoon or knife. This felt careless and unprofessional. Overall, while the reception team was excellent, the poor restaurant service, lack of transparency about facilities, and subpar housekeeping made the stay frustrating. Pest-Buda has potential, but significant improvements are needed before I could recommend it.

Fabulous local hotel in the Castle District in Buda. Absolutely charming!!! Loved our stay. Staff is friendly, rooms are delightful, location perfect. After staying on the busy and crowded Pest side for a couple nights, we moved to Pest-Buda Design Hotel to complete our trip. It was a perfect way to finish our travels. In the evenings, the castle district is quiet and peaceful….fabulous food and beautiful surroundings. Fabulous! 5 stars is not enough. PS we were there in May…

We booked one of the suites for my 50th birthday and could find no faults at all with the hotel or staff. The suites are on the 3rd floor and with no lift are probably not recommended for anyone who struggles with stairs. Very convenient location for the Buda Castle, and very close to the 16 bus stop which takes you to the Pest side of the river.

What a find!

We can't say enough about this hotel as we were celebrating a third honeymoon after nearly 30 years of marriage. Comfortable, private, lots of little personalized touches - as a boutique hotel it was perfect! All the staff were personal and professional and the bistro was wonderful. As for the location in Budapest's Castle District, beautiful and special - we felt so set apart in a magical area, but nothing fake about it. I thought it would have been worth going elsewhere for a Danube River view from a hotel room, but am so glad we came here instead. Highly recommended! We'll be back in another 10 years or so.

Recommend WITH Reservation

Lovely hotel. No elevator. 60 steps to the top floor. Room was not cleaned or serviced 2 out of 3 days we were there. No coffee replacements, no soap and lotion replacements. No service after six as hotel was not staffed in the evening. Could be better if the hotel was better staffed and operated as a 24 hr venture. Would recommend but there will be drawbacks.

Booked the junior suite room 14. Booked thinking this is a small boutique hotel with great service. The room is nice size but it’s right above the front door and on the road and even though it’s a tiny street you hear every car every person walking by and every suitcase wheeled by. No soundproof windows. We used ear plugs. They have limited front desk hours and it’s operated by a bunch of young guys who also run the restaurant. They certainly do not provide much service or go out of their way to help you. He sees two seniors and barely takes one suitcase and there’s no elevator. In this country we strayed in other small hotels and they treat you like family and go out of their way to help. The morning before checkout at breakfast we asked for breakfast (just croissants) to go because of early check out. The guy who is at the desk (really just at the restaurant, there’s not much of a front desk) said sure they will leave it in our room during the day. Upon arrival no such thing. Went down to ask and the restaurant guys just shrugged and said they had no clue. This place really disappointed and we did not feel welcomed and taken care of, which is why we booked at a small boutique hotel. They couldn’t care less. Also note, it’s across very close from a large construction project. Very disappointing.

Bien situé si on aime le quartier du château mais bruyant. Route pavée bruyante dès 06h, bruit et fumée de la terrasse du restaurant de l’hôtel sous vos fenêtres, La chambre de luxe est petite et n’a pratiquement pas d’espace de rangement pour vos affaires, les volets tapotent toute la nuit s’il y a du vent. Entrée de la réception entravée par une table de la terrasse, impossible d’entrer dans l’hôtel sans déranger les personnes qui s’y trouvent. Pas d’ascenseur, vous montez et descendez vos bagages par l’escalier. Une partie du personnel n’a vraiment pas été sympathique. Bien trop chère pour le service proposé et les raisons si dessus.
