The room I stayed in was beautiful and clean with a very updated interior and many options for lighting throughout the room for different purposes throughout the day and night. I also don't remember hearing any noise from adjacent rooms or the hallway during my entire two week stay, which was lovely. The hotel is very conveniently located on bus lines and across the street from a rental bike station, as well as just a few blocks from the metro, which was all very convenient for getting around. It felt very safe as well. If I'm ever in Budapest again, I would definitely stay here again!

Have stayed with this hotel over 15 years and always enjoyed. The last few stays we had the breakfast included. This visit the breakfast buffet was very disappointing. Coffee machines kept malfunctioning and when finally attended too gave very substandard coffee. Tea was fine except when nobody noticed the hot water was out or not working. Long lines for coffee, so food cold once you finally get back to your table. Not able to get regular brewed coffee at all. Also, poor ladies at the egg/omolet station very busy (long lines) and not much direction at how to line up or place an order. Again, very disappointed and think we will look at other accommodation when visiting in future
