Impressive architecture, good location on the Buda-side by the Danube. The famous Gellért is an old shoe that once was overwhelmingly beautiful, but now quite worn out. The hotel really needs make-up. |

The swimming bath inside and outside and the architecture of this old building single rooms are very simple and poor. For the price too simple. I have chosen it only because of the Youthstyle bath. For recommendation it depends what people like and search... There are cheaper hotels with more comfort. But the architecture is amazing. |

Great history and has obviously been a hotel with class over the years. The hotel is showing its age. The furniture was in poor shape. I visited on business. The room does not have a comfortable chair or desk to work at and the business center is not open late. |

Access to the Thermal Baths of Gellert. The room was small, smelling very badly from the bathroom, not refurbished, would say dirty and had a look like a 1 star hotel. |

I liked the hotel facilities of the thermal baths and swimming pool.I liked the location. I did not like the single room - it was very small and had no outlook.It was quite claustrophobic. The hotel is a little tired looking. The breakfast was very average. |

The SPA / thermal (free entrance) is wonderful, thanks also to the several external swimming pools. The buffet breakfast is actually in the standard of 4 stars hotel. They assigned a room very large without price upgrade, the dimension was probably 25 square meters. The room furnishings should be replaced with newer ones, mostly the bath. The room does not provide a safety-box, however there are free safety-box at the reception. Only the employes at the reception speak english. |

Professional staff, access to classic baths The room was by no means "four stars", a "one star" room in a "four star" hotel would be more to the point, it was depressingly run down (nevertheless reasonably fairly priced considering the access to the bath and inclusion of breakfast. |

The Thermal Bath is a MUST TRY! It's very "Hungarian". Its location is pretty close to the Central Market, which worths a visit. I agree with other commentators that in terms of the rent price and its room interior design and room facilities, this hotel does not worth 4-stars --- At best it should be 3-stars. Amenities are very insufficient (as a 4-stars) Interior decorations like a hostel (big contrast to with exterior). |

whole atmosphere,wonderful historic architechture,decor,stained glass mosaic etc.Central for shops sightseeing.mostly helpful staff.Relaxing..convenient to get to pool etc.Breakfast amazing .handy leaflets with info on Budapest.would recommend to others and visit again. not really a complaint but could have done with more comprehensive list and prices for beauty ,medical treatments and how to book them......more chance of booking something then..Found the locker thing at the pool a bit confusing,might be worth puting some notices in english up. |

Breakfast was good and the hotel has a romantic 1950's classic feel. Very comfortable for the price. |

the front desk staff are excellent, helpful; the old spa is still a great place to see. i have stayed at this hotel in the past when it was less run down. it really needs new carpets, plumbing repairs, general refurbishing and deserves all this, as it should be a first class facility |

The proximity to both Castle Hill and the various sites in Pest was pretty good. Also, the Gellert Baths are connected to the hotel property which was great. I loved the spa and the fact that it is free to hotel guests was even better. The rooms are not particularly nice. My room was TINY and a little dingy. |

Before I went I read various reviews on different websites,many of which were very negative,as a result I was a little apprehensive.However upon arrival I was suitably impressed with the grandeur of the foyer and the genuine welcome I received from the staff. To say did not like would be unfair but I would have appreciated tea and coffee making facilities in the room,but believe me this did not detract from my stay in any way. |

The attractive Jugendstil style and grandeur of the hotel and especially the swimming pool and heated baths and massage rooms. The location is very convenient for sight seeing in Buda. No soap, shower cap or shampoo and conditioner provided in the bedroom. |

They must definitely renovate the rooms. Although the common spaces are stylish, the rooms are old and especially the bathrooms. As above for the Gellert baths that although are not property of the hotel, do serve the hotel guests. They need thorough cleaning as they remind of the communist past. |
