    Very good value hotel in the heart of Budapest.

    Apart from the tubs of jam, there was nothing about the hotel that I didn't like.

    I've stayed at this hotel twice now and been very pleased with the experience on both occasions. The rooms were comfortable and clean. It's not luxury accommodation but that suits me fine. It is, however, extremely good value for money and very conveniently located. Both Nyugati Station and Oktogon are in easy walking distance. The breakfast, which was included in the price of my booking, was excellent, although the little tubs of jam are almost impossible to open.

    The street where the hotel is located is dark and a little complicated There's no coffee service in the room nor in the hotel during the night, you have to go out to buy in a store Buffet was faire enough

    Everything was comfy and nice Good location The bed always clean and silence

    I had problems with key card, it was often demagnetized and had to be updated at the reception. It was also noisy outside at night, but this is normal for this area

    Small hotel with a great location in the center of Budapest. All main sights are reachable by foot. There are couple of grocery shops and cafe around the corner. The price for Easter holidays was also reasonable. Thanks a lot to the staff for early check in.

    Magnet key to my room had issues - every day I needed to go to reception and ask to renew card from the room. It was annoying. But staff helped me every time and was very supportive

    Close to all historical places and just nice spot

    Amazing Location-Nice Room-Affordable
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple

    • Stayed 4 nights

    There is no soundproof system between rooms, we could hear every single word of our neighbors, they were literally like sitting with us in the same bed ! we could have a conversation easily if we would. This was a bit annoying because they nocked the Wall on us whenever we talk while its ok if they talked ! so at some point it becomes like a challenge ! and we didn't turn on the TV and we were hardly going back to the room to take a shower and asleep so if you had an indecent neighbors like ours you wouldn't be able to sleep or walk or talk or even breath.

    The Location of the Hotel is so near from the center, there are many nice Restaurants, Pubs, Mini Markets Around ! the Metro Station is less than 10mins walk, the Bus stop of 100E from/to the Airport is less than 10mins walk. The Staff were so nice, they upgraded our room without asking, Wi-Fi is amazing, the Safe Box was not working when we checked in so we called the reception and they sent us the guy for maintenance in less than 10mins and Fix it...Very Recommended.

    The only thing that can be improved is the lightning in the room. Room is quite enough for 2 persons stay, but there were only 2 small working lamps, and i had to keep toilet door open to receieve additonal lightning from there.

    Actually we booked totally different palce for those dates, but when we arrived to the first booked appartment, i realised that it would be not possible to stay there even for 5 minutes. So i had in rush to find a new place for stay at least for the nignt. And sudenly i found City Hotel and it had some free rooms, i ddnt have time deeply to investigate the conditions because it was almost midnight. So i reserved and we run there. For my surprise, the hotel is big, good conditions, in quite and clean location (Budapest city center unfortunatelly is almost always dirty with homeless and a lot of marginal people around). From Baszilika it was 10 minutes by walk, with all infrastructure for pleasant stay. From now on it is my favourite place for accomodation in Budapest

    Minor details, nothing that ruins a one night stay though.

    Location is very good, street is quiet, close to main city centre attractions.

    The internet was awful. Not sure if that was because we were at the end of the hall but we could not keep a connection or load anything.

    It was easy to walk to different sites in the city. Public transport was nearby too.

    Perhaps there is not much of a view from the hotel window but thats is not a problem because all the stunning scenery is around the city.

    Fantastic location with walking distance to different city attractions.
