Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel has spacious and comfortably warm rooms, making it a great choice for those who do not have accessibility needs. Despite the old-style decor, the rooms are very clean, comfortable, and large. The service was a mix of upselling pressure and prompt handyman assistance, with a friendly and helpful demeanor overall. The location is superb, right at the beginning of the pedestrian zone near key transportation hubs, though some maintenance issues were noted. Dining experiences ranged from brilliant to poor, with one instance of rudeness and subpar food quality. The facilities were adequate but had room for improvement. Room rates were fair considering the proximity to attractions.
My stay at the motel was disappointing overall. The room was dirty and had issues like dirty bandaids, the air conditioning was bad, and the staff was incredibly rude. On the positive side, the furniture was nice and fresh towels were provided daily.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of comfort and disappointment. The rooms were supposed to be comfortable and robust, but they weren't as clean as expected. The service, especially at the reception, was friendly and helpful. The location was convenient, close to the city center, but there were some drawbacks in terms of cleanliness and staff attitude. The dining experience was decent but left much to be desired. The facilities were adequate, but there was room for improvement.
The hotel is located in a perfect spot, in the center next to the main street-Vaci utca. The rooms, although a bit cramped and needing refurbishment, had almost everything you need to accommodate two adults and a child. The service was nice with a clean environment, but there were some issues with noise. The location is ideal for exploring, very close to the Ferenciek tere metro station. The dining experience was a mix of ok mornings and succulent steaks. Overall, the hotel offers some positive aspects but also needs upgrades in certain areas.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were quite spacious and had efficient air conditioning that made my stay comfortable. However, the cleanliness was an issue, with dirty bandaids found in our second room. The lack of a lift and rude staff also impacted my experience negatively.
