Room was very clean and well maintained. Soundproofing was decent. Good location as it’s close to Keleti metro station.
I used, on occasion, to review hotels as part of my job working for a national newspaper - luckily for the Hungaria, this won't be going to print..
If you are looking for a basic no frills hotel, central, with good access to public transport then this hotel fits the bill nicely. Breakfast is a sparse affair... reconstituted scrambled eggs, cheap cuts of cold meat, fruit, yoghurt and a cold porridge like substance. It does the job but that's about it.
I had upgraded to a junior suite for my visit and the room was spartan but clean and fairly spacious.
The lower floors looked pretty dismal and could clearly benefit from a refurb.
The staff were generally lovely, courteous and helpful - easily the hotel's strongest asset.
There is not much by way of facilities, so, if you like a pool/spa or gym session, then this is not for you.
Overall, I'd describe the experience as 'adequate'.
They brought the food in the restaurant on neewspaper. When I protested, they said this was a special paper prepared specifically for food. Then what is the paint for the letters? It was directly in touch with the food. Also, they have “service charge” (another name for the tip), but only one lady waitress told me that don’t give a tip, it is included in the bill. The other waiters did not mention this, they expected the second tip. Nice, yes?
The hotel met our needs. Recently renovated. Our room was a bit "cozy". Super friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast. Parking under the building. Public transportation hub nearby. Also craft beer close by. Will consider staying there again because of the location.
I often take trains to/from Keleti and this hotel is walkable (even with heavy luggage) from the train station. The staff are very eager to help you with your needs. The breakfast is fabulous. Transportation options are all very close by. The hotel has a “Hungarian feel” and I really like that about it.
Das Frühstücksbuffet war frisch und sehr umfangreich. Das Personal war freundlich. Das Zimmer war sauber. Geschäfte waren z. T. in der Nähe, sonst mit der U-Bahn gut zu erreichen. Auch zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten waren es nur wenige Stationen mit der U-Bahn.
1. The room was modestly clean so long as you were not lying on the ground.
2. Staff was kind.
3. Since it is near Keleti station, it is super friendly for tourists who need to find a big building in case of being lost.
4. The corridor next to the hotel was a bit dark in the evening but I would not say it was dangerous. Just be careful.
5. It was a bit noisy in the night because of the siren. The hotel did provide earplugs though.
6. There are some restaurants and fast food chains nearby; still, if you are looking for particular fine dining, you may take bus or metro toward inner city area. Buses run frequently and I didn’t wait too long.
In general, I recommend this hotel for its location.
Service fra personale var godt.. undtagen af, at beskeden om manglende sæbe og der ikke blev fyldt op med toiletpapir var noget dårligt... Toiletpapir må der ikke mangle på denne her måde ..
Ellers rimelig tilfreds..
Håndklæder med store huller i.. de var dog rene.. men alligevel
Séjour d'une semaine. Chambre correcte (certes tout n'est pas de dernière jeunesse pour les plus tatillons).
Multiples transports en commun à proximité dont la ligne de métro 2 qui dessert le centre-ville.
Le personnel est très agréable et compétent.
Overall, we had a great 3 nights, breakfast each morning was was included and lots to
Choose from (buffet style) and was good
and included in our booking, easy access to Keleti Train Station (5 mins walk), clean and looks like it was renovated, bathroom tub/shower should be hard for some with accessibility needs or older travellers, as it’s a good step up into the bath.
Convenient location just 3 minutes walk to the subway/train system, 1 minute to a Sightseeing bus stop, and local buses, breakfast for everyone's likes.
My Magyar is not great, they were very patient with my attempts and did not mind switching to English as required. Rooms were a good size and clean, I felt comfortable there
Breakfast buffet is amazing and definitely worth the price! There are so many options to choose from - eggs, sausages, cured meats, cheeses, cereals, pastries, you name it. Best breakfast I have ever had.
