Nice modern hotel with spa facilities. Comfortable room in a central location with the benefits of the Spa complext after a workday. Friendly staff and not overpriced.
Well kept, staff was friendly and helpful, room was clean and was able to accommodate our family of 4 adequately. It was close to everything and literal walking distance from the Danube river close to all the boats. Breakfast was also delicious stayed 4 nights and it was great each time.
We absolutely loved our stay here and would be delighted to come back. It was easy to get around the city and to the Hungaroring (we stayed over the F1 weekend) from the hotel. Stay were friendly and helpful. Our room was a great size (family of 4), with a lovely bathroom and amazing view of the Danube. Food was delicious at the hotel - we very much enjoyed the buffet breakfasts and also ate an evening meal there. The pools were a huge hit too! Overall, fantastic, and would 100% recommend to anyone considering a visit!
I had a great experience at the Danubius Hotel Helia. The staff were very professional and friendly and the services were excellent. I will recommend this hotel to my friends and family.
Wonderful hotel! Very easy to get to from the airport via public transportation; bus, metro and a short walk. Breakfast was worth the €15 each. We would stay here again.
Nice and comfortable hotel which located 5mins walk from a metro station. Large spa and pool and nice bar and lobby restaurant complete the pampered atmosphere.
The hotel has been recently renovated (2025) and therefore the interior and rooms are in a great shape. Also the location is good. With nice views on the danube and the green Margit Island and the beautiful Buda hills.
The SPA area is nice and really good with little children , however it would need renovation as well.
The staff was also nice and helpful.
The only negative thing to mention is that the cleaning staff is not on top of their game. Our suite had some spiderwebs here and there , also they do not seem to vacuum under the bed and sofa.
Brilliant location right by the Danube. 10 min walk to station, 5mins to bus/tram. Lovely breakfast, very clean reception and restaurant areas. Room outdated, but comfortable bed and very clean. Would stay again, would recommend.
Very nice hotel with large parking outside. Restaurant available on site. rooms are confortable but a little modernization would be needed. Very good and various breakfast
