“Best part of this hotel is free and guarded garage”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2011
5
people found this review helpful

Name might get you thinking that it's a classy and high quality place to go, but it's actually far from it.

Fact is, that it is still eastern Europe and eastern standards, so no way close to the some what far more modern western Europe.

Check-in service with the mentioned garage were the best parts of the stay and yes, you can spend one night easily, if you're looking place to rest. But if you want to stay for a week or even a weekend I'd choose something else.

Worst parts were Restaurant (awful, super simple and overpriced offers) and the room, which was only good for sleeping (while you close your eyes - you can't tell where you actually are).

“Revolting, dirty, isolated hell-hole”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 August 2010
41
people found this review helpful

If visiting Budapest for any reason, do not stay at this hotel. It is adjacent to the Europa Congress Centre, but if attending a conference book a hotel in town; there is a very efficient metro + bus service going right to the conference venue from the sanctity of the city centre. It's own 4* rating is totally ridiculous. It is, at a push, 1-2* quality.

Bad: disgusting stained carpets, windows locked shut with screws in the metal work so no fresh air, air-conditioning that produces more heat than cool, cigarette stubs found under mattress, uncomfortable bed, dirty duvets and pillows, no utensils in kitchen, horrendous nauseating green decor, no minibar (no bar in hotel full-stop), no hot drink facilities in room, noisy lift racket even within room, hot stuffy rooms, pointless amount of space for a hotel room, safe didn't work, no shower screen, on the edge of the city limits with no infrastructure nearby (i.e. restaurants and bars, shops), terrible breakfast with cockroaches in restaurant, ludicrously expensive for what you get (posh hotels in town are same price), WiFi barely works, only local TV service, taxis called from hotel are twice as expensive as calling yourself, , . did I mention how disgusting the carpets were? Stained, filthy, and sticky to the feet.

Good: hmm, this is tough. A view of a hill?

Please, please avoid this 'hotel', it really is a nightmare.

I will never go back. It is an apartments block transformed in a hotel. Old building , old rooms, old elevator. Don't go there.
