“Cheap place to stay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2007
1
person found this review helpful

I went to a Budapest last year in spring and stayed in this hotel for a two days. I want to recommend it to all people who would love to see Budapest and save some money on a Hotel. We rented en-suite for 3 persons-the price was about 18 euros per person, per night-breakfast included. The room was nice,very clean,with lovely little bathroom. In the room there was also a little refrigerator and the TV.
Hotel is located in the Buda part of the city, 10 minutes by tram to the nearest metro entry. Tram line is just a minute away from the hotel.
One part of the hotel is a dorm of some sort,so it`s not so quiet sometimes. I was satisfied with this hotel because en-suite was cheap and I didn`t want a shared bathroom. I would recommend it to the people who plan a low budget trip and want to get most of it.
Hotel also has a lovely little park in front of it.
The only thing I was not so satisfied was that receptionist didn`t know English very well so it was a bit a problem to communicate with her and get an answer to some questions I had.

  • Liked — price and nice and clean rooms
  • Disliked — recepcionists poor English skills

“Basic accommodation for budget travelers”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2006

people found this review helpful

My girlfriend booked Hotel Griff Junior through a travel agent for our trip to Budapest two years ago. Besides the convenient price, our requirement was to have a room for two with en-suite bathroom and shower. In fact, the Griff is divided in two neighboring buildings - one is a three star hotel (Griff), the other one (Griff Junior) is more like a hostel type accommodation. Our room in Griff Junior was simple but clean, we had everything we expected from an affordable place to sleep. The breakfast was included in the price, it was however also possible to order soft drinks etc. for extra charge. Note that Hotel Griff is a bit away from the traditional places of interest for tourists, it takes some 15-20 minutes by tram to get to the city centre. Next time, we would probably prefer something closer to the city centre.

  • Liked — Very low price
  • Disliked — A bit far from the city centre
  • Tips/Secrets — If you would like to avoid sharing the bathroom with other people, ask for a room with en-suite bathroom

“Don't Stay Here”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 July 2006

people found this review helpful

This is a truly awful hotel, you should avoid at all costs.
It may be cheap (€37 for a triple room), but it's cheap for a reason : it's disgusting.
Communal toilets, shower and kitchen did little to inspire confidence, unless you like green mould growing in the showers,,,,,,
Would probably appeal to back-packers, but given that Budapest is fairly cheap anyway, I highly recommend that any would-be guest with a reasonable budget stays elsewhere.
I will definitely NOT be staying at this hotel ever again !

Stayed July 2006

“Great option for the budget (and not only) traveler”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2004

This hotel is inexpensive and clean. I was most pleasantly surprised with it. It's about a 1/2 hour's walk to the old town, although one could also take a tram. Parking in the back, no extra charges. Clean rooms, hot showers, and a very simple and tasty breakfast. A great option for the budget traveler.
