“Nice Place, not totally satisfied with the room”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2010
2
people found this review helpful

Good Location, just take the bus 112 and after 3 stops you are in the Vatci Utca, the main centre's street. The Hotel is located near the Cittadella, a place of an historical interest. The staff is very friendly, the breakfast buffet good and satisfying, what didn't satisfy us was the room. Great balcony, it's a pity it's the end of October and we haven't got any chance of sitting outside becouse of the cold, the "pearl" was the bathroom, a tiny loo with the door of the shower that was broken, the bottom of the shower that was more black than white for the dirt though of course the room was properly cleaned before our arrival and the shower tap which was leaking all nights long. By the way It was our second time at this Hotel and last year the other room we got was much better. We asked the same room and it wasn't given us because of the hotel redecoration. Actually they were restaureting all the rooms on the same floor where the room we requested was too.
If you go to Budapest this Hotel deserves a visit, what is more it is convenient compared to other Hotels far the same distance away from the centre, the car's parking is included in the price and it is located in a quite position there ain't no noise though near the Hotel there is a big road. Neverthelless don't ask for the room number 24.
It's worth a visit even the pub located on the opposite site of the centre, back of the hotel on the corner of the main street. You may taste the tipical hungarian cusine along with the very good hungarian beer at a really reasonable price.

“Value for money”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 June 2010
1
person found this review helpful

My room was clean and tidy, with nothing material to complain about. The only reason why I haven't given Hotel Kristal more than three stars is because some of the surrounding houses and immediate neighbourhood is run down, but to be fair this is the nature of all Budapest and is not within the control of the hotel.

I think it would be difficult to find better value for money at the price one is being charged. The hotel is up a quiet, residential street and I would say this is more of a pension than a hotel due to its size, residential neighbourhood location and facilities/services.

I received a friendly welcome when booking over the phone and when checking in. The hosts went out of their way to help me with my enquiries, such as where to hire a bicycle. The free wifi was great to have as well.

“Feels like home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2007

person found this review helpful

We spent a weekend in this small, nice hotel and experienced its exceptionally friendly, kind, efficent and effective staff. The room itself was clean, spacious and functional. We didn`t miss anything at all. Our car was safe in a closed car park looked after by the staff. Nothing to bother at all. Only to enjoy! And if there is still anything that bothers you, the hotel staff will surely accomodate it for you. The only question is if learn how to combine tram/metro or bus to reach the center in case you don`t decide for a taxi. Once you get it... the only question left is when to visit this place again...
