Danubius Hotel Arena
Dear Sarah, We appreciate your feedback regarding our convenient location near public transportation. We hope this aspect contributed positively to your stay and look forward to welcoming you again for another enjoyable visit. Best regards, Katalin H. Danubius Hotel Arena

Good: A nice hotel with kind staff and good location. Great pool and sauna. The building is not new but well kept up. Bad: Great breakfast but a bit expensive.

5 minute walk to the metro. Clean room, hot water pressure was fantastic. They didn’t include body lotions so bring them. During the 7 nights only Thursday evening was noisy as a boy was shouting and running.

Good: Mic dejun exceptional. Curatenie exemplara, personal amabil.

Good: Great staff, great public spaces, a great gym, there's a pool & sauna, a nice bistro & a really good breakfast. The hotel is right next to a metro station. Bad: The air con comes on automatically when the keycard is inserted which felt unnecessary for mid-late October.

Good: Location is perfect. The hotel near the Metro and buses. The room was cleaned and comfortable. The breakfast was wide choose and good.

Good: The people that worked there were wonderful except for one particularly cranky waiter in the restaurant. We were at a conference at the arena so the location could not have been better. The pool and the gym were way better than I expected. The house keeping staff were amazing along with the front desk people. The breakfast was the best meal of the day. They even gave us a breakfast "to go" since we had to leave before they opened. There is a small fridge in the room and that was helpful. Any request that we made was honored. I would stay there again and recommend it to others. Bad: The plumbing was particularly noisy. When you run the water in the bathroom sink, the shower drain makes a loud gurgling sound. Street sounds were loud. There seemed to be sirens at night quite a bit. Budapest is a city so I suppose that is to be expected.

Good: very convenient Bad: n/a

Good: The gym was really good

Very nice place

the hotel is so big. thats why chekin times can be delayed. the breakfast is ok, not very good not very bad. the location is ok as it is near the m2 line, so it is easy to go downtown in 5 stops. rooms are not cleaned everyday but general cleanness is good. the staff are ok, helpful mostnof the time.

The rooms are clean and the staff friendly and helpful. During my stay there were 2 cruises staying here and we could not use the Today restaurant.

Danubius Hotel Arena
Dear Elena, We are grateful for your kind words regarding the cleanliness of our rooms and the helpfulness of our staff. At the same time, we sincerely regret that you were unable to use the Today restaurant due to the presence of cruise groups during your stay. We truly value your feedback and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again soon. Best regards, Györk Danubius Hotel Arena

Swimming pool was good to relax. Breakfast has many choices and some variety from day to day. Helpful personal at the reception.

Good: The location of the Danubius Hotel Arena is exellent. Just 180 meters from Puskas metro station, with 15 minutes you can reach a station and the famous & beautiful Parlament, Walking about one hour by the river ,crossing bridge and walking by the others side with famous Shues Monument and forward to the Parlamnet as well. Hotel is located 300 meters from Puskas Stadium and about 10 min walk from Kaleti Centra Train station. The breakfast was wonderful and delisious with varieties than can satisfied every person even with champagne. And the personel? Everyone were just great and friendly. A huge thanks & kudos and respect for Ishtvar at the desk. It was nothing to difficult or to big for Ishtvar! The info over metro, best placess to see, best way to go, helping with the renting a car and in free time just to chat! Very helpful, profesional and most friendly young man. The second person worth to call was Ms Magdolna and all the huiskeepers. Staf at in gym & sauna & pool were also at their best. We had a room on the second floor with great balcony on the Puskas stadium and the city. Bad: This hotel have some best years after soo the one thing ''unconfortable'' was the bath and not a shover.

Great food at the Restaurant! Wonderful & Knowledgeable staff... very helpful for Tourism suggestions.

Good: All recommendations for this hotel! ✨ Aesthetics at the highest level, cleanliness 10/10, staff extremely friendly and professional, and the food? Phenomenal! 😍 Everything is in place, from the ambiance to the service. A truly wonderful experience and a place you will be happy to return to! ❤️

Good: Everything in order, nice hotel. Budapest Arena just across the street. Bad: Everything OK

Good: Breakfast was fabulous. Staff were welcoming and helpful. Bad: Nothing to not like but it felt a bit overpriced for what it was.

Hotel is very clean and the staff are amazing - always nice and helpful. Location might seem a bit far from the center if you are traveling for vacation, but the metro station is literally right next to hotel so you are right in the center in no time. Breakfast is also very good, especially the part with local delicacies.

Good: Clean and quiet Bad: None

Good: Location Good bad

Good: Cleanness, food is exquisite, Hungarian corner at breakfast is a delight, elevates this place above other regular breakfast places

Good: Location, friendly staff

Good: Comfy bed Quality of pillows Balcony Bad: Long waiting time for elevator

Excelente hotel, atención, desayunos espectaculares, y con la línea del metro a 30 pasos del hotel todo se hace cerca y no hay donde equivocarse

Good: The hotel was clean and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We especially appreciated the good service and convenient location. Bad: The equipment and facilities are somewhat outdated and could use renovation.

Good: Location, breakfast

Good: The hotel was clean and comfortable staff were Very helpful great location Bad: Nothing

Great hotel very friendly staff

Good: In the ideal location Bad: Lifts not enough of them

Good: Good looking lobby, room was spacious enough, great view to the city even from 3rd floor

Good: Rooms clean and location good food in restaurants very good staff all very helpful Bad: Budapest generally just getting much more expensive

Good: Breakfasts and chattering during our meetings were amazing. I can really recommend it. The staff were friendly too. Bad: I have nothing. I can only recommend the hotel.

It’s like 3 star over pack hotel a little out from the main places at Budapest but over it’s a ok place to stay

Good: 0-24 reception and breakfast 😊 Bad: Little dirt in bathroom but can be accidentally

Good: The hotel is beautiful, an awesome good point in the city, a highly recommend and honorable staff, great facilities!!! A highly recommended hotel

Good: Very friendly stuff. Good location next to the metro

Good: The room was nice and had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. There was housekeeping every day. The staff was very helpful and kind. The location was excellent as it was right next to the metro station. Bad: The elevators were crowded especially in the morning. The pool wasn't as clean as it should be in my opinion and the temperature wasn't ideal ( as mentioned )

Good: The cleaning and the people The location Bad: Nothing

Good: I really enjoyed my stay. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the breakfast was good. I also really liked the view from the window and the friendliness of the staff. I would definitely come back again

Great

Good: Lobby, food, service! Bad: Outdated rooms!

Bad: 25euro/day for a dog is a steal

Good: Hotel is in a great location for attending an event at the Arena. It is also right next to several main travel hubs which makes getting into and around the city extremely easy. The room was very clean, a reasonable size and the beds were comfortable. We had a balcony looking out towards the city. The breakfast included in the price was excellent with a large variety of choices and plenty of everything regardless of the time that we arrived each morning for breakfast. I would recommend it and would stay there again myself. Bad: The carpets in the hallways were a little 'tired', as was the bathroom. It would have been good to have access to a water bottle filling station all day and not just at breakfast.

Good: actually a reasonably nice place to stay, there should be a swimming pool I did not get to visit sadly (not enough time). The AC was actually useful and working! Bad: The drain in the shower was clogged a bit so you could hear the toilet flushing and the shower water took a minute to disappear.

Good: The property is well appointed I would consider it 3 to 4 star the reception and bar area has all been recently refurbished so it’s all very nice. The food in the bar is very good in the restaurant area. The breakfast in the morning is very good and the rooms are adequate or with en suite is very good. Also the hotel has a gym swimming pool and a sauna in the basement which is very useful needs updating but good enough if you’re only staying there for a few days or a week Bad: I can’t really say anything. I didn’t like for the money. I thought it was good value for money.

Good: Everything was top notch. From reception to housekeeping, restaurant, fitness everyone was super professional and hospitable. The massage therapists Anastasia was the best.

Good: the breakfast was excellant, with lumsum variety and great food and continuous supply. Definitely worth every penny. Only concern was there was not AC, and the when we visited in August, it was great heatwave and a cooler or fan would make a lot of difference, if possible. Bad: Could have been more vegeterian good options, the fruits, juices were all really good.

Good: Nice comfortable and clean like always .

Amazing hotel, clean rooms, friendly staff and yummy complementary snacks at the counter. Big gym and cozy sauna. Nice location, near the arena mall.

Good: Ideal location for the sports arena

Good: The staff are so friendly the facilities are fantastic. The food is phenomenal. The location is absolutely perfect. We’ve gone there for past five years. Nothing beats it. Bad: The third bed was just a put me up bed would it be nice to have three full size singles?

Room was comfortable and felt clean. It was a little dated and the bathroom is quite small but still a nice stay. Close to public transport links.

Good: As always, clean and comfrtable. Bad: Bit faar from the city.

Good: Nice Breakfast! Bad: The rooms need some renovation

Good: Location was good for bus/metro and train station for arrival/departure. Bad: Temperature of fridge wasn’t cold enough for food/drinks and A/C was only good if keycard left in card slot. Water struggled to go down in bath after having a shower.

Good: Bar and lobby excellent although the food and drink is quite expensive. Good selection of food at breakfast and great service. Bad: Bedrooms are a little run down. Fridge in room wasnt great. Would have been nice to be able to leave the air conditioning on on the room to enable returning to a cool room after being outside in the heat.

Good: Everything. Bad: Nothing.

We went there for St Stephen’s Day. We had a blast! It was a nice location and a nice hotel

Good: Stayed 9 nights whilst getting dental treatment as the hotel is used by kreativ dental for its clients. Breakfast was very good, huge variety of food available. Staff were all very nice. Excellent location for access into city as the metro station is literally next door, like one minute walk away. Bad: WiFi was a bit sketchy but that could have been my ageing IPad. Rooms are well equipped but a little tired. Overall though was a great stay and would certainly stay again as the price is very competitive

Good: It was one of he best locations during the events around the 20th of August, Hungary's National Day. The room with a view towards Keleti pályaudvar offered the possibility to see the fireworks, laders and drones show... gorgeous.

Good: The Hotel is Very Nice and Clean , recommendable, i'd like to book here again.

Good: Good location and breakfast Bad: Dirty and noisy area

Great hotel to be in, perfect location for commuting. Service is amazing, from reception staff to kitchen staff, making you feel welcome. The hotel is

Good: The cleaners were good and sports centre with sauna. Massage was almost great. The reception was a bit lazy to for example find solutions when asking help.

Fantastic Stay – Comfort, Great Amenities, and Exceptional Service! I had a wonderful experience at Danubius Hotel Arena during my time in Budapest. The room was clean, spacious, and well-maintained, providing a peaceful retreat after a long day of exploring the city. I slept like a log thanks to the comfortable bed and quality pillows. The hotel's wellness facilities were a highlight of the stay. The indoor pool was pristine, refreshing, and perfect for relaxing laps, while the gym was well-equipped, making it easy to keep up with a workout routine. Above all, the staff made the experience truly special. Everyone I interacted with was warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist with a genuine smile. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Budapest!

Good: Comfortable room. Spa and fitness facilities are included. Nice views. Everything was clean and cosy. A great variety of choices for breakfast. 🥞

Good: Alway perfect been there almost 20x already

Good: Staff were welcoming, attentive and friendly. We had an issue with a broken kettle and this was addressed within 30 mins as it involved checking fuses etc Bad: Nothing

Good: I stayed there with my husband and my son. The bedroom was big enough with confortable beds, the toilet was small and everything was quite clean. Some towels were worn out, the robes were nice and the facilities quite good. A bottle of water was also gifted us. The air conditioning was very handy during the night, helping us to sleep well during the heat wave. The swimming pool was also very apreciated. The receptionist was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was fine and very handy, considering there is no Cafés or bakeries nearby the hotel. The Puskas Arena metro stop is just beside the hotel and there is also tram nearby. It is good value for money. We spent 5 nights there and we had a good time. Bad: The worn out towels.

Good: Good location, next to the metro Bad: Just some issue with the air conditioning but we understood that was cuz saving energy in the city so was a not common situation

Good: Great location and connection, Metro is basically 3min fron Hotel entrance. Staff is friendly so feel free to ask them for advice about anything you are interested about the city. Great breakfast buffet. Bad: Balcony wasn't cleaned, small pool area, it was crowded so keep that in mind if you plan to visit it.

Good: Very close to the metro Bad: Nothing is particular.Maybe it could have been more up to date.

Good: Very convenient location, walking distance to the metro station taking you to the city centre. Shops in close proximity as well. Friendly staff all round, from the staff at reception to the restaurant colleagues. Attentive and helpful. Bad: n/a

Good: I loved the gym! I have stayed some hotels with a gym, and none of them was so spacious and well equipped as the gym in this hotel. I appreciate it that they prepare free fruits and water in the lobby.

Good: Easy to locate and easy to get to the city

Full scale gym runs out of the hotel. Very nice staff. Close to metro-minute walk. Grocery store half mile away. Room wasnt super clean. Needed better vacuuming. Pillows flat as hell. Good for the money. Located in industrial area

Beautiful and nice hotel. Clean rooms. Location is ok, next to metro station, and bus station. Varosliget center park is near and you can do many things into this. Nice breakfast with lots of choices and local food. Gym and pool inside the hotel. I went with my wife and daughter, Perfect for families

Danubius Hotel Arena
Dear Spyros, We sincerely appreciate your kind words regarding our hotel, the cleanliness of our rooms, and the variety of our breakfast. We are delighted that our location and family-friendly amenities contributed to a pleasant stay for you and your family. It would be our pleasure to welcome you back in the future for another enjoyable experience. Warm regards, B.László Danubius Hotel Arena

Good: Friendly staff, we used room service which was very useful with a young child. Swimming pool was good, slightly on the cold side, no deep end. Room was well equipped, fridge, kettle, hairdryer, safe, tv, aircon. Good windows keeping street noise out. We used massage service which was arranged for the time we needed. The hotel is encouraging environmentally conscious living too. Good food at the restaurant too. Bad: There was a slight issue with the drain in the shower which we reported at the end of our stay.

Nice

Good: It is very close to the public transport and very convenient for us.

Good: Everything is perfect.very accessible to the public transport

Good: Perfect for traveller's like me because it's very close to the public transport and restaurants also

Good: food and a bed Bad: cold water in the pool

Good: During 4 days the staff didn't clean the room and changed the towels after I asked them. Swimming pool was so unclean. The room was quite comfortable Bad: Definitely

Good: I liked the pools shower, it was really convenient. also the breakfast was rich and it went from sausages to a tasty bakery with croissants and more goods. lastly, the beds were massive and extremely comfortable. Bad: the hotel was so enjoyable that I don't think there was anything I should complain about. maybe the pools temperature was colder than expected but, I don't mind.

Good: Location & cleaning Bad: Spece of the room

Good: Extremely clean room. Very friendly staff. Tasty food. A very small walk to the arena. Absolutely perfect if you are watching something there! Bad: It was good!

Good: Near our concert Bad: Closed bar before midnight

Good: The hotel is very close to public transports that connect to all sightseeing places in Budapest, even if it might look like it on the map or photos. It has a decent swimming pool for cooling off on a hot sunny day. There are enough places to sit and wait at the lobby, and cold drinks to offer for hotel guests. We got an upgrade for our room and that was a pleasant surprise - and a nice little boost for a great stay. Bad: The check-in per person or family was unusually long and it wasn’t clear if there could be one queue or more. The main check-in queue was forming while some people just walked up to the nearby counter for the same service without any consideration to others who have waited in the line. The pool can be crowded and rowdy with people depending on when you choose to use it, but it doesn’t have to ruin the experience altogether. During our stay, the usual room service wore off on Day 2 when the coffee/tea weren’t replenished, same happened with the hand soap in the bathroom.

Good: Spacious room with a small balcony Very good breakfast Excellent gym!!! Located on the M2 metro line . Walking distance from arena mall . Plenty of sitting areas Bad: Cleaning wasn’t good enough , just change of towels but not really cleaned in 4 nights . Weak air conditioning unit and it was boiling in the days we stayed Sauna wasn’t always available Water pressure is very low
