reviews

Good: Central location

I immensely enjoyed my stay at the Danubius Hotel Arena. Very responsive and pleasant staff, a varied and rich breakfast, and a few steps from the M2 metro line entrance, allowing you to reach Budapest's city center in 15-20 minutes.

Thank you for everything 🙏. Not my first time and won't be the last one. I really enjoyed my 4 nights at Arena The room was very nice , clean , the bed was very cosy and most of it very quiet compare to the previous time I came. Only kids running up and down in the corridor on the first night ( from 2 up to 5 am ) with loudly talks and slamming doors. Bathroom was big with a nice bathtub. The restaurant was lovely , enough choices with the breakfast and delicious. Close to the metro and a huge shopping hall. The biggest thermal of Budapest is very close to the hotel by walk and highly recommended ( Széchenyi thermals bahts ) The staff was very friendly A big thank you

Good: Very clean, central location and great view from balcony

Good: Victoria ( receptionist)was welcoming us with big smile. This welcome was very nice and friendly.

Good: Beds very comfy.. breakfast excellent Bad: Pool was unfortunately closed for maintenance while we were there (just bad luck)

Good: Sfuff for 10, breakfast , location, parking, Bad: nothing

Staff were very friendly and helpful. A good hotel at a decent price. Would stay there again

Good: The Hotel is next to the Papp Laslo Arena wich was a great plus, the huge public parking in the back is also usefull Bad: The room has a 1990 feeling but it was clean and the bed was comfy.

Good: Our room was clean, the beds comfortable, the view from the window was also pleasant. We also got free water which was appreciated. Breakfast was delicious with a lot of options to choose from. Staff was very friendly. It’s a very good location if you go to a concert at Papp László Sport Aréna, like we did, the hotel is a 3 minute walking distance away from the Arena. It’s easy to get there from Nyugati. Bad: These are small things that didn’t bother me too much. We had to leave the window open all night because it was quite hot in our room. You can hear the noise coming from the other rooms closeby. There was a toddler in one of the rooms and we could hear her screaming very late in the night and quite early in the morning, she woke us up. Also, if you go down for breakfast, don’t try hot chocolate. It basically tastes like water.

Good: Nice and clean apartment, rich and tasty breakfest good location :)

Good: Near concert location. Breakfast. Bad: Pool and spa was not working. They included breakfast as compensation.

Good: Breakfast was quite nice and the rooms were very tidy and comfortable. Bad: Only thing that could have made even better was if there were a few slippers provided in the room to be used to go to the pool. Other than that everything else was quite fantastic.

Good: There was alot of services,and the metro is right behind the enterance. Bad: Unfortunally we caught the timing when the pool was under maintamce , beside that it was good.

Good: I loved it!!! Bad: I liked it! A lot actually

Good: Good Bad: Little noisy but it’s good

Good: Great location, cheap parking house nearby, metro 2 min from hotel.

The room was clean and tidy. There were complete drinking facilities in the room, a refrigerator with 1 bottle of drinking water, a beautiful view, and a very comfortable bed. It's only 1 stop from Keleti train station on the M2. The reception staff were friendly, but unfortunately the pool and sauna were closed for renovations on the day we stayed. The breakfast was good and the place was spacious. The restaurant staff, I hadn't finished my coffee and it was in my hand, just looking to collect the container.

Good: I did not experience the breakfast. The location I booked by accident, it was the wrong train station! The pool was very clean and quiet. The staff at check-in were excellent. Very patient, as I was having great difficulty with my phone. Bad: Coming from the Metro station, the entrance to the hotel was not very clear or well lit. The area is a little bit rundown and I was a little bit nervous.

Good: Great room with balcony Bad: Maybe a bit busy because it’s such a large hotel

Good: An excellent hotel for a trip to Budapest. It's conveniently located near the M2 metro line, offers a rich breakfast, has pleasant staff, and provides excellent WiFi. This is what a traveler needs.

Good: Great value for money, spacious room, great breakfast, friendly staff, swimming pool. Bad: Swimming pool was always crowded, people jumping, running, splashing water everywhere. It was hard to find 15 minutes of calm to swim.

Really love the atmosphere, staff very helpful, breakfast -great variety, can't fault it - enoyed my stay very much

Good: I was traveling for work and the hotel totally fulfilled my expectatons to have a night stay, work and have everything at one place, including restaurant, spa, relaxed room, etc. Everything was fine and according to description. Very good mix of the price and quality. Very nice bed and pillows, the bathroom was also great, and the view from the balcony as well. Bad: Everything was good, nothing to add.

Good: We booked this hotel because it was very close to the concert location. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Breakfast was amaizing with infinite options.

Good: Well organized, friendly staff Good location Huge variety of food at breakfast Bad: Very noisy AC in the room Low quality pillows No bathrobes in the room

Good: I loved everything

Good: Location, Staff very nice Bad: Parking place

Good: Excellent. Service and Supported staff..

Clean and spacious rooms, good location near the Puskas Arena, breakfast a little expensive but tasty, lots of parking options in the area, sauna,pool and gym included. Good WiFi and smart tv and fridge in the room.

Great stay. The staff is very polite and helpful .

Good: Good value for money, very polite and friendly staff. Bad: -

Good: We had a relaxing stay in very good conditions. The room was reasonably spacious with a very comfortable bed. The room was cleaned and the towels were changed every day. The breakfast was more than enough and very varied. The breakfast room was huge and there were a lot of employees clearing away and replenishing the products that were running out. Bad: The bathroom was incredibly small and cramped, a tiny built-in sink and an equally tiny bathtub squeezed between the sink and the toilet. You struggled to shower in the tub which was separated from the rest of the room by a half-pane of hinged glass.A more spacious wardrobe was needed.

Rooms were clean, just what we needed for a 3 days stay. The location is perfect, being next to arena and metro, bus and tram stops, so that you are connected to the whole city. Have not checked gym or restoran though, so no comment there

Good: Food quality was excellent and it was just far enough away from city center to be accessible on foot good parking facilities too Bad: Nothing i didn't like about the stay

Good hotel next to concert arenas.

Good: Hotel was super ideally located for a concert, on all transport routes. Bad: Very noisy spot, but thats all. Everything else was great.

Nice rooms, nice inner pool, great food and in a very good location, close to mall and metro station.

Good: Solid hotel, good choice Bad: The area around the hotel isn’t the nicest, but you can get to the city quickly

Good: It’s was clean and tidy staff were very friendly not to far to town Bad: All good

Good: Property was clean, tidy staff friendly Bad: All good

All very good thankyou

Good: Staff are friendly and helpful Location is great

!

Good: All in all, it was a nice experience. Room, breakfast swimming pool everything.

Good: The hotel was clean and comfortable and the food served there was very good. The location was good next to metro so transport was no problem and the centre was easy to reach.There was also a large shopping mall walking distance away.

Good: Good location and very good breakfast :) Realy enjoyed the stay and very friendly and helpful staff. I recomend this hotel and location. Bad: There was no real restaurant in hotel, but nearby you can find some. Furniture is a bit old and needs in some cases renovation, but generally it was ok.

Have stayed at this hotel 4 times nice hotel breakfasts are excellent a good selection

Good: Liked the location. Was a bit anxious about where it was ans how we would get around but it was very easy to get out and about. Not very far from Arena mall. Station a moments from hotel so that was great. I liked that it had a gym and swimming pool but unfortunately didn't get a chance to use it. Placed next to Arena and that was also great. Reception staff polite and curtious. Liked that room had a fridge but inside was a bit stained and marked. Bad: Not much to like. Drinks and food a little expensive from the hotel cafe/ bar. Didn't like the cleaners cleaned the room but left dirty glasses They just made the bed , which was fine as we were there for just 4nights. They only empty1bin and not the bathriom bin. They didn't do a thorough clean of the bathroom as sink was still dirty and glass shelf and mirror not cleaned.

Good: The location is perfect. Very close the buses and Metro. The room is clean and comfortable. The staff is kind and helpful.

Good: The room was spotless and had all the essential amenities you would want. Fantastic to have the use of a swimming pool. Staff were friendly. Bad: The price of the breakfast is quite expensive. The location while beside the puskas stadium and rail station is quite a distance from the main parts of the city so we used Bolt taxis everywhere we had to go (thankfully these taxis are far cheaper than the standard ubers around the rest of europe).

Good: Staff are great and friendly & rooms are big and clean And their breakfast is amazing Bad: It's a little far from everything but if you don't mind walking then it will be fine

Great Hotel.

Good: Nice hotel, helpful staff, close to the public transport. Bad: I missed a wall clock, but is not a problem

Good: Nearby underground station line M2, and other options. Underground parking right behind the hotel ( 5-6€ per night). Friendly staff, you can use sauna and pool (we didn’t so I don’t know if it’s ok). Bad: You can hear buses and traffic in general. Also other guests, not necessarily on your floor. Also water pressure could be higher.

Good: Comfortable beds, conveniently located to the red metro station, bus stops and shopping mall all within walking distance. Great value for the money. We’ll definitely stay here again. Bad: Overall pretty clean, tabletop was a little sticky. Older hotel, minor wear and tear is okay.

Good: Room pretty clean, just furniture is a bit tired. Breakfast good, just overcrowded. Staff always absolutely friendly... Bad: Very limited parking space.

Good: Next to metro station, clean room, nearby cheap parking and super good breakfast.

Good: Excelent personel and service. I am very happy to come back again (my second stay now). Bad: I expected more from wellness but there was no false adv.

Good: We liked the location close to central bus station and near the metro station. The breakfast was good and asorted and the room was clean and comfortable

Good: Me and my son was stay there for a night to see Hungary-Portugal qualifiers.The stadium was just around hundred yard.We had a room with really nice view from the 6th floor.We was able to see the stadium as well which looks so beautiful!Really clean,staff very friendly.The breakfast was nice and lot of choose from.I highly recommend this place!

Good: Really nice hotel, close to the metro station, clean room, tasty breakfast, good extras like pool and spa, friendly and professional service.

Good: The location for my stay was excellent next door to the stadium The staff were very helpful and professional The room was clean and perfect for a short stay Bad: N/A

Good: The hotel is in a great location, close to the metro with easy access to the city centre. The room was spacious, very clean, and had excellent air conditioning, which was a big help during the hot weather. The beds were extremely comfortable, the staff were lovely, and the breakfast was excellent. Bad: The only issue was that parking wasn’t included and had to be paid separately.

The Danubius Hotel Arena is well located to access any place in Budapest in a matter of minutes. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Good: gym, pool, clean rooms

Good: Convenient

Good: Staff was helpful and Location was really great Bad: Bathroom were too small honestly Breakfast was nice just thought being an Egg eater only scrambled eggs for 5 days wasn’t expected

5 star service .We stayed there 5 days . They went out of their way to assist us .

Good: Best Bad: Best

Good: Everything, we stay there every year for Formul 1 Bad: At the swimming pool is open on weekends, the same like working days, and that being from 6am

Good: Perfect for the price and it was very clean and very kind staff working at the reception Bad: Nothing

Good: Great location – right next to the M2 metro line station. You can easily get tickets through the Budapest Go app or from the machine at the station. Breakfasts are fantastic – a wide variety of dishes and a big dining area. Served from 7 to 10 AM. Parking isn’t expensive: you can choose the hotel’s own parking for 5500 HUF per day, or the underground parking right next to the hotel for 2500 HUF per day. Guests also have access to a gym and a swimming pool. On the downside, in some places you can tell the hotel is a bit old. Bad: A bit old.

Good: Location (behind Keleti Station, next to Metro Station), attentive staff members, gym & pool, excellent foods, got a small but cozy room with a lovely balcony! Bad: No complaints - the building is not attractive but this is what is called Socialist heritage, loved it!

Good: Very nice Hotel, good facilities , gym , breakfast , staff, WIFI. Nice Park and Food places not far away. Not in the center but close enough to walk to most things, you would need a taxi to reach the river or beyond. I really enjoyed my stay and will come back Bad: WIFI was excellent but it was reset every 24 hours so you had reconnect.

Good: We were there for a short time, so we didn’t get the chance to enjoy the gym and pool, but we had everything we needed. The staff was nice. The metro station is very close, and it has a kind of “communist-era” vibe, which I somehow enjoyed. Bad: The shower pressure wasn’t good.

I would start by saying that the reception speaks perfect English, it is not a problem to understand, the price will be offered in both currencies, all information was perfectly presented, check-in and check-out were quick, I would also rate the cleaning and services as excellent, including the pool and gym, the lady at the "reception" was helpful but not as much as I expected, or rather, she only showed us where to go to the pool and the gentleman at the pool, I understand that it is not easy to communicate with tourists, but the fact that he did not even know English did not make the situation easier, as we and other guests were disturbed by the children of other people from the accommodation who were quite noisy and after a while they started running and jumping into the pool even though it was expressly forbidden on the signs, and the pool would also deserve a renovation. The breakfast was perfect for me, there was a lot of choice and delicious food, and the lady at the entrance was very nice. The fact that the hotel is in The proximity of the stadium and the metro is probably clear to everyone (I've seen negative reviews about it here) and the noise simply cannot be limited to one hundred percent, but I don't consider that a minus, rather neutral, since the transportation from this hotel is perfectly easy. Thank you once again to the employees who know how to do their job here to one hundred percent, you are perfect.

Good: Right next to the subway so great location for the money

Good: The location was nice, although not the closest to the center but still practical since it was right next to the metro station. The view was also nice and the beds were comfortable, there was no big noise neither from the outside or from the rooms next door. Bad: The bathroom's drain was really slow so it was a bit uncomfortable to take a shower, there were a few strands of hair in the bathroom so would recommend a more thorough clean-up (the cleaning lady we met was very nice though!). The closet was a bit small for 2 people.

Good: The staff were very pleasant and always helpful Bad: Everything was great and was nice to be able to use a huge gym and nice pool

A beautiful hotel, very welcoming receptionists. The room was very nice. The hotel is in a quiet area, and less than 5 minutes from the hotel is the M2 metro station, which leads to many important areas of the city. We will return to this hotel

Good: The hotel is very conveniently located right next to the Puskas Ferenc Stadion metro stop and is only 4 stops away from Deak Ferenc ter. My room had a good size, the bed was comfortable. The receptionists were helpful and friendly, breakfast had a good selection. I also enjoyed the swimming pool. I'm planning to return here.

Good: Comfortable beds and lovely view of the fireworks from the balcony. Staff were quick to resolve any issues we had in the room and were kind and courteous. Great gym facilities? Didn’t have time to try the pool as we were busy most days but that was a great perk. Bad: Restaurant prices were rather high

Good: Good location, right next to the subway station. Clean bathroom. Loved their own shower gel with nice fruity smell, which is specifically made for the hotel. Polite staff. Very rich breakfast.

Good: The breakfast is very good. The room is comfortable. Bad: The fridge in the room was not working. There was no shower gel and soap.

Good: Very comfortable stay and the location is next to Metro line 2. Very convenient to reach all around Budapest.

Good: Value for money Bad: Wellness could not offer massage service

Good: Great hotel. Best attention Bad: Everything was excellent

Good: Perfect location - only 1 min from metro station, parking in front of the hotel or behind the hotel. The fridge in the room wasn't working but they replaces it immediately after my complaint. Suitable hotel for a short trip in Budapest.

Good: The hotel is very close to the metro station so it is easy to get to the city center. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I liked the pool and sauna.

Good: I liked the location of the Hotel. Not very close to the center but really close to a metro station. In 5 minutes you could be in the center. Room was large and had everything we could ask. There is a swimming pool for the customers. Spa, hamam. Bad: Weak WiFi signal. Really weak...

Good: Close to a metro station, trams, and at a walking distance to the city center, the hotel's location is super handy. It's right by two sports stadiums, so great also for sports events and concerts. The rooms are clean, the AC works, there are enough electrical outlets, and the TV has international channels as well as the Hungarian ones. We also had a balcony. The hotel's breakfast was varied with both sweet and savory options, fresh fruits and baked goods every day. Also included lactose and gluten free options. Bad: The rooms are not super sound-proof, and we had a lot of children on our floor. You can also hear all the party-goers arriving at their rooms during the night, which can wake you up if you have lighter sleep.

Good: It is a 4 Star hotel. You get everything what you need. Bad: The hotel is in a good zone, but at night, around the zone, there might be some dubious people (street people). I think, it is still safe to go out at night, but might feel uncomfortable.

Good: Good breakfast selection

Very good hotel nearby the city center. Small pool with sauna and good gym area is available, the stuff were kind to us.

Good: The location is incredible! The underground station is 1 minute walk, there are a lot of buses and a huge shopping center not far from the hotel. What’s more, there’s a pool! The staff is very friendly! Bad: You can hear everything and everybody…
