Breakfast was great, location perfect

Absolutely fantastic hotel with a great location.

Room condition are not good and city traffic sounds are hearing from rooms

Location is great, easy to walk to all landmarks.

Good: Paid extra $10 to get a room upgrade in the new section, it was worth it because regular rooms are smaller and dated. Breakfast was good. Bad: Hotel is located in a pretty busy area, and main city attractions and nicer restaurants were a little far away.

Good: Location was very good, lovely breakfast room, good selection of food for breakfast.

Good: Lovely hotel comfy rooms

Good: Perfect location/ Very polite stuff. Clean and quite

Good: Lovely building and decor. Good size comfortable rooms. Good buffet breakfast and nice bar for a nightcap. Staff were very good. Good location, especially for trams and metro. Some lovely bars & restaurants within a 10-15 minute walk. 😎👍🍺🍷

Good: Great location, excellent breakfast, generous rooms, very good hot power shower. As mentioned by others, the furnishings are a bit tired, but the room was very comfortable (some rooms face a large boulevard, so there will be some noise). Very clean.

Good: The young lady at Reception was a consummate professional and very helpful - very impressed with her willingness to provide suggestions and support to our queries.

Good: Hotel was beautiful Bad: Budapest is full of fumes

Everything was wonderful

Good: Friendly helpful staff Bad: Everything was great

Good: Everything excluding listed below Bad: Weak flow and cold water in the bathroom

Nice old world charm but hotel a bit overpriced

Good: With an excellent team, the centrally located hotel offers real value for money. The rooms are comfortable and, the breakfast spread is great and the entire staff is friendly and professional. Enjoyed the hospitality of the hotel restaurant that offers excellent dishes, including the traditional Hungarian cuisine, and the experience is made great by Robert and Brigitta who always looked us with a ready smile. Truly a memorable experience.

Good: Location, comfort, brilliant breakfast choice Bad: Nothing to complaint

Good: The breakfast, the room was spacious and cozy and the location exelent

Good: Beautiful hotel with an old charm, perfect location to explore the city by foot being minutes walk from Danube river and same close to most of the sights, many shops and restaurants around, Astoria metro station is 60m from the entrance and bus stop is around the corner. We had a very spacious room with high ceilings that was soundproofed better than most of modern hotels, if there was any noise getting to the room, that would be from the street as we kept a window open but this didn't disturb us. Very comfortable beds, spacious bathroom, great breakfast and attentive staff. We enjoyed a lot our stay. Bad: All was wonderful, just an iron in the room would handy but you can always get one by calling the reception. Many steps should be considered by people with walking difficulties.

Good: Beautiful Building with a Comfortable room amd bed , as close to all attractions for walking and using public transport

Good: Central Location. Proximity to business appointments I had. Historic building with spacious rooms. Bad: All’s GOOD.

Good: The hotel was excellent. Its location was perfect, the breakfast was outstanding, and the staff were incredibly kind and caring. Although the hotel was old, it had a truly classic and beautiful charm.

Good: The location was excellent Bad: Quite a few steps if you have mobility problems I would not recommend it.

Good: Beautiful grand old hotel

Good: The staff are very welcoming and helpful. Our room was clean and well laid out, fridge much appreciated. The hotel is really well located for visiting and shopping, with immediate access to metro, tram and bus. There is Old World charm here, with modern comforts. I highly recommend the hotel. Bad: Nothing negative to say about this hotel.

Good: History Bad: -

Good: Excellent location, rooms were spacious and plenty of storage space. Bad: Nothing we can think of.

Good: Top accommodatie.

Good: Super staff, beautiful hotel, great rooms, good location, nice food Bad: Nothing not to dislike

I have recently returned from a short stay. I could not fault it. Staff were polite and helpful. Breakfast had plenty of choice. Room was a good size. Housekeeping was very good. Used towels changed daily. Our room was clean. The Cafe restrurant was ideal after a long days walking to have tea and cake, which i have to say were delicious. Perfect location for all sites which alot are walkable if you are able. Yes you can hear the traffic, if windows are open, but was expected due to location in the centre of the city. Bought ear plugs but were not needed. Once windows are closed heard nothing to keep us awake. Slept well. Bed comfortable.

Good: Great central location and the buffet breakfast was really good. Also liked that my room had a kettle to make a cup of tea. I would stay there again. Bad: The aircon was a bit noisy.

Good: Historic hotel, wonderful staff, comfortable beds and very walkable to the city sights. Bad: Our room faced a busy, noisy street.

Good: Hotel is in a great location. Close to all the tours we booked. River and Hop on Hop off along with walking food tour. The staff was fantastic and could not do enough for you, especially the young ladies at the front desk. Bad: Nothing

i enjoyed there.

Bad: The Breakfast was average. Not enough selection of hot options and coffee was terrible

Good: The architecture of the building. Resteraunt staff were attentive. Bad: The squeeky air conditioning that had to be switched off as maintenance were unable to solve the problem. Fortunately we could fully open the window, unfortunately this meant street sounds were loud

Every thing was good The room was quiet with no disturbance we slept very well

🇭🇺 This hotel takes you back in time, the reception is open 24 hours, and we stayed on the 6th floor. We could see the whole of Budapest. Very clean, spacious rooms with all the amenities. We stayed in May 2024. Thank you very much.

What a great place! the accommodations, service, and location were exactly what we expected and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The breakfast bar was delicious. The staff were friendly, the location was central to most of our sightseeing, The price was great for the room, and the mass transit was easy to access. Thank you for a great stay.

Good: Beautiful hotel, very clean, felt comfortable walking the streets at all times and great location with many options to shop, eat and sightseeing. Bad: No complaints. Staff was very kind and helpful.

We stayed here with our 10-year-old grandson for a city break. They upgraded us to a suite, which was very spacious and made life a lot easier for us. Thank you. The service was excellent from the reception through to the bar staff and the waiters. All were pleasant and friendly. I guess some would say the hotel is 'dated' but I prefer to think of it as classical, a step back in time. I would certainly stay here again.

Good: Great Budapest vibe Bad: It was all good

Good: The location of the hotel was fantastic, as was the preserved historic feel. We loved the style of the hotel and the rooms. Our room boasted a full sized balcony looking onto a busy street, but the room was not noisy. The room was clean, the beds were comfortable and the staff were very pleasant.

Good: I successfully bid just 8 euros to upgrade my cheap single room to a "design double room". This is in the new wing of the hotel, and was fantastic. New, quiet, confortable, with A/C, mini fridge, kettle with tea and coffee, huge confortable bed. The hotel is charming and well kept. Breakfast was very good. They also offer free fruity drinking water which was very welcome, given how hot the weather was. Location is great, right on top of the metro station which is named after the hotel, and in the center of Pest. Bad: Only a receptionist was available, even in busy times.. I had to wait quite a bit to collect my luggage which I had left in storage.

Nice place and lots of places to get to by walking.

Good: Great location, wonderful building, clean, pretty nice staff Bad: -

Good: Great hotel near everything. Good breakfast. Great staff

Good: Great breakfast Large rooms

Good: Great hotel with Great breakfast.

Great location. - 100E Airport bus stops right outside hotel. Recommend bus from airport if not to much luggage, Very straightforward. - easy access to other public transport - great location for visiting sites by foot. Staff friendly. No hassle check-in and check-out. Room spacious.

Good: Location and clean very clean Bad: Staff at reception not the best - they advertise with in room information having a designated area for smoking but when asking at reception you are sent outside on the street with not even an ashtray

Good: Perfect location and helpful staff 👌 Bad: The kettle in the room was not clean, although we had it cleaned by the housekeeping, but apparently, it was cheap quality.

Good: Great breakfast, location excellent Bad: My husband’s side of the mattress was broken (right side) Breakfast could be little hotter, orange juice/coffee machine/ Nutella ran out, no one checking

Good: Room was a bit smaller than expected or in the photo, we've upgraded from Classic twin room to Superior Double room. It was modernised room and nice, but I think if we've upgraded to Classic Double room instead, it could have been bigger. On booking site, when you look at the photos of Classic twin room, it is misleading, it seems like there is one bigger bed and one is smaller (single), so I thought it would be fine, but in reality there are only two single beds, so I had to upgrade it. We did not have breakfast included, so cannot comment. One thing for sure it is a location of the hotel - it is very one of the best one, a lot of things around. Bad: Wi fi was working bad sometimes, it would just disappear, other than that all was ok.

Good: EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT, CLEAN ROOM , EXCELLENT BREAKFAST. KIND STAFF

Good: As a historic property is charming and cool. The location is excellent. The room is large enough with desk and big bed. The A/C works great and the internet too. The staff is friendly. Bad: Some could feel the hotel is outdated a little bit but this is what I found most charming about it. It’s a historic property so this is what you should expect.

Good: We upgraded to a suite and were pleasantly surprised. What a lovely suite and the view was amazing.

Good: Location was perfect Bad: Breakfast wasn't good. Carpet in the room was disgraceful. It was old & worn & had stains. Also faded in parts.

I stayed 2 nights, didn’t take breakfast. Room was clean when I entered and serviced every day. Decent location. There is a free luggage storage room, I was told no time limit but I only used it for a few hours, it’s supervised but I could’ve taken anyone’s luggage, I’d rather have them tag it and handle it for me. No laundry service on weekends. I think there are better options for the price, but this is a “safe” choice.

Well preserved lovely old building

Good: room is very clear ,happy to stay here r

Convenient and clean accommodation. Given a quiet room with a bath which was greatly appreciated

Good: Great location right next to underground. Lovely architecture throughout building. Restaurant evening meal very nice. Choice of breakfast items amazing. Bad: Air con not the best, had to open window to noisy side street.

Good: - good location (near to the metro, to the Fashion Street) - good breakfast (almost the same every day). Bad: - because the window from my room (6th floor) didn,t close properly/ very easy, I could hear the traffic noise.

Good: The property’s location was excellent, as it was close to all the tourist attractions. Bad: I didn’t like that the property itself felt a bit old, and some of the amenities, particularly the air conditioner in the room, were also outdated.

Good: Super location, clean and helpful staff Bad: The bed wasn’t comfortable

Good: Great building with lovely spacious room. Excellent food and welcoming staff. Terrific piano player in the restaurant. Bad: I liked it all

Good: Very ornate, lovely big rooms, clean and great breakfast. Bad: Shower was a bit fierce until realised and adjusted.

Good: Location Bad: Staff

Good: Historical building, excellent location, good breakfast Bad: Facilities were a bit basic, but absolutely sufficient

Good: The location was perfect, the staff helpful and very nice. Bad: Cleaning crew times were challenging.

Simple great location. ‘Old Budapest’

Good: Central location; easy access to transportation Bad: N/A

Good: Very central location, decor was very nice and a great breakfast in the morning Would definitely stay again Bad: Nothing

Good: The hotel is Located next to a metro station and close to nice bars, restaurants and beautiful buildings. The hotel itself is also very nice! Definitely will go back!

Good: Great hotel excellent location would stay again nice and clean Bad: Nothing

Newly refurbished hotel. Tv is not connected to internet thought and has no apps also no possibility to stream anything to said tv.

Good: The room was nice. The bed was comfortable and the duvet was plush and warm. The room had air conditioning that maintained a comfortable room temperature despite the summer heat. The lobby is stunning and has a jewellery shop that sells beautiful silver and gemstone jewelry. Bad: Everything in the breakfast buffet tasted good. That being said the selection is adequate but not much more than that. Refills of empty containers also took longer than expected when I was there, but to be fair they were very busy.

Good: Stay here the 2nd time, very good and delicious breakfast nice staff Bad: No

Good: Only the breakfast was not good, others were very good 👍

Great location hotel.

The location of the hotel is exceptional: walking distance to the most popular places. We liked the atmosphere of the hotel: decoration, furniture, restaurant, service. Everything was like we expected.  Definitely we will stay there again.

Good: Loved the location and the decor and a good vibe. Breakfast was plentiful and varied The balcony was great Bad: Curtains in one room were a little thin, so light came through

Good: Perfect location and loved the old style Bad: Train rumbling underneath but we knew ro expect that

Good: The hotel had character . Staff helpful . Bad: Bathroom needs upgraded . Dust around carpet needs hovered. Found a beetle running about on my pillow, caught it in a glass and put it down the toilet . It could have flown in from the window being open .

Good: The Breakfast was an experience they managed to combine local cuisine with international flavours and hearty appetising food Bad: When we did a tour of the coty before we disembarked a Rivee Boat we discovered Danubius History from WW2 When I wrote a thank you note to the GM of the hotel . I suggested tgey coukd put together the Hostory of Danubius from the original Owners through to current day explaining that the owners when they were forced to leave Left with nothing except two empty Champagne glasses . The fact it was Nazis HQ would make a great tourist attraction

Thoroughly enjoyed it 2 nights at the hotel

Good: Excellent location, comfortable, friendly and helpful staff

The grand old atmospheric hotel is inevitably a bit jaded after 100 years but right on top of the Metro and easily walkable to most attractions, restaurants and bars and the cafe is an attraction in itself.

Good: Staff very helpful and gracious Bad: Nothing as such

Lovely stay, very accommodating, nice room, great food too!

Beautiful hotel at the corner of the city's busiest street but very quite, lots of restaurants and shops within walking distance. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend it

Good: The property had real character and a pleasant atmosphere. Bad: Nothing

Good: The location is excellent in one of the busiest crossings in Budapest. The Astoria metro station is conveniently located outside the door and close to tram stations. The building itself is full of character. Walking distance to Pier 6 if you are taking a boat trip, and also close on foot to most amenities in the city centre. The room and furniture inside look outdated, but everything was very clean. Breakfast was very good with plenty of options to choose from. TV, WiFi, and A/C are working fine. The bed was comfy, and the shower temperature and pressure were great. The staff was very friendly and helped us with tourist information and booking tours. Overall, a great experience.

The hotel is located in right in the city center and has the elegant atmosphere.

Good: Absolutely everything!! No faults and would highly recommend a stay in this beautiful historical hotel!

Good: The location is absolutely perfect - many places of interest are within walking distance and there are metro/tram/bus stops (including the airport shuttle) right outside the hotel. The room was clean and spacious and we loved the breakfast. Bad: Our room was terribly noisy. There is a lot of traffic even during the night and with all the roaring engines and wailing sirens you’ll definitely need earplugs.
