Good: All was excelent. Bad: I wanted doublebed and they got me twins

Good: Szuper welness, szuper reggeli.

Great staff!!!!!

Good: Modern hotel for great price. Breakfast was delicious. Private parking. Restaurant in the hotel is really cheap. Nice and clean room and wellness where you can relax. Bad: Everything was more than great.

I was on business trip and was very satisfied with the accommodation and service.

Good: Hotel is very nice, quiet and very good located. Rooms with balcony have a great view to Danube River and city. It has everything you need including a nice and well maintained gym and spa. It is close to city center and 10 min walk to local restaurants and a shopping mall. Lunch buffet is good and staff very supportive and pays attention to all details. Conference rooms are very good and can accommodates couple of hundreds people. Hotel has a bar opened till midnight which is great. You can look to some sport channels or drink couple of glasses. Highly recommended. Bad: N/A

We loved the hotel as a couple the facilities were excellent as we're the staff couldn't find any fault and loved the walk into the city.

Good: Good SPA centre. Excellent condition for conferences and business events.

Good: Great location, near the city centre, next to the river and attractions. If you don’t mind a walk all close enough to walk to

Good: The hotel is excellent for having a conference inside with very good facilities. The rooms is spacious, the bed comfortable with all what is needed (long desk, closets, mini bar) and the bathroom also good. I requested a room in a high floor with a view to the Danube river and they gave it to me, thanks! The breakfast was excellent and the wifi also very good. Heating was also good. Bad: The location was a bit outside the city and you can not see the downtown area with the bridges and main attractions from the hotel. I only realised this when I arrived there. Some other minor issues: the cover (blanket) was a bit small (not wide enough) for the twin room but you can also use the one from the other bed or the extra blankets. The shower telephone hanger was loose but I asked and they fixed it.

Good: Perfect in all aspects Bad: Nothing

Good: Everything was clean, we had an unexpected upgrade of the room to apartment and it was very confortable, the view of the Danube was amazing, and the breakfast just perfect. We had an excellent stay in Budapest!

Kitünő szálloda, közel a városközponthoz. Vendégszerető személyzet, alkalmas hely pihenésre esetleg üzleti tárgyalásokra. Tágas wellness, uszoda és szauna. Igaz a konditerem zárva volt (előre jelezve) felujitás miatt de igy is megfelelt. Very good hotel, near to city centre. Friendly staff, the hotel is good for relaxation or business meetings. Good size wellness with swimming pool and sauna. The fitness room was closed for renovation but was announced advance and didn't caused inconvenient.

Good: The property is very close to the bus station which is very favorable to use in orde to arrive in city center. Bad: Not all the objects from the bathroom are not brand new.

Good: Pool, termal water, sauna at no extra cost. Also view from the window Bad: A bit far away from down town

Good: Friendly staff, stylish, very clean hotel Bad: Nothing

I quite liked it! Nice location..clean rooms..cosy bed..parking options..spa facilities..good breakfast..would come again 👍

Good: Kvalitní 4 hvězdičkový hotel na nábřeží Dunaje. Pokoje dostatečně veliké, postele pohodlné. Snídaně kvalitní s širokým výběrem jídla a nápojů. Wellness dostatečně veliký v ceně ubytování. Good quality 4 star hotel on the Danube riverside. Good size of rooms, comfortable beds. Quality breakfest with wide choice of food and drinks. Free wellness centre. Bad: Všechno bylo v pořádku. Everything was all right!

Good: The hotel was really well located and the staff were wonderful. Bad: The room was a little warm and I had to open the balcony door a few times to cool things down a bit.

Good: I appreciate a lot of local, Hungarian products in breakfast offer. Bonus is also wellness which a part of could be used by the hotel guessts free of charge (including 17.5 m swimming pool. The hotel is located in a walk reach to most of main Budapest attractions.

After delibarating some hotels in Budapest our choice fell upon Danubius Helia. We did stayed for 4 night. Nice hotel, clean and great rooms, friendly and helpful staff, breakfast was abundant, .... Value for money indeed :-) We can highly recommand Danubius Helia .

Good: Every thing was perfect Bad: Just swimming pool no clean

Good: Is not the first time for us in this hotel, we are very excited about it, very clean, friendly staff, good breakfast, big parking place 😊

Good: Hot pools, breakfast and bar area Bad: Bathroom in room needs updating

Lovely staff, very helpful. Lovely quiet hotel. Bathroom and under bed could have been a little cleaner. Otherwise a fantastic stay. Would definitely return.

The property and staff were wonderful. The bathroom could use some hair conditioner and lotion, not just shampoo.

Very nice place for family. A great hot swimming pool, steam and sauna room. The staff was friendly and cooperative. Beautiful location. Luggage room service available. Not far from city center. Great wifii. Next to a super market, if you need anything for family.

Good: location

Good: Great staff. Very responsive. Location is good once you get your head around the excellent public transport service. Metro station is a 5-10 minute walk from the hotel. Great swimming pools.

Good: Very spacious rooms, hospitable staff, amazing pools. Bad: Toilets are very small and shower heads are a bit low, you'll strugle a bit if you're above 6'3. Not that close to the touristic attractions if you are into walking, but there is a bus stop nearby.

Good: Lovely spa, great location, had a good time

Good: Spa, room, beds... Bad: The heating was too high, we couldnt sleep well because of it and there is no way to open the window widely and cool the room.

This is an excellent hotel with many amenities and close to the city center Margarit Island is just across and a short strill crossing the bridge. The Spa is just amazing and to be honest it did the same than any of the public Baths would have in the comfort of the hotel and without tthe overcrowding. Definetelly will go back again!

Excellent swimming pool, hot water, steam room, sauna. Courteous staff,

Good: Staff were very good, bed was super comfy. View from balcony was stunning Bad: Nothing, lovely hotel

Really pleased with hotel, room nice, lovely spa with 4 swimming pools, great selection at breakfast, very clean. Bit far out of town but 10 min walk to metro and 3 stops to centre of town.

Superb accommodation with pool and spa facilities and some rooms with beautiful views of the Danube river

Good: We thought everything was perfect. We thought the staff were polite. The rooms were distraction free and overall we thought it was great value for money. Bad: They ONLY thing we were slightly let down by was the quality of the room service dinner that we ordered (fish and chips). Apart from that everything else was excellent value for money.

TOP! :)

Good: good Thermal Baths (2 pools) inside hotel. Good view to Duna. Bad: long way to city center.

Good: Nice location in a walking distance from city center, great breakfast and comfortable room. Bad: -

We really like the hotel. Near a metro station. The personnel at the hotel, at the reception,Deborah was very helpful when we arrived, at the restaurant, etc. exceptional. The food at the restaurant was very good. The pool and the fitness room very good. All in all everything was super! For sure, we would go back to that hotel and recommend it to others! Well done!!!

Good: location is very nice, and the hotel is quite clean. Bad: current no

Good: Did not have breakfast but felt that the location was excellent, pretty central with good transport links. I also enjoyed the sessions in the gym and the thermal pool. Bad: The angle of the shower head was a bit awkward even though adjustable.

All is very good

Good: Breakfast and swimming pool. Bad: nothing

Good: Nice hotel with relaxing spa. It is a little far away from city centre but the trip along Danube bank is relaxing Bad: The reception staff told us that we made a different selection for the people in the rooms and was very convinced about it. We needed to show him the confirmation mail and he offered the rooms as reserved

Good: A big parking inside, clean, very good beakfast Bad: We asked for a double bed room and we receive a twin room. It was written that is in the limit of possibility so maybe they didn’t have 😊

Good: Loved the pool.

Liked everything here Staff food was excellent Had room overlooking the river which was beautiful This hotel is not in the city Centre So you need Transportation to everything Also not much within walking distance of hotel except river

Good: Great room with views of Danube, decent breakfast, very helpful reception / desk staff. Especially helpful in finding room at Airport hotel after very late flight cancelation (Easyjet said there was NO availability anywhere) Bad: Not much perhaps bar could have been a bit more user friendly

Just out side of budapest but local transport on the doorstep. No trouble to get in and out of budapest using the trams. Lovely pools and sun terrace on the roof. Fantastic breakfast buffet!

Good: Lovely place, friendly staff, spectacular views. The rooms were comfortable and very clean. The spa facilities were luxurious. The extra treatments were very affordable. Breakfast is excellent. Bad: The resort is quite a way from the city centre and transport was disrupted due to the National Holiday weekend. Also the hotel restaurant did not cater for vegetarians very well.

We had 3 wonderfull days, the staff is nice, polite and very helpful, the rooms are great, the food is very good. We had a nice time at the pool. The hotel is located just a few minutes walk from the Hungarian Parliament.

Upon arrival we were greeted by the door man, he was very welcoming. First class front desk staff who spoke many languages. Room was excellent with a river view. Very quiet even though it was a very busy hotel. Food was great and fair price for the hotel. We would definitely stay again if we are ever in Budapest again.

Good: Staff was very helpful. Always ready to help no matter the query.. check in and out was easy and quick.. Breakfast was amazing. View from the room was great. Clean and well maintained facilities.. special mention of their pool and thermal pool facilities.. overall highly recommended. Bad: Air conditioner didn't work very well which on the hot days we were there so was not great. We did report it many times but was not fixed. There was no milk in the room for tea in the morning which I hadd to ask many times but they dont keep any at the reception which they probably should rather than suggest that you have to wait till next day for the room service..

Good: Location is great, food very good, everything is great Bad: Check in at 15.00 it’s to late for us, because we have a child who needs sleep at 2.00 o clock...

Good: Super colourful bright intrerior...great staff...great location and surrounding amenities....good bar food....very comfortable rooms and surrounding.. Bad: More information on access to to bus and metro to city ....

Bad: No outside pool

Good: Comfy bed, good air conditioner in the room, nice bar area with lovely loungechairs and sofas. Bad: Shame there is no outdoor pool. The sun terrace is nice, but could do with a bit of update.

Good: Excellent staff, we were able to check in earlier since the room was ready. Pool was great, and the cleanliness is on a high level. There is a super market in a close proximity to the hotel and public transportation buses that go to the centre Bad: Location and the decor of the room is a bit outdated

Good: Great service especially from Peter when we checked in.

Good: This is a hotel from the time when hotels use to be a proper business and not somebody’s hobby. Perfect acting personal, kind, with good attitude towards guests. A big ++ for the guy at front desk. He was 50+ years but in good mood, professional, fluent English. Good facilities, breakfast & bistro menu (+personal). Will love to come again Bad: Maybe the rooms looked a little outdated but we just came from a brand new hotel , same city, same nr of stars, with way greater problems. It was the 7-th hotel we have stayed in our vacation and looking back, I am sure that is preferable to have an experienced staff over a hipster atmosphere. All in all, excellent !

Good: Hotel has very rich and tasty breakfast. Also liked swimming pools and saunas.

Good: After one year they made very nice re fitting of the entrance hall and breakfast restaurant. We had very nice upgrade of our room! Bad: There is noice most probably from elevators engines during whole night!

Nice hotel in a nice neighbourhood overlooking the Danube. Friendly staff. Out of the city centre but close to bus and tram routes. Good sized pools and well equipped gym.

Nice location beside the river . Plesant, helpful staff. Out of the centre but easy access to buses and metro. Good sized pools and gym.

Bad: There was no vegetarian choice on dinner menu.

Really nice property, close to Margaret Island. Thermal bath was a little crowded but still very pleasing. Would definitely be staying with danubius again.

Good: Nice hotel near Danube river and close to Metro station. Wide choice of food at breakfast. Car park in front of the hotel. Swimming pool in the hotel included in room price. Clean room, helpful staff.

Good: Alles was goed Bad: Niks

Good: breakfast was great.

Good: Everything was great. The room was quiet and we had not encountered any problems. Bad: The parking is expensive and you can park a couple yards away for free.

Good: Facilities and bright airy spacious lobby. Bad: Rooms exceptionally clean, excellent condition but maybe slightly dated decor. This should not put you off. Slightly at the higher end of Budapest hotel prices.

Good: Location ( 500 m Parliament Building ) , very clean , Danube view from balcony , good wi-fi , big Parking Place.

Good: Great Breakfast. Very polite staff. Bad: A little bit far from down town. WLAN logg in not stable.

Good: pool included was very nice . Good price room/ night

Good: Everything! I speciel like the homemade omelets Bad: I can’t find anything!

My only disappointment was that a couple of broken down double glazed windows in the reataurant obscured the view of the gardens, everything else was excellent

Good: swimming pool is perfect

Good: it was great.

Good: The pools in the spa are excellent. Four in total, varying temperatures to suit all tastes. Staff eager to help whenever needed. Great location overlooking the river Danube (if you have the right room anyway).

Bad: Nincs eleg vegetarianus opcio

Friendly staff. Great view of the Danube River from the room. There is a bit of walk from the nearest metro station, but the hotel is practically on the river.

Good: Pools Bad: Measures in bar.

Good: I always look forward to my stay at this hotel...the staff are very helpful and remember me with each stay i have. I like the new renovations downstairs in the lobby Bad: leaving at the end of my stay. but i will be back again and will bring friends

Amazing place, beautiful area, check in desk open 24 hours rather than limited hours as stated here in the hotel's description. Very convenient and safe parking. It looks so much better in real, pictures should be updated. Stayed there for 3 nights, good experience overall and would book again definitely. Food in the hotel was very good and I'm quite picky. The only downside was the staff attitude but most of them were ok.

Good: -Clean and comfortable rooms -friendly staff -very good location, close to city center - fair price - after a long walk through the city, wellness center was heaven on earth Bad: Everything was perfect

Good: Location, service, restaurant Bad: Showers are too small

Good: Very nice and good quality. Bad: Nothing

Good: Upgraded all the communal areas to a very high standard and have loads of facilities on site. Cabs are cheap so easy to get anywhere you want and traffic was non existent. Decent breakfast, but don’t go late if you want pastries! Bad: Rooms are a little tired but I think this is reflected in the rates

Good: All was great! I's 4th time we stay in this hotel. On husband birthday we surprisingly got from hotel a plate with excellent sweets. Thank you very much for this. The rest were, as usual, wonderful - great breakfasts, spa, location and personnel. I would highly recommend this hotel. Bad: None.

Good: It’s was very clean and had lovely comfortable furniture, choice of inside and outside seating. There was a shop just across the road which was perfect if you needed anything, All staff were really helpful helping booking taxis etc. Breakfast was lovely a lot to choose from and was kept clean. Room was good size and was very clean, bed was very comfortable not hard at all had everything you needed and air con was brilliant, shower was powerful and was offered enough towel which were always cleaned the next day. Was too far from everything you wanted to see, bit of a walk but was fine, or you could just get into a taxi which wasn’t very expensive either. Quite close to everything really. Bad: Nothing really everything was fine

Good: Excellent massages & room service breakfast!!!

It is a little bit away from the centre of the city but it is walkable and has excellent public transport as well. There are some nice cafes nearby if you want to have a smaller breakfast.
