Great Location and Price!!

Nothing can beat its location! It is right across the National Museum, and very close to Gellert Bath, Grand Market Hall, the Synagogue, Vaci utca, and other tourist spots are just a few stops away. You have tram and metro stations just outside the door. It is not a fancy hotel, but really good if you are traveling under a budget. Staffs are very nice and helpful, room is clean, and good price!!

Eurotrip with friends

Really enjoyed the hotel and thought it was a great deal for the money. I stayed in the jacuzzi room with 2 friends and had plenty of room for a rollaway third bed. The hotel staff was also very helpful with directions, tips on what to see, and coordinating rides to the airport.

Sightseeing tip: Long walk from hotel

If going to Parliament, take the train past Parliament like you're going to the Church on the other side of the river. The views are great, and if you weren't planning on taking a tour of the inside of Parliament, you save time by getting a better view than you would have walking around on the Parliament building grounds.

Wonderful stay at Budapest

The hotel is very clean and comfortable, and the staff members are exceptionally helpful. It was a wonderful place to stay at Budapest! The best is its location--if you don't mind walking, it takes 20-30 minutes to the Parliament or Buda Castle, to Fisherman's Bastion, and 5 minutes to the Great Market. If you don't want to walk, you can take Metro--one stop is only 1 minute away and another 3 minutes. Very convenient. The hotel makes my visit to Budapest very enjoyable! My only minor complaint is that the room is a little noisy (traffic) and there was also a short period of time no staff members were at the counter and no hot water available.

There are more money exchange places nearby the hotel than in tourist attraction sites and the rates are better.

Only problem was when we arrived there was no one there in reception to meet us so we stood out in the cold unable to get past the locked wooden door untill someone arrived,and even then did not explane very well about the breakfast vouchers.but apart from that we enjoyed our stay.

Real value for money

Budapest Museum Central is great value for money. A small family owned hotel, where the staff is extremely helpful and rooms are really clean & nice looking. It was a new experience for us to get a breakfast coupong and have breakfast at a cafe nearby, but it turned out as a positive surprise as well. The only thing that we missed was a refrigerator in the room. We definately recommend this hotel and will use it ourselves when we go to Budapest for the next time.

Warm and cozy

You couldn't tell if this is hotel or not if you look at it from street. After you get in, climb to second floor and enter the hotel you are welcomed with very friendly service! Location is perfect for tourists, service is superfriendly and helpful and we were always greeted with a big smile. Breakfast was ok and served to your room. Rooms were ok too, not 5 star like but you get what you paid for. One thing to notice is that because there are normal apartments in the same building with the hotel, there are quite strict policies for silence at nights. So this is not you average "party hotel", but perfect for those visitors who enjoy silence at nights. I will warmly recommend you to try this hotel. Helpful hint: Hotel outer door doesn't look very hotel-like. If you weren't sure you wouldn't know that you are standing at hotel door. You have to type door code (printed near door) to call to hotel (do not press key, only door code and then wait) and ask them to open the door. If you are not succesful, call to hotel using number printed also near door and they will help.

Great hotel and cool central location.

Central location within walking distance to everything but statue park! Great Turkish restaurant right next door and plenty of shops near by. Maybe a 20 min walk to the Chain Bridge and about the same to St. Steve's. Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful...and all nice looking women to boot! Breakfast rocked and was made to order...all cold stuff but good and included in price.

Shopping tip: Short walk from hotel

Things were pricey for little nick-nack stuff. Found better prices outside of Budapest...wines and liquor were cheaper in the grocery stores than the wine & liquor stores. The area near the river on the way to the Chain Bridge had lots of shopping options....stuff on Castle Hill had the lowest priced souvenir type things.
