Located right in the heart of Margaret Island, this hotel offers a serene and luxurious retreat that feels worlds away from the city bustle. While taking a taxi to reach it is recommended for convenience, the moment you step inside, you're greeted with an exceptional atmosphere perfect for business travelers or anyone seeking peace and comfort. I was especially charmed by the motorcycles parked right outside—though I don’t ride, I can only imagine how amazing it would be to cruise along the Danube River on one. The island setting is lush, quiet, and full of greenery, making it ideal for unwinding. Everything about this place feels thoughtfully designed, from the ambiance to the attention to detail. It’s not just a stay—it’s an experience. Definitely a top pick for anyone visiting Budapest.

I absolutely loved this hotel! Tucked away in a quiet alley, it's a peaceful retreat right next to the Danube River. The location is perfect for morning walks along the riverbank—just a short stroll away. The breakfast was fantastic: fresh, abundant, and full of local flavors that made my mornings special. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, going out of their way to make sure we felt at home. It’s rare to find such a charming, authentic experience in a city like Budapest. I’d definitely stay here again—truly one of the highlights of my trip!

Staying at Mirage Medic Hotel was an absolute delight from start to finish. The apartment-style rooms are spacious, clean, and beautifully designed with a modern yet cozy touch—perfect for both short trips and longer stays. What truly stands out is the location: just across from Heroes' Square, surrounded by museums and within easy walking distance to the park where you can take a hot air balloon ride for breathtaking panoramic views of Budapest. It’s rare to find such a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and charm in one place. The value for money is outstanding—this isn’t just a hotel, it’s a memorable experience. I’ll definitely be returning.

We've stayed at Five Season's Apartment multiple times and are already planning our next visit—whether it's with family or friends, this place keeps winning us over. The location is unbeatable: just a short walk from major attractions and surrounded by great restaurants, cafes, and grocery stores. The apartment itself is spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed—kitchen essentials, cozy bedding, and even fast Wi-Fi. Our host, Gabor, was incredibly welcoming, responsive, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. His local tips made our trip even more enjoyable. It’s rare to find such a reliable, warm, and thoughtfully managed property in Budapest. If you're looking for comfort, convenience, and a home-away-from-home vibe, this is the perfect choice.

The owner of this property is absolutely unacceptable—abusive, unprofessional, and completely lacking in integrity. I booked a two-night stay at Cuki Apartment in Budapest for July 19–21, 2024, paying €180 upfront with a non-refundable policy. I assumed the booking was secure after payment confirmation and didn’t think twice about it—until November 14th, when I received an email from Booking asking if I found managing my reservation easy. That’s when I realized something was wrong. I checked the booking and nearly passed out: the host had changed my dates from July 19–21 to July 29–31 without my knowledge or consent. Clearly, they were trying to charge me double by forcing a cancellation. I reported it immediately. By 1 PM, I got a message saying Booking apologized and restored my original dates. Less than five minutes later, the host changed them again! I reported once more, and by 3 PM, I received another apology and a reversal to the correct dates. But then came the shock—the system now showed a pending payment of 77 lei, claiming I’d “changed the reservation,” and warned that failure to pay by November 16 would result in cancellation. I complained again, demanding removal of this false charge. On November 15th, I got a reply that made no sense—I was told there was a policy error: the minimum stay was actually five nights, so I could only keep the reservation if I extended by three additional nights. I was furious. I pointed out that I never asked for this, and that the issue wasn’t the extension—it was the fake 77-lei fee. Still, the host kept pushing me to cancel. When I refused, they changed my dates again—this time to August 5–7, 2024. What’s most disturbing? The platform did nothing to stop or penalize the host despite repeated violations. They continued manipulating my booking with zero accountability. At that point, I gave up. I couldn’t risk arriving in Budapest only to find the door locked because of their antics. This experience has left me deeply frustrated. I expect full refund—not just a vague promise of “difference” within 7–14 days. The lack of oversight and protection for guests is alarming. If platforms allow such behavior, travelers will lose trust entirely. This is not just poor service—it’s abuse. I strongly advise anyone to avoid this property and its owner at all costs.

Staying at Ibis Budapest Castle Hill was an absolute highlight of my trip to Budapest. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from Fisherman's Bastion and other top attractions, and the metro station is literally right around the corner, making it super easy to explore the city.

The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. For the price, this hotel offers excellent value. If you're visiting Budapest and want a central, hassle-free stay, this is definitely a top pick. Highly recommended!

My stay at the Barceló Budapest was absolutely excellent. The location couldn’t be better—just steps away from multiple public transport options, making it super easy to explore the city.

Budapest is absolutely magical, and I can't thank Stories Hotel enough for such an unforgettable stay! The moment you step inside, you're instantly immersed in the vibrant energy of the city—lush greenery, lively atmosphere, and a true sense of place. What truly impressed me was the incredible soundproofing in the rooms; it felt like a peaceful retreat even in the heart of the bustling city. Breakfast at K26? Pure bliss—everyone wants to come here, but lucky for us, we’re staying right on-site, so all we have to do is walk downstairs and grab our favorite table.

Booked last minute and couldn’t be happier with our choice of Loft Astoria. The location was unbeatable—right next to major bus and metro lines, making it super easy to explore the city. The view from the floor-to-ceiling windows was stunning, especially at night when we’d just sit and watch the vibrant city life unfold, sometimes staying up way past bedtime. There was a minor issue with self-check-in, but a quick call resolved it instantly—great support. The apartment was warm, spotlessly clean, and well-maintained throughout our stay. As someone who travels with my wife, I’ll admit I was a bit concerned about safety during late-night arrivals and departures, especially in unfamiliar areas. But the keypad entry system and secure internal doors gave us peace of mind. We felt safe not just in the unit, but also throughout our time in Budapest. If you’re looking to immerse yourself in the energy of the city while returning to a modern, clean, and secure home base, this is the perfect spot. We’ll definitely be back on our next visit—thank you for making our trip so memorable.

Staying at Párisi Udvar Hotel Budapest was an absolute delight. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by the elegant Parisian café on the ground floor—perfect for a morning coffee or evening drink.

The doorman even helped with my luggage, which made a great first impression. On my first day, room service brought a little treat—a chocolate surprise that added a sweet touch to my stay. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I slept like a baby. Everything from the ambiance to the attention to detail was top-notch. Location is fantastic too—just a short walk to major sights and public transit. This hotel truly delivers on luxury, comfort, and hospitality. I’d absolutely book again without hesitation.
