If you're looking for a prime location in Budapest, this place truly delivers. My boyfriend and I stayed for five nights in a spacious room complete with a private library and small kitchen—perfect for relaxing and enjoying some quiet time. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and we loved having a variety of teas available whenever we wanted a cozy moment. As a history enthusiast, I was amazed by how much character and local stories this place holds—Eszter, the host, is incredibly knowledgeable and happy to share fascinating details about the building and its past. It’s rare to find such charm and authenticity in a modern city setting. We had a wonderful stay, and we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique, warm, and memorable experience in Budapest.
The location is excellent—just steps away from the metro, tram, and bus stops, making it super convenient to explore the city. The rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean, offering a comfortable stay. A Lidl supermarket is right next door, perfect for grabbing snacks or essentials. The staff are friendly and welcoming, always with a smile. Breakfast is decent but lacks some cultural touches—no cheese or olives, which would have added more character. Some sausages seemed questionable in terms of ingredients, possibly containing pork, so those avoiding it should be cautious. Still, we stayed two nights and left feeling thoroughly satisfied. Would absolutely recommend and book here again—great value and a fantastic base for exploring Budapest.
I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Hotel Gloria Budapest City Center! The entire experience was flawless. From check-in to checkout, everything ran smoothly.

It’s about a 15-minute walk to the nearest metro station, which might sound far, but the route is pleasant—lined with trees and quiet streets, making it feel more like a scenic stroll than a chore. Once you’re on the train, downtown Budapest is just minutes away. The location strikes a great balance between peace and convenience, and the overall value is excellent. I’d definitely book here again.
My stay at Korona Panzió Budapest was truly pleasant, despite the property being split between two buildings. The front desk is located in one building, while the guest rooms are in another—so if you're relying on GPS, be aware that it might direct you to the wrong entrance. There’s not a very clear sign indicating where reception is, so double-check your directions before heading over. Once I found the right building, everything went smoothly. The staff were friendly and helpful. My room was clean, cozy, and well-maintained—perfect for a quick but comfortable stopover. It’s a great choice if you’re looking for a quiet, convenient base in central Budapest with a warm, home-like feel.

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!

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. Spacious, stylish rooms with a warm welcome that included champagne—such a thoughtful touch. If you're looking for a memorable, well-located, and thoughtfully designed hotel experience in Budapest, this one’s a must-book. You won’t regret it!
Had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel! The place was spotless, and the location is perfect—just a 7-minute walk to the train station, making travel super convenient. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit. I especially appreciated the free water and hot drinks available at the reception, plus the access to an ironing room for our clothes—very thoughtful for travelers. Breakfast was excellent too, with a good variety of options and fresh ingredients. This hotel offers great value for money and exceeded my expectations in every way. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Budapest.
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.
