Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit
Pros:

Ein kleines angenehmes Hotel in einer Großstadt wo das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis gestimmt hat. Wir haben nicht mehr erwartet und dadurch wurden wir auch nicht enttäuscht, sind zufrieden abgereist.

Cons:

Leider ist das Hotel schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen und müsste mal ein bisschen renoviert werden.

In die Jahre gekommenes Hotel mit kleinen Zimmern, aber guter Lage.
Pros:

Freundliches Personal und zentrale Lage (ca. 10 Minuten vom Bahnhof Keleti entfernt). Das Frühstücksbuffet ist für ein 3 Sterne-Hotel ganz gut.

Cons:

Das Zimmer ist recht klein und die Klimaanlage gibt auch im ausgeschalteten Zustand Geräusche von sich. Insgesamt wirkt das Hotel renovierungsbedürftig.

Bien pero mejorable
Pros:

La habitación era decente, las camas estaban bien y no tenían mal espacio.

Cons:

Si vais a reservar habitación familiar, tened en cuenta que una de ellas tiene UN RUIDO constante del aire acondicionado, aunque esté apagado suena muy fuerte. Pedimos que nos cambiaran la habitación porque era imposible dormir y nos la pudieron cambiar porque la otra estaba libre, pero si no nos hubiéramos tenido que quedar en esa. La otra habitación familiar estaba bien y sin ruido.

Pros:

Location

Cons:

Unfortunately, the breakfast did not meet our expectations. The food served was cold, and although breakfast was advertised as available until 10:00 a.m., the selection was already very limited around 9:00 a.m. Refilling the dishes was extremely slow or did not happen at all. In addition, the tables were not cleared on a regular basis, which made it difficult for newly arriving guests to find a place to sit.

Could be better
Pros:

The location and staff were great. The breakfast was ok.

Cons:

The furniture and walls were quite old and really need some refreshment. The ventilation was very loud and annoying. The double bed was not double, but two separate beds with a huge gap in between.

Будапеща и красивият син Дунав
Pros:

Закуската беше разнообразна и вкусна. Пространството, в което тя се поднасяше, беше естетически оформено, много поддържано и чисто и озвучено с тиха приятна музика.
Стаята бе достатъчно голяма, с удобни легла.
Персоналът беше любезен и отзивчив.

Cons:

Нямаме забележки.

Cons:

Hotel vendégei fölöttünk 2 éjszaka kritikán alul viselkedtek, hangoskodtak. Recepció értesítve lett. Állítólagos intézkedés után?! 1 órán keresztül folytatódott.

Nice location, overall good hotel, but overpriced.
Pros:

Location was perfect. Very close to BRitish Museum. Well connect to Metro lines but also possible to walk to main points in London. Quiet street.

Cons:

Price is not completely worth it. As explicity said, there is no AC or fans in the room, but I believe in summer it might get super warm. A bit pricy for what it offers. Although overall is a fair hotel.
