Pros:

Very helpful, attentive staff. Spacious rooms, very quiet at night whilst sleeping. Housekeeping staff were brilliant, very punctual with room requests. The location was fantastic too. Breakfast was plentiful with good choices of food and beverages. The pool area was pleasant but very busy.

Cons:

No dislikes at all.. If I was to be picky, I'd say the pillows on the bed are too soft, we had to ask for extra pillows.

Great trip
Pros:

I came to Budapest for work but stayed an extra day. I was very impressed with the hotel. I was in room 537 which was spacious and quiet. The bed and shower were fantastic. I used the sauna and pool and found them clean and relaxing. The main selling point here though is the staff. They are incredibly friendly and professional. I would suggest this hotel quite highly. The hotel has an interesting history and there are wonderful restaurants close by. My favourite being the Hummusbar, within walking distance of the hotel.

A very warm, welcoming hotel near the bustling areas of Pest.
Pros:

The staff were exceptionally helpful and professional. There was a spa and outdoor pool, and the location was very handy to the main area of Pest.
I was in need of printing documents, which I was able to do free of charge.
The breakfast was very good with a wide selection of foods.
Very comfortable beds and really clean:-)

Cons:

Sadly, complimentary water was only given on our arrival, so we had to continually go out to buy more water.
There was only shower gel in the bathroom; so again, needed to go buy conditioner.
There was always a very long wait for tyre lift.
