"Location excellent for those wishing to stay out of the main city but still very close to it - it is only 10 mins by public transport to main shopping area. Breakfast buffet extensive and tasty. Room decor good but in need of a coat of paint in some areas. Will definitely stay here again."

"Beautiful hotel, even though modern design is disgusting and ruins the shoreline of Budapest. Right on Danube, walking distance to the center of Pest, and right across the bridge to Buda. Good service, wonderful terrace. Great location. Definitely a recommendation."
