Top Eger Hotel Reviews
Hotel Eger & Park
"Some of the features in the leisure pool have not been working for some time."
Indium City Panzió
"Nice place. Close to downtown, so you can just walk. Stayed 2 nights. We enjoyed it."
Merlot Hotel
"The room was large, the beds were comfy, but the bath accessories were very minimal. 2 small pkgs of soap, no shampoo or conditioner, no wash cloths."
Hunguest Hotel Flora

Kulacs Csárda & Panzió
"Very clean and well maintained. Perfect location for the wine tasting. Highly recommend. "
Végvári Hotel Eger
"Great location close to the center of Eger. Immaculate and incredible room. Very affordable price for the room we got."
Hotel Korona Eger
"This hotel was a great place to stay in Eger. The rooms were a bit small, but very clean and everything (shower, intranet, etc) worked well. The beds were very comfortable. And the breakfast in the morning was outstanding. One could easily walk to most parts of Eger from this hotel. I was surprise me to find out they charged for parking -- they said it was to pay for the security system. It sort of threw me -- why did they need a security system if this was a safe area? But it was only 5 euros a night, and it turned out there wasn't enough spaces for one night, so we had to park on the street. We found a spot very close to the hotel and had no issues. The hotel had a mineral bath, but unfortunately we never had a chance to use it. But they provided robes for the baths, which was a nice touch. "
