Top Szentendre Hotel Reviews
Prestige Hotel Budapest
"Beautiful hotel in a great, central location. The staff is very friendly and helpful."
Aurea Ana Palace by Eurostars Hotel Company
"Beautiful hotel and great location!"
Park Plaza Budapest
"Very nice hotel, the location is spectacular! My only reason for 4 stars is a little bit of repairs needed, but overall a great experience!"
Corinthia Budapest
"Gorgeous property . 99/100 My only small complaint was the maintenance man had to come to stop the water from recirculating in the bathroom but he was there within 5 minutes and it was fixed Gorgeous property, delicious breakfast, lobby was stunning, staff was extremely attentive and did everything they could to make things simple for the guests. As an American we are told that Europeans aren’t always the friendliest - this is simply not the case - the people of Budapest and the hotel staff did everything they could to inform you about the city and the best places to visit etc … from what I was told Johnny Depp was actually at the hotel on Tuesday . It was a great time and I would highly recommend rebooking"
Danubius Hotel Astoria City Center
"This property, once outstanding, now shows signs of wear and would benefit from targeted maintenance. The staff remains exceptionally helpful and attentive throughout the stay. Guest rooms are spacious and furnished in a classic style; however, the carpets require more thorough cleaning, and the air-conditioning units need better calibration to cope effectively with summer heat. Several minor, easily addressable issues currently prevent this hotel from delivering an excellent overall experience. With modest improvements, the property could readily return to its former high standard."
Moxy Budapest Downtown
"First and foremost the front desk was extremely helpful as we arrived super early and they allowed us to check in after our long flight. That in itself made the stay wonderful. Secondly the location couldn’t be better. It was right in the middle of all the excitement and very central on the Pest side of town. But if anyone is looking for quiet and calm, this should not be your choice. I would highly recommend it to everyone who is visiting Budapest for a few days and want to explore and experience the city."
Elisabeth Downtown Apartments by FirstHost
"We were really pleased with the apartment we booked it exceeded our expectations and the photos on the website do not do it justice. The location is excellent too. We had a small problem with one item and within minutes of reporting to receptionist the repair person arrived to fix it. We have recommended the apartments to many people since returning from holiday. Big thank you for helping make our trip so comfortable."
Kempinski Hotel Corvinus Budapest
"The hotel has a nice location. We had an inconvenient and it was that the electricity failed in the entire floor for about an hour."
IntercityHotel Budapest
"Hotel muy bien ubicado, cerca y a pasos de transporte público. Cama cómoda y muy limpio. Área segura, con opciones de cafés, y restaurantes variados."
