Great luxury hotel
Modern. Stylish. Got a free upgrade in the room and got welcomed with a free welcoming drink and some desserts. The receptionist Benedeck Para (hopefully got the name right) was very courteous, friendly and helpful with all our requests upon checking in and also upon further requests. Breakfast was very crowded after 9am. We also got extended late check out. Location is okay, need to take bus/metro to go to Buda Castle, Parliament and other major attractions. Lot of cafes and resturants around to dine in. On our last day, the air condition stopped working, but the hotel staff gave us a fan and opened our windows

The hotel was nice. The staff was friendly. Our room, however, was very dusty as if no one had stayed in there for quite some time. We were never provided the free bottle of wine.

It was my first time visiting Budapest and I am glad I chose this hotel as my place to stay. The staff were beyond friendly and helpful. The hotel is well kept and the rooftop pool spa was a nice cherry on top. The location is also perfect as it is very easy to walk to nearby shops, restaurants and bars
