Excellent Location. Great staff. Very helpful with planning our stay. Walking to all the major buildings. Breakfast was adequate.
Would stay here again.
Thank you very much for your hospitality. I loved the hotel’s location and how comfortable it was. Thank you to the staff who assisted us; everyone was very kind and welcoming.
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Budapest! The receptionist, Vivi, was absolutely amazing, always greeting us with a warm smile and making us feel truly welcome.
The breakfast was excellent, and the entire hotel was spotless. The location is perfect, right in the city center and within easy reach of everything.
We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Budapest. We felt so comfortable and well taken care of, and we will definitely be coming back on our next visit!
Thank you, Vivi, & Rhakash for making our stay extra special! ❤️
Location is great, close to public transport. Breakfast was delicious.
The young Filipino man tending the breakfast area was friendly and polite. He made sure we had everything we needed.
Very well located the staff were always willing to help. The break fast menú was nice. The only problem was with the smell of one of the room we stayed
Great location. Aesthetically designed large rooms with high ceilings makes it feel very spacious. Modern decor including usb connection points makes it very convenient. Staff was extremely helpful
The Sophia Palace is a lovely hotel just across the street from the Great Market Hall. We stayed in a deluxe double room. Spacious room, clean, modern and all the usual facilities you would expect ie safe, coffee and fridge. Gorgeous bathroom with a large walk-in shower. The hotel staff were all really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was downstairs below street level. A good selection of foods and drinks. It was quite a small area. There is a courtyard area where you can sit outside upstairs.
The only downside is that there is no traditional bar, only a small pop up one at reception, and no sitting area indoors when you come back from a long day.
It is a beautiful hotel with the perfect location. It’s right near the bridge and in front of the market. And behind you is the mains streets leading to vatsi utsa. The hotel is clean and smells great. And the staff are very friendly.
we stayed 3 nights 4 aduls (a familly) in 0ne room.
we liked the location near the big market in vaci uca street, the well decorated and clean room, the praivecy in the hotel, the helpfull and kindly service from the staff, we took only one breakfast which nice and tasty.
what didnt fits us was the fact that there was no separation at all between the people , the fact that the door of the bath and toilet room was transparent the metresses were too soft it was'nt comfourtable. also the television was not posibble to watch for the 2 persons that sleep on the sopha.
I truelly recommend this sweet boutique hotel a especially for couples.
the location is great and we loved the modern decorete and the helpfull and nice staff.
Perfect location, historic building newly renovated with nice huge room with high celling.Combination of historical and modern style. Friendly staff and clean room.
The hotel was really lovely and the staff were fantastic! Location was really good, everything easy to get to.
The only thing that I didn’t like was that check in at 3pm is late when you have a very early flight and check out was early at 11 am when we didn’t fly until 10 pm. There was a bathroom to freshen up but a place to shower would have been really appreciated as it was an incredibly hot day with nowhere to shower before heading to the airport but this is genuinely the only thing I would have changed. We really enjoyed our stay here. Thank you to all the staff that went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
We absolutely loved the room and the location was perfect. Even the AC was wonderful. The only thing that we found was that the drapes didn’t completely cover the windows on the sides. Still, because we were up and out early with site seeing it was no biggie.
Great location. The room was very nice and new but the bed mattress was very firm and we woke up with back pains everyday. It would have been nice if there was washing machines on site.
