Top Szechenyi Istvan Square Hotel Reviews

Danubius Hotel District V

8/10 Good

"Overall great hotel for short stay. Modern. Great business location. Under new management that is more cost conscious. Breakfast is great. Rooms are small and the double bed is really just 2 tiny twins next to each other. Cheap ikea style. Not comfortable at all. I don’t think an American king would even fit in the room. Ok for 1 night stay. I pre-paid for 5 nights. Had to leave a day really due to a flight cancellation and they refused to reimburse me for the last night. Overall nice basic economy hotel but next time I’m staying somewhere else."

Park Plaza Budapest

8/10 Good

"Ccçççcccccccccccccccccccccccvvvvvvvvvv"

Mamaison Hotel Chain Bridge Budapest

8/10 Good

"The hotel staff is very good. Helpful and goes above and beyond. However, I took one star out because we had an unfortunate incident with no heat in our room. It was very cold and made it difficult to sleep. Only after two days a maintenance guy who knew what is what appeared and, while could not fix the thermostat, brought a space heater to the room (earlier some of staff claimed not to have one). We also did not like the unreasonable difference between ordering breakfast as part of booking the room (7 Euro per person) and the price without prior order (36.5 Euro per person). After eating breakfast at the hotel once and being surprised by the charge, we had breakfast in subsequent days in several of the outstanding coffee shops in the hotel’s vicinity. Despite these two small issues, the hotel is lovely. Small and very un-American (no large lobby, tiny elevators, a joke of a gym), we enjoyed our stay. Mostly because the staff was so friendly and welcoming. Also the location is superb."

Mamaison VIBE Hotel Downtown Budapest

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were clean and staff were very friendly and helpful. It is also in a good location and you don't have to go out to dine if you don't want to."

Aurea Ana Palace by Eurostars Hotel Company

10/10 Excellent

"Staying at the Áurea Ana Palace Hotel feels like stepping into another era — a time of imperial grandeur, timeless elegance, and exquisite European craftsmanship. More than just a five-star hotel, it is a beautiful reminder of Budapest’s Austro-Hungarian heritage, where historic architecture and refined interiors blend effortlessly with modern comfort. Just a short distance from the majestic Danube, the hotel offers more than a luxurious stay — it offers a connection to the history, culture, and romance of this extraordinary city."

NEXTO DORMERO Hotel Budapest

8/10 Good

"Bel emplacement avec un système de transport efficace à proximité. Les chambres sont modernes et lumineuses. Personnel agréable et courtois prêt à aider. On a beaucoup apprécié de pouvoir laisser nos valises après le check-out. Le seul bémol a été que le wifi n’a pas fonctionné lors de notre séjour, ce qu’on a trouvé un peu plate. Et ce sans espoir de que cela soit arrangé"

Hilton Budapest

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was beautiful and the location was awesome! So glad that we chose it!"

Four Seasons Gresham Palace

10/10 Excellent

"The room, staff, and restaurant was amazing. Sophie at the front desk was especially helpful and kind. We would definitely stay at the Four Seasons again."

Mercure Budapest City Center Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location and helpful staff !"
