Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests frequently highlight the hotel's convenient location, with easy access to Keleti station and public transportation, including metro and bus lines operating 24/7. The plentiful breakfast is also a common positive point. Many appreciate the spacious rooms and find them well-equipped, sometimes noting the availability of a kettle. While some guests have mentioned the rooms could use updating, the proximity to attractions like Városliget and the Jewish Quarter, along with the good value for money, makes it a popular choice.
