“Godt hotel.”

ENGl.: Nice hotel. Beautiful building. Great location. Everything is within walking distance: shops, attractions, and restaurants. All public transportation is nearby. Great reception staff! Cons: 1. When we checked into our room, it was clean. However, the bathroom floor was dirty, with black hairs of varying lengths scattered across it. And in the corner behind the door, there were black spiders, bugs, or just dirt on the floor. 2. During breakfast in the kitchen, I noticed dirty walls (coffee and food stains) near the tables. DANSK: Dejligt hotel. Smuk bygning. Fantastisk beliggenhed. Alt er inden for gåafstand: butikker, attraktioner og restauranter. Al offentlig transport er i nærheden. Fantastisk receptionspersonale! Ulemper: 1. Da vi tjekkede ind på vores værelse, var det rent. Badeværelsesgulvet var dog beskidt med sorte hår i varierende længder spredt ud over det. Og i hjørnet bag døren var der sorte edderkopper, insekter eller bare snavs på gulvet. 2. Under morgenmaden i køkkenet bemærkede jeg beskidte vægge (kaffe- og madpletter) nær bordene.

“Run down, expensive for price but friendly staff”

We stayed as four adults in two rooms, although the location is close to the river I’d recommend staying further afield as we did the first two nights. The hotel was very run down and not a reflection on the price. The rooms were dated with stained carpet and chairs. The showers ran cold after a minute and the shower trays blocked quickly. It is a noisy location and you can hear other rooms flushing toilets and footsteps at night. This was the same for both rooms which were on different levels and parts of the hotel. Breakfast was quite poor for the price. The staff however were very friendly and helpful, especially the reception staff. If the hotel could have a little love and revamp it would be great place to stay.

“Chip place in great location”

This hotel is an ugly place, with lot's of sets of stairs that is so difficult for moving luggage. Bare rooms, with tiny and dirty shower. We were so shocked, that we left it immediately despite loosing our money. Otherwise, it would completely ruin our vacation. The only good thing to mention is a great location.

“As Arnold would say, I'll be back!”

What can I say? A truly quirky hotel, which appears to be in a graceful state of decline from its obviously grandiose former days, and I loved it! If you want spotless modern rooms, with all mod cons, do yourself a favour and book into a Travelodge or something similar. If you're looking for character, something different perhaps, the City Hotel Matyas IS a good choice. I cannot fault its location, I'm 66 years of age, and I walked everywhere from here. There was a heatwave during my stay, temperatures dancing around the 40c mark, but the locals didn't seem phased at all. Little old ladies tottering around with sun umbrellas, and little old men like me keeping to the shade! Bars, restaurants, shops, everything is on your doorstep. The outward facade of the hotel is fascinating, along with the surrounding buildings, all of which are beautifully lit come nightfall. I have had better breakfasts, but you can eat as much as you desire, and the coffee is from machines, so take it however you want it! Staff attitude varied, but everyone was polite and helpful. Helps if you can perhaps speak a little German, and that goes for lots of places in Budapest. To sum up......I'll be back!

“Great location, cooling. Poor breakfast”

The best parts of the hotel were definitely the ac in the rooms and the location. The location was incredible, we practically walked everywhere and most things you’d want to visit are in a 1-2km radius. Szimpla kert, the Danube boat sightseeings, easy to get to the castle as well as the fisherman’s bastion. The rooms were clean, they had some weird noises, probably from the pipes, but after the first night you barely noticed it. However, the breakfast left much to desire, but there was always enough good things to start your day. The coffee was really sweet and sugary, which some might like, but I do not.
