“Nice hotel”

Location is great, near city center and most importantly to me, the Danube. Our room was looking to the inner yard so there wasn't any noise from busy streets. It was clean. There are tram and metro stations in a few minutes walking. Staying in the room wasn't our priority but it was good. Size is ok, bathroom also, mattress is a bit soft for my taste but for two nights it was ok. We walked a lot during the day so falling asleep wasn't problem. Breakfast is very good and the staff was helpful. Overall, good value for money.

“Weekend away”

Lovely hotel friendly welcome. Great value for money. We had a double/twin room. Our only complaint is that we ended up with a twin room when we wanted a double so please make sure you request what you want. Room was very clean and spacious with a mini fridge, tv, hairdryer, kettle and tea and coffee facilities

“Great stat”

Great location and perfect room. Breakfast was very basic but you get what you pay for. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful I did not catch her name but she was there daily.

“Very disappointed”

we had booked for 4 nights at the city ring hotel. As soon as we went to the room, we saw that they had given us a room with 2 single beds. while the agency's notes were double beds, because we were a couple. we went to the reception and asked them to change our room. The receptionist said that it was impossible, they could only join the beds, of course I did not accept because I had paid the money for a double bed. I got angry with the situation, even though it was their fault, the receptionist THREATENED me that she could kick me out of the hotel. There was no manager there to talk to and resolve the situation. However, our agency made it possible to change the room, and as a result it was again an improvised double bed, creating a large dividing line in the middle, very uncomfortable About cleanliness... the sheets were clean, butrrrr THE DUVETS INSIDE THEM WERE YELLOW, maybe old, maybe unwashed. had to pay extra money to change the towels, inconceivable. The sheets were changed every 6 days. Very lukewarm breakfast. I will return to Budapest again, but ABSOLUTELY NOT to this hotel.
