The property needs renovation. Our toilet was running constantly, also the ac was dripping in the room and made a huge paddle overnight. The staff was friendly The area is not nice for walks. But for 15 minutes you can be at the big shopping mall. Takes 20 mins to the city center.

It is convenient to stay here before departing at Liszt Ferenc Airport, taxi cost is manageable. The room is very nice, however the air condition could not cool it down to a comfortable level in time. There is a system,that no electricity in the room, when is not occupied. Breakfast was very nice, but could not utilize it because it is open at 7am and for air travel you need to be at the Airport early. However, I was able to take out a few item in a container.

Just a couple ofsmall points Room key didnt work when i arrived staff in restaurant over keen to remove unfinished items eg coffee when fetching orher food. The breakfasts were enormous if one really wanted to fill up but it would have been better to decide if wanted all breakfasts at the reduced rate after eatibg the first one. Beer expensive compared to local bars sound like a complaint not really the staff were incredibly helpful and it was very clean

This hotel is within walking distance of the sports arena, and I was attending a concert there. It was reassuring to know that I could exit the concert around 11:30 and not worry about transportation. The one thing that I objected to was that someone in housekeeping had turned off the air conditioning while I was out. I came back to a hot room. I discussed the situation at the front desk, and it didn't happen again.

magnificent hotel, magnificent stay
Conveniently located hotel, close to the stadium and also well served by bus and tram. Very comfortable bed, wide city view, fridge in room, kettle, tea, coffee, safe. Concierge available 24 hours/24 hours. Fruit market, cafeteria, take-away food near the metro. Near the museum of fine arts, accessible by tram 75. To get to the airport, just take the 95 bus and then the 200E bus: for those who have a pass ticket for the public service, it is very convenient and they do not have to buy any other tickets

Area near the property is dirty, concrete steps are old, not safe. I know the property I mentioned does not belong to the hotel,it is city property. Regardless, it would be nice, if it is better condition. Many tourists opinion is that the inner city somewhat better condition, but not outside of the inner city.
