Terrace is awesome, staff friendly. Vacak the cat is awesome too. This hostel is a great option to spend some time on the island, had a good night sleep and it was clean. Often though staff can be missing from the reception during the stated reception hours, and nearby is more of a party scene with few quality dining options. The 400ft Costa coffee capsules aren't exactly good either, so there is some space for improvement compared to some of the newer hostels in town.

The hostel is located on Margit-sziget Island and can be reached by bus. The reception counter is on the second floor. There is a shared kitchen and an outdoor terrace with a river view.

I was nervous because a customer in the review said there was a booking accident, but it was really good. It was a great view to take a break for a day, all the guests and staff were nice, and the facilities were good value for money. It was especially nice to take a walk in the middle of the park. It was somewhat disappointing that there was no convenience store, but we were able to buy some snacks at the reception. Strongly recommended.

Island hostel Budapest is surrounded by lovely green parks. The terrace of hostel is lovely place to sit and listen to spring birds singing. Hostel is clean and comfy beds, good security and helpful staff. You have to walk 10 minutes to get a tram.

The staff were really kind and welcoming, always ready to help with directions or local recommendations. The rooms were clean and cozy, and I appreciated the personal lockers and overall safety. The common area was a nice place to relax and meet other travelers.

We stayed at the hostel for a week. The hostel's location on the island is ideal. It's a 10-minute walk to town. The island itself is quiet and relaxing. The room was very nicely furnished and clean. The entire staff was also very friendly and helpful. We would love to come back.

The receptionist was extremely unfriendly and lifeless, with a grumpy attitude. When we politely asked for two towels (as he himself had instructed us to do earlier), he sighed heavily as if we were bothering him. When he finally handed them over, we received just two towels for two people—one the size of a hand towel and the other only medium-sized. When I went back to point this out, he replied aggressively, claiming he had given us "two towels, one for each," even though they were clearly different in size. Absolutely disastrous customer service and overall experience. I do not recommend this place based on the rude behavior and lack of basic hospitality.
