5-Star Hotels in Budapest

Excellent hotel, the best stop on our Budapest trip. The hotel's service was impeccable, and breakfast was fantastic. A perfect journey! The hotel pool and restaurant also have great ambiance.

We chose this accommodation for a family trip, as it was a great escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The cleanliness and friendly staff were top-notch. However, in cold weather, traveling by train or public transportation from the airport can be a bit inconvenient. If you prefer the quiet of the Buda area, this is a great choice.

The front desk staff were quite incompetent. Check-in took forever, and then my friend's room key didn't work. Another friend found a welcome card for someone else on their table upon entering their room. My room was a corner room, which they didn't even ask about, but they were very pushy about getting us to upgrade. We upgraded, and the service was still terrible. Then, at check-out, we thought it would be quick, but a young woman struggled for ages before calling over her colleague. We thought there might be an extra charge, but then she somehow pulled out someone else's room cards, claiming they didn't match ours. Couldn't she just ask us what our room number was? We gave her two room cards, and she somehow ended up with three! We were in a hurry to catch a flight and told them so, but she still fumbled around for ages. Plus, the kettle in the room was broken, and when we asked for a replacement, that one was also broken... It was an ordeal all afternoon; we couldn't even take an afternoon nap. I can only say the hotel is all show and no substance; the interior is rotten. Also, it seems like they sprayed a lot of disinfectant in the room when cleaning, and the windows don't open for ventilation...

This was my first time staying at this hotel. The location is excellent, just steps from the food street, with Chinese and Western restaurants nearby, including a Michelin-starred restaurant. Various attractions are also within walking distance. The hotel was newly renovated in 2022, and all the facilities are very good. The rooms are spacious, and the front desk staff are very warm and friendly—I would have given them full marks for service! However, on my last day at breakfast, I got burned by the food tongs. The tongs were extremely hot and placed on the food plate (I guess the tongs and food had just been taken out of the oven). This shouldn't happen in a five-star hotel.

Among the riverside hotels, this one looks a bit dated from the outside, but don't let that deter you. The rooms have been renovated in the past two years, the lobby is very spacious, and the breakfast offers a wide variety of choices. The Danube river cruise pier is right downstairs, which is incredibly convenient. The only downside is that it can get a bit noisy below the hotel, and unfortunately, the front desk couldn't do much about it when I called. The hotel isn't too far from the main attractions, and overall, my experience was quite good. I booked a room with river and castle views, and the hotel provided a great room. They even delivered Chinese tea to my room upon check-in, which shows their thoughtfulness towards guests. Photo one shows the river and Buda Castle view from my hotel room, and photo two is the Marriott Hotel as seen from the cruise ship.

We only paid $150 per night. You pay what you get. This hotel located in a dodgy area.. right next to a homeless shelter….

I enjoyed their Door to door cocktail as well.

The idea of staying in a castle monastery is appealing, especially if you prefer a quieter side of Budapest. The room was pleasant, but not overly luxurious. The breakfast was simple, and the music was too loud when I woke up. The location wasn’t convenient for me, and the monastery experience didn’t live up to my expectations. I stayed on the other side of Pest and had a much better time.

Wonderful hotel with an amazing location. Radisson Basilica is hitting all the right things - newly opened and modern but also with a great staff, especially the reception. One thing I must say, cleaning team is also excellent and professional

Check-in time was flexible; we arrived early and were immediately given a room to rest, which was a huge plus for those arriving on early flights. Our standard room was on the 5th floor, a typical hotel room setup with good natural light and plenty of sunshine. The mattress was incredibly comfortable. In contrast, the bathroom had a much more distinctive design. A highlight was the small spa pool on the basement level, which had a unique vibe, wasn't crowded, and was very relaxing. It's complimentary for guests. While the hotel breakfast didn't have a huge selection, everything was relatively tasty, especially the Hungarian baked eggs, which were exactly to my liking. The staff were friendly and helpful. Recommended! PS: There was a wedding party on the day we checked in, and the music was quite loud at night, but fortunately, we couldn't hear it much from the 5th floor.
