Upon arrival the situation was stressful with very little room for bus offload, common at many European sites. We were 'bag-dragging' our own and the three valets trying to assist were quite overwhelmed. I dragged from curb to door, but no one assisted, so then I dragged inside and waited a minute or so. Group was queueing at check-in so I grabbed a baggage cart and placed my bags upon it - I would drag NO more, and where are the valets? My physician in permitting the journey stated: ONLY valets! Bit of a snarl there, as it developed. The Duty Manager, Mr. Stiller, was a bit upset that I had swiped a cart and admonished me, but he proved after a brief discussion to be a fine man and very attentive to the guests as well as an enthusiastic supporter for the earnings rights of the valet staff! Permit me: "I was not 'stiffing' the valets;" to which I must add: "Where were they?" Mr Stiller, thank you for your patience and kindness.I have spinal osteoarthritis in its 40th season of testing my patience and resolve, with scoliosis and and a little spinal vertical axis and frontwise twisting added in just to humor the fates. I also am all too often quite short-of-breath as a quadruple bypass heart patient. (My main airport security issue is convincing the loyal security guards that I am not really a pharmaceutical salesman on a commercial venture. I do have many, many bottles!). Again - I brake for valets!I WILL travel the world until I drop. I have lived or travelled and stayed on various sites across the oceans from my treasured American home for about eight years of my life in countries from Panama to Taiwan, including a dozen European, and Australia, as well. I value the experiences of every country. This now includes beautiful ancient and modern Budapest. Now the hotel. Staff: very efficient and functional in my contacts. Always 'Can Do' in my experience. Services quite adequate, and food for all meals from very satisfying (breakfast) to inspired (dinner). The Tuna Salad is spectacular. I was disappointed the restaurant got so little evening use, but that is the fate of a 'base camp' hotel from which the explorers set off.Improvements: There is nothing to be done for the settled infrastructure of the midget bathrooms. HOWEVER, attention to the tub/shower is reasonable and possible. The shower curtain should NOT be fabric only, and should be bottom-weighted, and the support bar MUST be curved in an arc outward away from the tub. Showering is maddening. The downflow creates a minor vacuum pulling the cutain ONTO you. That is economically fixable. I would NOT repeat my booking there until that simple issue is resolved - for those with a ponder or wonder about the comment, go take a shower, If it was my room only, do so in 527. End of comment. Worst shower design I have ever seen, though clean and in good condition. And I do mean globally. And that includes alarge tent and temporary piping system in Ingolstadt GE that I used for a week. It was a luxury compared to 527.Other than that, at the price point, it is a good-very good place for being in Pest. The travel options are many and the sights rich, the people newly free. All said, it was good.

I booked this hotel with the "warranty" of booking a Radisson hotel, always great, but this time I was unfortunately quite disappointed.The hall looks nice, the lobby bar offers enjoyable space and drinks at prices few higher than in the rest of Budapest, as it's normal at Hotel Lobby.The Rooms are quite outdated, furnitures show their ages quite clearly and, the most important, they're noisy. Would suggest a (big) investment on new isolated windows because the payback of a perfect central location is a lot of traffic and noise almost 24/7.Quite disappointing the breakfast service, both in terms of quality of food, both in terms of quality of service (rolls were not fresh and I had to wait several minutes before to have a free table, even if the room was nothing but full, all tables were simply not cleaned after previous clients); together with a price which puts it much in higher position compared to "cheap" Budapest, I'd rather reccomend to look for better breakfast outside.Again, I feel very sorry for Radisson which always got my trustness and full happiness, but this time it was really not enough!

We stayed here in Budapest with a tour group. The location was perfect, centrally located and within a 30 min walk of almost every site to see, public transportation everywhere as well. The free internet was a nice plus as well, and the front desk staff were accommodating and helpful (we arrived at 11:30am after a 10 hr flight and although no rooms were available, they got us a room within 30 mins). The concierge also helped with dinner reservations one night.However... we did have some problems unfortunately. The room was not that clean and had an old 80s decor. Although the shower was strong and hot, the towels were very thin which is surprising for a hotel that's suppose to be "luxury".The breakfast buffet in the morning was also not appealing so I would recommend exploring some of the other eating establishments around the area. Overall, it was OK but not what we were expecting.

This hotel is not the prettiest but it one of the best and central locations!It was very reasonably priced and decent hotel. I would stay here again.Hotel Staff were very friendly and helpful.Great value for Money, even for a last minute booking.

It's an alright hotel. The Other Radissons in the world we had the pleasure to stay at we're much nicer, but its still alright in a great location with all kind of public transportation nearby. Positives - real nice staff at the garage, iron in the room, fridge... Needed to have the feather pillows exchanged for no allergic ones, our request was accommodated in a fairly short time, dudes for that!And the things that weren't all that great at all: wifi wifi and once again wifi! We've had constant trouble with the Internet connection, a basic thing when one is traveling for business. When asking for another code the receptionist told us to get downstairs and fetch it from him. At 430 am? We didn't really think so. Room service didn't do as great, empty plastic bottles were left all over the place, so was the dust on top of the fridge, but overall the rooms were kept clean.The bathroom was small, the windows didn't really block out the street noise, but we were tired enough to not to let that bother us. The interior of our room was pretty 90's but kept in shape alright.This is yet another one of those hotels, where a littleinvestment, some motivation and effort from management and staff could get the place bk to the top. The potential is there.
