We stayed at one of the studios that are not at Museum Krt. 39, but at Puskin u. 20. This is 2 blocks further from the bus/subway station at Kalvin ter. You won’t know about this at all, until you make the reservation. Once you do, you will get a message that the studios are in their “annex” building. Annex, in their interpretation is not an extension or addition next door. This is not a big issue, except if you are planning on using the 100E airport express bus when you leave, because Kalvin ter will be about 9 min walk with all your luggage. These studios are in an old and quite decrepit building (seems some renovation is going on) where they bought a large old-style apartment and chopped it up into studio apartments. Our room had a jacuzzi bathtub with plexiglass panels installed to keep the water in if someone takes a shower standing up. This panel makes it difficult to get in the tub, because the opening is on the side next to the sink. We found hand soap, but the bottle of bodywash was almost empty on arrival and there was no shampoo at all. The next day we were asked whether we wanted room cleaning, we said no, but asked for those items to be left outside the door. When we returned, we found a set of clean towels on the bed (so they entered the room, despite us asking not to), and found neither bodywash nor shampoo. Not sure how the request could have been misunderstood. Overall OK stay, just there were these little annoyances.

Didn't have breakfast with my booking. Room was clean and tidy. Only thing is that the only English channels on TV were news.

I had the luxury of spending 6 nights in Budapest and was happy to have stayed on the Buda side at this hotel for a few nights for easy access to the castle, etc. Really charming hotel and lovely, helpful staff. Rooms were clean, nicely laid out, and spacious enough, The hotel was within easy walking distance of a shopping mall and the trams as well as the castle. I even walked to the Citadel from there one day (definitely worth visiting). The #16/#16A buses are right down the street, as is the #5. Between the buses and the trams and the BudapestGo app, it was ridiculously easy and convenient to get around both the Castle district and the Pest side. (I'm someone who enjoys walking and typically eschews public transport in new cities, but the recent heat made public transport essential, and I was really impressed with the reliability of the app and frequency of options.) The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because there were a few things in the room that were broken (e.g., shower spray head not working, kettle lever needing to be held down in order to boil water) that I felt should have been discovered during routine inspections. For sure had I mentioned it earlier during my stay they would have fixed it (like they did the shower head for my friend's room) but I didn't want to be bothered and it was fine.

We had a great stay. The staff were very welcome and very helpful. It was very well located. It is an older building which adds to the character of the place. The air con worked very well during a heat wave. If blinds were left closed during the day, you just need air con in the evening and not all night.

The location of the hotel is ideal, a short walk to Calvin Ter for excellent transport links, and a short walk to the lovely area around Vaci Street and the university. The hotel staff were very welcoming and helpful, and the premium room we booked on the third floor was lovely, spacious, and clean. Our room was tidied every day, and the water station and free coffee are a nice bonus.
