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.

Great and spacious appartment, 5 min from the hotel, but at a better location, very central and quiet. All amenities worked great, and the support from the reception was amazing. Excellent AC , which was perfect because we came during a heat wave.

I really enjoyed my stay at Budapest Museum Central. The location couldn’t be better — super close to public transport and just a short walk to the 100E airport bus stop. My room was clean, had high ceilings, and a great view of the National Museum, which I loved waking up to.

The staff were all very friendly, responsive, and always ready to help with recommendations. Special shoutout to Vani — she was so pleasant and easy to talk to, really a great example of what hotel staff should be.

Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting.

The gentelmen who worked on the 2nd and 5th were so polite and helpful. The first gentelmen (my first day) was very understanding and flexible- I showed up a day late, tired, hungry, and without proper payment and he trusted me to do the right thing (and I did). He took the time to reccommend places to see and where to eat (he was right!) and I was able to make the best of my trip. The room was clean, beautiful, and the jaccuzi was the best thing for a long day of exploring. I will absolutely stay there again- it was quiet, lively outside, the archetecture was lovely, and both of the men there were so sweet and empathetic. It is now one of my very favorite places.

Great for families

Family ran business. Contacted me directly by Whatapp, which was good because it meant I had a direct contact with someone, should I have needed it. We were in the studio apartment which is in a different block. Having read previous reviews about the noise from the lift, we needn't have worried as the studios aren't in the in building with the lift. It was a tad difficult to find our apartment initially, but that's probably more a language barrier. Once we found it and worked out which keys were for which door it was a doddle. The apartment was clean tidy, with TV (only English speaking channel CNN not that we watched any TV anyway) and a job, fridge, microwave and washing machine in the kitchenette. The bathroom was massive and the jacuzzi bath was a nice touch. The room was really warm, and the hot water instant. WiFi provided too.This building is situated in a courtyard and there are rules about making a noise. That suited us to a tee as we had a 9year old with us some went back to the apartment after our day of exploration and dinner. Suited us perfectly as Budapest night life isn't really suitable for children. Staff were friendly and you can leave your cases at the reception either before or after check in, for free, which was really useful. I got sent a YouTube video on how to find the reception, which was easy to follow. It's not like a typical hotel, but we found it fabulous. A great experience and we'd highly recommend here for a family break

Bad experience

I had a bad experience at this place. The bell kept on ringing from 12 AM to 1 AM when the reception was closed. The guests who werw woken up had to be the ones to solve the problem. And, in the morning, when I complained to the reception, they just said it never happened before and they were sorry. Nothing in compensation for the inconvenience and doing their job for them. I would have been okay if they even offered a free breakfast or something to compensate our time and comfort.

The place had very high ceilings with not a lot of soundproof. The facilities were pretty old. But, It was very clean and well kept.

Would not check in again here

I would not recommend this accommodation. We stayed there for one night and the heating system was not working, although there were close to zero degrees outside. The hot water was not running when we arrived and we had to call them and wait for half an hour for somebody to arrive to fix it. Then we had the same problem in the morning, but this time they didn't pick up the phone, although it was 8:00 am. Disappointing experience, wouldn't recommend at all.

Opposite National Museum

The hotel is situated opposite the National Museum and was easy to find using the directions provided by the hotel after booking. It's in a convenient location either by bus 100E from the airport, or a quick metro journey to Kalvin Ter from either of the main railway stations.

The entrance is through a large wooden doorway which takes you down a corrdor into a courtyard area. This the centre of an apartment complex, which this hotel has a section of on the second floor. To reach the reception you take a small lift (that has seen better days). The lift does go from exactly the ground floor, but from a few steps up the staircase.

The room we had overlooked the National Museum. It was clean and the windows were very well insulated against traffic noise, and en-suite had a good powerful shower.

The reception staff were mostly welcoming and helpful, however one particular receptionist needed some training on customer service - they tried hard not to speak, make eye contact, or even acknowledge you, and when they did they were totally unhelpful.

Plenty of restaurants nearby and easy walking to some of the main sites in Budapest.

Beware when booking this hotel as we were given the studios which were a good ten minute walk from the main hotel. The room was clean, quiet and spacious but having to check in at the main hotel and then walk to the studios wasn’t what we expected. Wouldn’t come here again.

The hotel was in a perfect location - we were able to walk everywhere. The room was spacious and we had a great view of the National Museum.
It is a bit confusing upon arrival. There are a series of doors you have to enter (and need to buzz the hotel) before reaching the front desk. This could have been explained before arrival. The staff was courteous. You will also need to bring your own toiletries.
Overall - we enjoyed the hotel!

The wrought iron gates and balcony are very beautiful, and most things in Budapest aren’t further than a 20 min walk. Very quiet and laid back feel. I enjoyed my stay here!

It’s not a real hotel. It’s airbnb

This is a fraud. It’s absolutely not a hotel. This is like an Airbnb stay. At Hotels.com reservation, you will be tricked to believe that it’s a real hotel due location on the map. Once you check in, they will ask you to pick up a key at the “almost look like” hotel front desk then you need to walk into a small quiet side street (15 min away) for the actual room. The reason we chose this hotel because we were robbed in Berlin before so we tried to stay on a Main Street. Unfortunately this is not a real hotel and the location is not real.

Great Location, Comfortable Stay, Friendly Staff

Great stay at the heart of Budapest! Unfortunately on the first day, there was a plumbing issue which forced us to be re-accommodated elsewhere, but for the remainder of the stay, the staff offered us free breakfast as compensation which was awesome.

I enjoyed my stay here last year so came back again. For the price you could not get a nicer place to stay. I like the fact that there are only a few rooms on one floor of the building, so it doesn't feel like a busy hotel, and I felt like I was a local for a few days! I would recommend this hotel to anyone who, like me, wants a clean, comfortable room at an affordable price, but doesn't need 5 star service.

Good location within walking distance of everythin

Check in is about 500m from apartment. Got an email the day before saying we would need to check in at another location about 500m the other way from the original checkin, which as we had pre booked a shuttle to the hotel was very inconvenient. No iron in the room which meant a 500m trip the next day to get an iron from the reception, no such thing as an ironing board apparently. Apart from that no problems and would definitely recommend

Nice hotel opposite the National Miseum

Unassuming hotel ideally situated for exploring downtown Budapest. Minutes away from tram stop, buses and metro at Kalvin Square. Hop On Hop Off bus stop opposite too. Bus to and from the airport stop at Kalvin Square too. All easy to use.
The hotel itself was basic but just what we were wanting. Hot drinks available in the reception area, and we had a complimentary bottle of lovely white wine in our room on arrival. Very pleasant staff, who were helpful with restaurant recommendations and reassurances that the public transport was easy to use.
From the outside it doesn't look like your normal hotel, small signage plaque on the wall. Quite quirky entrance hall and inner courtyard. Our room was huge with views across the road to the museum. Everything was spotless. Large shower with very hot water. Very comfortable big bed.
Will not hesitate to recommend.

Great hotel, close to get around

I stayed in the apartments that were off site to the main hotel. They were very spacious and had a kitchen and jacuzzi. Close walk to the Jewish quarters - really great area, and not too far from the city centre. Check in was great, staff were very helpful. The only downside was a damp smell in the foyer of the apartments and a slight damp smell in th bathroom. Other than that, good value for money.

Five-star hotel but ...

Not sure why a five-start hotel cannot figure out to make a shower work. In spite of the user's best efforts, the bathroom floor will be flooded. I even went into the bathroom first thing in the morning and found a puddle of new water on the floor. In addition, be prepared for your shower to have alternating hot and cold water. You will be scalded and chilled from time to time. I don't get it. Cheap hotels have mastered these problems.

Hotel Feedback

Really well located to explore major sights of Budapest, just a little difficult to locate initially, as signage subtle, given the Hotel takes up part of second floor in a privately owned block (just a small buzzer to the left of some very large entrance doors. However, once in, all worked well.

Good Location in District 8

This is not a typical hotel with a ground-floor lobby, bar, etc. If you're looking for simplicity, cleanliness, helpful staff and location it is, however, worthy of consideration. I arrived at 2 am which made the lack of an obvious entrance daunting on an empty major street in Budapest. If you know what you're looking for and read the directions, then it's easy to buzz the desk and gain entrance into the building and make your way up a dim stairway to the 2nd (or 3rd in USA) floor. After you've checked in, your key fob will get you in and out of the building with ease. There are plenty of restaurants, coffee shops and pubs nearby - Ráday Utca is off nearby Kalvin Square and has the best variety for dining if you don't want to walk far. The Central Market and city centre are no more than a 5-7 minute walk from the hotel and the National Museum is across the street.

Great stay; great hotel!

A great location with trams and metro very close. Breakfast at nearby restaurant - 5 mins walk - was excellent with 6 choices.Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Coffee/tea free in lobby and we had a complimentary bottle of wine in room on arrival. Room was fine and had great view at front onto road and across to the museum and its grounds. No problem finding hotel or getting in and out; don't be put off by reports that there is a dark staircase as lights come on automatically and there is a lift if you're worried about stairs. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay again.

Friendly, clean, and comfortable!

The stay was great! I arrived very late but that was no problem for checking in. Getting inside the building was a little confusing at first (there's a key pad and you then have to go through another locked gate with a keypad once inside the building), but once I was inside the hotel the woman working behind the counter was incredibly friendly and helpful. It's a rather small hotel with only a few rooms, so I felt like I had great individualized service. There was tea available for me when I arrived. The room itself was spacious and comfortable. It was a bit too warm for my liking when I arrived, but opening a window for a bit made the temperature perfect. There was a wonderful view of the museum across the street. The bathroom was incredibly clean and spotless! The water pressure in the shower was good. Breakfast was served at a restaurant about a 5 minute walk down the street, but it was excellent. The meal included a ton of food (I couldn't even finish it all) and the service was great. While the hotel is situated on a main road, it was still very quiet at night. I got a great night's sleep and would recommend the hotel to a friend.

Comfortable stay

Centrally located, reasonably priced and within walking distance of major attractions. After one day though decided on hop on bus which stops across the road because of scale of city. Room spacious with massive headroom, underfloor heating and massive comfy bed. Bit of a walk upstairs through old building which you need to buzz initially to gain entry. Friendly and helpful at reception though no tea making in the room. You need to go to reception for this and water is just tepid. Did encounter a problem on final day as we could nt enter building to retrieve luggage despite buzzing for 20 min. Joined by another couple later and were only saved by someone entering building for another floor. Receptionist had n t heard buzzer??All well in end though and we got to airport. Breakfast served couple of streets away and was adequate with some choice but don t ask for another tea or juice as you ll be charged for it.

I stayed 3 nights at this hotel and was happy I chose it for many reasons. The location was good, I walked most places but it was also convenient for catching trams and metro. The reception staff were all lovely and very helpful. My room was large, comfortable and very clean with a view of the museum across the road out of the window. I could help myself to free tea and coffee any time in the reception area. I liked that it didn't really feel like a hotel, it's only a few rooms on one floor of a building so I felt a bit like a local for a few days. The only negative thing was that the walls must be thin, because an inconsiderate, noisy guest in the next room woke me up. Luckily I had earplugs .

very traditional hotel with Hungarian feel & look

this hotel was basic, clean, very central to the city. It was not a modern hotel and this gave a very Hungarian feel to our trip. Had we stayed in a well know hotel it could have felt like we were in any city but this was authentic and we loved it. Staff were very very helpful and quick to deal with any issue. We had a problem with our airport taxi and it was not bother for them to sort it out for us

Nice Hotel, Strange Entrance

The only issue with this hotel was that there is no obvious way to get into it. It's inside of an apartment complex, and the only way I got in was because an old strange man living in this building was smoking a cigarette outside. He was kind enough to let me in but he didn't know any English, and walking into the hotel complex was extremely strange and I felt a bit threatened. Other than that, once I got inside everything was fine (because I got the key). They need to hire a door person or have some sort of better protocol for entering the hotel (there were no signs anywhere pointing to the hotel or even a sign outside), because for a solo traveler this felt like a dangerous situation.

There has to be better than this place

The entry buzzer is difficult to see on a wet night. There was a delay in answering the buzzer. I felt unsafe. The lift is extremely old. The room itself was clean and comfortable. I was assured my luggage could be stored safely. It was left in the open at the reception desk passage. I returned for my luggage to find nobody at reception or close by it. Luggage could easily have been stolen.
