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.

Friendly staff, close to all the transit options, and quick & easy check in/out. Room was huge with tall ceilings and a big window! I loved that this didn’t feel like a hotel. Walls are a little thin, glad I had a white noise machine to help get me off to sleep. Definitely will stay here again!

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.

Good location

Room recently refurbished although hot and cold taps connected wrong way round but lots of space and comfortable huge bed. Great central situation and close to metro/bus if needed. Shower over bath too low for anyone over 5'2" and also soaks bathroom floor however careful you use it. Phone number on hotels.com not valid and reception not open when stated. Air con also seemed to come on and off as it pleased even when not on auto settings.

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
