This is one of the most beautiful, clean , welcoming, gorgeous places I’ve ever stayed in my life and I’ve traveled the entire world and stayed at 5 star resorts and hotels. Never mind that this is a hostel, don’t let that little tittle fool you. This place is situated in a beautiful park surrounded by delicious restaurants, an outdoor movie theatre where you can order drinks. It’s literally a compound of cuteness. The trains are right there, it’s just such a lovely place to stay and I feel so lucky to have been there. The vibes are so positive , there’s even a nice cat that freely roams the property and interacts w the guests. Everything about it is a charming treat and I am excited to return when I come back to Budapest..

Amazing place and staff but current situation

Hostel was amazing but the fact I had to walk around everytime I left the hostel a hour and a half because the entrance closer to the place was closed by police and they made us walk round really ruined my stay because everytime I had to do this trip it. Took 1 hour 30 mins and imagine I just want to get my jacket and this makes me not want to go back out. I go out and come back 4 times that’s 6 hours traveling just to get in your place of stay

A stone would make a better receptionist

It would be hard to find more disinterested and inhospitable staff than the one's that work here if you tried. It's a pity because it used to be a great hostel

Der Ausblick auf die Donau beim Frühstück und die Lage mitten auf der parkähnlichen Insel sind unschlagbar . die ganze Nacht verkehrende Straßenbahnlinie 4 bzw 6 fährt im 3 Minuten Takt und man Wurst von der Haltestelle nur noch ca 8 Minuten zu Fuß bis zum Hostel laufen.

Es gibt eine tolle Terrasse mit Blick auf die Donau auf der man fantastisch frühstücken kann. Die Lage ist ganz wunderbar. Ohropax sollte man natürlich nicht vergessen, da an der Rezeption schon morgens laut Musik läuft. Menschen mit Katzenhaarallergie sollten den Manager darum bitten die Katze aus der Küche zu verscheuchen.
