Excellent placed hotel, ideally located within walking distance of City Park- which is absolutely stunning. Also a bus stop directly across road from hotel and Keleti rail station within ten minutes, which serves as a perfect transport hub for exploring Budapest and beyond. Hotel staff are incredible! They couldn’t be more helpful and are always willing to answer any questions you might have. Lovely open space on arrival where you can relax and enjoy a coffee. Room was warm and cosy and serves its purpose. Breakfast was outstanding! Pastries, cereal and fresh fruit- also selection of cheese and hams. Great coffee.

Worried on the way to the room, but acceptable

The room was clean and fine for an overnight stay for my family. Walking to our room, we saw that the carpets in the hallway were filthy and were concerned that the room would be the same. The room was acceptable.

The Star Hotel had a certain 'twinkle'

I and a friend had an enjoyable 5-night stay. We found all staff (front of house, catering and cleaning) to be friendly and attentive. When i had a little issue with my room, reception had no hesitation in moving me once availability allowed. Was pleased to have both a working safe and fridge in the room along with other comforts you would expect from a good, 3-star hotel. All areas of the hotel were clean and tidy and the breakfast, although possibly a little repetitive, was both abundant and tasty.

The room is corresponding to the photos. It is standard and quite clean and spacious. The breakfast was really poor, it was obvious they tried to make economy on a single things there.

Location is great, about a 15-20 minute bus ride into the city and popular tourist attractions. Staff were helpful, printed out my boarding pass, and helped with directions. Thats where the pros end. On my booking I asked for 1 double bed, as I was traveling alone. When I checked in, I was given a room with 3 twin beds. When asked to make a change staff said that roooms were full, despite me booking a room with 1 bed. Staff said would have to ask hosekeeping to push twin beds together . Housekeeping did not do that until 2nd night of stay. Still did not sleep in the bed, as huge crack in the middle. Housekeeping is very loud in the mornings, so you ca not sleep in. Hotel. should be ahshamed of breakfast. It is the same food everyday, just 2 options, eggs and sausage, plus whatver bread they have out!! Once I went down 30min before breakfast ended and there was no food, and no one was refilling it. Bathroom is small, no amentities like tea, cofee, or water. I would never stay here again. Okay for one night. But really uncomfotarble, old, and shabby.
