Great hotel, the only problem we had was the door was tricky to open and close, maybe reception could offer advice when guests check in. And the shower in the room kept falling down which did get a bit annoying.

The hotel was clean, shower worked well - good pressure and warm water, matracess were comfortable. There's nothing more to ask from a hotel. Breakfast was included, and it was very tasty, local sweet buns available, hot food was available as well. On arrival we could chose from a single or double bed room. And on departure we were offered help with luggages (which we didn't need). These nice touches made it a pleasurable experience to stay in the Star City Hotel. If I could find any issues, it would be only shower draining slowly and soap ( shower gel) dispenser in shower was empty.

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.
