The hostel is nice, clean for the most part. It's located in a good area near a tram line that takes you to the parliament building and Vörösmarty tér. It's also within a 10 min. walk from Kalvin tér metro station which is good for getting to Buda and other parts of Pest, including the two massive stations Nyugati and Keleti. It is also near to Nagycsarnok at Fövam tér. The hostel bed was clean but the walls and exterior were a bit dirty. The linen and towels were cleaned daily. The bathrooms were clean, and the other guests of the hostel seemed to try to keep it clean. I wish there was more space to brush your teeth and dry your hair. There are lockers in the rooms, which can be opened with the hotel keycard they give you. Very handy and pretty good security. There's 2 separate communal entrances to get to your room, so that is a plus in terms of security. If you like staying in hostels, I'm sure this will meet your standards. If you like staying in hotels, I'd say to give this one a go since it's not as rough or rowdy as others. Surrounding area seems safe, very WW2-esque if you ask me. There's an money exchange at Kalvin tér. There is a SPAR about 3 mins from the hostel.

This hostel was great, lively and felt safe for female travellers. The female only 6 bed hostel rooms were tight, just literally beds and lockers. The lockers were quite large and accessible with a key card. The beds were comfortable, and the curtain was great. The toilet and shower facilities were clean and tidy. The wifi is good! The only feedback would be to remove the hand dryer from the bathroom as it’s super loud and wakes up everyone in the rooms close by. People use it at ridiculous hours of the morning. Otherwise, great location super easy to walk everywhere! Would recommend for sure.

This hostel was amazing!! Transportation within walking distance. Hostel is located in a safe neighborhood. 2 blocks away from the Danube river. Daily housekeeping and towels provided. Breakfast served daily for a small fee. Just a basic continental breakfast. Wished they had more options including some Hungarian options. Front desk is pleasant and knowledgeable of Budapest. If you had to stay at a hostel, pick Themis one. Solo female traveler from Brooklyn New York ❤️

This hostel definitely knows how to help their guests make the most of their stay in Budapest. The service was incredible - staff are so helpful and friendly, the room was clean and modern (we stayed in a private twin room for 2), and there was no shortage of activities to keep us busy. The surrounding area is connected to transit (including the airport shuttle), and it's a nice walk to some of the popular tourist attractions. We had such a great experience and it set the bar very high for the rest of our time in Europe. We're excited to return!

Absolutely recommend.

Booked on the spur of the moment and so glad we did. It was so much better than we expected. Lovely big room, very well appointed. We had an ensuite room but even so this takes staying in a hostel to a completely new level. Location was spot on, easy walk to the main centre of Pest and literally 3 minutes to very good local bistro's. (Clara Bizstro very good and very good value)

I would highly recommend this hostel, it is especially good for solo travellers as they have a WhatsApp group for their guests and put on very regular social events, Parsa was brilliant with the social events and really helpful, I ended up going out and having 2 great nights in the ruins bars which I never would have done on my own. I love the curtains around the bed giving you extra privacy and the lockers are really spacious, the toilets and showers are clean and the cleaners are always working away keeping the place lovely ! It’s a great location, walkable to most places. Would also highly recommend popping into pizza manufakúra only two streets over !
