Hotel Budapest District XVI-Matyasfold

Outstanding Gold Standard Hotel. We stayed five nights in the hotel, and from the time we arrived, we enjoyed the most outstanding professional and welcoming hospitality of the hotel staff. To our suprise, most of the staff communicated well in English and were always welcoming, professional, and friendly. The superior studio provided a spectacular view of the Danube River and the majestic Chain Bridge. The view of the city was absolutely magnificent, especially at night time. Everything in the room was of high standard, and having stayed at many hotels around the world, we could say without hesitation that the soundproofing in the room was Gold Standard. For the first time, we were not disturbed by any external noise from the hotel or from traffic noise from outside the hoìtel. This made our stay enjoyable and memorable. We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone in the hotel for making our stay in Budapest spectacular!

There were some issues(?) when making a reservation, but it is a satisfactory hotel in many ways. Since it has been renovated, it provides facilities and conveniences (capsule coffee, bottled water, chocolate, city maps, etc.). When making an airport pickup reservation, you should provide the Trip.com address instead of the Google Map address (another hotel address in Buda District).

The location of the hotel is great. It is located on the bank of the Blue Danube, between the Parliament Building and the Chain Bridge. It is not far from the main attractions and is within walking distance. Although the room is next to the road, the sound insulation is very good and you can't hear much noise at night. Our room was on the first floor and had a view of the Parliament Buildings, although the electric poles on the roadside somewhat blocked the view. The hotel staff are all friendly and welcoming, greeting you with a smile. Breakfast is also good. The restaurant is small but very cozy. You can also order delicious freshly made eggs a la carte. Parking needs to be reserved in advance. The garage is right behind the hotel and is easy to find. Speaking of parking, it is necessary to talk about our experience. When we drove away after checking out, we needed to reverse out of the garage and turn onto the road. However, there were vehicles parked on the side of the road at the entrance of the garage. It was difficult to see the road behind the car when we reversed and turned. Although I reversed very slowly, unfortunately, the car As soon as the rear corner entered the road, it was hit by a car speeding from behind. Fortunately, no one on either side was injured and the damage to the vehicle was minimal. I say this to remind latecomers that if you drive out of this garage onto the road, it is very necessary to ask the person in the car to get out of the car and direct the reverse from behind! In particular, I would like to praise the hotel staff, a young and handsome man, who gave us great help. After the car collided, I called 112 and called the police. While waiting for the police to arrive, this staff member discovered that we had been involved in a traffic accident, and took the initiative to ask and help us. He repeatedly comforted me verbally, called 112 to inquire about the arrival time of the police, and helped us find and print relevant documents on the car in advance. After arriving at the scene, he helped us translate and communicate and negotiate with the police. With his help, we successfully obtained the traffic accident report. We occupied him for a long time during the entire process and I wanted to thank him, but he just said it was his job and no thanks were needed. This makes us very touched! This hotel is definitely our only choice next time we come to Budapest!

The structure has a convenient location because it is close enough to tram and metro stops, about ten minutes walk from the Ponte delle Corde and some restaurants. It is a beautiful building, in a clean and elegant area. Inside, in the reception, the environment is very welcoming and furnished in a modern way. The common spaces are also bright, well decorated. The room is essential, quite small in size, pleasantly furnished with beautiful fixtures capable of isolating from external noise. The bathroom is modern, has a well-structured walk-in shower in which the rest of the room hardly gets wet. The staff is very kind and helpful, they immediately responded to our requests even when the request was to change our room due to a persistent unpleasant smell. But let's move on to the weak points, because unfortunately the hotel has potential that is currently unexpressed. First of all, it could be much cleaner: the corridor had several crumbs and food residues on the carpet, during our four day stay it was never completely cleaned. The carpet in our room had several stains - an unfortunate choice for long-pile carpet in a hotel room - so I never felt comfortable walking barefoot. Secondly, evidently the monastery was not built with air exchange principles, so there is a stagnant air in the entire structure that you can smell when you return to the room. After having to change rooms due to a strong musty smell, we had to air out the new one every night before going to sleep. The same in the stairs. Last point, breakfast. Decent in choice and good in quality, but not worth the cost.

This is a nice 4 star hotel overlooking the Danube on the Budapest side of the river. Superior rooms are at the front of the hotel, which is the newer part. You have a choice of River View or Castle view, River view is better and attracts a supplement. Our reservation through Trip mentioned Castle view and River view, but you cannot have both! Breakfast is a good choice of hot and cold food, nice coffee and cakes. Rooms are well equipped, clean and serviced daily. Good hot water. Bathrooms have a bath with over bath shower. Toiletries are provided. Towels changed daily. Rooms have safes, kettle with tea and coffee making facilities. The TV was a Cable TV and had a variety of channels, one English, BBC. The hotel has a bar and restaurant and a gym. Staff are very helpful, we managed to check in early and upgrade our room to one with a River view. A good selection of nice restaurants are within 10 mins walk. The hotel is situated directly beneath the Castle, access by the steps or via the funicular which is 5 min walk along by the river, alternatively large buggy vehicles operate a hop on hop off shuttle service. We found that the Bolt taxi service (bit like Uber) is very good. We has a freelance taxi driver try to scam us by not using his meter, we refused to pay and invited him to call the police. Avoid freelance taxi drivers and make sure they use their meters. Bolt uses an app and was a lot cheaper than the price the hotel informed us if we used their taxi service. Photos are from our room window.

This is a well-established five-star hotel. The rooms are old, but clean and comfortable. The breakfast is good and you can enjoy it slowly. Most of the guests are retired elderly people. The best thing is that the hotel is in a great location. The scenery outside the window of the river view room is as beautiful as a postcard.

The location of the Four Seasons Hotel is very convenient. The moment you step into the hotel, you can already feel the warm hospitality. From the design of the guest rooms to the gym and swimming pool, you can experience the comfort of the Four Seasons 5-star hotel.

A fantastically clean and very well located hotel. Right in the centre of town and has just enough to provide a comfortable stay. However, the 8:30am knocks from housekeeping are very annoying and a fridge is something management should consider - as there is room for one. Breakfast pastries and coffee were great, but hot items lacking and need improvement.

Super good, just below the Fisherman's Bastion, close to the chain bridge, all kinds of convenient travel, free public playground at the door, very suitable for children to play, the room is super good, breakfast is simple but the horns are super invincible! It is the best horn I have ever eaten! I still remember it! The only fly in the ointment is that there is no elevator. If you live on the fourth floor, you will get a little tired every day.
