Located in the central city, so great for sightseeing and partying. When we arrived we were told they were overbooked and we would have a room at their sister hotel - this was in the middle of the roadworks next to one of the bridges - not good. The receptionist was extremely apologetic and helpful and told us to return... More

Dear Valued Guest “angibo”, Thank you for sharing your experiences on Tripadvisor regarding your stay at our hotels. Due to some technical reasons upon your arrival we kindly asked you to stay in City Hotel Mátyás, which is located only a few hundred meters from City Hotel Pilvax, even closer to the Danube.

It is located in the heart of downtown, in the pedestrian area surrounded with lots of restaurants, bars, and sightseeing locations within a few minutes of walking distance, and still quite. The hotel is a bit old fashioned, but the room was nice and clean and the price they give compensated it. All in all, it was just perfect for... More

This is an unpretentious hotel in a great position. Set in a pedestrianised street, it is close to the metro and the bus. Everything is in walking distance too. It is very close to a supermarket .and there is an excellent Irish pub next door. The staff are great - very helpful, nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are... More

This hotel is in a great location if you want to get to it via metro from the airport. The reception was helpful and friendly. The room was clean and bright. The bathroom was a little old fashioned but for the price I can't grumble. There was no kettle in the room but there was a fridge to store cold... More

Travelled 11.2.13 to 13.2.13. An excellent hotel to undertake all the tourist spots. No need for taxi at the airport as a bus and metro takes you within a 90 second walk of the hotel. Centrally located but still very quiet. Hotel had good amenities and the staff were friendly and helpful. Plan to go back in the summer. If... More

Very good location, it was easy to walk everywhere in the city centre. Staff was very helpfull and friendly. Room was clean and warm. Breakfast was ok, but not enough choices for us. One night a carbage truck made noise at the street below our window, but that wasn't hotels fault.

This hotel was in an excellent location only a stones throw from Vaci Utca and the river. The room we had was spotlessly clean and had an excellent shower room/toilet. If I wanted to point out a downside it would be the lack of tea/coffee making facilities. Our room (116) had curtains which did not cover the entire window which... More
