I used, on occasion, to review hotels as part of my job working for a national newspaper - luckily for the Hungaria, this won't be going to print.. If you are looking for a basic no frills hotel, central, with good access to public transport then this hotel fits the bill nicely. Breakfast is a sparse affair... reconstituted scrambled eggs, cheap cuts of cold meat, fruit, yoghurt and a cold porridge like substance. It does the job but that's about it. I had upgraded to a junior suite for my visit and the room was spartan but clean and fairly spacious. The lower floors looked pretty dismal and could clearly benefit from a refurb. The staff were generally lovely, courteous and helpful - easily the hotel's strongest asset. There is not much by way of facilities, so, if you like a pool/spa or gym session, then this is not for you. Overall, I'd describe the experience as 'adequate'.

They brought the food in the restaurant on neewspaper. When I protested, they said this was a special paper prepared specifically for food. Then what is the paint for the letters? It was directly in touch with the food. Also, they have “service charge” (another name for the tip), but only one lady waitress told me that don’t give a tip, it is included in the bill. The other waiters did not mention this, they expected the second tip. Nice, yes?

The hotel met our needs. Recently renovated. Our room was a bit "cozy". Super friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast. Parking under the building. Public transportation hub nearby. Also craft beer close by. Will consider staying there again because of the location.

I often take trains to/from Keleti and this hotel is walkable (even with heavy luggage) from the train station. The staff are very eager to help you with your needs. The breakfast is fabulous. Transportation options are all very close by. The hotel has a “Hungarian feel” and I really like that about it.
