What guests think

At Danubius Hotel Astoria City Center, travelers highlight a very central, historic property with easy transport links, spacious yet variable rooms, and generally friendly staff, alongside recurring complaints about traffic noise, inconsistent housekeeping, and aging fixtures and amenities.

Many appreciate the breakfast variety and the beautiful old-world cafe, though others find quality average or repetitive and the room crowded at peak times. Some rooms are newly renovated and comfortable, while classic areas retain period decor and occasional maintenance issues. Air conditioning can be weak or seasonally limited, and in-room amenities like kettles or stocked minibars are not consistent. Expect historic charm and excellent access, with trade-offs in modern polish.

The room smelled like toilet! We had to climb additional stairs after taking elevator with three suitcases which was not convenient. When we complained, they asked us to come down to the reception and collect new room key if we wanted to change - at 11:30 pm. We were too tired to do so and the room continued to smell so even in the morning. It was a terrible room. They moved us to another room the next day which was somewhat better.

空港から、バスでホテルの前に止まりとても便利です。部屋が、クラッシックタイプと新しい方があり、新しい方は、エスカレーターで上がった後また、階段を上がらないといけない為、スーツケースを上げるのに大変でした。また、窓にレースのカーテンしかない為、夜外から見えるのが気になりました。窓の外にブラインドのような物がありましたが、使い方がわからなくて使えませんでした。それ以外はとても良かったです。

Very conveniently located hotel, with great access to metro, trams, bus etc. We had a junior suite which was huge, but is looking tired and in need of an update. Cafe Astoria, where you have breakfast, appears to be part of hotel, but you can't charge anything to your hotel bill which is a bit odd. Disappointed that there was nothing gluten free at breakfast apart from cheese, fruits etc, but no gluten-free bread, crackers, cereals or cakes.

Danube Hotel Astoria is conveniently located in the middle of the city (Please note that this is on the Pest side, we didn't know the difference until we went there). Metro is right by the hotel so that made it very convenient but what i did NOT like about this hotel is the fact that breakfast was the SAME every single day, no change at all, some variety would have been nice. I also did not like the fact that there are no ice machines, no water fountains anywhere and when you requested for ice or simple tap water, it seemed like an inconvenience for the staff. I know this seems to be the norm in most European hotels but it sucks. I won't stay here again

El hotel muy bien ubicado. Personal amable. El desayunó muy rico. La primer noche, casi a media noche sonó la alarma de fuego y muchos salimos de nuestros cuartos. Fue falsa alarma afortunadamente. Al día siguiente en un voucher se disculparon y otorgaban un light buffet, que solo consistía en una sopa y café. Creo que con la disculpa, hubieran quedado mejor.

Very dated hotel, not really a 4 star. My room had a huge mold stain in the floor tiles and mold in the shower. Vacuuming was not properly done until I complained and cleaning in general was sub par. Staff were friendly enough but unable to rectify all complaints. Would have switched hotels had it not been the Easter holiday and nothing else available.

Incheckningen gick snabbt. Väl på rummet blev jag lite besviken. Tvål saknades i duschen. Vilket påtalades direkt. Dagen efter sade vi till om saknad tvål. Efter två dygn fortfarande ingen tvål. Slutade med att vi fick gå ner till receptionen och få en tvål. Städningen var inte ok. De tre hyllplan som fanns på plats sidan om sängen var fyllda med damm. Tråkigt nog lade jag mina kläder där som blev rejält dammiga. Överlag sköttes städningen dåligt. Grus låg kvar på golvet . Kanske glömde städaren att dammsuga. Papperskorgarna tömdes inte en enda gång. Stannade i fyra nätter. Rummet superior, som sådant är trevligt. Rymligt och tyst. Vi hade utsikt mot en mindre gata vilket var väldigt tyst. Utanför hotellet är det mycket trafik. Direkt utanför finns tunnelbana, spårvagn och bussar. Bättre läge finns inte. Många restauranter inom mindre än 5 minuters gångväg. Hotellet är byggt 1918 och det känns som ett gammalt lyxhotell. Mycket tjusig inredning tidstypisk. Frukosten var ok. Saknade bacon som fanns bara en dag samt stekta korvar som bara fanns en dag. Priset 16€ för frukost är i högsta laget. Frånsett städningen var jag nöjd. Skulle nog bo där en gång till , framförallt för läget

Location was great. However, for being a 4 star Hotel with a high room rate I expected more. It was quite worn and unmodern. The bed was old and uncomfortable and one chair had a nail sticking out, causing damage to clothes.The housecleaning was terrible. No vacuum cleaning during my 5 day stay, empty bottles and dirty teamugs and glasses were left for days. The furniture in the lobby was in desperate need of upholstering.

All in all, this isn’t a bad location to lodge while visiting Budapest. The location is pretty good. The metro (red), tram (yellow), and bus (blue) Astoria stops are all right by the hotel, so it’s fairly easy to access transportation. The hotel is a bit weathered. It’s still a nice facility overall, but it does show its age. Budapest is often hot, and the AC, in general, isn't really very good - at least to American standards. The Danubius Astoria is no exception. We enjoyed a suite and it was very spacious, including 1 and 1/2 baths, sitting room and bedroom. It was also at the corner building and included three balconies, which opened for great views of the city. The breakfast was standard European fare based on our experience with some local twists added in for a taste of Hungarian dishes. I'm glad we included it with our stay. For the price, it was a pleasant stay, and particularly if some updates to the facilities were made in the near future, I would not count out a return stay.

Grand old property that has seen better days, but we stayed in the wing whose rooms were renovated, so we were totally happy. And the hotel's location is excellent, walkable to the Danube and Vaci Utca. We especially liked the convenience of the Astoria subway entrance just outside the front door. Front desk staff was friendly & efficient. We'd stay here again.

Çleaning was done daily, even the towels, which was a surprise as we didn't ask for them to be changed. Didn't use the air-con as it wasn't needed. Hotel is central and has an underground practically at the front door. Amazing tram and bus system, although a bit confusing for me!
