What guests think

Across recent reviews, Hotel Central Basilica stands out for its unbeatable location beside St. Stephen’s Basilica and generally friendly service, while guests frequently praise clean rooms but note varying room sizes and recurring air-conditioning performance issues during warmer periods.

Breakfast is often described as good with solid variety, though a few found it pricey or average, and in-room coffee/tea provisions are basic. Some reviews mention street noise or church bells and occasional bathroom fixture or drainage problems. Expect a centrally located, comfortable base with excellent access and a few comfort trade-offs.

Lovely room on second floor with street view. Excellent location for sight-seeing and restaurants. We didn’t realise there is no bar or area for relaxing but the location made up for this.

I booked 3 nights and left after the first. Because it was to uncomfortable to sleep. 24.5 and humid when Ifirst arrived it only ever cooled down to 23.5 and humid. About 8pm i had the desk clerk check the AC he pushed some buttons then said it should work. It didnt he had to know. I called management the next morning they said the AC could only cool so many degrees diffrent than the outside air. I said the why didnt it cool off at night? When it was 18.3. They did offer me a fan. I opend the window at night and that helped but a car alarm went off 3 times and the lights were too much. The location was great. The shower was a bit small.

We liked the location of this boutique hotel. It’s awesome location makes it very easy to fine dining options and to visit most of the attractions as they are in walking distance. The hotel and room was very clean, room modernly decorated with comfy beds. Now what we disliked: the AC did not work properly, it looked like it was set to minimum 24.5C and there was extreme humidity in the room and the entire building. It was 34C outside so it was quite unpleasant. Our clothes became humid and the sheets felt humid as well. The room was shockingly small, you can barely walk in front of the bed. The shower drain was clogged and the shower will fill up with water. Another negative, the blackout curtains are too small for the large windows and the sun creeps in so you cannot sleep in.

The location is amazing and very walkable. The hotel is safe and well light. The only major downside was the box ac unit didn’t get cold during the very hot summer vacation. The coldest the room got was 24.5*C. If you are not going during summer, you will enjoy your stay there with the friendly staff and super convenient location.

My wife and I went to Budapest for the Christmas Markets and the Hotel is located directly in the market which makes it an awesome place to plan your excursions from. The staff was awesome. The airline lost our luggage and the desk clerk was kind enough to call the airport and speak to them in Hungarian and insure that our bags would be brought back to the hotel and they were. Overall an awesome experience and we will absolutely be staying here again.

This was a great hotel with a wonderful price for its outstanding location! The only complaint that I have is that the cleaning lady came into my room when I had the “Do Not Disturb” sign on my door. I had a feeling to go back to my hotel to take a break from touring when I walked up & saw her in my room looking at my items & touching my travel bags. She told me she found the sign in the room (which falls & glides on the floor as it happened to me earlier) instead of on the door & I politely asked her to leave as I didn’t need any cleaning service or anything more in my room. I was there during Christmas Market season so everything was walkable from this hotel. The Christmas market was a lot smaller than what I thought it was going to be, but so special because of the location & history of Budapest.

Struttura ottima, camere grandi e pulizia perfetta. Peccano un po’ nel servizio con i clienti. In realtà i ragazzi alla reception sono molto gentili tranne un ragazzo con i capelli scuri che purtroppo era in reception quando siamo arrivati venerdì mattina: mia figlia aveva la febbre a 39 e lui é stato molto scortese e senza pazienza. Gli avevo chiesto se ci potesse dare la camera leggermente prima delle 14 in modo tale da far sdraiare mia figlia (non era un capriccio) e il ragazzo non ci ha badato e ci ha consegnato la chiave alle 14:05, essendo già pronta dalle 12. Servizio alla colazione un po’ scadente in quanto se arrivi dopo le 9 devi attendere di nuovo tutte le portate ma qualità del cibo molto buona.

The staff was amazing, always helpful and respectful. The hotel is perfectly located, quiet and clean. The A/C I believe needs to have maintenance take a look because it was not cooling very well. The carpet needs to be shampooed because it had some stains. The shower door was broken and the shower needs a dish to place the bar of soap. Overall I would recommend this hotel if you are looking to be centrally located in Budapest and get a good night sleep.

The hotel is in great location and staff is great. Unfortunately the amenities and facilities could be upgraded! We stayed twice, and in two different rooms ( regular and deluxe) the shower doors were broken and could not be closed completely. The drains are so clogged, that we had to turn off the water every few minutes to prevent overflowing. And the bathroom are not well appointed. There is no flat surface to put anything down! Toiletries, makeup, medicines, you name it - nowhere to place but the floor. Finally, what the hotel calls coffeemaker is simply a kettle and instant coffee packs.
