Hotel berhampiran Gifts 43, Budapest

We had a reasonably sized 1 bed appt. From other reviews I was worried about noise and bad behaviour of groups of tourists but this is a block of 90 apartments and only 24 are tourist rentals. Others include a number of people with the title ”Dr” so they are not riffraff, if you know what I mean. Our stay so far has been very quiet. Almost no noise from inside the block. It's the centre of a city so there is road noise etc but the windows are triple glazed so keep the noise out very well. Lift and corridors are all v bright and well cleaned. The area is touristy to some extent with loads of good value eating places including a very popular Hungarian restaurant where you need to book called Getto Gulyas. The area as a whole used to be the Jewish ghetto so the huge synagogue is close by but that meant that the are as a whole is quite run down in appearance. I think that makes it a much more interesting feel than some of the more renovated areas. This apartment block is new enough that it's not shown on Google satellite. Apartment was very clean and well equipped with washing machine and dishwasher. Everything you need for cooking on holiday. Furnished exclusively from Ikea by the looks of it but it felt new and not worn out. Bed is comfortable and on the firm side. So far the is absolutely nothing of any significance wrong with the apartment. Maybe we have been lucky by not being near a stag party. But we've only seen one about town in our stay so far. From our experience we would recommend.

Apartment central. Room was nice. Reception staff not the most friendliest. The beds in the apartment are 2 single beds on wheels not ideal for married couples who are having a weekend away and wanna cuddle up at night. Glasses provided and there was another guests crisps in cupboard. These should be binned as open and unhygienic eating crisps someone has had their hands in. Rooms cleaned daily. A few times maids came in when we were in our single beds. Took towel and never replaced them, had to get out shower to go down and get new towels. It is quite noisy as apartment is on main road. There is blinds on the windows. There is brown curtains but they don’t fit the window so the sun shines in and wakes you up. No chance of a long lie. Beware of street taxis - they will try rip you off when you have been drinking alcohol. I’d download bolt - just like Uber. Kebab shop a few doors down - lovely food Spar straight across the road. Close to some fab bars. Unsure if we would stay here again.

Stayed 5 nights for a conference with 3 other colleagues. Quaint hotel that looks its age. Had very friendly and helpful staff handling check in/out. Had taken a suite, but it was rather small. Main door opened into an anteroom with 2 internal doors - 1 of which led into bedroom (just enough space for a double bed with 2 small side tables). The other door led into a small living room (space for dressing table, couch, TV, and a small round table with a chair). Bathroom is a little dim. Breakfast buffet had standard ham and cheese cuts, scrambled eggs, breads, cereals, fruits - repeated daily. Noticed the staff change the cutlery after each dinner, but the placemats on the table is not changed. Location is excellent with nearby train and bus station leading to all major attractions. Also have supermarkets nearby.

The hotel is very beautiful and modern and the staff very welcoming. not knowing the city, they do not hesitate to advise me on places to visit and explain to me how to get around with public transport. The room was very comfortable and modern corresponding to all my expectations. The only small negative point that I could cite is the restricted opening hours of the restaurant and the bar. Taking into account the neighborhood (8th arrondissement), I would have preferred to eat at the hotel than to have to go out or order. In summary, a great stay and can't wait to come back!

Excelent place to stay close to everything plus Metro and the rooms are enought to sleep and having breakfast with good quality. The staff is quite good and very friendly and spend the correct attention to details. I recommend this hotel for travelers since they can by walk give a turist view of all the important places (I try to do it everytime I'm there)

Currently here at the moment and tbh I’m disappointed! Not like the reviews say. It’s a good 45 min walk to the centre of Budepest. The breakfast is lack lustre at most! Luke warm hot drinks, only one side of the toaster works and very basic buffet. Rooms have no tv, or hairdryers! The amenities it says are here simply aren’t, rooftop bar closed, pasta shop never open, spar next door is very limited hours and the staff are rude. If your wanting somewhere to stay with things around it don’t stay here it feels like your in the middle of no where. Nothing much around it so do expect to be walking quite a way to get to anything. I comply understand it’s geared towards student but even these must be bored to tears with the lack of amenities around the hotel, not even anywhere to grab a bite to eat within a good 10 min walk. Would I stay here again? Absolutely not On a plus note the reception staff are lovely

Fantastisch!! We waren drie uur te vroeg maar kregen, ongevraagd en heel vriendelijk, een andere kamer waardoor we niet in de lobby hoefden te wachten. De kamer was keurig opgeruimd, heerlijk bed, nette badkamer, kortom tiptop in orde. De verschillende zwembaden en het bubbelbad waren schoon en mooi dus erg aangenaam. Het ontbijt was erg uitgebreid zodat er zelfs voor kieskeurige mensen als mijn vrouw en ik wat lekkers, en gezonds, te krijgen was. Het personeel was heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam Dit bleek o.a. uit dat mijn vrouw onwel was geworden door iets wat we in de stad hadden gegeten en daardoor vroeg ik laat in de avond enkele stuks fruit en de volgende dag een latere checkout wat we ook weer kosteloos aangeboden kregen. Als ik iets zou moeten noemen dan is dat dit prachtige hotel al wat ouder is waardoor de luxe niet meer helemaal up to date is, voor ons was dat helemaal geen probleem en zou ik zelfs zeggen dat we het als een pluspunt zagen. Het is wellicht wat duurder dan doorsnee hotels maar het is 100% waar voor je geld!! Fantastic!! We were three hours early but were given another room, unsolicited and very kindly, so we didn't have to wait in the lobby. The room was very tidy, wonderful bed, nice bathroom, in short, in tiptop order. The various pools and hot tub were clean and beautiful so very enjoyable. The breakfast was very extensive so that even picky people like my wife and I could get something tasty and healthy. The staff was very friendly and helpful. This showed, among other things, in that my wife had become unwell due to something we had eaten in the city, so I asked for some fruit late in the evening and a later checkout the next day, which we again were offered free of charge. If I had to mention something negative, it is that this beautiful hotel is a bit older, so the luxury is no longer completely up to date, for us that was no problem at all and I would even say that we saw it as a plus. It may be a bit more expensive than average hotels but it is 100% value for money!!

Unexpectedly excellent ! Thank you! They allowed me to late check out which is really appreciated! The swimming pool and sauna is very nice and the staffs are busy but very very helpful ! Thank you Bath tab is nice ! Balcony is wonderful Yea

Waited 55 minutes to check in. Carpets on the way to the room have stains, room was ok and clean but not what I have become accustomed to for 4 star, no toiletries as advertised.Room not even made up during the day (see photos) Need a car to access anywhere touristy. No restaurant or bar open as advertised. Towels and bedding thin and worn, we asked for a double duvet as most rooms are twin and after an hour wait (despite asking in the morning) a grumpy man arrived and literally threw another single duvet onto the bed. No tea or coffee making machines,no water and the mini bar fridge was broken and dilapidated. Shower soap dispenser was empty. They do have a sauna and steam room but these are off, if you ask they will turn them on for you. Szechenyi baths offer a great day or half day out and local restaurant 1.5 mile away Ypsilon cafe was recommended by hotel staff worth a visit! Hotel I wouldn't recommend at all I'm afraid unless needing to be next to the expo or Derby.
