Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Basic breakfast — Breakfast is limited to coffee or tea and a couple of sandwiches, which may disappoint if you expect a full spread.
  • Small scale, limited staffing — Only five rooms, and there's no attendant on site except during breakfast hours.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so plan accordingly if you're travelling with an animal.
  • Check-out at 10:00 — With a 10:00 check-out, you'll need to be up and out fairly early, which may not suit late risers.

“Great stay in Budapest. Perfect location, short walk to the centre and public transport. Room had everything I needed – comfy bed, clean shower, reliable wifi. Liked the free coffee. Staff gave good tips on nearby clubs. Found an amazing club 15 minutes away. Highly recommend for location, staff and price.”

“Staff really helpful. Being inside the building complex means it's quiet. But at this price, breakfast is basic: just coffee or tea and a couple of cheese-and-butter sandwiches.”

“Basic room, good location, great value. Reception walked us to our room. Calm courtyard. Studio 3 on Zichy Jeno street matches photos. Spacious for 2 with kitchen, dining table, sofa, TV, wardrobe. Bathroom small but adequate. Perfect location near Buda's sights, cafés and supermarkets. Top option for a low price.”
