    (Gold Hotel) Lovely hotel just outside the city, location perfect for walking to the river and city centre areas. Fabulous views from Gellért park just around the corner. Super friendly staff, very comfortable beds. We really enjoyed our stay. Fantastic value for money and would stay again.

    (Gold Hotel) It is a no-frills, no-pretentious hotel, but has everything you need to feel good. I went with a friend and we were very comfortable. Comfortable beds, comfortable room. Fantastic shower. Breakfast has everything, although little of everything, but it is very good and for the price is very correct. In front of the hotel there is a bus that in two stops leaves you in the center, but we were walking and took about 35 minutes. It is a nice hotel with all the necessary facilities.

In the room coffee maker and kettle with related pods and tea bags. Room on the seventh floor spacious and with views of Parliament. Highly recommended.
