This is a great hotel, large but friendly. Fabulous location in Pest beside the National Museum and within walking distance of all the major sights in both Pest and Buda - minutes from the Danube. Good selection of bars, restaurants (Raday Utca street very good) and shopping. Excellent reception service with English spoken by all staff - very important here. The hotel has its own small pool and sauna, good buffet breakfasts with vegetarian options, and both a public and a private members' bar. We asked for a quiet room, which was good. Like many hotels in Cental Pest there is the likelihood of traffic noise if you are on a main road (it is a city). I would thoroughly recommend it.
Kecskemeti U 14, Budapest, 1053, Area VIII
On arrival at the airport the minibus service was closed, but the tourist information office got us a reliable taxi company. The tourist lady wrote down how much it should be and that is all we were charged. The driver gave us his number for the trip back, and he was again very reliable. Our hotel (like many) offered a minibus service going back to the airport, but you had to book it at least 24 hours in advance.
