Stayed here for the Christmas markets. Good location, clean hotel with breakfast buffet. The only thing I didn’t like is the clear glass wall of the bathroom. If you’re sharing the room with just a friend then you wouldn’t have privacy.

We visited Margaret Island, which wasn't on our original itinerary and really enjoyed it. Lunch at the Grand hotel was fantastic and the spa next door was wonderful. The island itself is very picturesque and a nice place to walk and view the city.

Didn’t expect too much, but Budapest stole our hearts and tastebuds. Food was delicious and plentiful, typical home/comfort food. Restaurants and staff spoke good English, even the little ones off the broken path. Fantastic history and buildings.
