Hotels in District VIII-Jozsefvaros, Budapest

Stayed Feb 2026 for 1 night. As most reviewers have already indicated, the room was spacious and the bed comfortable. Although we were assigned a room facing the Keleti station and the main road, it was surprisingly not too noisy. We could hear the occasional police siren but it did not disturb our sleep. One downside - we checked out early and wanted to store our luggage; we were surprised that it was a paid service (by a private operator on the hotel’s premises). The cost is high: renting a ‘XL size’ locker for 4 hours cost 14 euros if I remember correctly

Everything about the hotel was quite reasonable. Although the breakfast selection wasn't extensive, the ingredients were good quality and it tasted nice. However, the service could be improved. We arrived around 7 AM to check-in and drop off our luggage. When we returned to the hotel at 2 PM, the front desk told us we'd have to wait until 3 PM. So, I told them we'd be sitting on the sofa nearby and to let us know when our room was ready. Between 2:30 PM and 3 PM, they continued to check in other guests. After 3 PM, since no one had informed me, I assumed the room wasn't ready. It wasn't until around 3:20 PM, when I went to the front desk to ask, that I discovered the room had been ready for a while, but they simply hadn't told me. The waiting area sofa was less than two meters directly in front of the front desk, and they had been aware of our presence the entire time but never notified us.

I extended my stay for one more day, really enjoyed here. The hotel staff are so polite and assisted me in everything I needed.

Has all your basic needs met, there were a few issues in my first room. Shower head was broken and the towels had holes, but they were very accommodating and I was able to move to a better w room. Breakfast was good, the little sausages were my favourite! The location is very convenient for what I had to get done, and a decent walking distance from the trains and bus stops. Would stay again 😊

🏨🍳🛏️🌇🚆 After staying in Prague, Vienna, and Budapest, we found this hotel to be the best value of the trip. The breakfast was decent and runs from 7 AM to 10:30 AM, with probably the best eggs we had during our whole stay across Central Europe. The hotel is very well situated — close to the train station and within walking distance to Old Town attractions, which made exploring easy. The rooms are quite small, and we struggled a bit to fit all our luggage between the two of us, but the beds were extremely comfortable and we slept really well. Also worth highlighting is the excellent air conditioning in the rooms, which made a huge difference during the warmer days.

Upon arrival at night, the hotel appeared abandoned due to the lack of lighting. We later learned there was a power outage; however, the receptionist was accommodating and helpful. She offered us drinks and snacks while we waited to check in. After some time, since the power had not yet returned, she kindly arranged a ground-floor room for us. The room was spacious, comfortable, and equipped with basic amenities. Overall, it’s one of the better hotel options near Keleti Railway Station—just one bus stop away with a short walk.

The apartment complex is located on the corner of two quiet side streets. The nearest metro station, Blaha Lujsa-ter, as well as the Keleti train station, are easily accessible on foot. The new building, completed in 2026, is naturally still in good condition, very clean, and was presumably intended for apartment rentals. The apartments that are currently vacant are being rented out to tourists like hotel rooms. The booked breakfast for two people for two days was already there upon arrival, but unfortunately, the portions weren't very generous and were eaten on the first day. It seems we were expecting two more portions for the following day... Well, a little diet never hurt anyone! What was practically non-existent was the Wi-Fi, which only connected for a few minutes at a time before disconnecting again. The furnishings were rather spartan, which is due to the intended use as long-term rentals – the future tenants are meant to furnish the apartment to their own taste. The fairly large eat-in kitchen, estimated at 25 square meters, didn't feel particularly inviting as a result. The bedroom, with the necessary minimum distance between the double bed and the walls, was very cozy. The bathroom had a shower head built into the bathtub – a real challenge for anyone who showers without flooding the bathroom. The small balcony shouldn't be forgotten; it offers enough space for two people to enjoy the fresh air – and it's also a good place to dry laundry and umbrellas. Considering the many old, small, and worn-out hotel rooms out there, this is definitely a worthwhile addition, but not preferable to a true four-star hotel.

This hotel is right in the city center, just a 5-minute walk from New York Cafe. It's incredibly convenient for getting around, with easy access to both the subway and buses. Overall, it offers fantastic value for money. The room was clean, tidy, and had high ceilings, which made it feel spacious and not at all cramped. The only minor downside was the pillows, which weren't very comfortable.

The location is excellent, with almost all attractions within walking distance. The rooms are well-designed, and the hotel facilities are new and comprehensive. The breakfast is very good, and the lobby bar in the evenings is fantastic. Highly recommended!

Stayed 4 nights in the hotel. Meaning I had breakfast for 5 days. It was something looking forward every morning. There were variety of foods and the hot dishes changed everyday.The cooking was good. It is very convenient in terms of getting a transportation. 2 metro stations in walking distance and trams passing by in front of the hotel. The famous New York Cafe is in walking distance. You could even stroll to the Danube River bank if you wish to. The hotel is located at a not so busy street at night. Quiet but safe.
