Good value small modern 4-star hotel on the banks of the Danube, just below the castle district, and opposite the Parliament building.
We stayed here for five nights in September 2000. The rooms are large and nicely furnished, with huge wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Danube, and Pest on the other side. It is a 10 minute walk to the nearest metro (Batthyány tér), but there are trams which run along the embankment outside the hotel. |
