"Located in District VI on the Pest side of town, this four-star hotel is housed in a massive 19th-century mansion; the rooms may feel a bit dated but are clean, spacious, and the beds are comfortable. Rooms include a desk, flatscreen TV, and electric kettle, and the showers have good water pressure. There’s a simple free breakfast of bread, coffee, and cereals each morning, and the hotel offers holistic healing programs like herbal remedies and acupuncture. The main draw for me is how close it is to Széchenyi thermal spa—just a short 7-minute walk—making it a practical, no-frills option." - Matthew Kepnes
