Aventura Boutique Hostel and Apartments Budapest

The staff were really friendly and I loved the themes to the bedrooms. I stayed in the Africa themed room and it was great, I also got a post card left on my bed. There was great kitchen facilities. The only issue was that I didn’t get to meet any of the others staying at the hostel. People tended to stay in there rooms. My bed also creaked when I moved. Other than that I really liked staying here, it was located near plenty of restaurants and was only a short bus ride from some of the fab attractions.

The best part of our experience at the hostel was with the front desk. It's a very small hostel so you really get to know the staff and they were so personable and helpful. They gave us tips on all the fun things to do and places to eat. They really made our experience personal. This hostel is a little far from the center of Budapest but if you don't mind walking (especially in a very safe city in well lit areas) then it's not an issue. The room we were in (the Africa room) was also so fun to stay in because of the loft and the hammock it had!

Aventura is a clean, quiet cozy little place in a central location. Staff was very kind and helpful. I've been to the hostel twice over three years and had a great time both times that I was there. In both occasions I stayed in the Japan room which is a private double. It's nicely furnished with the essentials. Outside of the room there's all you could expect from a hostel: kitchen, free wifi, tons of info about places to go and things to see in Budapest and elsewhere. If you're backpacking and looking for a cheap but nice place to stay it's definitely recommended.

I spent 3 nights there. This place was nice, quiet, with an original decoration. The area around was quiet as well, and good located, indeed, near from the Nyugati Train and Metro Station, a big commercial center, many pubs and restaurants, and the Danube as well. The staff is nice and helpful. The breakfast was always served at the good moment :)

This was a really nice hostel in a chill part of town. I liked the reception they were friendly and helpful. We had a private room and it was so nice. The details and all the common areas are clean and relaxing. I would love to return.

It's a great hostel, one of the best I got to see in the city (and I tried out quite a few of them!). The staff is friendly, everyone here provides great tips on things to do in Budapest (check the big board after the entrance!). I also like the design of the hostel, which is both nice and creative (and gosh, these great Budapest flats from the 13th district better check them out!). More than great value for your money!

Excellent place to stay, quiet-off the main road so you can open windows if you need, great value, choice of accommodation type, I'd describe the hostel as bohemian without being seedy, great space in the [lockable] room & large, lockable storage drawers under the bed (which I didn't feel the need to lock up), NOT bunks crammed into a space. Wood flooring, towel hanging rack (great touch), individual lamps over each bed plus individual bedside tables. Duvets provided. Also a large table/chairs in the centre of our room which is a nice touch too. Mezzanines are used cleverly to add to the space and avoid crowding. Good full kitchen & fridge, daily filtered coffee with honesty jar (thank you!). Free wifi and full computer terminal with usb hub (for charging if you forgot your charger like I did!). Excellent location. Hostels in Budapest and in many locations around the world are still great but have become a bit standardised and "handle volumes of people efficiently". Aventura is still part of the old set of hostels, clean, good space, well run but individual in character and just the right amount of quirky! And it's warm (my stay was in January)! Excellent money changer across the main road too! Highly recommended.

Location is great - especially if you're travelling to and from Nyugati. Staff are friendly. My boyfriend and I stayed in the Japan room, and unfortunately didn't have a great night's sleep, as there is no 24hr reception so people kept pressing the buzzer to get in. We woke up many times during the night. Perhaps in the dorm rooms there wouldn't be this problem.
