Lánchíd 19 Design Hotel Budapest

Hotel got two stars only for location (beautiful view on the river) and friendly and helpful staff. They did everything they could to make our stay pleasant. However, the room is not in the freshest condition. Nice looking bathroom but no shower holder and the trash bin didn't work well. And the shampoo as well as body wash has very unpleasant smell.

Unfortunately, our stay was not good. We stayed 7 nights and got overcharged by about 40 Euros to the agreed price. Worse was the housekeeping. The bathroom got hardly cleaned. Coffee cups were put back in the cupboard, where you could clearly see brown spots from previous usage. We stayed in many design-/ boutique hotels in the past and never had such a bad experience. Just offering a room with a nice view doesn't make a good hotel or service.

We loved everything about it! Great location, close to public transportation and the view was amazing. We asked for a river view and it was stunning. We had to pay extra for the highest floor but with the best view in town it was still significantly priced lower then Novotel or the other hotels near by. The breakfast worth every penny. Nice selection and I asked for gluten free in advance and they had it freshly made out of the oven!

The photos for this hotel are overselling it a lot - I'd guess there's probably one room that looks as spacious and luxurious as the photos. It's quite a basic hotel, nothing exclusive. Positives were: The location is great, really good restaurants and bars nearby, next to some of Budapest's biggest tourist spots and good for tram connections. We paid for a castle view room, which was good & possibly quieter at the back of the property with a small balcony. Bed was comfy and room was clean. I expected the room to be a bit bigger, and in better condition, a lot of the furniture was scuffed and old looking (but probably isn't, just the bright colours make it really obvious). A big annoyance was that they wouldn't accept card or euros for the city tax - it had to be forints (of which we didn't have many left and then wound up with a pile of useless coins). A nice place to stay if all you'll do is sleep there.

Nice hotel, nice rooms, amazing view to Danube, very friendly and helpful guy at the reception. Very good dinner. We had 2 rooms, 6th floor, the kids room was ok, but ours not so clean, we saw a lot of hairs on the floor in the room, in the bathroom. It seemed like it hadn’t been properly cleaned. One of the tea cup had coffee spots... We found the bottle of water in the minibar half empty, probably the cleaning lady forgot to replace it. But, the bedsheets were immaculate, the bed and the pillows were comfy. We found parking place in front of the hotel.

Very nice atmosphere and design, workers there were polite and the rooms were very clean. We had a view on the river which made the experience a bit better, bathroom came with a tub and shower (bonus points) and the bed was super comfy.

Stayed at this property for two nights. Basic hotel by the river. Agree with the other reviewers about inattentive staff. We were able to request for a electric teapot but they did not have a coffee machine in the room. This is a 2 star functional hotel though was pretty expensive. Wouldn’t stay here again at that rate.

Nice view from river side rooms to the Danube which is spectacular at night. Front desk very helpful. Modern minimalistic style decor throughout. But avoid the breakfast option as not very good and several better choices near by.
