"For design‑forward travelers headed to the Champions League Final, this recently restored palace hotel is framed as a glamorous base that combines ornate historic bones with contemporary interiors in a prime riverside location." - Jessica Chapel
"Housed in a majestic Belle Époque palace, I found Matild Palace to be a magical, glamorous base with 130 exclusive rooms that blend modern glamour and old-world elegance—think cloud-like beds and regal gold-and-white marble bathrooms with postcard views of the Danube; I enjoyed drinks at the rooftop bar, dinner at Spago by Wolfgang Puck, and the ocean-hued spa in the morning." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
"One of a matching pair of Belle Époque palaces built by Marie Clotilde, Archduchess of Austria, this lovingly restored, swish hotel enjoys a grand location close to the Elizabeth Bridge and marries historical heritage with contemporary style; a classic Hungarian-style spa adds to the appeal, and you don’t even need to leave the building to dine, as Spago by Wolfgang Puck sits within its walls." - Andrew Young
"And then we have a Luxury Collection hotel called the Matild Palace that has been open for a year and a half."
"After a meticulous five-year restoration, this Belle Époque–era landmark now houses 130 luxury rooms while preserving its UNESCO World Heritage architectural heritage; interiors by Maria Vafiadis of MKV Design celebrate Hungarian culture with guestroom prints by local artists and handcrafted headboards by national artisans. The property reimagines one of Eastern Europe’s historic coffee houses as Matild Café & Cabaret with menus curated by Wolfgang Puck, and it occupies a waterfront location with views of the Danube and easy walking access to the Hungarian Parliament Building, Buda Castle, and St. Stephen’s Basilica." - Paul Rubio
