BALTAZÁR Boutique Hotel

A cute and well-maintained hotel. At the reception, there's a very kind young man who tries to explain everything to you. I had a suite, so the room was quite large and well-equipped. Unfortunately, the room is very poorly lit in the evening. I understand that they want to create some lighting effects, but this should be a choice for the customer, not an obligation. The curtains can only be used for total blackout; there is no lighter curtain that allows for some daylight, so the neighbors can see inside the room perfectly during the day. Another negative aspect is that the WC light turns on automatically; especially at night, it's not very pleasant to be hit by a too intense beam of light when you need to go to the bathroom. A negative rating also for the "basic" breakfast included in the room price: very poor, and for two out of three days, it was not able to meet our requests. Even though they have a restaurant available, they couldn't heat up some water on the stove to make tea! However, for an additional 7 euros per person, you can have a richer breakfast. I would suggest increasing the room price by a few euros and not skimping on these details that make waking up less enjoyable. In the bathroom, when using the shower, all the water splashes out because there is no adequate insulation, even though they have installed an adjustable glass that should provide some protection, but it is entirely insufficient. The hotel's location is good, but you should keep in mind that it is located in the "upper" part of the city, so if your itinerary is not in the upper part, you will need to use public transportation or a taxi. One evening, at the end of dinner, we ordered four grappas that we thought would be complimentary, but they ended up costing us almost 50 euros... a real exaggeration !!

Baltazar far exceeded our expectations - terrific room, friendly staff and convenient (for the 16 bus into Pest) location that was peaceful at night.

Andreich and the entire team made us feel very welcome. Baltazar is the perfect place to stay in Budapest. It is close to all the attractions in the Buda side. We loved our stay and will definitely come back. Baltazar Grill was an added bonus. After a tough day of touristing, Baltazar was a welcome respite.

the hotel is in the best location, it is unagitated and very relaxing; it is especially nice to sit in front of the house on the alley, snack deliciously and drink good wine; just sit there ; )

It was a total pleasure staying at Baltazar. The rooms were beautifully furnished, the historic area enchanting and loved the al fresco coffees on the cobblestone streets outside. Most of all the staff were absolutely lovely, helpful and attentive and made every effort to make the stay go smoothly and enjoyably. Look forward to returning!

It is a lovely boutique hotel in a great location in Buda. Friendly and helpful staff and very comfortable beds.

We stayed at the Baltazár for four nights and it was an amazing and wonderful experience. The hotel is situated in the castle district amongst some fantastic architecture. It is within a few minutes walk of the fisherman’s bastion and Matthias Church. All of the staff made us feel completely welcome and ‘at home’ particularly Daniel. Our room was very clean, peaceful and comfortable, and was serviced every day. The breakfasts were lovely, we upgraded from the Frenchy breakfast on a couple of mornings. The only point to note is that there aren’t many other bars or restaurants to choose from in this area, most of which are closed at around 7:30 in the evenings. This means either a walk or taxi ride to Pest. However, we would definitely stay here again if we are fortunate enough to visit Budapest again.

Everything needed. A large room and bathroom with underfloor heating, really friendly staff in the lovely restaurant and a quiet location near to the castle. Great for site seeing and sunsets overlooking the river and city.
