Hotels Near St. Stephen's Basilica in Budapest

I recently stayed at the easyHotel in Budapest and I must say that it was a great experience. The hotel’s location is truly exceptional as it is located within walking distance to the city centre and the Heroes’ Square. Moreover, it is also conveniently close to the metro line 1 and the tram lines 4 and 6, which makes it incredibly easy to get to all of the city’s attractions. The hotel itself has everything necessary for a comfortable and cheap stay in Budapest. The rooms are compact but clean and have all the essential amenities, including a comfortable bed and a private bathroom. The staff at the hotel are very friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with any questions or concerns. Another great perk of staying at the easyHotel is the free tea and cheap coffee available at the reception. This is a nice touch that adds to the overall value of the hotel. Overall, I highly recommend the easyHotel in Budapest. It offers a great location, comfortable rooms, and excellent value for money.

I was supposed to stay for three nights at the MP Hostel in Budapest; but left a couple of hours after I checked in. I arrived in the hostel before the check-in time; thus requested to leave my suitcase while awaiting check-in. Receptionist David just told me, ”You can put it in the storage room.” He did not even show me where the storage room is. I had to find the room myself. Mind you, David was not busy at that time. He was just chatting with a friend in the reception area. When I finally checked in the hostel late afternoon and went to my room, I noticed that the room was very cold. I opened the heater knob; and waited for more than an hour. No changes; it was still very cold. I then went to the reception; and informed receptionist David about this. He was in the reception, indeed, just talking to another hostel staff Daniel who is apparently the hostel F&B manager. He casually told me, ”Open the heater valve.” To which I replied, ”I did that more than an hour ago; but it's still very cold. Perhaps you can accompany me to the room; and we can both check the heater.” David answered, ”It's not my job. I'm the receptionist; not the technician... and the technician is not here. Wait for your room to get warm.” I said, ”It's been more than an hour since I opened the heater; but the room never got warm at all. If it's not your job to address the heater problem, then who can help me fix this? Can you at least transfer me to another room with a working heating system?” After David called up someone and checked the available rooms, he finally agreed to move me to another room. While I was at the reception waiting for my new room to be ready, I was talking to a friend on the phone to express my disappointment. When David said that my room was ready, I hung my phone up right away; and was surprised when he said, ”I”M A F*CKING RECEPTIONIST. THE HOSTEL MANAGEMENT PLACED ME HERE BECAUSE I SPEAK ENGLISH. CHECKING THE ROOM OR THE HEATER IS NOT MY JOB.” I replied, ” Where did the 'F*CKING RECEPTIONIST' words come from? To be clear, I never addressed you a 'F*CKING RECEPTIONIST.' ” I said these sentences at least twice, to reiterate my point. Without knowing the context of the conversation because he (Daniel) was playing a video game on his phone, F&B manager Daniel suddenly charged at me, kept on pointing his right index finger at me, and raised his voice, ”Don't you dare disrespect my friend and call him 'F*CKING RECEPTIONIST' OR ELSE...” I then said, ”I didn't even call David a 'F*CKING RECEPTIONIST.' Go ask him.” When David agreed that I did not call him that, I then went inside my new room which was still very cold. Heater in the new room was not working. Again. After all the negative experience at MP Hostel Budapest, I decided to leave right away; and found another private room in a hostel nearby. Zero customer service. Aggressive. Threatening. I hope the hostel will improve on its customer service, and value its guests.

Second time I was in this Hotel . First time was everything OK , but now everything was disaster . After check in we noticed the TV not worked , I tried to call reception but the phone was not worked too. I used my mobile to call the landlines number of the Hotel what is on website and what is in the leaflet in the room, the staff doesn't bothered to answering to the call after 15 min. So I went down , they were busy to chatting inside of the back. Instead of come to check the TV , they gave me 2 batteries to change , the phone they said they couldn't do anything as there is no maintenance. TV had no battery issue , as next day maintenance confirmed , so if the staff members came up to check we have a TV..... I asked to book yellow taxi for me , not Elite black taxi which charge double . Staff said ok , the they booked me Elit black Cab . Because I was on time , I had to use. So paid 5.500HUF instead of 3.000HUF. When I addressed this issues and want to speak with some manager , they told me write a email, so I did. Get response next day , they apologised and gave us a gift in our room . Some chocolate and wine . Chocolate box was open , so I made photo and sent email again to the manager , still until today no response given.... Obviously we left the gift in the room. Top of that last night instead of 3 set towels we got only 2 , while 3 person was in the room... Room was dirty , dust webs in corners.... There is many much better and cheaper 4 dear Hotel around . Never again !!!

The hotel is not bad. It is located on a hillside, high and low, from the low end to the stairs to the entrance, and from the high end to the stairs to the entrance. The room is compact and the hygiene is average. The sheets can be replaced with your own. There is a kettle. Attitude. Mainly because of the convenient location, just below the Castle Hill, there is a cable car station on the side. Magas Church and Fisherman's Bastion are not far. Convenience!

I stayed 1 night in a 4 bed with private bathroom room. I really liked it, the bed was very comfortable and I could have private space thanks to its curtain. The bathroom was also clean, though I found it a little bit too small. The location is also perfect, so I can only recommend. What I didn't like was that the towel is not included - you can rent it for extra cost. This should be removed from the description of the room amenities and also the pictures are misleading.

Stayed 5 nights for a conference with 3 other colleagues. Quaint hotel that looks its age. Had very friendly and helpful staff handling check in/out. Had taken a suite, but it was rather small. Main door opened into an anteroom with 2 internal doors - 1 of which led into bedroom (just enough space for a double bed with 2 small side tables). The other door led into a small living room (space for dressing table, couch, TV, and a small round table with a chair). Bathroom is a little dim. Breakfast buffet had standard ham and cheese cuts, scrambled eggs, breads, cereals, fruits - repeated daily. Noticed the staff change the cutlery after each dinner, but the placemats on the table is not changed. Location is excellent with nearby train and bus station leading to all major attractions. Also have supermarkets nearby.

The hotel is very beautiful and modern and the staff very welcoming. not knowing the city, they do not hesitate to advise me on places to visit and explain to me how to get around with public transport. The room was very comfortable and modern corresponding to all my expectations. The only small negative point that I could cite is the restricted opening hours of the restaurant and the bar. Taking into account the neighborhood (8th arrondissement), I would have preferred to eat at the hotel than to have to go out or order. In summary, a great stay and can't wait to come back!

Our daughter booked us this hotel as part of a 3 night trip to Budapest as a Christmas gift. After visiting Budapest herself, she thought we’d love it so booked us the trip. I don’t normally write reviews, but I thought the hotel had been served an injustice with lots of the other reviews we’d read. We’d read lots that said it was in an awful and unsafe area. The hotel is on a side street, in a city away from the centre, no different to any side street in a city we’d seen before. We saw one homeless person in a doorway, and sometimes people gathered chatting outside the Spar shop at the top of the road, and the other shops…not much of a problem. We didn’t feel unsafe or find the street to be noisy. You are a little bit out of the centre, but the bus stop and metro are conveniently located just around the corner. We used the bus which was very cheap, or free, as sometimes we were just waved on. Once inside our room we heard very little noise, from within the hotel itself, or from the road outside…only the occasional siren. The towels and sheet’s were good, and the room clean, pillows also nice quality and extras in the wardrobe. Room a comfortable temperature. The beds are low to the ground, and the mattresses firmer than we are used to, but after a 12 hour day sightseeing, and a few cocktails/beers we slept reasonably well. Little ******s with the room, a kettle with tea/coffee making facilities would have been nice for a morning cuppa before heading out. There is a small bar in the reception area where you could get coffee though, and plenty of cafes on the main street. The hairdryer overheated quite quickly and cut out. But only minor issues. The staff were not particularly chatty (us Brits love a chat!) however, helpful and courteous when needed. All in all a good stay and a good base to explore…what do you do from a hotel room? For us to sleep and shower 🤷🏻‍♀️ Budapest is an amazing city, so much to see and do, we absolutely loved exploring, enjoy!
