Hunguest Saliris

Guests appreciate the diverse Hungarian breakfast and scenic location offering tranquility. However, some find it pricey with few amenities, lacking value for money.

The illuminated Salt Hill is breathtaking at night, but the hotel's services fell short of expectations. Upon check-in, our room lacked some essentials, and the view was unfortunately marred by an overgrown green roof with weeds. We even saw a neighboring room with a full-grown pine tree outside the window — at least that was more attractive than the dry weeds! There were no mosquito screens on the windows, which was frustrating, especially during a stink bug infestation. When we requested cleaning, only the towels were replaced, but there was no sign of actual cleaning in the room. Downstairs, the spa didn’t offer even a small locker for guests, even upon request, which made it inconvenient to keep going up from the spa to our room on the fifth floor.To make matters worse, none of the clocks were synchronized, with time differences of up to 15 minutes between them — and they hadn’t even been updated for daylight savings. This caused a lot of unnecessary confusion and frustration. The pool area supervisors also didn’t address children jumping into a non-jumping pool, which was disruptive. The room’s furnishings were dated and somewhat low-cost, like relics from the late socialist era. Everything had a layer of dust, especially ornate areas like the table legs, which seemed neglected. The glass doors on the bathroom and toilet offered zero privacy and allowed every sound through. Dinner was overly salty, while breakfast lacked seasoning. Both the coffee machines and the juice dispenser were never in working order at the same time during breakfast.

Expensive and disappointing. Emailed the day before arrival to say we would be arriving late and would there be any food options available. No reply. Arrived at 9.30pm to be told at reception that the restaurant was closed. We discovered at 10.07pm that room service was available but closed at 10pm. No mention of room service at reception. Thanks guys. On the only upside the breakfast and evening buffet was plentiful, with a good selection and pretty tasty. The rest was a huge disappointment. The design and decor was drab and very dated. For some reason heavy net curtains were drawn in the restaurant blocking out an amazing view. Why? It made this room dark and claustrophobic. In the spar half of the available space was given over to kids (fair enough). In the "adults section" lots of signs saying no children under 12yrs yet there were millions of very young children splashing around making it really annoying. No lifeguards around to enforce the signage. Parking is a farce. Guests have to pay so the whole area is littered with cars as parking outside the hotel is free! I had heard that the locals hate the hotel. It is not difficult to see why. Is it a huge slab of a building carved out of a natural hillside and forest with seemingly no desire to blend in to the natural beauty of the place. As for the salthill, which signs proudly announce can only be found in two other places on earth, well it's stuffed up a corner and dominated by the hotel. Currently sitting in a 45min queue waiting to check out. Bloody farce. Won't be coming back.
