2-Star Hotels in Budapest

When I booked this hostel, there weren't many photos or reviews to go by, so I decided to write a detailed one this time, complete with lots of pictures! First off, the hostel's location is truly excellent. It's very close to both the light rail and the subway. Downstairs, there's a McDonald's and a Starbucks, and a supermarket is just a short walk away. The room layout is really cool, almost like a loft. All beds have curtains, so privacy is excellent. There's actually a kitchen right in the room! It's fully equipped with pots, pans, a microwave, a fridge, and an induction cooktop. There's one shower room and one toilet. The room offers plenty of storage space. Each bed has a standard power outlet and a night light. There are also a table and chairs in the room. While it's quite basic, it has everything you need. The color scheme always gives me a cozy, grandma's house kind of vibe. Breakfast is provided, usually from 7 AM to 11 AM. I think the timing is very flexible, so both early risers and late sleepers can enjoy it. I personally found the breakfast quite good, with tea, coffee, juice, milk, and some bread, vegetables, and hard-boiled eggs. You can store your luggage, and a €5 cash deposit is required at check-in. The bathroom has a hairdryer, and 2-in-1 shower gel/shampoo is also provided.

The rooms and common areas were really clean! The staff were also very kind! The area around the hotel isn't too dark at night, so it feels safe enough to walk around alone if you're careful, and tourist spots are within walking distance, which is super convenient! There aren't curtains on the beds, but it didn't bother me much. The lockers are secured with your room key!

Flow spaces is a wonderful place to stay in. Conveniently located very close to the green bridge and the hill, and also surrounded by many cheap grocery stores and other useful places. Short walk from the subway and the airport express stop. The area is nice and quiet. The hostel itself is modern and everything is well thought -through. I loved the place for essentials above the bed. Also, the space between the beds is more than enough to sit without bumping into the upper one. Two outlets, a lamp, a curtain, a locker. In the bathroom, there's a hairdryer. Obviously, the cleanness depends on the guests. I loved that there were two separate areas: one for sitting and a kitchen. In the kitchen, there's almost everything you might need - I just couldn't find teaspoons on my second day. On the first one, I found one in the drying area, so maybe it's me who's not the brightest. You can also store your bags after check-out, which is great. The staff are awesome 👍🏻

Great Spot for Travelers — Just Be Mindful of Dorm Life I stayed here during my trip and really loved the location — super central and easy to get around. The staff were welcoming and the place was clean, which I really appreciated after long days of exploring. The only downside was the shared dorm experience. One guest came back very late, turned on the lights, talked loudly on the phone, and unfortunately got sick in the bathroom. It made it a bit hard to get proper rest. Still, the hostel itself is great. If you’re a light sleeper or prefer quiet nights, a private room might be worth considering!

**Charming and Cozy Stay** I had a wonderful stay at **Giselle Vintage Doubles**. The place has a unique vintage charm, with beautifully decorated rooms that feel warm and inviting. The bed was comfortable, and the amenities were well thought out, making the stay very enjoyable. The hosts were welcoming and attentive, ensuring a pleasant experience. The location was convenient, with easy access to local attractions and dining options. If you're looking for a cozy and stylish stay with a touch of vintage elegance, this is a great choice. Highly recommend!

The location is very good and convenient. There are many restaurants, fast food and Lidl is just round the corner. Metro and bus stops are in front of the hostel. On the contrary to the good things, the hostel doesn't provide any toiletries. Not even a small piece of soap. The most inconvenient is that the bathroom is outside the room, and there's only one toilet! When checkout, the visitor has to clear the bedsheet and bring it down to the reception. With all the pros and cons, it really depends on what one needs. If it's just to have a place for a short stay, it's not bad at all.

Cons: Not so great initially - strong smell on the room, noise on the street but sorted out quickly. Thanks to prompt action by the management. In most of my stay, floor on the shared bathroom is always wet and no proper ventilation. Lockers are outside the bedrooms so it’s worth having a spare bag for some essential items that you need to keep next to you. Duvet slightly short for tall person. My roommate’s bed was creaking loudly even with simple movement. Pros: Near bus stop and metro station. Near to the popular thermal bath - Széchenyi, and tourist spots Heroes’ Square. Accommodating reception. Things to improve: Proper ventilation and floor rug in the bathroom. Long duvet, cleaner bedsheets and duvet cover and pillow. Overall: If you stay most of the time outside and it’s okay. Main gate always open, occupants got a key for main door but most of time it’s also open. I guess for the price, you get what you paid for.

The bed was a bit dirty (with some small pieces of bread) and there was a yogurt in the trash bin when I first came. It's near the bus station and u got plenty of bus to take to get to city centre (20min). The shower and toilet are quite clean. Plenty of space to hang your clothes.

Not a hostel to get any sleep in. But excellent for the airport bus. Hostel is on a busy main road, lots of traffic noise. Privacy curtains aren't well attached and don't block enough light. The beds are incredibly noisy and the room was hot and stuffy. Sheets not cleaned Service was excellent. The man was so so friendly and kind. Kitchen well equipped. Free tea & coffee. Shower very basic and toilet was good. Just 2 showers and toilets for many people. ... 100E bus is 2 mins away. Metro, tram and bus all nearby. Tone of food options. Wifi was ok Towel is 3 euros to rent. Bring your own padlock

Normal hotel, good location, but all the advantages are closed with fat minus - in such heat did not work air conditioner! It is hell, it is impossible to breathe, it is impossible to sleep, it was necessary to warn at once, we would find another place
