The spa is a wonderful experience and the massages were tops, but it was hard getting over the disappointing state of the hotel itself. The Danubius Group is really 'sweating' this asset. The only thing new in my hotel room were the sheets. Pretty much everything else - carpets, towels, bathrobes, drapes were threadbare. The room/halls needed painting. Bathrooms as... More

This place was obviously the swishest spot in town once upon a time and it's now looking a little like it's stuck in a time warp. I read umpteen reviews saying that it needed "a makeover". Well, if you want homogenised American hotel chain accommodation, this place may not be for you. My partner and I, however, loved it. Retro... More

I had chosen this hotel for its 'art nouveau' look, its famous old spa and expecting well some nostalgia. OK there is a bit of all that and that's wonderful but I must say some rooms are really horrible: noisy and uncomfortable, not only the rooms but bathrooms would also require some renovation. So much that I was really happy... More

Although this hotel’s heyday was at the turn of the 19th century it still has a great deal to offer. We had a superior room on the first floor overlooking the river which was spacious well appointed and with a balcony and views across the river to Pest. The undoubted highlight is the swimming and spa facilities. The indoor pool... More

Ok, so the tired old dame lacks the funds for a refurb, but a service makeover would cost nothing. Faceless, perfunctory, disorganised, disempowered. From trying to do us over by checking us into what must have been single room staff quarters at one time, to the most ridiculously stupid spa ticketing system, coupled with lazy breakast room table turnovers, and...

I am a regular guest at the Gellért Hotel, I've stayed in many different rooms. This time a very plain singleroom. A small bathroom dressed in the sixtys, green tiles on the walls, red/brown tiles on the floor. A small but sufficient bedroom thats clean. They come every day to tidy up and make your bed. The staff is always... More

This hotel should be closed down for a year and totally refurbished. The room we upgraded to was a Deluxe double, the bathroom was dirty, the drain cover next to the bath was not screwed down which left it uncovered, I wont even mention the shower! Breakfast was served until 10.00 am, however at 9.30 am the restaurant staff refused... More

Stayed at this grand old dame for four nights and she really is a beauty! From the moment you arrive to the imposing facade and enter there is an air of nostalgia. The staff are a delight and nothing is too much trouble, the lobby area is spacious to say the least and so much to feast the eyes on.... More

I booked a beautiful room which was in the homepage and they gave me a tiny, boring and old horror room saying this is all available. On top of that it was a smoking room! With smoke smell all over. I tried to get another and showed me another one in the tail end looks haunted!! I was very upset... More
