Recently stayed in the Superior Twin Room and was impressed, room was in immaculate condition and just as the pictures described. Check in at hotel was painless, there was a €5 tax to be paid by card, the rest of the facilities and bar are also all cashless I believe. I never made use of the other facilities although they included shared working spaces, luggage store, DJ at bar on certain days and kitchens. The hotel hosted a great variety of travellers from solo to families of all ages and the lobby/shared spaces felt safe and secure day and night with front desk always on duty and key card entry to the front doors later in the evening.
The location is within a stones throw to Grand Market Hall and is surrounded by many restaurants, cafes, shops, bars and a Aldi Supermarket in the Grand Market. The neighbourhood also was safe and pleasant and had no issues or concerns as a solo traveller.
The room was serviced daily by friendly housekeeping and fresh bedding/towels provided, the room also includes AC, TV and a large balcony with views of Grand Market Hall and the Citadella although balcony did lack any seating to enjoy the view and also smoking/drinking alcohol was not permitted with a €250 penalty and possible eviction. The only improvement would be for a fridge and hangers for clothes.
Thank you for a pleasant stay!

This is an excellent and central location.
We regularly stay at Meininger hotels and this hotel had slightly larger rooms and common areas (bar, kitchen, etc) than others in this chain. The rooms and common areas have USB ports for recharging and the rooms also have USB ports and lots of room for storage. Everything was clean and the staff friendly and helpful.
I would not get the breakfasts here. They charge the same price as other Meininger hotels (7€) but are far below average - no toaster, eggs, pastries or pancakes and the tea and coffee were very ordinary. A very simple and expensive breakfast. For this reason I have rated this Meininger a 4.

We've been given a room that had a really bad smell, so we asked to get another one and the stuff agreed. The bathtub could be cleaner. The view from the hotel is great. It is well placed and not too far from Budapest's centre. The WiFi connection is excellent and works 100%. The water in the bathroom is always heated. The breakfast was not pleasing because it was poor. In general, the experience was good.

I can’t really fault this hostel. My friends and I got a six person private room and it was perfect for us. I loved how the shower, toilet and sink are all separated which made it easy for six girls to get ready. The reception was open 24/7 which was really handy for check in or if you wanted to grab some essentials like water conveniently. The place was clean and the beds were comfortable. The individual charging lockers and lamps were really handy beside each bed. I would definitely come back. Just bear in mind that there is no cleaning during your stay, which was no problem for us. If you need fresh towels or toilet paper or anything you can ask at reception.

The location is great, the rooms are clean and quite large. They were cleaned every day although e never asked for it; also the used towels were replaced every day although they were not laid down on the floor, which we didn't appreciate as the hotel claims to be mindful for the nature but doesn't respect it.
The bathrooms very clean and also quite large - a good point!
Breakfast was good but the noise and the crowds every day between 8:00 and 9:00 were insane and the staff didn't do anything to handle at least the seating problem. It was so annoying that despite the positive points of the hotel, we would never go back during this period of the year.

The hostel does not provide a lockable locker per bed in the the dorm rooms. 4 bed shared dorm with only two total lockers available. Front desk was rude and had no acceptable solution (rent a short term locker in the lobby or upgrade to private room) nor would they give a refund to go elsewhere. I have never been to any hostel that did not provide a lockable locker for every bed. Really unacceptable.

Dear Melissa, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback with us. I am sorry you had such a frustrating experience with us. We have lockers in the room but that is right, not every room has lockers for every bed. You were offered different options to find a solution to your situation but you did not like any of them- We do have a PINLOCK system located on the ground floor, you can rent a small or big locker for different times and store your valuables there. I am sorry this option was not of your liking either. Thank you again for sharing your experience with us, I am sorry that your experience did not match your expectations. Best regards, Kinga Jonas, Supervisor receptionist

I stayed in this hotel with 4 friends for the New Years and it was lovely.
All the staff were really friendly, the room was small but had everything that we needed with a nice view to the river from the 5th floor.
I liked that there was a guest kitchen where we could prepare meals and didn't have to waste money on breakfast.
The vibes were great, a lot of young people and it seems like a great pleace for networking. There is also a DJ in the coffee place downstairs at the end of the week and you also have a lot of space and tables if you want to study or work.
We were lucky to get free parking on the street near the hotel hence the holidays, but they do have a parking garage for 20€ per night if you want to park there.
I loved our stay here and will be back for sure.

Not my usual choice of place to stay but as I was staying with 6 friends it was perfect.
The rooms were clean, comfortable and modern and it gave the impression it has recently been refurbished.
The public spaces were all very good and a nice area to socialise in.
The shower was very powerful and the bathrooms very clean.
The staff were also friendly and pleasant and there’s a luggage storage room which they supervise meaning it’s safe and secure.
Location wise it’s right next to the market hall which has an Aldi store inside which is great for water and drinks. Here you’ll pay just 89HUF compared to 850 HUF At the Meininger!
Would definitely stay again if I needed something similar.

Very good for the prices. It's a family friendly hotel. We stay with my family, two adults and three kids. It is very clean but we forced to asked for bed sheets change after the third day.
There is a big buffet for breakfast but menu is not changed at all. If breakfast is not included in your reservation don't pay extra for it, you will find many brunch restaurants very close.
Rooms are very standard without fridge or relevant facilities.
There is not transpo service but you can ask from receptionist to arrange for taxi if you travel very early in the morning or late at night.
Very nice and warm lobby.
Located next to closed market of Budapest near to freedom bridge.

The location is really good. Good walking distance to almost everything. The rooms are clean, and when we experienced a suspicion of bed bugs the cleaning staff came immediately. There could be a couple of chairs in the room and maybe a mini-bar. The staff are very friendly and helping. For longer stays it would be nice to get cleaned the room every other day.
