This boat hotel is located perfectly on the Danube river square in the middle of the city. You can easily and with a 2 minute walk access trams, busses and metros. The rooms are cozy with nice interior and has the best AC I have ever seen. Our stay was during a heat wave of 35 degrees C. Our room stayed well under 20. Nice personel and great late checkout service. Will never stay at a different hotel while in budapest.

the original allocated room was a little on the small side compared with the impression i had when seeing the pictures but was given another room for the next day onward and was fully satisfied. Would benefit to have breakfast included in the price but other than that a very good trip.

This boat hotel very close to train station, few minutes walk up to Margaret Bridge and to hop on hop off bus stop. The night view of Parliament building and lights at night so beautiful. Room and bathroom are clean, very cozy staying here.

Terrible service. The staff wasn’t friendly and helpfull. Ones you have payed the hotel, there isnt room for any help of service. We been to a lot hotels over the world but this one is horrible. If you really want to stay at a boathotel choose the boathotel that is next to Grand Jules. Friendly staff and CLEAN rooms

It was still quite dated however that contributes to the feel of staying on a boat. The staff were extremely helpful and went above and beyond to make a great experience. The double beds could do with a double duvet rather than two singles.

Fantastic experience, the hotel was very clean and our room was very big and comfortable. Staff was very nice and helpful. Very close to the Margit híd and the Margit-sziget is attainable with few steps

River view was stunning and so was the view from the deck, however rooms are tired and could do with modernizing but that could have effect on the price.

Great location! Staff are super friendly. Couldn’t do enough for you. This is not an upper class hotel and nor is it trying to be. Simple accommodation, great location, AMAZING VIEWS DAY AND NIGHT. Convenient to main tramline and hop on hop off city bus tours. 5 minute walk gets you to a really good all you can eat restaurant that provides high quality food for what is a very reasonable price. The guys at this hotel were some of the pleasant people who I met in Budapest. Nothing was too much trouble day or night!

Please save your money and go elsewhere. We booked this hotel as it seemed fun and beautiful to stay on the water with a great view. The great view was literally the only good point of the hotel. The room was filthy! There was huge black stains all over the carpet, hair in the bed and on the pillows, black mould under the pillows on the bedding, the A/C didn’t work and it was over 30 degrees out and there were signs up saying it’s better to keep the windows closed as there are no screens & a large population of insects that live aboard due to the boat being on water, the refrigerator wasn’t working either, the towels were all grey and dingy and they refused to replace them except for one that was exceptionally filthy as they claimed they had no more towels in the hotel and the room had a very strong chemical smell. Not cleaning products but something like a mix of Diesel & furniture polish. I asked if it would be possible for me to upgrade at my expense and they said they were fully booked. My girlfriend and I left with in 2 hours of checking in. They refused to give us a refund through Expedia claiming they accommodated us in every possible way and they lied to Expedia saying that they offered me other rooms but that they would all be the same. Expedia also refused to refund me saying that I booked a room without a cancellation option but it was obviously not a cancellation as we checked in and were not able to stay due to the condition of the room.

Consider the larger cabins, the small cabins are small, just enough for sleeping. But you do have all the deck to move around in.

Really liked it here. Breakfast was simple but fresh and the staff were very helpful.Only downsides were you can't walk down the side of the bed due to space, shower power was variable and don't leave your key if you go out at night (as they suggest) as reception is not constantly manned and the room keys are just on hooks.

The room was clean and just big enough for two. Staff was really helpful and friendly. The location might have been the only downside for me since you have to cross a long bridge to get to the city center (there is a good functioning tram line though). Having the ability to sit on the deck to relax in the evening was also a nice bonus.

Staff very friendly and excellent location with great views from the boat. Walls are paper thin though and you can hear conversations next door spoken at normal volume.Rooms are very warm which was great in winter! And can open the window if you want some fresh air. Helpful that free parking is right next door as well!
2.5 / 10.0
Best location ever with the most amazing view! Right next to tram and metro, close to everything! The view is amazing! Could not stop looking out my window. Rooms are small but to be expected on a boat. The staff is so friendly and helpful and knowledgeable of Budapest. Victoria was amazing, made us feel so welcome!Would definitely recommend, good value. Only thing they can improve on is the breakfast. Not worth the 9Euro.

Nice location, view and staff, but the smell of gasoil in very location was terrible.

Location of this hotel which is a river boat converted to hotel is the biggest plus. Located at the foot of Margarit Bridge in Budapest on the Danube River. Steps from public transportation, groceries, Trofea Restaurant, two thermal baths. Staff very helpful. Free WiFi
