Picturesque location but a tired old hotel
Location on the Danube, good breakfasts.
6.7
we had two adjacent cabins on this boat hotel, each with the same features and problems.
ventilation was a problem; the windows could not be opened and the airconditioner did not cool, merely pumped in the warm air from the outside. the mini fridges did not work either, food we placed in them was spoilt. otherwise this quaint boat hotel would have been ok. the bathrooms, although small, were clean, and there was ample hot water. staff were courteous but not helpful in fixing problems, though they must have been aware of them.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
The houses of Parliament (Országháza) is within walking distance (10 min.). There is a metro station there. The Chain Bridge is just a little further from there walk across it to get to the Buda side, there are walking path up to the castle precinct and Fishermen's Bastion
Approx.5 minutes walk from the hotel the #2 tram line starts, it takes you to Liberty Bridge (Szabadság Híd) and a huge covered market (Vásárcsarnok 1, on the Pest side) where you can buy almost anything. If you go across to the Buda side it is worth walking up to the Citadella (with a huge statue of Liberty on top) for he best panoramic views of Budapest.

A convenient friendly hotel on the Danube
sitting on the deck watching the world go by.

a rather small room with good shower and ample size toilet area.this is on a boat so the room size is smaller than a hotels. the air condition unit was adequate but as no opening windows the room was always on the warm side. the breakfast lounge is very nice serving a good selection of dishes both hot and cold with a good selection of fresh fruit, bread and cakes. the hotel offered a friendly welcome both in the hostel area (below stairs) and upstairs in the hotel area i have stayed in both. handy for the main tram line 4and 6 and the bars and restaraunts. only a five minute walk from the tram stop and ten minutes from the nyugati railway station.

Great little hotel, unbeatable at the price.
Sleeping on the Danube, efficient and friendly staff, pleasant restaurant, quiet location near major train station, cosy cabin.

What a fantastic feeling, at the end of a long day's sightseeing, to come back to your cosy little cabin on the water. I loved staying here because I'm hopelessly romantic about boats and because the staff were so helpful and kind, despite my turning up at reception after a long delayed flight from Luton looking as though I'd been dragged to Budapest through some fields. The few criticisms I have are that the bedding could be more generous - I found it hard to stay under my duvet - and the shower in the bathroom was fixed to the wall at a forward angle so it sprayed at me rather than over me.
But I can't complain. I got a hot shower, fresh towels, a clean, cosy cabin with a river view and a good breakfast every morning for $30 a night.
One of my more memorable stays, and for all the right reasons.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Walk, walk, walk.

Wonderful stay right on Danube
8.7
We loved staying right on the Danube within sight of the lighted city of Budapest. The rooms are small but that is typical for river boats. The beds were very comfortable and it was quiet. The breakfast was fantastic and the view from the top of the boat, where their restaurant was located was very romantic. The staff was very helpful, spoke English, watched our luggage as we arrived early and gave us help on getting to attractions.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
The hotel is located on the river so there is not a trolley, subway or bus line that runs by the hotel. But a 7 minute walk from the hotel takes you to the trolley line that will take you across the Danube to Castle Hill. You can take the subway and then the bus and it will drop you off right in the middle of Castle Hill. Afterward, we walked across the Chain bridge and along the Danube on the other side to the Parliment bldg. It was a great location with a great view.

The hotel was nice and clean. But in restaurant there was a wedding party and the music could be heard to our room during the whole night and this kept us awake. It was very noisy and it was disturbing.

Das etwas andere Hotel
Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut, die Zimmer etwas klein aber für eine Person und 7 Nächte, im Verhältnis zum Preis, absolut in Ordnung. Extrapunkte da sehr freundliches und vor allem deutschsprachiges Personal vor Ort war.

Ich finde ein Hausboot Hotel einfach mal eine schöne Idee, die man nicht immer hat. Wie schon angesprochen, sind die Zimmer etwas klein aber für eine Person, vollkommen ausreichend auch über einen längeren Zeitraum.
Zur Lage muss ich sagen, dass das Boot sehr zentral liegt, alles ist zur Fuß in wenigen Gehminuten erreichbar. Etwa 10 Minuten (langsamer Fußmarsch) entfernt, verläuft die Metro, die einen an alle Sehenswürdigkeiten fährt.
Das Personal war stets freundlich und an der Rezeption befand sich Deutsch sprechendes Personal, dass von mir als großer Pluspunkt angesehen wird.
Nicht so optimal fand ich die Fenster in den Zimmern, die sich weder öffnen noch kippen lassen zum lüften, zudem fand ich die Minibar Preise für ungarische Verhältnisse überteuert. Dem kann man allerdings ausweichen, in dem man sich in den überwiegend bekannten Supermärkten in der Nähe des Hotels bedient. Alles in allem fand ich meinen Aufenthalt sehr angenehm und kann es nur weiter Empfehlen. Gerne werde ich meinen nächsten Besuch wieder in diesem Hotel buchen. Daumen Hoch!
Restaurant Tip:
Das Restaurant an Bord des Boothotels ist sehr empfehlenswert! Ich habe dort allabendlich tolles Essen bekommen, Sonderwünsche waren nie ein Problem und die Preise waren soweit Ok. Als Hotelgast bekommt man einmalig 15% Rabatt auf seine Rechnung.
Sehr Empfehlenswert!
