Very good location in the centre of Budapest near the metro station. Receptionists are very polite and speak good english. Rooms are really nice, clean with nice furniture, LCD tv with some international channels and additionally payed movies, movies for adults etc. Fridge with minibar. No kettle, tea, coffee. Bathroom is nice with bathtube with shower option. Aircon was there... more

Was slightly worried coming here after reading the mixed reviews but what I found was a reasonable hotel with a good location and friendly service. Rooms are small and basic but clean. Typical business functionality is in order here, don't expect anything lavish but a comfortable bed to sleep in. The restaurant is pretty overpriced compared to the bargains you... more

After having read some of the poor reviews on this site, my heart sank when my clients told me they had reserved me a room here. However, at the business rate charged (about half of the published rack rate) it was excellent value. The room was large and quiet, over the inner courtyard. The airy bedroom had twin beds, good... more

This must have been what it was like during the communist era. Unsmiling staff, poor rooms - if this is "refurbished" I can only guess at what it was like before. The room was small and the electric points were all in the wrong place for the internet cable. I only stayed there for one night thank God and had... more

Hotel location is on a busy street but that’s OK as it’s close to the Metro, a grocery store, free internet at McDonalds etc. Hotel is OK though rooms are not exceptional. Laptop – free connection only for 20 minutes and then 1500 Forints per hour - the usual T-mobile rip-off rates being used in most European hotels. There were... more

My boyfriend and I have just come back from a week in Budapest and stayed at the Mercure Budapest Metropol Hotel in Rakoczi Street. Having read a few web reviews about this hotel, I had some doubts as to what we were going to get for our money but I have to say that these all disappeared on arrival. The... more

Poor hotel. Rooms are very small. You cannot swing a racquet. Ugly deco. Small TV. Expensive internet connection (so expensive I didn't even try). Breakfast not included, mediocre and very expensive. Location is average. The area is a bit rough at night. Overall, very poor for Budapest. Bad experience. Wrong choice. Best to avoid unless there is no other choice... more

I spent two nights here in March. My room was quiet, not over-large but very adequate. The bed was comfortably soft, as I like it: duvets were supplied but when I asked for a couple of blankets and a sheet, they were delivered to my room promptly. The bathroom was immaculate. Service was friendly, courteous and helpful. Buffet breakfast, 7am-10am,... more

Having stayed in this hotel for thre nights, I can honestly say that our experience was somewhat better than some previous reviewers. We had a large room on the 5th floor - central windows on the night time photo. The room was clean and appropriately appointed, although as someone who needs two towels to dry of after showering, I found... more
