My parents, my teenage son and I spent a week here before joining up with our river cruise. This is my second stay at the botel and my parents fifth stay. It is walking distance to transport and just a stroll to everything. We love how convenient it is! Breakfast is plentiful, the dinners very tasty and the price is... More

I was here in December, during Christmas and had booked this through HiHostels. The place was a bit difficult to find because of lots of other boats docked along the river. I got a room that looked out to the island and the other side. I had no difficulty sleeping, considering that I was skeptical about the boat bobbing up... More

We stayed here over New Years. It was a great location, with everything touristy within walking distance. The breakfast was average. The room was quite small and cramped. The air con didn't work and the room was very hot. It was good as a novelty, but maybe only for 1 night.

Me and my fiance decided to do something a little different when we knew we'd be taking a city break. Saw a boat hotel and thought why not. Loved it! Arrival went really smooth and it was nice to receive a 15% discount for the resturant. Pleasant room, decided for the superior room with an actual double bed rather than... More

As a hotel it's nothing special, but it's something different and the boat does have a nice warm personality. It's also in a great location. Rooms are really small, but they do. Staff , especially reception are quite nice and the food is really good. Although if you have food included then be prepared for a lack of variety. It's... More

Traveled solo and stayed for four nights from 27th November. I chose this hotel based on the price and because it was something different. The hotel is not too far from the main attractions once you have mastered the metro and the trams. I was given a twin room on the upper deck. The room itself, although small, was ok.... More

I decided to ignore the reviews on here and book anyway(following a great experience on a boatel in Bratislava). I wasnt quite aware how far this hotel is out of town and its a 15minute walk to the nearest metro. The heating took about 2hours to warm up the room also (if your arriving when its -5 and its 1am...

Clean rooms, friendly and helpful staff. Good hearty breakfast. Interesting atmosphere of the hotel. Location close to the attractions of Budapest. I would recommend this hotel to everyone. The disadvantage was not opened windows and poor air conditioning.

A very interesting alternative to the usual, the Fortuna was excellent value for money. Following the advice of other reviews, I went for the best accommodation available, and got a spacious room with wide views both up and across the Danube. And if you like a grandstand close-up view of cormorants feeding, come here. . It's a low price hotel,... More

If you like to stay in a hotelroom most of the day, is this not a hotel for you. This is a hotel for those that want to experience something different than what they are used to. In a good way! We stayed here two nights, one day in a "dorm" and one night in a "standard doubleroom", the "dorm"... More
