We absolutely loved our stay here and would be delighted to come back. It was easy to get around the city and to the Hungaroring (we stayed over the F1 weekend) from the hotel. Stay were friendly and helpful. Our room was a great size (family of 4), with a lovely bathroom and amazing view of the Danube. Food was delicious at the hotel - we very much enjoyed the buffet breakfasts and also ate an evening meal there. The pools were a huge hit too! Overall, fantastic, and would 100% recommend to anyone considering a visit!
