A very big and beautiful hotel, perfectly located in Budapest’s Jewish Quarter. I really loved the welcoming atmosphere, the beautiful historical architecture, and the friendly staff. The breakfast was also excellent, with plenty of choice and something for everyone. The only disappointments for me were the swimming pools and the mattress. Both pools are quite small, so they are not really suitable if you want to properly swim or do laps. The mattress was also very soft, which personally wasn’t to my liking — I prefer a firmer mattress. Overall, though, a lovely hotel with a great location, beautiful character, and very welcoming service. I would happily stay here again. Underground car park 🅿️ available for 25 euro per day.

The service was more than wonderful, and the reception and baggage handler, Sultan, was very helpful and welcoming. The breakfast was more than wonderful, but the smell of frying bacon was very strong in the restaurant and reception area. I hope this issue will be resolved. The room had everything you need, and the room service was excellent. I recommend this hotel when you come to Budapest.

Response from the property

Dear Guest, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your wonderful feedback following your recent stay at Continental Hotel Budapest. We are delighted to know that you enjoyed the outstanding service provided by our team, the quality and variety of our breakfast, the comfort of your room, and the high standard of housekeeping. Your kind recommendation is greatly appreciated and serves as wonderful motivation for all of us. We are also grateful for your candid comments regarding the smell of frying bacon in the restaurant and its surrounding area. While our live egg station is one of the most appreciated features of our breakfast, allowing our chefs to prepare fresh egg dishes to each guest's preference, it unfortunately also has the drawback that the aroma of freshly cooked eggs and bacon can occasionally be noticeable nearby. We will certainly consider possible ways to reduce this effect, even if it may not be possible to eliminate it entirely. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back to Continental Hotel Budapest for another enjoyable stay. Best regards, Péter Vezekényi General Manager

The hotel is located in the old Jewish Quarter. Don't let the graffiti across the street put you off; both the neighborhood and the hotel have a great deal to offer! There are dozens of restaurants and shops within easy walking distance - like the ruin bars and Gozsdu Udvar! It's also close to public transportation, which we used occasionally to get to attractions that were further away. The hotel itself has a very welcoming atmosphere (shout-out to Janos, who showed us our room and chatted with us daily!) and a fabulous breakfast spread in the restaurant, where we also enjoyed dinner one night. Our room was spacious and the bed was especially comfortable. The bedding and pillows were excellent as well. Be prepared to have a very large sink with very little countertop; we kept our toiletries packed away. That was the only (and very small!) inconvenience during our otherwise perfect stay. Would definitely recommend!

They also offered to store luggage for early arrivals as well as after check-out, which added a great level of assistance and convenience. The room was a good size, tidy, and clean, featuring excellent air conditioning and a soft, comfortable bed. The breakfast was plentiful and varied, quite delicious, and offered excellent value for money.
