Great place, highly recommended, owner very attentive, be sure to read your welcome email if arriving later in the day to get entry info, bldg not readily recognizeable, it is near the Salad Box, we think the BigBus hop-onoff tour bus may be better option, love the place ......

Andras the host was always accessible and extremely helpful in all matters. Not to mention quite funny. His English is excellent. Facilities were fantastic — extremely clean. All furniture appeared to be brand new and plenty of room for storage. Also, a ton of electrical outlets. The breakfast spread was incredible. HIGHLY recommend staying at Butterfly Home. The location couldn’t have been better! Literally across the street from the Danube and Liberty Bridge. 5/5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Deception and misrepresentation
When we checked into Butterfly Home in the early evening we met one of the workers at the entry gate and he led us to a large room with my name written in chalk on the door. At no point did he inform us that we were in an upgraded room or that we would have to pay more for the room as we had paid for three nights in the standard room. The next morning we met with the main owner (Andras I believe?) and he informed us that we had come to the wrong property even though it was the address listed on the hotels.com reservation. He also mentioned this had been an ongoing problem. He told us that it was a more expensive room and we needed to move to another room in the same building, which we did. Imagine our surprise when we were charged an extra $154 on top of our 3 nights booking fee! If we had been directed to the proper location or proper room when we first arrived, this would have been acceptable. However, directing us to an upgraded room without telling us until the next morning is completely ridiculous and unacceptable. Why was our name written in chalk on the door? Why did the first person who met us not tell us that we had to pay extra money for the room? We tried to settle this issue through hotels.com but were told that the owners were firm in their decision. We believe they should not do their business in this dishonest way because other people who try to book this place through hotels.com might go through the same problems as we did. We feel we were scammed.

At a B&B which room matters
Butterfly Pent house has 3 rooms. #1 is very good and on the level with the lift and very nice breakfast area and lounge #2&3 require going up a narrow spiral staircase #2 is large and has a modern bathroom. (Tub ok, shower not working) AC and WIFI worked. #3 a rolling disaster. Bath is very tiny, shower is an add on, in the sleeping area. AC inadequate plus they could not figure out how to turn off heater. WiFi didn’t work, the patio was dismal, actually a low roof top with no breeze. The folks are really great. Eventually we moved out of 3 to 2. Breakfast was fine, with eggs to order. The young woman our first day was very helpful with directions. If I never saw room 3 my rating would be higher

Lovely stay at the butterfly home
Had a lovely stay at the butterfly home for 3 nights. The room with the river view was amazing. The budget room was suitable too. Breakfast was really good. Locationwise it was near the underground and tram station so we could go everywhere easily. Andreash was really kind and gave really good tips and advices too :) So overall i will give it a 5/5

"Problem with your room" then attempt to scam
When we arrived at the airport, the driver that had been arranged by the hotel was there to greet us. We got in her vehicle, and her phone rang. It was the owner of the B and B, Andras. He wanted to speak to us. He told me "there is a problem with your room". He didn't say what. He went on to say "I have booked you at a very nice 4 star hotel just one block away. It was more expensive, but I paid for the room and paid the difference. You will pay me when you leave. And please come over to our B and B for our breakfast". When we arrived at the "4 star" hotel, the staff were very accommodating. It was not the type of hotel that we would have stayed in, and certainly was not "4 star" by North American standards. But we were so jetlagged, and at that point there was nothing we could do. The next morning, I asked how much the Butterfly Home had paid for the room, and was told 94 Euros. This was much less than the 181 Euros for our original reservation through hotels.com. When we went to settle the bill with the Butterfly Home folks, they told us we owed 181 Euros. I refused to pay this. We settled on 96 Euros (not sure why the addition 2 Euros, but were told it was a "tax"). Andras and his team tried to scam us. Why would we pay 181 Euros when he had only paid 94 Euros for the alternative room at another hotel. And we never found out what the "problem" was with our original booking. Please be aware -- this guy is a scam artist!

Good B&B
Nothing to see from the outside, just a 5 storey building with the only sign being on the buzzer. But on the 3rd floor there was a cozy 7 room B&B. Large variety of good food for breakfast. Great location next to Vaci St and the Central Market. Friendly, helpful hosts.

Beautiful Danube River View
I was expecting more like a guest house, but this beautiful facility is a private home B and B. The facility had recently moved locations prior to our stay, to a facility with fewer rooms than advertised, so were overbooked so we did not stay our first night in the B and B, we stayed in an apartment owned by the same business two blocks away. The second night there was space in the main facility. I had booked through Hotels.com as I was traveling alone with my daughter and during those times seek a facility/hotel rather than a single place through Air B and B due to it feeling more secure. So that was my only negative feedback, that there was not available a place in the main location with part time concierge, and that the place that was available, while amazing, was way too secluded for my comfort as a single woman travelling with a child. I was very impressed with the kindness and helpfulness of the staff who made us feel very welcome and were extremely helpful in assisting us to get acclimated, and explaining for, and apologizing to us for the change in reservation. I imagine now that they have completed this move, this should no longer be an issue for those who do not want a geographically separate place.

great nightlife and simple but perfect rooms
The staff was very helpful once we got through a hiccup or two with communication around the online booking. I hope that that can be resolved in the future because it seems like the hotel must have to do a lot of negotiation just to cover deals made from antiquated websites. The actual deal and hotel is wonderful.
