My overall experience was disappointing. The room, sauna, and pool were all small, and the towels were stained, which was unacceptable. The hotel was overpriced, and on top of that, they charged for parking. After leaving, I noticed an additional charge on my credit card with no explanation, which felt dishonest. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone based on my experience.

Walked past the hotel severaltines not realising i had arrived. No signage outside even though it has a beautiful front entrance. Reception staff helpful. Had problem with bathroom drainage. Was very slow to drain away. Gave us a new room and was very spacious. However same problem in this room so concluded that every bathroom had same problem. Drainage problem. After midnight on new years day there was a massive problem with getting into our room. key cards wouldnt work. Not just mine but seemed to be everones key cards didnt work. Waited approx an hour to get into room using master key which one of reception used. I would assume he let everyone else into their rooms. Curtains hanging off rail looked to be unhooked.switch button on lift missing. Not fixed while i stayed. Whilst having breakfast on first day i observed a waiter using his vape(electronic smoking device) in the kitchen near the pass, in my 45 years of being a chef i was pretty much disgusted with what i saw. I did inform the reception. Poor quality towels looked to be very old and worn. Housekeeper were hit and miss with towels and coffee/tea/hot chocolate sugar etc... had to call down a couple of day.to get them replenished. I would like to think that what ever was offered on day one is also offered on the last day and any day Inbetween. It seems ok to charge vastly different prices for days staying so surely the service should be at least as good as day one. Breakfast was very good and was alot of choice.

Excellent Job!

Our stay was fantastic. Receptionists all polite. Room was cleaned. Our only little concern was our last breakfast wasn't good, no much selections unlike the our first stay but can be improved. Over-all stay was great. I can't wait to come back here and recommend to all my friends and families.

Spectacular but welcoming in the best neighborhood

It’s just spectacular from the beginning to the end. Service is smooth, professional and relaxed, breakfast crowded but of consistent quality, the spa and pool are a great plus. Everything was pretty much perfect and enjoyable, the location is highly recommended to get the best of urban life in Budapest. The historic building is impressive despite the extensive and somewhat awkward reconstruction. Some refurbishment may be needed soon. I also got an upgrade and late checkout, both highly appreciated.

We went to Budapest as a birthday present for my other half. We booked a standard room but i emailed the hotel to try to arrange an upgrade to a suite or Junior suite as a surprise. No reply was forthcoming so I thought i'd discuss this on arrival. When we arrived we were told we'd been upgraded so I thought maybe they'd acted on my email but the room wasn't what I wanted so I went to reception, asked about an upgrade to a suite and to my surprise they gave us a suite at no extra charge. The Suite was fantastic, breakfast excellent and all of the staff couldn't do more for us - they were all wonderful. We were especially happy with János Babolcs in the Lobby who was the loveliest and most helpful person. We usually go for more intimate, boutique style hotels but we couldn't find one that was in the right location so we chose the Continental and we were really glad we did. For us it was a fantastic experience and one which we would wholeheartedly recommend
