Danubius Hotel Gellert Budapest

"You can see the past glory but the place is dismal and somewhat depressing. In desperate need of modernisation. My room was tiny, and very unwelcoming. The conected baths (not operated by the hotel), my main reason for going to the hotel, are of similar standard. Even more dismal at night, with dim lights with a range of yellowing to dead bulbs, and dirt accumulated in the light shades. Showers and changing cabins are the standard of a very cheap campsite - rusty plumbing, dillapidated. I would not go back even if it were for free. Staff at reception very helpful, but breakfast staff youngsters walk around in a trance - no see and no hear..." - Anonymous

"A wonderful hotel, full of character. Especially appealing with the added bonus of the Health Spa and Wellness Centre at Gellet Bath attached." - KATHRYN EATON

"We loved this hotel - a gem from a bygone era, with service to match. This remnant of elegant Art Nouveau life is poles apart from the dull same-iness of the "Intercontinental" type hotel. (But if you are the sort of person bothered by faded furnishings & sticking plugholes, don't go!) Having said that, there are major renovation works in progress, so doubtless we will be unable to afford it once completed. The pool is a must - free to hotel guests it is like swimming in the Roman Baths. Only downside - the noisy roundabout outside which forced us to close our window at night." - Charlotte Vanderstegen-Drake

"Classy hotel, but the discounted rooms are more like 1-2 star hotel rooms (I have stayed twice in the hotel)" - Kent Andersen
