Location, floating on the Danube River, was fantastic. Wonderful views from our room facing the river. Fantastic views from top deck. Hungarian Parliament lit up at night was my favourite. Loved the breakfast with lots of variety. All staff very helpful. Only downside was the rooms are in need of a bit of tlc but was an awesome experience and would definitely stay again.

Best AC in Budapest

This boat hotel is located perfectly on the Danube river square in the middle of the city. You can easily and with a 2 minute walk access trams, busses and metros. The rooms are cozy with nice interior and has the best AC I have ever seen. Our stay was during a heat wave of 35 degrees C. Our room stayed well under 20. Nice personel and great late checkout service. Will never stay at a different hotel while in budapest.

I’m sorry to say we really did not enjoy this boat hotel, we were booked into the sister boat, Grand Jules which we chose because of the location (opposite the Parliament building) as this would be a pleasant outlook. We were informed less than a week before our departure date End of May 25 the GJ had been closed for maintenance from Feb 25, giving us very little time to amend our booking. We sound the replacement boat not very well appointed, further from the amenities and would not be out choice if we had time to look. Another small point, the room curtains would not close completely so we could be see by anyone walking by, no breakfast tea in the restaurant and very small rooms. Sorry it just lacked the special holiday we had planned.

hajó, annak minden előnyével és néhány hátrányával

A hajó mindig tiszta. A legkondicionáló nem működött, és sajnos az ablakok közül csak az egyik nyitható, az is csak egy kicsit. A személyzet viszont nagyon kedves, minden kérésünket azonnal teljesítették. A Dunán, Parlamentre néző kilátással nincs másik ilyen jó szálláshely. A kabinok többsége kicsi, de tudomásul kell venni, hogy ez egy hajó. Sajnos éppen ezért parkolóhely sincs elég a parton hozzá.

Wir sind als Familie gereist, zwei Tage lang mit zwei Kindern Metro Umgebung kann man alles erreichen. Jedes Sehenswürdigkeit es ist sehr praktisch. Das Frühstück ist für Kinder einwandfrei. Es gibt alles, was man für Frühstück braucht. Semmeln, Brot, Croissants, Schoko Croissant, Marmelade, Butter, Orangensaft, Wasser, Kaffee, Speck, Würstchen, Gemüse, Käse, Wurst, Honig, am Deck kann man rausgehen und spazieren und rauchen. Die Aussicht zum Parlament ist wunderbar, wenn es am Abend ist. Als Kritik könnte ich nur geben. Das Bett war für mich zu hart, aber für die zwei Kinder und für die Frau war es einwandfrei. Wär gerne zu Fuß spazieren möchte oder den Metro einsetzen möchte ist genau perfekt für dieses Hotel links die Fischer Basel und rechts ist das Parlament. Es ist genau in der Mitte und alles ist erreichbar mit der Straßenbahn Bus. Ich war am Weihnachten dort 23.12.2024 bis 25.12.23 wenn man mit dem Auto kommt, kann man vor dem Schiff parken und wenn man das Auto wegbringen muss wie jetzt kriegt man so ein Zettel von der Behörde wegen Hochwasser, dass man sein Fahrzeug lieber woanders packen sollte. Das war der Fall bei mir ansonsten mit dem Auto ein top Platz Rezeption sehr nette Leute die haben mir gesagt 100 m von Schiff entfernt. Kann man das Auto parken ohne Probleme ich war jetzt zwei Tage dort und habe sehr genossen.

Mauvaise expérience

L'hotel se trouve à un endroit pollué par le bruit et les voitures. l'odeur y est nauséabonde (fioul et égout) et tente d'être camouflé par un parfum chimique. Le chambres sont microscopique et la salle de bain ne la rattrape pas. Nous dormons avec nos voisins tant l'isolation est inexistante. La climatisation ne marche pas et il fait vite très chaud. Il faut alors ouvrir la fenêtre qui donne sur le pont et les odeurs de cigarettes rentre dans la chambre. Bref une mauvaise expérience.

Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Sehr laut wegen dem Straßenbahnverkehr auf der nahen Margitbrücke.Wir bekamen auf Anfrage aber ein Zimmer im hinteren Teil des Schiffes,wo es etwas leiser war.Die Lage ist sehr gut. Nahverkehrhaltestellen in unmittelbarer Nähe.Für 1 Woche OK.
