Absolutely aesthetically pleasing, with the best service in all of Budapest. Reception was extremely helpful, social and had an extremely high level of augmented English comprehension. I had several guests in absolute awe, many of whom were Hungarian themselves, utterly surprised by the quality of the hotel. Best breakfast service I ever had! Located close to the House of Terror museum as well. The general area of Oktogon has some issues that are present in all of Budapest and major cities, but even late at night, I felt safe, secure and the hotel was constantly a topic of conversation. As a veteraned solo traveler of Europe, this place is ideal if you are interested in being close to Budapest's best landmarks. Very multi cultural as well. Many English speakers, Russian speakers, German speakers, etc. My bags were delayed and the hotel reception went through a great effort to help get my bags delivered from the airport when they did arrive. Never had a hotel go through so much effort on my behalf anywhere. My room had a complimentary wine which was fantastic and every room seemingly has a very modern and large smart TV. The rooms are kind of small, but the amenities are top notch and frankly, the co-working spaces, the lounge and everywhere else is the best Budapest can offer. I agonized over which hotel to pick for this visit, but this will be my only choice for now on. Its convenient location made it easy for my friends to visit and the area is extremely walkable, close to an absolutely fantastic McDonalds too and lots of fancier places. Had some amazing steaks at a place across the street, was at an Irish pub until 4 am another night and overall, this is the ideal place for a well-off solo traveler, both young couples and retired ones, and for singles--this is a fantastic place to bring dates! Also, top tier and secure! You need a card to use the elevator and to access the lounge at night. So the chances of anything nefarious happening are very low. All of the staff are highly professional, smartly dressed, great conversationalists, have great integrity and are extremely service minded. Many of them had excellent grooming standards and presented well in their uniforms. Haggenmacher has no peers or equals. These are the only guys in Budapest to do it right and better than any other service! Not to mention, they have fixed rate deals with taxis to and from the airport, really saving you time and money.

The hotel is nice, the decor of the rooms is modern, had booked rooms with twin beds the beds were smaller singles than the standard size you would expect. The rooms are tidy, clean and felt spacious enough. The reception was a bit slow with requests and the breakfast was just passable, if you are a vegetarian there is hardly anything, so better to not have this options when booking.
