I had a mixed experience at the Danubius Hotel Astoria City Center during my stay. On one hand, the location is excellent, making it easy to explore Budapest and enjoy a fantastic breakfast with lots of options. However, I was disappointed with the cleanliness and upkeep of my room, which left a lot to be desired. The ambiance is charming but could use some updates.

Rooms

6.0

My room was clean and comfortable, but it definitely felt a bit outdated. I noticed some issues with the bathroom not being cleaned properly, which was frustrating. I did enjoy the spacious layout and the high-quality furnishings, but it needs a bit of a refresh to match the charming historical vibe.

Service

I found the service to be inconsistent. While some staff members were friendly and helpful, I encountered a few who seemed overwhelmed, leading to a less than warm experience during check-in. If all staff had the same level of attentiveness, my experience would have been much better.

Breakfast had a good range of options, but I found it a bit expensive. The restaurant served decent meals, though I thought the goulash was too oily and lacking flavor. Live music during dinner was a nice touch.

The hotel had all the basic facilities, and it was generally clean, but I would have appreciated a more modern shower option instead of a bathtub. There was a nice lounge area where I could relax and study maps.
