Travelling with a group at a popular time such as New Year can often make finding hotels difficult. This year I was single so needed a single room, and this was proving to be difficult as many places did not offer single rooms and if they did they were more of the two star variety (and not good 2 stars according to some reviews) so had to bite the bullet and get a room that was only a fraction less than the price of my friends' doubles. Apart from that the only criteria was that the hotel be centrally located and clean.
The hotel Budapest Metropol certainly fitted the above criteria and we booked the rooms through www.superbreak.com as they were offering four nights for the price of three on a bed & breakfast basis ...
Advantages: Good location, near to main attractions, excellent retro decor Disadvantages: Supercilious staff and expensive ale
On my last trip to Budapest I was very lucky to choose a hotel within walking distance of the centre and quite a few of the main attractions. The MercureBudapest was formerly known as The Taverna and is located about two minutes walk away from the bank of the River Danube. We arrived by taxi from the airport which is roughly about 17 kilometres and as I paid the taxi driver I remember thinking that I really liked the fact that the front entrance which is quite grand was on a main road with tourists milling around. I much prefer this than being stuck away down a dark alleyway.
I was impressed with the front entrance of the hotel with its glass windows shining through to the myriad of lights inside and beautifully manicured conifers sitting upright in purple pots with the Mercure sign embellished on the front. The last time I stayed in ...
Advantages: Value for money, great service. Disadvantages: Not perfect location.
(Please note that the name of the hotel is the GOLD HOTEL BUDA and it is in BUDAPEST and not Beijing - I am currently trying to get Ciao to correct the listing :-)
'Twas the weekend before Easter and with the arrival of a good friend from South Africa in London, we departed for the Paris of Eastern Europe, Budapest, on the Friday night. Again, we booked our hotel using www.expedia.co.uk and I selected it based on recommendations from the website and it's location. It seemed to be close to some of the attractions but knowing nothing about Budapest at the time of booking I now think I picked the wrong side of the Danube and rather should have found something in Pest. Trying to save some cash where possible, this was the first time I've ever booked a triple room.
The hotel is located just within walking distance of the centre ...
