Carat Boutique Hotel - Budapest

Perfect location, friendly multilingual staff, modern rooms and other facilities, very good breakfast, free WiFi in room, absolutely reasonable price

Convenient location, close to many major sights and 2 short blocks to public transit ( tram and train). Good breakfast included with very friendly staff.

All in all, an adequate hotel in a good location for seeing the sights of Budapest and very close to the metro connections. However, the welcome and indeed the service throughout was very cold and clinical and we felt that they we missing just a few touches that would have made it worthy of a revisit/recommend. No tea/Coffee making facilities in the […] rooms and only being able to order hot drinks at certain times and then having to pay hotel drinks prices for them was a major irritation. Also when we asked for a restaurant recommendation the receptionist was unable to give us any 'local' tips at all and we had to resort to using the guide book. Overall nothing wrong but just didn't get that welcoming/intereseted feeling you would expect from a small hotel right in the city centre. Lisateave

Located right at the centre of Budapest, the nearest station is Deák Ferenc tér with all lines going pass. Rooms are new and clean with a nice bathroom and shower, despite it may be slightly smaller than a typical 4 star hotel room, but it is comfortable and with a balcony. Breakfast buffet was included and the quality is good with a wide range of choices. […] As a student traveller, a strongly recommend this hotel for all kinds of travellers. Lisateave

Good location Fitness, Sauna & Jacuzzi look like they haven't been used in a long time, 1 of the 3 machines out of service If you are interested in a nice, but simple hotel in great location, I'd advise you to go to Carat Hotel, although it is by no means a 4 star hotel.

Our three day stay in the Carat Boutique hotel was comfortable and convenient. Located about 300 meteres from Deak Ter and the central hub for transportation meant we could get in and out and around the city with ease. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast was great! The staff were courteous and helpful. And there are some very good restaurants […] in the neighborhood. I plan on staying here on my next trip. Lisateave

Myself and the Gamster spent 5 days in Budapest over New year. The hotel is nice and clean with good size bedroom and bathrooms. As often the case it was 2 single beds pushed together not a double but this happens and is not the end of the world. Nice bathroom with a good shower, the Gamster did say the hair dryer wasn't the best but did the job. I […] did feel the room would of benefitted from a kettle perhaps.Some reviewers have mentioned outside noise - our room face inwards over a courtyard and was quiet enough but I dont know about the ouward facing rooms at the front so I can't comment. the staff seemed helpful and nice, a lady even walked down the road to the high street so we could get the taxi to the airport they booked for us (the road where the hotel was busy with some procession) so we got the right one - a nice touch Breakfast was nice, with a fair bit of choice. For the money its a good standard hotel and can't really be faulted in this respect (for the money I would say its above average) The hotel is also in a great location - we spent 5 days and didtn't use any public transport just walked everywhere taking the sights of Budapest. It is what it is - a good standard hotel - if you want "Ritz" stlye glamour then pay for it elsewhere, but if you want a nice hotel to rest your head in a top location the the Carat is great and i'd stay there again. I would certainly advise people to stay at the Carat Hotel - above average and superb location Lisateave

When booking my hotel I tried to do my homework and choose a hotel that is close to everything. I really hit the jackpot with this hotel as You can see Deak station from outside the hotel, St Stephen's basilica is just round the corner, and the bars and cafes are close too. The staff at the hotel were very helpful. The rooms pristine. My first room […] was on the small side, but I asked to change to a room with a bath- not a problem a.d this room was much larger. The only 2 negatives are that the rooms towards the street side suffer from street noise, and the fitness room was pretty poor. The hotel bar could have stayed open longer but all in all an excellent choice. I would definitely stay here again. Lisateave

All of our expectations were met at the Carat Boutique Hotel. From the excellent location near the intersection of three metro lines and one tram line to the fine breakfast and comfortable room, we could not have been more pleased. Budapest is a wonderful city and the location in Pest made getting around a breeze. We used the 72 hour pass extensively […] and the trams, metro, and buses made moving around the city simple and efficient. Lisateave

Really nice hotel in the city center. Near to almost all tourist attractions, clean and modern room, good breakfast and friendly service. We could walk to almost everything and if not, the metro is 50 meters away. Quite cheap for being located in the city center and offering not only nice rooms but also spa. Near the hotel we found many restaurants […] and bars as well. Lisateave

This hotel was a great value and a great location! The breakfast buffet that was included was GREAT! Can't wait to go back!

GREAT BREAKFAST VERY HELPFUL AND FRIENDLY STAFF WITH A SMILE

Charming hotel in the centre of Budapest. Close to public transport and Hop-on-hop-off Bus. Good breakfast included in room price. Would definitely return!

I've been once before to this hotel in September 2010 for aweek.The aircon didn't work last time(it still doesn't work).The original staff members are very friendly and helpful in answering questions.Breakfast is ok.The hotel is close to some good restaurants and bars.Its about 10 mins from the river and 20 from Hero's square.Its a good location for […] all the sights.

You usually read presentations where hotels are depicted much better than actually are. This time I had the nice surprise of finding a place which was even better than my expectations: modern and clean, a few steps from the underground and the city center, helpful personnel at the reception, good breakfast. Should I find a negative, I can can only say […] that the curtains are not blacking out completely the room if you are used to sleep in a dark room. Lisateave

This hotel is literally around the corner from the WIzzair bus which drops you in the city center from the airport. We had a great stay and cannot fault this hotel. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a very clean, comfortable, hotel for a fantastic price.

We were more than happy with the Carat Boutique Hotel. Its a nice, well-designed hotel, clean and with a fairly good breakfast. The location was perfect, near lots of nice bars and restaurants and only a short walk to the Danube and the more touristy part of town.

Although the location was excellent for us, the room on the first floor overlooking a very busy, trafficked street allowing us to breath in petrol fumes when the window was open. It was full on winter, but rooms always overheated in Budapest, must open windows for a breath of fresh air - only to suck in fumes. When I mention this to the manager - he […] said "Well, of course this is a city centre with a lot of traffic, what do you expect?" Oh I don't know, how about expecting to breathe? We asked for a late check out and again the same manager was quick to tell us how much it would cost. All the rest of the staff were helpful, charming, gracious. The manager seemed more interested in the extra money and not at all bothered by traffic fumes. Although the hotel was nearly empty, and it would have been no bother to move our room to an inside courtyard window. I think attitude speaks volumes. I will say the breakfast was one of the best of these type hotel in the area. It had lots of fresh fruit, yoghurts, cereals, little pastries, hot eggs, bacon and some other hot things that change daily. There were cheeses, cold cuts, veges etc. It had a range of drinks hot and cold, including melted chocolate for hot chocolate drinks. And the staff in the restaurant were superb (we owned restaurants and know these things). They were efficient, helpful, cheerful, and a very good presence in the restaurant. The breakfast really was a well done affaire. Lisateave

We spent three nights in this hotel.This hotel is very centrally located in Pest! A short taxi ride to Buda and the palace. We had an inside room with absolutely no noise. The street in front is also very quiet. The metro only one and a half blocks away.Two minutes away." Fifth Avenue" Shopping on Androssy St is five minute walk. Loads of excellent […] resturants next to the hotel. The internet connection and breakfast were top notch! The staff were professional and very helpful. Highly recommend this hotel to tourists and business people . Beaware that smoking is the norm in Budapest! You can sit in non-smoking areas in restaurants but it is little difference. The Palace is a must see as well as one of the 'bath' houses. Another must see is the book store/wine room at the Alexadra Book store top floor at 39 Androssy. Another must see for dinner the Kor resturant on Sas street just south of the US Embassey.Make a reservation.Service and food were the best at a very reasonable price. Lastly, absolutely take the elevator/lift to the top of St. Stephens Basilica . Fantastic view of Budapest! Lisateave

We are very satisfied with out stay at Carat hotel. The location is very good, right by Dieak Ter, where 3 metro line meet. Many sites in Pest are within a walking distance. The room has a nice design with mild color, the size is big compared with our room in Roma. The bed is comfortable and there's no unbearable noise from outside. We had a safe box […] in the room too. The breakfast is suffient with a good variation.There are only few small negative things (which didn't influence our pleasant stay much): The curtain is a little bit thin for the morning.The shower is fixed too slow, so we had to hold the shower head all the time.

Nur ca. 80 m von der Metrostation Deak Ference entfernt. Großteil der Sehenswürdigkeiten von dort aus zu Fuß erreichbar. Ansonsten optimale Anbindung an Metro, Straßenbahn und Bus. Das Hotel selber kann ich jederzeit weiter empfehlen. Preis- und Leistungsverhältnis passen.

Plus för : Bästa läge i trevliga kvarter, nära till allt o standardmässigt helt ok rum i förhållande till pris. Trevlig o hjälpsam personal. Minus för: Sängarna kunde absolut varit bättre, frukosten stänger kl 10, vilket gjorde att den hoppades över till förmån för sömn.

Rezeption ist durchgehend besetzt, man kann also auch spaet noch aus den Restaurants & Bars zurueckkehren ohne den Zimmerscchluessel mitzunehmen, auch ist ein Late Check Out moeglich bis 13Uhr anschliessend kann man sein Gepaeck in einem abgeschlossenen Raum deponieren welcher nur von der Rezeption geoeffnet wird,die Lage des Hotels ist perfekt man […] kann von dort mit dem Nahverkehr alles ereichen was etwas mehr auserhalb liegt, lange rede kurzer sinn: ich komme gern wieder in dieses Hotel!

Erinomainen sijainti aivan Deak Ter -metroaseman kupeessa. Lyhyt kävelymatka Vaci Utcalle ja muihin Pestin puolen nähtävyyksiin. Hyvä aamiainen. Ikkunoiden äänieristys oli olematon: 1 . kerroksen huoneeseen kantautui kadulta niin autojen äänet, puhe kuin korkokenkien kopinakin. Erityisesti viikonloppuöinä meteliä koko yön, arkisin pääasiassa aamuliikennettä […] ja roskisten tyhjennystä. Lisateave

Vi blev p g a sjukdom tvugna att skjuta upp vår resa till Budapest. Vi bokade via Hotels.com och enligt villkoren hade vi egentligen ingen rätt att få ändra på vår bokning men vi ringde Hotels.com för att höra om de kunde hjälpa oss. De sa att de kunde ringa och höra med hotellet. Vi fick snabb återkoppling att Hotellet utan problem gått med på datumändringen. När […] vi väl kom fram till hotellet var all personal väldigt serviceinriktade och vänliga. De pratade dessutom god engelska. Rummet var rent och fint. Vi blev väldigt positivt överraskade över läget. Verkligen centralt. Nära både metro och stora shoppingstråket Vatci Útka. Frukosten var helt okej men inget wow. Kan verkligen tänka mig att bo på Carat Boutiqe Hotel igen! Lisateave

Bra beläget hotel, riklig välsmakande frukostbuffe, serviceminded personal. Prisvärt - kan verkligen rekommenderas

Mycket nice hotell!

Vi fikk rom mot gaten de to første nettene. Det var ganske mye støy fra gaten, men det gikk relativt greit å få byttet rom så vi fikk vindu inn mot bakgården istedenfor. Her var det stille og fredelig så det gikk an å ha vinduet åpent om natten. Grei frokost, topp beliggenhet!

Hotelet ligger mitt Budapest och det är ungerfär ilka långt till alla dom "stora" turist siterna, aldrig längre än 5km vilket gör att om man har ett par bra skor så behöver man inte köpa kollektiv biljetter. (tips är dock att ta med ett par ombytes skor också) Furkosten var superb, och det var max 5 min gångavstånd till massor av bra resturanger, En […] resturang jag kan rekomendera är Karma. Riktigt bra mat till bra priser. Lisateave

Förutom några småsaker som att det var väldigt varmt på rummet första kvällen och lite missförstånd i kommunikationen med personalen så var hela vistelsen väldigt bra. Trevlig personal, fräsch frukost och riktigt bra läge.

Er godt fornøyd med hotellet. Veldig god sentral beliggenhet, ca. 200 m fra hovedmetrostasjonen. Hyggelig personale og en fin frokostbuffèt med godt utvalg av både brødmat og pålegg m.m. Det eneste jeg har å komme med av minus er mangel på mulighet for å kunne koke seg en kopp kaffe/te på rommet og jeg er litt misfornøyd med dusjen da høyden ikke kunne […] justeres. Lisateave

Fantastiskt bra beläget hotell med väldigt trevlig personal! Något torftig frukostbuffe men då den ingår i priset finns det egentligen inget att klaga på.. Jag kan varmt rekommendera detta hotell!

Perfekt utgångsläge för att ta sig runt i Budapest. Nära till allt, men ligger ändå på en relativt lugn gata. Hotellet är rent och välstädat, men inredningen känns något sliten och daterad för ett 4-stjärnigt. Hjälpsam personal, stor frukostbuffé, men spa och fitnessrummet var en besvikelse.

Sijainti oli yllättävän hyvä; kivenheitto kaikkien metrolinjojen risteämispaikasta. Hotellilta on helppo liikkua myös kävellen. Palvelu oli hyvää ja ystävällistä sekä aamiainen oli riittävä ja maistuva. Hotelli on hiljainen, joten pienen vauvan kanssa oli helppo nukkua yöt.

Perfekt läge - nära till allt! Kort gångavstånd till shopping. Trevligt hotell. Frukostbuffén var bra, mycket att välja på och trevlig personal. Rent och fräscht i rummet. Lite lyhört ut mot gatan dock. Jacuzzi och träningsmaskiner fanns det också, bara att boka i receptionen. Prisvärt hotell!

Vi är mer än nöjda med Hotellet... Väldigt centralt men ändå lugnt och tyst läge. Personalen var trevlig och väldigt hjälpsam. Mysigt relaxrum med bastu och jaccuzi som man kunde boka utan kostnad. Ett litet minus att sängarna var något hårda. Rekomenderar ändå varmt detta hotell.

Hotelli sijaitsee erinomaisella paikalla ihan Budapestin ytimessä, kuitenkin rauhallisen kadun varressa. Pari askelta hotellin ovelta metrolle ja ratikalle, joilla pääsee kulkemaan ympäri kaupunkia. Hotels.comin kautta yöpymisen varaaminen sujui täysin ongelmitta. Hotellin palvelut hintaan nähden olivat erinomaiset.

Alt var flott for oss på dette hotellet - Beliggenhet, størrelsen på rommet og badet, veldig bra frokost og vennlig personale. Eneste minus var trimrommet, det var en skuffelse.

Good location. The fitness room is very basic and consist only of a bike and a threadmill. Breakfeast is a bit under a standard buffet. Good cleaning and nice rooms. Very good and stable WIFI. Nice spa

Hotellet ligger oerhört centralt, tar max 2 minuter att ta sig ner till tunnelbanan och stationen deak ferenc ter som är stora samlingplatsen, lika nära är det till spårvagnshållplatsen där flera linjer stannar. Vi fick superfina rum, välstädade varje dag och väl ljudisolerade - vi stördes inte av vare sig trafik eller andra hotellgäster. Sängarna […] var dock väldigt hårda. Frukosten var helt okej, vi kom en kvart innan den stängde första dagen och då fanns där inget bröd så vi fick be personalen att fylla på. I övrigt fanns det juice, kaffe, te, bröd (olika sorter om man kom tidigt, en sort om man kom sent), yoghurt, flingor, müsli, äggröra och någon form av stekt korv tror jag också. Bra service från hotellet, vänlig och hjälpsam personal. Vi var överlag väldigt nöjda med hotellet. Att tänka på, när vi skulle checka ut fick vi betala en så kallad "turistavgift", något som ingen av oss upplevt tidigare men jag har nu i efterhand hört att man kan få betala den i ex Italien också. Dock var vi i Budapest för ett år sen också, på ett annat hotell och då betalade vi ingen sådan avgift... Den var en euro/natt och per person. Lisateave

Mycket centralt placerat med trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Att en stor och god frukostbuffé ingår, försämrar ju inte alls intrycket.
