I don't rate the Carat quite as highly as some other reviewers. The location is certainly good -- not quite slap in the centre of town (which isn't always a bad thing), but with the river in one direction and Andrássy út in the other within easy walking distance. (The Great Synagogue, a must-see, is also just round the corner... More

A very good hotel. The stuff and the reception are more than helpful and polite. The hotel is located next to the most central square of Budapest where you can use public transportation to get almost everywhere. Totally recomend this hotel for a Budapest city break. More

My wife and I stayed five nights. The service is very accommodating, the room was clean and well equipped (WiFi a bit slow but that probably isn't the hotel's fault), the lobby is a bit cramped, not a good place to wait for a couple of hours after checking out. The breakfast is fine. There are several good Hungarian-food restaurants... More

Boyfriend and i stayed 5 nights here. Rooms are clean and equipped with quite new furniture. Breakfast was great- really all you can imagine. Service is frendly, they even called main train station to help us understand some details about out return train ticket. Location is excellent! Realy, we are not able to think about any bad thing about this... More

This is the perfect base for a trip to Budapest. Easy to walk to all of the main attractions and super close to the main metro stop. The hotel rooms are very clean and comfortable. They have everything that you need for a short stay. The buffet breakfast was adequate, not that great. I arrived very late in the evening... More

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for 8 days and we really liked it: nice and confortable room, clean and up to date bathroom, the best location you can get in budapest, friendly - but no too pushy - staff, and great price. Couldn't ask for more! More

I liked the contemporary style and its perfect location on the Pest side of the river close to Deák Ferenc square. Nice breakfast and helpful staff. More

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... More
