Top French Institute Hotel Reviews

Mamaison VIBE Hotel Downtown Budapest

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were clean and staff were very friendly and helpful. It is also in a good location and you don't have to go out to dine if you don't want to."

Park Plaza Budapest

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was great! The young man that checked us in was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable about what to do why in Budapest."

Ikonik Parlament

10/10 Excellent

"Really good hotel..staff great and helpful..easy to get to everything..would recommend"

Moxy Budapest Downtown

8/10 Good

"The location of the hotel is absoutley perfect for exploring the city and for going to many bars around the 'ruinbar' area. The rooms are spacious, modern and ours was spotless. The staff on the front desk were very friendly and allowed us to check in early at no extra cost. The only issue I have with this hotel is funnily enough the doors on the rooms.... they need to be slammed to be closed and they do my make a loud bang. The cleaners especially when going in and out of rooms. I would still recommend this hotel if you have busy days and early mornings planned."

Prestige Hotel Budapest

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was clean and luxurious close to everything and close to transportation, about 50mins away from the airport with bus but very easy to reach The only thing i ddnt like is there wasnt enough variety with breakfast but other than that it was perfect"

Aurea Ana Palace by Eurostars Hotel Company

10/10 Excellent

"Staying at the Áurea Ana Palace Hotel feels like stepping into another era — a time of imperial grandeur, timeless elegance, and exquisite European craftsmanship. More than just a five-star hotel, it is a beautiful reminder of Budapest’s Austro-Hungarian heritage, where historic architecture and refined interiors blend effortlessly with modern comfort. Just a short distance from the majestic Danube, the hotel offers more than a luxurious stay — it offers a connection to the history, culture, and romance of this extraordinary city."

Danubius Hotel District V

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was close to everything, breakfast was excellent, and coffee was available for 24 hours in the lobby."

NEXTO DORMERO Hotel Budapest

8/10 Good

"Bel emplacement avec un système de transport efficace à proximité. Les chambres sont modernes et lumineuses. Personnel agréable et courtois prêt à aider. On a beaucoup apprécié de pouvoir laisser nos valises après le check-out. Le seul bémol a été que le wifi n’a pas fonctionné lors de notre séjour, ce qu’on a trouvé un peu plate. Et ce sans espoir de que cela soit arrangé"

Hilton Budapest

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was beautiful and the location was awesome! So glad that we chose it!"
