I had a fantastic five-night stay at Hotel Castle Garden, where the location was perfect for exploring both Buda and Pest. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and I particularly enjoyed the fresh breakfast options each morning. My room was clean and comfortable, but I faced a slight challenge with the steep hill when returning from the Danube. Still, the access to public transport was excellent, making travel around the city easy.

I had a wonderful experience at Hotel Castle Garden, particularly appreciating the quiet location on the Buda side of Budapest with amazing views. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making my stay enjoyable. While my room was clean and comfortable, I did notice some noise from an ice machine at night, so I'd recommend avoiding the rooms on the -1 floor. Overall, a lovely place to stay! 😊
