Al Habtoor Palace Budapest Hotel in Budapest

We had a lovely stay at Habtoor Palace Budapest- this is our second time in less than a year. The location is excellent, very central and easy to get around the city. The hotel itself is elegant and beautiful, with a real palace feel but still very comfortable. The gym is beautiful well equipped, the pool, sauna and jacuzzi all added value to our stay especially when weather is cold.

The staff were amazing – friendly, helpful, and always welcoming. You really feel taken care of from the moment you arrive.

The in-room amenities were a big wow – Diptyque products! I even asked reception if it was possible to take them home, and to my surprise, the General Manager, Mr. Rahim Abu Omar, was kind enough to leave them as a gift in our room. Such a thoughtful and generous gesture.

Mr. Rahim was incredibly welcoming, and very down to earth. It truly made our stay extra special. Highly recommend this hotel if you’re visiting Budapest.

Perfect place to stay right in the heart of the city in Budapest. The room was excellent bed was super comfy. We were here for a few days before we boarded our Viking Embla River cruise ship. The Christmas markets surrounded the entire area, we were directly in front of St Stephen’s Basilica picture perfect. This was a birthday/Christmas trip the hotel left the most amazing dessert and champagne in our room with a birthday card they had all hand signed. The front desk staff were amazing and so helpful. We had the grand brunch on Sunday before we departed and it was worth every penny. The restaurant manager was amazing as well and had a wonderful conversation with us. Our stay was 10/10 would definitely stay here again. I also think it helped that we tried to greet them in their language and it was well received.

Wow I’m honestly super impressed with Al habtoor group, Service here was absolutely fantastic and they made my stay feel extremely welcoming. Every staff member was wonderful since walking in and they made sure that my stay was good, the hotel itself is beautiful, rooms are spacious, and breakfast was amazing. One of my favorite properties in Europe and that says a lot. After living in the UAE for 4 years it really brings back memories of the middle eastern hospitality with the small things like the Arabic coffee in the lobby and dates, overall a wonderful stay

Amazing Hotel and amazing Staff to be honest. They are so kind and helpful.. they do their best. Miss Jazmin thank you a lot for your help and support and did her best to make our stay as comfortable as it can be doing everything and following even up next day really means a lot . Highly recommend thanks for ur Emirate touch . Dont forget to ask for the Balaleet when u having breakfast plzzz. The rooms are so clean and thanks to the Managment for the prayer room really means a lot. The Arabic coffee and the welcome dates. Mr Abu Omar ( the Hotel manager we can see your influence of the Arabic hospitality ) Thank you .

A very nice hotel in the centre of Budapest.

Situated in the old Ritz Carlton, this hotel has been very nicely modernised!

Rooms feel big thanks to the very high ceilings and modern decor! Bathrooms are spacious and all dine to a good modern standard.

Service is top notch. A welcome drink at check in, staff always saying hi, and there also to ensure you are well catered for.

Breakfast is a mix between cooked and continental. All food was fine, nothing overly stand out.

I had a great business trip to Budapest in December. The staff (particularly a gentleman named Akos) was amazing and super attentive towards my needs. The room service and location were great as well. The bar was fantastic and the bartender Oliver, was so gentlemanly and kind. I loved it so much. Only recommendation is that the hot tub could be a bit more hot!

The Ritz Carlton Budapest is truly one of the most exquisite hotels I have ever stayed at. Location was amazing, rooms were spectacular and the service was 10/10.

I recommend staying on the club floor. The lounge has the best service I have maybe ever experienced. The staff is kind and makes you feel right at home. They all had our orders memorized by day two. Special recognition goes to Vanessza, was amazing! She gave us amazing recommendations for dinner and things to do around the city.

We spent two days in Budapest en route to Vienna and Prague on a Christmas Market adventure, so we chose the Ritz Carlton Budapest for its location. Because of our limited time in the city, the hotel's location was excellent and we were able to walk to everything we wanted to see. If something was a bit further, we had the option to take the metro or taxi/uber - though we chose to walk.

The hotel itself was gorgeous and the staff was very welcoming and professional. There was one disappointing encounter with a staff member, but it was unique to her and I would not hold it against the hotel. The breakfast and in-room dining was solid, though we tried to eat most of our meals in town so had limited experience.

I would certainly come back and probably not choose a different hotel in Budapest after experiencing their service. Their service was on par or above other Ritz-Carlton locations I have experienced.

Happy travels!

That was a wonderful experience in charming Budapest. Not only is the location very central and close to river Danube but also the offered amenities and ambience is indeed worth 5 stars. But the real difference was being made by the very friendly and service oriented staff. Special thanks to the service manager Daniel who cared for us in an excellent and supportive way throughout our stay. Toni as member of the service staff in the restaurant did make our breakfast experience a happy start into the day. We will definitely come back!

Our stay at the Ritz Carlton was wonderful overall. We were able to check in early, which was convenient after a really long flight, though we did receive a street view instead of the city view we’d hoped for. The check-in process was smooth, and most of the staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. However, one staff member was a bit aggressive in questioning if we were guests, which was unexpected. Despite this, housekeeping was fantastic, and breakfast each morning was a highlight with a great selection of high-quality options. Rooms are a bit outdated and needs an overhaul. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience!
