Hostels in Hungary

That was great for travelers. The place was great and their service like breakfast was amazing.

The free breakfast was very generous, and the hotel is right in the city center. The environment was decent too.

The experience in the hostel was amazing, the place is in a very good location of the city, nearby to the tram and the metro. The accommodation was very good, and the service very nice. The staffs were very kindly, want to thanks Julia, Joaquim, Arthur, Andrés, Caio, Murilo and Norbi that helped enjoying the stay.

Staff are very friendly and helpful. Check-in was fast. Rooms are very clean but beds are not that big if you're a tall person. Location is superb and you can directly find anything you need immediately. They have group Whatsapp for activities but I didn't try it. Breakfast is fine and tasty.

It  was  great   Clean  frindly  real  hostel  atmosphere  Good  help  for  excursion prima  prima

My third time. I love the location the team and the breakfast. It is low budget to enjoy small luxury and meet good people.

Ok location very all the basic thing that you need. Spacious twin room. Hostel vibe. Sonething maybe old but spacious still consider comfort stay.

MP Hostel Budapest was absolutely the most pleasant surprise of my Europe trip! The hostel boasts a prime downtown location, just a 6-minute walk from Blaha Lujza tér metro station. It's surrounded by trendy restaurants, ruin bars, and attractions, making both transportation and nightlife incredibly convenient. While it's a hostel, the rooms are clean and tidy, each with its own private bathroom. The...

Limited facility. Staff are very helpful. The location is not bad.

I stayed at Marco Polo Hostel for one week after reading many positive reviews. Here’s my honest take: 📍 Location (10/10): The location is perfect—right in the city center. It’s just a 5–8 minute walk from both Metro 2 (where the hostel is) and Metro 3 / Deak Ferenc Ter (for the 100E airport bus). Couldn’t ask for better. 👋 First Impression & Check-in: I arrived early at 9 AM on Christmas Day (Dec...

Loved the stay- the location was easy to find with clear instructions - Staff was nice- its only minutes away from main train stations and to all the attractions as well!!!

Rooms were great and location is fantastic. Unfortunately I had to cut my trip short due to a family emergency. I had hoped to be reimbursed for the 6 nights I had already paid for, but no luck. I feel cheated because of that. I'm sure my bed was rebooked as it's a popular hostel. I would have been satisfied with even half of what I'd paid. It will make me rethink of staying here again.

Not a good place to stay if you're a solo traveler. Lots of groups and pretty noisy area. But the staff and some parts are amazing as a it is a party hostel.

Great place friendly staff and very helpful nearby town and in the middle of everything

Amazing rooftop! Too bad there's no coffee machine.

It was very nice and clean good service customer are friendly as well thank you

Very good, my roommates were all friendly.

Amazing stay for solo traveller. Available at pre location. Everything is within walking distance or accessible via public transport nearby.

6-person female dorm is a spacious room with a huge bathroom. Mine was on the 3rd floor facing a side alley and at night it was quiet. Can be a bit messy depending on roommates, but nice after cleaning. Every bed has blackout curtains, a power outlet, a lamp, a mini air conditioner and a code-opening safe (with two additional power outlets inside). Everyone also has a personal locker that opens with...

Very convenient location. Near to the public transport and walkable distance to certain attractions. Room is clean and comfortable.

The hostel was really good. We stayed in a private room so my experience is also due to the fact that I didn’t had to share my space with anyone. The staff were super friendly (which these days is rare in a hostel). The beds are really clean and they really had a proper system to avoid bed bugs and stuff that you usually question from a hostel. The one remark was that there is no space to put our...

It’s a good place to stay. Everything was perfect.

The reception was so nice and the room was very clean.

The four-person room was very spacious and offered good privacy. The bathroom was also large, and the staff kept the place clean and well-maintained.

Everything depends on your expectations—if you have a larger budget, I wouldn't recommend it. The rooms were too crowded, the doors couldn't be locked, and some people came back late at night and seemed to know the building manager, so they turned on their lights and introduced themselves. But if you're like me and have no other choice, it's still a place to stay. The staff are friendly (although check...

They are professional and cleanly, as well as having a kitchen and laundry service which is convenient.

Agreed on previous reviews, the place has a feeling not a hostel for international travellers but for local long stayers, working class people. Stay here on your own risk, it's often fully booked due to an extremely low price but as a downside you'll get a bunch of loud ladies cooking their evening meals and socialising well into the night. A fully equipped kitchen is one a few bright spots though...

A hotel in the center of Budapest is a reliable choice when you are looking for a top starting point to discover this wonderful city. The hotel has beautiful and modern rooms. The staff is very friendly, helpful and happy to help with advice that makes it easier to discover the city and stay in it. I absolutely recommend!

The location is amazing, the staff is also nice, and the people are cool; however, I had the feeling that the place is not clean enough. all the shared areas, toilets, and kitchen were okay, but I think it could have been more hygienic.

I stayed here for a few nights in January and I enjoyed it. It was cheap, and they let me pay in cash with euros (I think 57 euros for 4 nights & a lock for my locker). The location makes everything quite walkable. I did not use the common area; my photos show the building from the outside.

Everything is fine, everyone is very enthusiastic and the location is convenient.

It was difficult to find the hostel at first. I cam late and couldn't come in through the door by the street at first. Someone living there opened it, as he wanted to go inside. After that, the service was nice. The curtains of the bed are not covering enough, so I needed my own sleep mask to get it dark. Also the location is near to a loud street. It is nice for going to bars at night but not so sleeping

Nice room with very clean toilet and with the best location at very reasonable price

So let's stay at a great place. It was clean and the best value. Just stay for a long time if you need to. It's the best to work with, and there's good food around the area, so eat well.

This was my first time staying in a hostel so I was a bit apprehensive. However, after staying here all my previous worries were completely wiped away. The staff are so much fun and really helpful. The hostel itself has great social areas and is really clean. They have drinking games, site seeing tours, free tea and coffee and a great appliances. I would 100% recommend staying here if you’re young...

A really good hostel. Its clean, the vibe was good. There are volunteers that work there and they are all such amazing people. Erto and Lea were really nice, Lea guided us like a pro to all the parties and Erto gave us a nice tour of the city. 5/5 recommend My first solo trip was a success thanks to you guys.

Best experience at a hostel. If you are interested in budapest party life, this is where you will get the best experience when it comes to tips, companions, party driven travelers, short distances, cleanliness, room quality and staff. Mauro and Rodriguez were by far the most welcoming staff during my stay. I never hesitated to start a conversation with them or ask them for help. Thank you for your...

Best hostel I’ve stayed at. Very social, friendly staff that make it easy to meet everyone else. They organize daily tours during the day and drinking games and pub crawls at night so there is always something to do. I love onefam!

I honestly could not recommend this hostel more. Highlights: The insane energy brought by the one and only Aussie powerhouse due Angus and Ella. The homey vibes from Leah and Jenna that can somehow cure any hangover. The amazing photos taken by the local Romanian vampire Lola. The feel good vibes from the bar staff that will never let your glasses run empty. This hostel offers great drinking games...

If you’re traveling to Budapest and looking for a hostel to stay in, this is the place to be! Andy, Rob, and the the rest of the staff do an amazing job of making it and inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone. Whether you’re traveling with friends or traveling alone, you’ll leave here with more friends than you came with. Every single night was a memorable night. By the end of my trip I didn...

The location of Pal Mini Hostel is great and very convenient. However, the room was not soundproof at all, so it was quite noisy. The showerhead in our bathroom was also broken, which was disappointing. The price felt a bit expensive for what we got, but it might be because we stayed during New Year’s.

I loved it there. The hostel was very quiet and peaceful. I came alone and rented a private room with shared bath. The hostel does not have staff there usually, but is very accommodating over text. I got in super later due to missing my bus, and then the next bus was stuck at the border for 5 hours. They sent me a whatsapp text with videos on how to get in and very good instructions. Another staff...

I stayed with two friends, and when we first arrived, there was no one at the reception. We received instructions over the phone from the owner for the check-in process. Overall, the accommodation was good; the room and bathrooms were clean, and the beds were comfortable. Since we went during the off-season, only two rooms were occupied, so we didn’t experience any noise issues. We were satisfied with...

Very nice hostel. Everything is clean, very few carpets, which means few parasites. All the laundry smells like fresh wash. A complete wet cleaning was done before us. High ceilings. Homely environment, decent shower, clean toilet, kitchen, everything you need. Great location with a beautiful view. I would be happy to come back here again.

Absolutely excellent little hostel situated in the heart of Budapest city centre. Easy walking distance to the Ruin Bars which are an absolute must when you visit the city and near to the Danube for cultural visit, especially the “Shoes”, very moving. Very reasonably priced and the reception man called Matias could not do enough for us. Showers were hot, towels and sheets provided and clean. A basic...

the place is good, but reception is not 24 hours(

The location is a bit hard to find. The hostel is on the first floor of an old building and looks old. I only stayed there for one night and it was okay.

fair for its price and i only needed a place to stay during daytime. probably won't choose this hostel to stay overnight. staff are nice.

Cons: Not so great initially - strong smell on the room, noise on the street but sorted out quickly. Thanks to prompt action by the management. In most of my stay, floor on the shared bathroom is always wet and no proper ventilation. Lockers are outside the bedrooms so it’s worth having a spare bag for some essential items that you need to keep next to you. Duvet slightly short for tall person. My...

Fantastic staff and good facilities. Highly recommend. Good location too.

Quite good but it is a bit old and crowded, but very close to the main location

The receptionist's attitude was particularly bad. The beds in the room were very simple. The upper and lower bunks interfered with each other when they moved. I had to make do with it and didn't want to stay any longer! The bathroom is not clean either

Listen to me carefully, you petits sauvages (complaining in the comments. I have stayed in palaces from Versailles to Dubai, and yet, my heart belongs to Lavender Circus. Why? Because of Siobhan. That woman is a chef-d'œuvre! A masterpiece! She handled my vintage Hermès luggage as if it were made of holy relics. She has the poise of a ballerina and the efficiency of a Swiss watch. If you found her...

We stayed a few nights during January 2026. This is such a cute place! We loved the spacious living area. It was nice to have a kitchen and a refrigerator too. Very safe place to stay. There are several places to eat and nice grocery stores near by.

The staff is great! We appreciated that there were a lot of kitchen inventory, it was really helpful. The room was clean and neat

The hotel has a very interesting and unusual interior design, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. However, there are several significant downsides. First, be prepared that there is no elevator, and you have to walk up to the 4th floor. The rooms are in desperate need of maintenance. The layout is not well thought out: there is nowhere to hang or store clothes, and there are no shelves in the...

Location was very central and convenient. The room wasn't as seen in the pictures but worked out. Staff was accommodating.

The building is old but we'll kept, there are plenty of stairs and the hostel is on the top floor, I love the wallpaper designs. Hot water goes out sometimes so shower quickly! The location is very central if you enjoy walking to see the city. I've added videos of our room and views from the window. My dog, Hokis, and I are enjoying our stay.

Spacious twin room and access to a well-stocked kitchen. The apartment was very convenient, and it was easy to access public transport and see the sights. It was also very quiet at night, so we slept well. Judit was a great host. A great place to stay in Budapest, I would heartily recommend it.

Absolutely Wonderful Stay! We had a fantastic experience staying here! The location is perfect—right in the city centre and easily accessible, which made getting around so convenient. Judith, the owner, is such a lovely and welcoming host. She was incredibly kind, helpful, and full of useful information about the area, she even have us a map marking all the sightseeing places we wanted to see. You...

Everything was great here. Judit was a very hospitable host and the apartment was nicely prepared. The bed is comfortable and there is also a sofa, desk and full kitchen - all you need for a short stay. Everything was clean and the location was fantastic - next to the Astoria M2 metro station and close to Ferenciek Tér M3. Despite the city centre location the apartment was quiet and you can’t hear...

Amazing location. Affordable Clean, safe. It got hot and all there was was a fan, no AC but in colder times this would be perfect.

Excellent location and just a few steps away from Astoria subway station (the bus to and from the aiport passes right by it). Judi is an outstanding manager and she will give you great tips on places to see and things to do in this great city.

I could stay here so comfortable.The hotel owner and her partner were very very helpful and kindness. They taught me Budapest sightseeing even though I send rude emails and I couldn’t speak English very well. It’s my first time to stay the hotel which like airb. The wall of these rooms was thin.I could hear noises from next room and also I made noises too. That is the only point of concern.

Very friendly service, especially the gentleman at reception. Thank you very much for your help and understanding. Good location, close to everything. One small comment – no five stars for cleanliness. Overall okay, but take a look under the bed next time :) I totally recommend it.

The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. Staff was helpful, respectful and welcoming. The temperature of the room was very nice too.

Rooms are very clean The receptionist is very nice The rooms has has all you want fridge kettle iron hot water soaps shampoo and all It is Very Near the stations and near many attractions Almost city center

We had a private room with a shared bath. Other then the very loud sirens everything about the place was as expected. Receptionists were friendly and helpful. The kitchen had what we needed. The room was clean and bed comfortable.

Amazing location right next to the main areas of Budapest. 15 minutes walk from anywhere central you might want to be. This place is also right next to a metro station and 10 mins walk from the bus route from the airport. From the outside it's nothing special looking, but the rooms are clean and practical. I stayed in both a room with a shared bathroom and a room with my own bathroom and they were...

Very good hostel, especially for this price. Essentially it has all what you need and the location is very close to all sightseeings

Room was spotless, staff was courteous . . . great experience. Room was very small (I had to put the luggage on the bed to close the door), but it was fine for sleeping. . . and there was a kitchen down the hall. Couldn't ask for a better location. Really great!

Not cleaned well, we saw hairs on the linens from the previous people. It looked washed, but not good enough. Otherwise, location and self check in is great.

the location is excellent. walking distance to the attractions.

Very good. I like this hostel.

The location is very good, different from the youth hostel I imagined, very quiet and clean. Everyone is of high quality

It was good. Showers and toilets are too small in my opinion. Not too clean showers. Besides this there is a relaxed zone, kitchen, I really like decision about long sofa in the room, it’s really comfortable. Overall I like everything, thank you:) Location is great!

Very kind staff, beautiful view and terrasse right outside the room overlooking the Danube. As regards the bed, the mattress was unfortunately a bit too soft, and I would have appreciated it if the bed was equipped with a bed rail. I didn't use the kitchen, but it seemed to be well-equipped. And the terrasse looks perfect to have your breakfast with such a view. Very good location, on a quiet island...

Location is anazing, calm and relax) I come back in this place, when I am in Budapest, and recommend you too))

Very nice location and comfortable room. It was a pleasant stay for me and I can only recommend it!

We had a great stay at Island Hostel! Unfortunately our flight arrived very late at budapest which meant we could only arrive at 2 am which is outside of check out hours, but the host was very understandable and friendly. Make sure to warn then about it prior! If we are ever back to budapest we would love to stay here again.

I liked the Hostel Manager ( Ms Edit ) more than the hostel itself. She was Actually Brilliant in dealing, Behavior & Managing the Residency in general. As a person i envy the hostel's owner for her. Also regarding the hostel i liked it too much bcuz of the perfect location, Nice vibes & Cleanliness

The accommodation is located in one of the most popular and most beautiful spots in Budapest, Margaret Island, in the middle of the Danube. It is also one of the best choices in the city in terms of price-value ratio.

I stayed at Maverick Apartments for three days, and honestly, I wish I could’ve stayed longer. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, and the location was just perfect. Close enough to everything I needed, but still peaceful enough to truly relax. Every little detail, from the cozy bedding to the spotless kitchen, showed how much care goes into this place. It’s rare to find somewhere that feels...

Great location, very nice and comfortable apartment. The bathroom lacks a bit more updating and would also work on the linens.

Good experience for family , central location , nearby tourist attractions, nice and clean place , friendly and helpful staff.

Maverick Apartments were excellent value for money, very well equipped (fridge, kettle, microwave, cooker and equipment) and well located, we found that all the main attractions on both sides of the river were within easy walking distance. Staff were very friendly.

Great stay for when you just need a place to lay your head in the evening. Everything was super accessible, conditions clean, staff friendly. I’d stay again!

A good hotel room in the heart of Budapest A good hostel and hotel in the heart of Budapest. I has an elevator. Some of the rooms are for a hostel, and some are hotel rooms.

It was a great experience there.. We enjoyed a lot with the students belonging to different countries living there. The main thing is that Location was perfect in city center..

Had a great experience at this hostel! Close to Keleti station, very well priced and room was clean. Not a super social hostel, but if you’re looking for something quiet this is perfect. Only reasons I’m giving it a 4/5 is because they only accept cash, it’s a little hidden away and hard to find and the bathrooms were a little weird. But for the price you pay it’s perfect.

An authentic Budapest experience. Helpful host. Big bag of laundry only cost 1000 HUF.

The location is nice the owner is friendly and the place is clean. Since it is by the main road its a bit noisy and dusty.

Pretty good hostel if you're on a budget. I was comfortable.

I liked this hostel for three reasons: 1) It's close to everywhere. I could easily reach any part of the city as the metro station was a few meters away. 2) It's quite cheap. I stayed there for 2 whole weeks and I only payed about 50 euros. Thanks to this is that I could enjoy more the city attractions. 3) I could share with different people from all over the world. In my case I could see people...

This accommodation operates without a reception, and in our case, our flight arrived early, so we had to find a separate place to store our luggage, which was a hassle. Furthermore, the hotel lacked soundproofing, so we could hear a lot of noise. Please note that the location is within walking distance of major tourist attractions. Additionally, be aware of the restaurants.

Room and shared bathroom & toilets were very clean. Kind and Helpful staff even though they don’t speak English. Excellent location. Thank you for the wonderful stay. 😀

The place is very convenient to the location of tourist spots and transportation. Just a little comment, there is no free slippers to the room itself. Maybe next time they should have 1. And the AC doesn’t work or we just dont know how to turn on, coz remote missing.

The room was great, the bathroom was so-so

Great choice for price This hostel was very nice and well equipped. The virtual key service was broken for most of our stay so they gave us a defaults key card, but when it worked again it was fine. Location is great but pretty loud on the weekends so this is something to note. Only negative aspect was the coffee machine would break randomly but as it was an added service, not the hugest deal. You...

No toothpaste no shampoo no bath liquid washing machine not given except the price is okay nothing the waiter is not on watsupp to guide a complete no service to speak of. Luggage Storage If you need to before check-in need to pull yourself to a nearby laundry 100 RMB no matter how many hours 10 am must check out Luggage is not allowed to be placed in the living room or even not reply to messages again...

Great atmosphere, big spaces, around 15 min walk from the core of the city centre. Beds are enclosed in single boxes with own window, courtain, plug and lamp. That was very handy and helps with privacy. The entrance of the building is not so pleasant but inside the hostel is quite nice

10/10. It's clean, it's super central. Metro stop is 50m away. The best hostel in Budapest if you ask me. The location is it greatest perk. The staff is very friendly as well.

It's very close to almost all sights. All sights are in 5-20 minutes reach. The receptionists are nice and friendly, speak good English. Rooms are modern and open with a card. For additional price (1000 HUF) you can have breakfast. In some bathrooms you can find mold between the tiles. There are also occasional bedbugs (

The beds was cool and the staff nice. The pillows was hard and a little bit uncomfortable and you could hear people talk all the time. It is perfect if you just want to hade a place to sleep! You get free coffee!

A very nice and clean experience. Also, a great place for making new friends!

Amazing rooms, very modern and friendly staff. Only issue was the staff were badly organised, they gave us a room that wasnt quite finished yet and we woke up early one morning because the handy man was scrubbing paint off the floor while us 6 girls were asleep! Just a bit rude I thought...
