Very good location to visit the city. Hard to find the door/reception to. Nice and clean. Curtains could not block the sun out (early up in the mornings). Would not recommend the breakfast in their restaurant. It’s pricey (18eur/person), it is a-la-carte and the choices are creative but not very breakfast-like ;-)

The service of the staff was amazing. Staff was welcoming and did what they could to assure our comfort. The rooms are spacious but slightly dated. The rooms could use some attention to detail such as ceiling paint. Other than that, our stay was cozy.

Was a very nice stay in one of the Suites. Great location and access to restaurant. Style is a bit dated with a late 70’s minimalist and hostel feel. Room was as pictured, in fact bigger than. My only comment was the bathroom sink, it needs a redesign and it was a mess to even wash one’s hands or brush the teeth. The is one complaint I have, the hotels transportation service, Welcome Pickups, is terrible, we were stuck at the airport on arrival for 45 minutes waiting for a driver that told us to wait outside in the cold. One would expect a person to be waiting for you, not one that has you call when you get there.. they were supposed to monitor the flights… and on the departure, the Welcome Pickups drive left use in the arrival area parking lot where we had to struggle with our luggage and then when we find the departure area upstairs, there is an area in front where taxi’s can drop you off at the entrance… i guess the drivers do not have airport taxi permits.. with this said, if you do not have a bit of luggage, i would consider just booking a cab on arrival or via bolt… so much for attentive transport

Staff were excellent and friendly. Ambience, the decor, I mean everything. This was better than some of the 5 star hotels I have stayed. I stayed only 2 nights and wished if I could have stayed more. But if I get a chance to visit Budapest again, I won’t be searching any other hotels, it will be this same hotel.

Stories Hotel Budapest is a truly romantic and unforgettable place to stay. The hotel itself is beautifully designed—unique, stylish, and full of character—feeling more like a curated experience than a traditional hotel. Every detail feels intentional, creating a warm, intimate atmosphere that’s perfect for a special getaway.
What truly sets Stories apart, though, is the staff. Every interaction was met with genuine kindness, care, and an eagerness to help. They were incredibly accommodating, thoughtful, and attentive without ever feeling intrusive. From recommendations to special requests, nothing felt like too much trouble. It’s rare to find a hotel that combines such distinctive design with such heartfelt hospitality. We left already talking about when we’ll return.

Great boutique hotel in the heart of Budapest. Very well located, with all the main sightseeing spots within just a few kilometers. Naturally, being downtown and close to the nightlife area, it can be a bit noisy. Improving the windows and doors would make it even better.
The room facilities were excellent, including a jacuzzi and sauna right in the room — such a perfect way to relax every evening.
Budapest is a fantastic city with great food and amazing sights.
