–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Not ideal for walking to Pest side — While the hotel is perfectly placed for Castle District sights, reaching the Pest side of the city on foot takes around 20 minutes, which some guests may find too far.
- Limited on-site parking — Parking is available, but the hotel does not specify whether it is free or on-site; given the historic district, spaces may be limited.
- No pets allowed (with one reported exception) — The hotel policy states no pets, though one guest mentioned they were able to bring an autism support dog. This may be a special case rather than a standard allowance.
- Price point may be high for some — While guests generally find the hotel good value, the nightly rate from £138 may be considered steep for budget travelers, especially given the walk to Pest.
