I am writing this from what I would imagine to be a suite on this boat. It is so much larger than the other rooms I have seen. Number one tip, pay cash. I was told on reception that if you pay cash you get a better room. I booked this at the rate of 40 Euros per night with... more

My husband and i just returned from our week-long stay in Budapest and loved our stay at the Fortuna. Staying on a boat was a great and unique experience, sitting out on the deck every evening was a great and relaxing way to end each day. Staff was very helpful and very reliable. The breakfast buffet was great, with a... more

We enjoyed 4 nights at the Boatel in July and found it to be a unique experience but an enjoyable one. The location was convenient to many sights, and especially to Margaret Island, and the breakfast was one of the best buffets we experienced for the price. Only criticism would be the less than adequate aircon during the hot afternoon... more

I was very excited to be staying on a boat, this one having hotel rooms on the 2nd and 1st floors and the hostel rooms below deck. The room itself was quite large, I think i got a double room, though I only booked a single. The sheets were clean, and I was provided with a towel, which were changed... more

If you are looking for somewhere cheap and cheerful to stop in Budapest then this place is great. We stopped for 3 nights and it worked out as roughly £50 per night. That includes breakfast and dinner. The breakfast was lovely. However, we did not eat dinner on the boat as it didn't look too nice. The boat is in... more

The boat is docked in the center of town, across from the island, which makes everything really convenient. Public transportation is about a 7 minute walk along the river away, which is not bad at all. I stayed in the hostel rooms, which are downstairs. It was a perfect size for me, very comfortable and affordable. I very much enjoyed... more

I stayed in the Fortuna Botel for nine nights. It was during the Sziget -week. For those of you who do'nt know: Sziget is a huge popfestival on an island in the Danube a few kilometers away in the middle of august. Fortuna is located excellent for Sziget-visitors. About 300 meters away from the botel lies the boat that goes... more

Although this hotel is one of the cheapest places to stay in Budapest, there are a few things to keep in mind before choosing to stay there. First of all the rooms are extremely small in size. If you are taller than 1,80m then you might have a problem stretching yourself while in bed and will probably bump into the... more

This is a good place to stay, right on the river in Budapest. It's a little walk to the shops, 5 or 10 minutes. Some may complain about walking that far, I think it's no problem. Bed was good, aircon was great (summer) and the food in the restaurant was very nice. Breakfast was fairly standard continental, but good. And... more
