art'otel budapest, by Park Plaza

The art’otels are perhaps more like auteur hotels—every detail created or curated by the hand of a single artist, resulting in a rather more unified vision than the typical committee-designed chain hotel, and an escape from uninspired hotel art to boot. In this case the auteur is the American artist Donald Sultan, whose close-up still-lifes teeter on the edge between realism and abstraction, a conceit that, beyond its artistic merits, makes for eye-catching interior design.
Located on the banks of the Danube, on the Buda side, the art’otel Budapest occupies four 18th-century houses and one new building, making for spectacular water views on one side, and a look at the Castle Hill from the other. Guest rooms are divided between the new and old buildings, and contrary to expectations, the newer ones are the smaller—though they compensate with views of the Danube. The historic houses have a bit more personality, with heavy old metal doors and separate showers.
The color scheme is a brilliant red and a metallic grey, a refreshing break from the prevailing cloud-white of less confident boutique hotels. And the Chelsea restaurant is something to behold, serving lighter foreigner-friendly Hungarian fare in a handsome dining room, with black-and-white checked floors and possibly the least cloying butterfly image we’ve ever seen, courtesy of Donald Sultan, of course. Book early, as this is one of Budapest’s top hotels—we’d like to say it’s a well-kept secret, but the word is out on this one.

I Liked
We were upgraded to a room with view of the Danube and the Parliament, which was amazing. Past reviews of a rather mediocre breakfast are no longer valid; I would say that their breakfast buffet is really rich now. In general, the hotel offers great value for its pricing.
What the hotel could do better
Nothing, really.

Good size rooms.
What the hotel could do better
Breakfast was a bit pathetic and not worth the extra 12 Euro per night personally I wouldn't recommend it.
Wi-fi was also ridiculously priced. Most hotels include wi-fi as standard free of charge, not here.

Location is very convenient; staff were very pleasant; rates were very reasonable
What the hotel could do better
Biggest flaw in my stay was the persistent odor of cigarette smoke throughout the hallways and intermittently in the room; internet access was overpriced at something like EUR 20/day for full/broadband access; room was not made up until fairly late in the day on 2 of the 3 days during stay; the bed was one of those beds that you find at European hotels that isn't really a queen size bed but two twins slid next to each other, so that if you're sleeping with someone, you each wind up clinging to a narrow little duvet and one of you winds up stuck in the crevasse betweent the two twin mattresses

as soon as you walk into through the huge doors the place was amazing...
there is a water feature in the middle of the seating area in the reception room...the artwork is great...the butterflies were the my main delight.
the room was overlooking the river and one could see the houses of parliament.....the location is excellent...a quick walk to the chain bridge and you are in the centre....i would definately recommend the art'otel.
What the hotel could do better
nothing

The personal service was exceptional. Bettie, at the front desk, really helped all of us in our large party with many things. Our luggage was lost by British Airways, and she stayed on them until it arrived two days later, after it was lost in London.
She assisted each of us. We were there for our brother's wedding, and it was very complicated for us to all get around. She helped facilitate everything, and always with a smile.
The food was good, and the people working in the breakfast area were on top of everything.
What the hotel could do better
It would have been nice to have a greater variety of food choices in the bar area and rooms.

These reviews are posted exclusively by verified guests whose stays were booked through TabletHotels.com. We do encourage our clients to express their opinions, and what makes a hotel experience great is often something subjective, a matter of personal taste. At the same time, many of the hotels we list are extreme in one dimension or another, and are bound to disappoint somebody somewhere. These reviews are an excellent way to identify a hotel's particular quirks, and thereby avoid a poor hotel-guest match. But remember: if a hotel's overall customer rating falls lower than 15 out of 20, the hotel will be removed from our listings.
The opinions expressed in these reviews are solely those of our clients; the opinions expressed in any hotel management responses are solely those of the hotels themselves. We do not endorse any of the opinions expressed within the reviews, and we are not affiliated with any of the hotels in question. We reserve the right to remove any of the review or management response at our discretion.
