The Magazine Hotel & Apartments

Location is excellent on St Stephens Sq with views of the Basilica from our window. Lots of bars / restaurants and shops within minutes walking distance. Good location to walk in any direction to see the sites. Rooms are split over different floors with other flats access in the block

The location is very very good. I would recommend and if we return I’ll be staying here again. Start friendly and helpful

the location was perfect, very central. Rooms were very clean and modern

Sorry but I have to be honest about my worst check-in experience here. I was checking in at around 9pm, which was after the reception hours (8am-8pm). Beforehand they sent me a password to open a locker that holds my room key. When I opened the designated locker, it was empty and I panicked a lot. I called the hotel's emergency phone number and luckily it worked. I was told that very unfortunately some staff had mixed up the lockers and put the room key in another locker :/ Very soon I was given the correct password and locker with great help from the staff over the phone. It is safe to say this is the worst thing that any traveler can experience in a hotel - receiving wrong information about check-in procedures, with the fear you might have nowhere to stay overnight, or have to carry around your heavy luggage in search of another hotel. I know this incident happens rarely, but it's a mistake that should not happen even for once. This bad experience aside, this hotel has an enjoyable view of the Basilica and is close to metro stations and airport bus 100E. Decorations were modern and space was adequate. Sometimes the crowd in the plaza could be noisy till late nights though. Overall I enjoyed the hotel very much despite the initial bad check-in arrangement.

We stayed the first weekend of December and booked a room with a view. Right outside our window was the Christmas market and the Cathedral....just beautiful! Staff were friendly and had great information to share about our stay, our room was clean, and the space was very quiet. This is a great place to stay if you want to be able to get around Budapest easily...we saw all the major sights on foot because we were so central.

Central location - however very noisy - and the rooms had a very pungent smell

The hotel / apartments were fantastic. Excellent location, polite, helpful and friendly staff. Would highly recommend for couples and groups. No area for complaint.

Best location! Cool staff and attention to details like the card with most common frases.

Wonderful location for access to the city. Room was nice, especially for the concert on Friday, 23/8. Front desk was very helpful even assisting with our luggage. Room was noisy with bar below us, but considering other benefits we didn’t mind. Would come back!

Loved the location, beautiful area and so near to everything we wanted to do. Really friendly staff. Nice spacious room with city view. We arrived after reception closed and it was a little dark and difficult to find our room but we would definitely come back here again.
