Hotels Near Bears & Friends in Budapest

The hotel is not bad. It is located on a hillside, high and low, from the low end to the stairs to the entrance, and from the high end to the stairs to the entrance. The room is compact and the hygiene is average. The sheets can be replaced with your own. There is a kettle. Attitude. Mainly because of the convenient location, just below the Castle Hill, there is a cable car station on the side. Magas Church and Fisherman's Bastion are not far. Convenience!

One of the most budget friendly accommodation in the city! It is in a very strategic location where it is just few meters away from bus stop and metro train station. It is also just few bus stops away from famous tourist destinations. It is near grocery store and vodafone where you can buy a sim card (tip for tourists). Rooms are clean and well maintained. They have self service washing and drying machines, common kitchen and bathrooms, common lounge area, vending machines and many more. This place is wheelchair friendly as well for those who need them. Service wise was great as well. I would commend Thomas from reception for being helpful especially when we arrived from airport at 2AM. Overall, we enjoyed staying here. It is truly a great value for money.

Stayed 5 nights for a conference with 3 other colleagues. Quaint hotel that looks its age. Had very friendly and helpful staff handling check in/out. Had taken a suite, but it was rather small. Main door opened into an anteroom with 2 internal doors - 1 of which led into bedroom (just enough space for a double bed with 2 small side tables). The other door led into a small living room (space for dressing table, couch, TV, and a small round table with a chair). Bathroom is a little dim. Breakfast buffet had standard ham and cheese cuts, scrambled eggs, breads, cereals, fruits - repeated daily. Noticed the staff change the cutlery after each dinner, but the placemats on the table is not changed. Location is excellent with nearby train and bus station leading to all major attractions. Also have supermarkets nearby.

I stayed 1 night in a 4 bed with private bathroom room. I really liked it, the bed was very comfortable and I could have private space thanks to its curtain. The bathroom was also clean, though I found it a little bit too small. The location is also perfect, so I can only recommend. What I didn't like was that the towel is not included - you can rent it for extra cost. This should be removed from the description of the room amenities and also the pictures are misleading.

Our daughter booked us this hotel as part of a 3 night trip to Budapest as a Christmas gift. After visiting Budapest herself, she thought we’d love it so booked us the trip. I don’t normally write reviews, but I thought the hotel had been served an injustice with lots of the other reviews we’d read. We’d read lots that said it was in an awful and unsafe area. The hotel is on a side street, in a city away from the centre, no different to any side street in a city we’d seen before. We saw one homeless person in a doorway, and sometimes people gathered chatting outside the Spar shop at the top of the road, and the other shops…not much of a problem. We didn’t feel unsafe or find the street to be noisy. You are a little bit out of the centre, but the bus stop and metro are conveniently located just around the corner. We used the bus which was very cheap, or free, as sometimes we were just waved on. Once inside our room we heard very little noise, from within the hotel itself, or from the road outside…only the occasional siren. The towels and sheet’s were good, and the room clean, pillows also nice quality and extras in the wardrobe. Room a comfortable temperature. The beds are low to the ground, and the mattresses firmer than we are used to, but after a 12 hour day sightseeing, and a few cocktails/beers we slept reasonably well. Little ******s with the room, a kettle with tea/coffee making facilities would have been nice for a morning cuppa before heading out. There is a small bar in the reception area where you could get coffee though, and plenty of cafes on the main street. The hairdryer overheated quite quickly and cut out. But only minor issues. The staff were not particularly chatty (us Brits love a chat!) however, helpful and courteous when needed. All in all a good stay and a good base to explore…what do you do from a hotel room? For us to sleep and shower 🤷🏻‍♀️ Budapest is an amazing city, so much to see and do, we absolutely loved exploring, enjoy!

STAY HERE! Made a mistake on my booking by getting the mixed dorm however I wanted a female room, they changed it at reception without hassle and no extra charge (€27 for 3 nights) the room is very clean, the beds are comfy and you get a privacy curtain, light, plug and hangers in your little pod. There’s a few showers, hairdryer and toilets next to the room and a place to get ready in the morning (very clean) there is a bar downstairs with tvs and also serving good food, there’s chill places to sit outside the room and a rooftop. - 1 min walk to a shop - In the centre, short walks to landmarks - A bus to the airport 10 minute walk away - Bolt, buses and trams to get everywhere Would definitely stay here again!

Currently here at the moment and tbh I’m disappointed! Not like the reviews say. It’s a good 45 min walk to the centre of Budepest. The breakfast is lack lustre at most! Luke warm hot drinks, only one side of the toaster works and very basic buffet. Rooms have no tv, or hairdryers! The amenities it says are here simply aren’t, rooftop bar closed, pasta shop never open, spar next door is very limited hours and the staff are rude. If your wanting somewhere to stay with things around it don’t stay here it feels like your in the middle of no where. Nothing much around it so do expect to be walking quite a way to get to anything. I comply understand it’s geared towards student but even these must be bored to tears with the lack of amenities around the hotel, not even anywhere to grab a bite to eat within a good 10 min walk. Would I stay here again? Absolutely not On a plus note the reception staff are lovely

Unexpectedly excellent ! Thank you! They allowed me to late check out which is really appreciated! The swimming pool and sauna is very nice and the staffs are busy but very very helpful ! Thank you Bath tab is nice ! Balcony is wonderful Yea

First of all, it's really good to reserve a spot. The outer edge of the building is a variety of colorful pipes, which are very eye-catching and easy to find. The yellow bus stop is diagonally opposite the hotel lobby on the right. It takes two minutes to walk there. Turn left and walk straight for a few minutes to the subway entrance and exit. There is a chain bakery where you can buy fresh bread and drinks. The hotel lobby is quite comfortable, with quite a lot of guests. Several young people at the front desk are polite but not smiling. Check-in is quite fast, and you can also store luggage for free. The room is not big but quite good. The hotel does not provide toiletries and disposable slippers, which need to be prepared by yourself. My order seems to have no breakfast, but the front desk told me that there is breakfast after checking in. I was very happy. I went to taste it opposite the lobby on the first floor the next day. The food is quite rich, but the various breads are relatively hard, and the toast is soft. Some are cut and some are not cut. You can cut it yourself, but the taste is salty, which surprised me. The various sausages are really delicious, and there are many varieties of cereals and nuts beside the milk. The fruit is fresh, and the honey is also delicious. I stayed for one night and checked out quickly. Overall, I recommend that you can stay again when you come to Budapest

Hotel is easy reachable by car and has very good connectivity within 5-10 min walk (bus, tram and metro). Interior is cosy and colourful, breakfast is decent, rooms are nice. Perhaps we missed a shelf in bathroom. The only thing that I really didn't understand is price policy and relatively big difference between the price we paid and price advertised on the screen in the lobby. Parking fee of 10€/day could also be included in room rate.
