Corinthia Hotel Budapest

It was our first time in Budapest and we stayed there to celebrate myself and another friends milestone birthdays. Although they upgraded one of the rooms (2 were booked) I couldn't see much difference. We got a coffee machine (that didn't work), patio doors that led to an open area overlooking the atruim dining area. No chairs or table there and you couldn't come back to your room if door was shut so bit of a security issue. What's the point of this added feature? The twin room was dimly lighted and dark. It didn't feel like an upgraded room. The room cleaning was not consistent and felt rushed. The turn down service was inconsistent. No spa was included in our room rate. Just to use the spa was 32€ for the day. This didn't include treatment costs. So we didn't use. We didn't think it was value for money. There was no discount either, even though we have a loyalty membership. I have seen many reviews on how special occasions have been acknowledged and guests given an excellent and preferential treatment. But for us, the hotel failed to acknowledge our milestone birthdays even though I wrote a couple of times, months in advance of the trip. The reception on our arrival said that there would be a surprise in our room. We waited and nothing materialised for the duration of our stay. A couple good points, the concierge was really helpful and he knew what to recommend us for sightseeing. Breakfast was lovely as was the omelette chef. Good variety of food for all. However, we felt our trip and experience of the stay at this hotel, was marred due to the points earlier raised.

I prefer a hotel with a large comfortable lobby. This hotel had this and more with its atriums. We had the spa package but did not take advantage of it. No fault of the hotel. If this is your thing, this place is for you. The room was comfortable. The staff were all very welcoming and helpful. The breakfasts were amazing. Dinner was good with prices a bit higher as you might expect.

We were recommended this hotel by friends , so I decided to upgrade to an executive suite for my wife's birthday When we checked in Zozan was so kind as to upgrade to a bigger room ,it's made our break She was wonderful and could not do enough . The spa and facilities were amazing and the upper executive lounge was a treat. This was truly a 5 star weekend dates. Thank you Corinthian for my my wife's birthday as day to remember

I was *very* excited to discover one of the (allegedly) three pieces of the filmic "Grand Budapest Hotel" by W. Anderson (I was told they got the grand double-staircase). The staff was excellent, and I want to that ZOZAN who took great care of myself and my (then) pregnant wife . The rest of stay was relaxing inside this luxurious historical place.

This hotel did not fail to impress! The room was luxuriously large (a "superior room" with a king but it wasn't a suite), the bathroom was spacious and actually had a bathtub AND a stand alone shower, the bed was very comfortable and the pillows were great along with cotton bedding that made the whole thing super restful and relaxing. If you get a chance, go to the pool in the spa! It's gorgeously restored and the pool temperature is perfect for swimming. The Ph balance was just right to be safe but not give me itching skin! The hot tubs (2!) were a nice hot temp and the jets were relaxing and strong. And the breakfast buffet... spectacular! So much variety and quality!!! A feast for the eyes and stomach. I really enjoyed the architecture and the restoration of the hotel. That they would take the time and effort to restore and update the building instead of making it modern and boring really was inspiring.
