I had a fantastic experience at Al Habtoor Palace over the Christmas period. I was given a beautiful room, and the mattress was as excellent as expected—exceptionally comfortable. The overall atmosphere of the hotel has a wonderful energy. As a self-confessed spa enthusiast, I particularly loved the spa facilities, including the pool, whirlpool, sauna, and steam bath—they are outstanding. Breakfast was delicious, with a great selection and quality. I also booked the Christmas dinner, which was truly fabulous (and yes, it is worth mentioning that the chef is Austrian!). The newly renovated Velvet Bar is a real highlight: a vibrant atmosphere, excellent service, and a warm, welcoming feeling that makes you feel at home. I stayed at this property when it was still the Ritz-Carlton, and I can confidently say that it is now even better. I will be back.

We were greeted once we exited the taxi, accompanied to the reception where we were offered coffee/prosecco/juice. Staff were extremely professional and pleasant (With the exception of the bar staff). Rooms are very well appointed and we had a beautiful view over the park.

First time we stayed at this property it was under Ritz Carlton management. Now it is the Al Habtoor who owns/manages it and it was fantastic!! The customer service was above and beyond expectations. The property met all 5 Star promises, but the staff were the ones who took our stay to another level. Loved every minute. Worth every dime. We were actually sad when our stay came to an end.

We had a lovely stay at Habtoor Palace Budapest- this is our second time in less than a year. The location is excellent, very central and easy to get around the city. The hotel itself is elegant and beautiful, with a real palace feel but still very comfortable. The gym is beautiful well equipped, the pool, sauna and jacuzzi all added value to our stay especially when weather is cold. The staff were amazing – friendly, helpful, and always welcoming. You really feel taken care of from the moment you arrive. The in-room amenities were a big wow – Diptyque products! I even asked reception if it was possible to take them home, and to my surprise, the General Manager, Mr. Rahim Abu Omar, was kind enough to leave them as a gift in our room. Such a thoughtful and generous gesture. Mr. Rahim was incredibly welcoming, and very down to earth. It truly made our stay extra special. Highly recommend this hotel if you’re visiting Budapest.

Le Meridien, Budapest, which included a dinner and certain other amenities, was an outstanding experience. The suite was very large, comfortable and quiet - everything we could have asked for. The dinner was "no holds barred" including, to my great surprise, an excellent bottle of wine. All in all, the experience was absolutely first-rate.
