Enjoyed the visit to Budapest immensely. The hotel was in a perfect location. The staff of the hotel were friendly and informative. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful place filled with lovely, dark wood, antiques, and warm, friendly staff. The breakfast was great, and the location was perfect! Pretty pricey, but treat yourself to this one! You won't be disappointed!

Burg Hotel has the most amazing views of Matthias Church and Fishermans Bastion. It is truly breathtaking, especially at night. However, the bus stop is right outside of the hotel and comes every few minutes until midnight and then starts again at 5:00 in the morning. This makes for a lot of noise, especially if you are a light sleeper. If you can accept […] this mild inconvenience, then you will love this hotel! The staff are very helpful and speak excellent English. Read more

The location of this hotel and free parking are the best sides of this hotel. It is right on the castle hill and you can see an old church right from the window for most of the rooms. Breakfast is OK, receptionist was very and very friendly.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The location of the Burg Hotel is amazing. We had a great view of Matthias out our skylight windows, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The only concern is that the rooms could use some updating. The bathrooms looked to have been recently redone, but the room furnishings were a bit dated. If you're not fussy about what a room looks like than this […] is definitely a good choice though! Read more

No A/C in the rooms, but otherwise a great place. Superb location in Buda with St. Stephen's church across the street. Very friendly staff, all spoke English better than some Americans i know.

The location of this hotel is amazing, especially for the price. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Would choose this place again without any thought.

The rates were likely off-season winter rates, and it was deadly cold in Budapest at the time, but Hotels.com came up with an excellent rate, one that made me slightly suspicious, despite the address. Those suspicions were, however, groundless. Not only is the Burg Hotel perfectly situated in the Castle District, it's also a charming hotel with very […] good service, friendly professional staff and a very nice breakfast buffet included. Mattyas Church was directly outside my window and I couldn't have asked for a better location. Simply brilliant. The entire Castle District is literally outside your door and only minutes, at most, away on foot. There's also a commanding view of the Danube, the historic and breathtaking Parliament building and all of Budapest mere steps away from the hotel front door. There's a bus stop (quiet and unobtrusive) right in front of the hotel to take you to other parts of Budapest, as well as a taxi stand just opposite. Transportation is very convenient. Driving in may be another story as parking is somewhat at a premium in that area of the city. Weather willing and if one is feeling fit, one can easily walk down the hill to visit hot baths, restaurants, pubs and cages along the river or cross over the Chain Bridge to the other side. With the rates I paid, the level of service and the excellent location, I can't recommend the hotel highly enough. An excellent choice. Read more

The Burg Hotel was a clean, well maintained hotel near the beautiful Mathias Church. Castle Hill is gated and quite at night perfect for night walks extremely safe area.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel was nice. The staff helpful. The rooms were clean & comfortable. The only problems were encountered were that we ended up with wet towels one day & they said we would have to wait till the next day to get more clean towels. The hotel is on the top of a hill so to get anywhere we had to walk down the hill & back up many steep steps. Someone […] elderly or in poor health would not be able to deal with this. We got off our bus at the bottom of the hill in the rain & could not make it up the hill due to all the stairs. We were a rocks throw from the hotel & had to get a taxi to make it uphill with our luggage. They did not help us get our luggage to our room & have not elevator. Read more

Excellent budget hotel and you cannot beat the location right in the heart of the castle district. Unbelievable value. Rooms are sparse, but for the price, including fee parking and continental breakfast! Wow.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was very nice location and beautiful setting but since my room was above bus station, It was little noisy but I will still recomend for everybody to stay this Hotel

Genuine Expedia guest review

Nice hotel in a great location (castle district) surrounded by a number of good restaurants. Breakfast was good and everybody was very friendly. Good value for money if you are not looking for luxury accommodation. Quite a steep walk to the metro station.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Pleasant hotel right in the heart of the Castle District. We were lucky to have a room with a great view of Budpest. No elevator but desk staff will help bring suitcases to your room. Good Internet connection in room even on top floor. Breakfast buffet is sufficient.

Advantages: 1. The hotel is nice, the service is great 2. Has a great view on the Buda castle 3. Surrounded by cafes, restaurants and a grocery store Disadvantages: 1. Very far from the most attractions, need to take a bus and then change for train 2. Has no elevator, need to climb up the long stairs with the heavy luggage 3. Poor breakfast selection 4. […] Electrical plugs in the rooms are hidden Read more

Great small hotel, fantastic location and view of the city. One drawback, no elevator

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Front desk people very helpful. Steps away from from a wonderful elevated view of the Danube and Parliament. Unbelievable at night. Clean and comfortable.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel was described in our Europe book as a "hidden treasure" and it sure was. We could not have asked for a better location, a super clean room and more than willing to help staff. They went out of their way to help us in any way they could.The only bad thing is no elevator but again the staff was once again willing to help with the luggage since […] our room was in the second floor facing a gorgeous view of St. Matias Church. We will recommend this hotel to everyone. Great value. Read more

In this price range is this a best hotel in area of Buda Castle. The bus stop is in the front of the hotel. Metro station is under the hill. Breakfast is middleeuropean standard. Rooms are clean. If you want a vacation or a stay in the centre of hungarian history, this is the right place.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Great price! Great location! What more could you want. We stayed at the Burg in Nov. 2010. We had the corner room overlooking the church and the view was beautiful. The decor in the rooms is a little outdated but they are clean, big, and very comfortable. Breakfast was included and it was good. Nothing to complain about. The selection was decent for […] a buffet style breakfast, nothing extravagant however. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

By far the friendliest hotel staff we have ever encountered in the EU; everyone spoke to the best of my knowledge at least 5 languages fluently. Breakfast bar was refilled instantly, with hot and cold items. Rooms were exceptionally clean. Could not ask for a better location anywhere in Budapest. Best value for your money anywhere in Budapest.

We had a wonderful time. The staff were very attentive , helpful and making sure that we had nothing else to do but to enjoy our stay.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This was my first visit to Hungary, and I chose the Burg hotel based on location and affordability. The cab driver from the airport remarked that I had chosen " a very good hotel, " and I was not dissapointed. The Burg Hotel is located in the castle Hill section on the Buda side. Withing walking distance to Buda Castle, other major sights, shopping, […] and restaurants. I found a charming bakery a block away down an alley, there was a wine tasting on the corner, and the view was outstanding. The room was clean, had a cranking AC, and since I was traveling with my father, we appreciated the suite room, which was two seperate bedrooms, each with climate control and a seperate TV. Do not except a major high tech flat screen TV, but as I was sightseeing, that did not bother me. I had a little trouble with the key and lock as I really had to keep turning the lock in order to get the door open. In addition, I would not recommend this hotel to disabled visitors as there are no elevators, and the tub area required a big step to get into. Lastly, the free breakfast was filling and varied, unlike another place that I stayed at in Hungary. All in all I would stay here again. Read more

Best location in town (Buda), across the square from Matthias Church. On problem, for those who need it, there is no elevator.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The bad bits........Not the prettiest building to look at, inside or out (the again the Hilton opposite is quite literally an eye sore and embarrassment of Budapest form 1977), and the decor/furnishings (reception and room) were hardly the most gorgeous or modern. Bed was a bit firm and the breakfast was 'adequate' at best. Shame no hot drink making […] facilities in room. The good bits.........Clean and tidy throughout, fantastic location central on Castle Hill. Amazing view from my room (#105) of the Matthias Church and Fishermans Bastion. Incredibly helpful and pleasant staff who spoke brilliant English. Value for money. Free wi-fi connection. Read more

We stayed two nights and we really didn't want to leave! Excellent hotel with really friendly, helpful staff and very clean, comfortable rooms, in the best possible location. I really couldn't compliment the place enough!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I checked in fairly late on Sat evening and checked out very early on Sunday so my stay was very short. I required a comfortable inexpensive hotel in a particular area of Budapest, and the Hotel Burg met these requirements quite well. The room was simply furnished, en suite bathroom was also simply fitted out.The breakfast was first class, self service […] with an extensive choice of cooked and cold foods. The hotel appears to be in a fashionable up-market district, although it was quite quiet on a Saturday night. Read more

Ideal place to stay; lots of restaurants and things to see in the vicinity, fantastic views over the river. A walk down town in about 10 minutes. Taxi pick-up service from airport very reliable.

My family and I stayed a the Burg for approx two weeks while visiting Budapest. Overall it was a decent hotel: It was clean, the front staff was always friendly and helpful, checkout and check in were fast and easy. It's located in a safe/touristy area and the views of St. Matthias church are great. They have breakfast included which is super convenient, […] even if the selection is minimal. There are no elevators, and it lacked some basic ammenities such as in-room irons and no laundry service and no ice machines. Also, the only electrical outlet we could use to charge our camera batteries was in the washroom and required the light/fan switch to be on in order to work. Read more

Room is basic but clean In Excellent location with fantastic view of the church and surrounded by good food & coffee. Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. There was a mistake with our airport transfer booking but the hotel staff spotted it and make the necessary modifications to the reservation immediately.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The Burg is on the right side of town (Buda), in the right position (sharing the square with St Matias Church). A "high class" hotel is across the square, but charge much, much more. I'll be back at The Burg in a heartbeat. Just remember to find the small bus, on route 16. It will be your savior! The manager and his employees were supportive and accommodating. […] The room was clean (perhaps the shower screen the only blemish). A place worth staying at, in a city worth visiting! Read more

Great. Not exactly luxurious - the furniture was on the cheap side and the TV pretty small - but very much what I expected and good value. Most important of all for us - QUIET. Very quiet. Lovely breakfast too.

This hotel is excellent value for money. It is in an ideal location for sight seeing, being right in the the centre of the Castle District. Our room had lovely views of Trinity Square and Matyas Church. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful.

We enjoyed our stay at the Burg hotel. Great location, safe and not too noisey. The bus stopped right outside the hotel. The rooms were dated but clean. The bathroom was large enough. The hotel staff were extremely helpful and were very knowledgeable. The breakfast was very filling and the view from the breakfast room was fanastic.

We had a weekend break here in December for the Christmas Markets and were very pleased. The hotel is on the Buda side in the World Heritage area, a lovely part to walk round with bars and restaurants too. It is only a 15-20 minute walk to the busier Pest side on the other side of the Danube. The hotel itself is small and quite basic, but it was clean […] and fairly comfortable. Breakfast is continental and there is a breakfast room on each floor which is nice. The view from our room was amazing, looking over the square past the church and over the river to see the city all lit up. We wanted somewhere reasonable to use as a base for exploring and this hotel fitted the bill. Maybe the one drawback is that there wasn't an English speaking TV channel, but that was a minor thing as we weren't in the hotel for much apart from sleeping. I would not hesitate to go back there and am already planning to return next year. Read more

This Hotel lived up to it's Trip adviser wrtite up. If you want to stay on the Buda side, the location is unbeatable, right in the centre of the historic town with dramatic views over the Danube and other landmarks. Good value. The bus stops just outside the hotel, frequently, with a cheap fare ( around £1) to the centre of Pest and links with all other […] transport. The Hotel is not great luxury but we found it perfect for our wekend break. Read more

This was the first time I have visited Budapest, and when I departed the Burg Hotel I picked up a leaflet providing details of e-mail address and telephone number because I am definitely returning to Budapest, and I will definitely use the Burg Hotel hotel. It is well run and the location is second to none - right opposite the Matthias Church in the […] Castle district. The breakfasts may be a little the same each day, and I think that the room furniture needs to be upgraded. But hey! You are in Budapest, and your hotel is merely a base for your trip. The entire staff of the hotel do an excellent job, and they all ensured that my stay was comfortable. On one occasion they were prepared to go the extra mile in providing me with the necessary utensils in order for me to enjoy a quick snack in my room as I needed to run off for a quick appointment. Thank you Expedia for facilitating this trip, and thank you Burg Hotel for making me welcome and comfortable in the beautiful city of Budapest. Read more

A small friendly modest hotel that I have stayed in four times. Its proximity to the Castle and the Fishermans Bastion make it the perfect site to start sightseeing. There is a tourist information office opposite, and regular buses pass the door to take one to Pest. It gives the impression of being family run. The breakfast room is light and the breakfast […] is more than adequate. There are several restaurants nearby, plus a supermarket and post office.The price is perfect for a weekend break and I would not stay anywhere else Read more
