2-Star Hotels in Pest, Hungary

"The scenery is beautiful, it's close to the airport and very convenient. It's an hour's drive from the city center and very close to the bus and train stations. The house has a good structure and complete facilities, making for a great stay."

"This is a chain hotel with a consistent style, suitable for all ages. We were allowed to check in before 2 PM, which was a nice touch. Our room was on the top floor and the window could be adjusted for ventilation. There's a restaurant, and I saw a buffet in the evening. The front desk staff were very welcoming."

"The hostel is very new and very beautiful. The rooms are perfectly clean and bathroom/toilet/hot water running perfectly. Very nice and quite rich breakfast, although everyday the same, but still good enough. The hostel has a hidden garden with beautiful light and atmoshpere. The rooftop is very lovely, with amazing views of sunset and moonlight, intimate lighting and many seats available. The weekend was full of parties and DJ sets on the rooftop. The locaion very central and very accessible by Transport. very close to clubs and other places to hangout. Stuff is quite helpful and professional. I loved my stay here, neve rhad any single problem or disagreement. I totlaly recommend this place and will come back even myself."

"Terrace is awesome, staff friendly. Vacak the cat is awesome too. This hostel is a great option to spend some time on the island, had a good night sleep and it was clean. Often though staff can be missing from the reception during the stated reception hours, and nearby is more of a party scene with few quality dining options. The 400ft Costa coffee capsules aren't exactly good either, so there is some space for improvement compared to some of the newer hostels in town."

"Stayed here many times. Good choice if you need Keleti station. The doors lock. Friendly staff for check in & out. Bed is fine. Pillows are dreadful. Unreliable wifi. Good showers. Overall it's worth the price and value for money"

"The common toilet was surprisingly spotless and clean. There was also good privacy with the black out curtains. Unfortunately my roommate was speaking on the phone through the night and the morning as well but that’s not on the hostel, just people. I’m also unsure how well they cleaned the bed because the previous owner left her room card on the ledge by the bed and it was still there. There was also a piece of long hair when i opened the blanket (i have short hair) but free luggage storage and all its cool"

"The location is very good and convenient. There are many restaurants, fast food and Lidl is just round the corner. Metro and bus stops are in front of the hostel. On the contrary to the good things, the hostel doesn't provide any toiletries. Not even a small piece of soap. The most inconvenient is that the bathroom is outside the room, and there's only one toilet! When checkout, the visitor has to clear the bedsheet and bring it down to the reception. With all the pros and cons, it really depends on what one needs. If it's just to have a place for a short stay, it's not bad at all."

"I'm very satisfied with this hotel. The room is small and cozy, everything is compact and well-arranged. There's a fridge (minibar), a TV, and the windows open, so you can air out the room. The convenient shelves on the wall are a great touch!"

"I stayed at Marco Polo Hostel for one week after reading many positive reviews. Here’s my honest take: 📍 Location (10/10): The location is perfect—right in the city center. It’s just a 5–8 minute walk from both Metro 2 (where the hostel is) and Metro 3 / Deak Ferenc Ter (for the 100E airport bus). Couldn’t ask for better. 👋 First Impression & Check-in: I arrived early at 9 AM on Christmas Day (Dec 25), well before the 2 PM check-in. A friendly staff member (chubby, helpful) allowed me to leave my luggage in the storage room—a very kind gesture that started my stay on a positive note. When I returned to check in, there was a small confusion about my booking (I accidentally booked for 2 people in a 12-bed dorm instead of 1), but the staff handled it calmly and professionally. They also helped sort out a postal code issue for my Hong Kong details—thank you! 🛏 Room & Sleep: I was assigned beds 3 & 4 in a 2nd-floor dorm. The bunk beds are subdivided, offering decent privacy. Noise was minimal—maybe 10–15 minutes of understandable movement here and there, but nothing disruptive. Most guests were European ( students, southeast Asians and Europeans) staying short-term. Male and female dorms are separate. 🚿 Bathrooms & Facilities: All showers worked perfectly—good hot/cold water. Remember to bring your own towel and toiletries. As a backpacker, I was prepared, but it’s worth noting. 🍞 Breakfast: Available for 3200 HUF. Simple but satisfying—fresh, hand-made bread was delicious. I’ve never eaten so much bread in my life, and I mean that in a good way! 💧 Water & Extras: Bottled water is available for 500 HUF. The friendly slim staff even gave me a discount when I bought five bottles. Tap water in Hungary is drinkable, so you can refill if you prefer. I also appreciated the staff’s fluency in English—communication was never an issue. 🔑 Small Issues Handled Well: Once I locked myself out of my room, and they promptly lent me a spare key. My key card occasionally failed, but they fixed it in under a minute. The team is flexible and quick to help. ❤ Nice Touch: During check-in, the staff introduced a charity donation for kids in Hungary. I donated for the first time here—felt good to contribute. 📌 Final Tips: Read the house rules posted near the counter. Bring your own toiletries and towel. The hostel is well-run, clean, and staffed by helpful, English-speaking professionals. ✅ Overall: Great value for money, excellent location, and genuinely helpful staff. I’d happily stay again and recommend it to fellow travelers. I will definitely come back here for my solo travel!"
