This hostel was just off the centre of Budapest, but there were still plenty of little cafes and bars, it was just a 10-15 minute easy walk from Deak Ferenc, the centre transport area. It was lovely and clean and rooms are set around a little courtyard. Staff were very helpful and our room had great facilities including air conditioning, a safe and a kettle for hot tea and coffee. Would definitely stay here again.

Very nice stay
The room was a bit worn - doors and furniture in need of some renovation/repair, but otherwise I have no complaints. Room was cleaned daily, bed was comfortable and windows opened. A quiet residential type of neighborhood with nearby coffee shops, restaurants and delis. The room would not be updated enough for some but it didn’t bother me, especially for the price. FYI you do have to climb a short flight of stairs to get to reception. All staff was helpful and can get your laundry done for a fair price. When I first arrived, I was a bit unsure as it was dark on the street and the signage wasn’t clear. You are buzzed in and walk up the stairs to reception so you need to handle your bags I felt very safe- you need a key to access the outside door, then again to access the hallway and again to get into your room. I would definitely return.

The hotel is a gem. For something so affordable, they really pay attention to the details. The location is excellent--it is on a very quiet and peaceful street near restaurants that locals go to while also being close to tourist attractions and tourist nightlife--also a 10 minute walk from bus to airport. The rooms are clean, service excellent, and there are lots of nice touches--towels folded into swans on the bed, special glasses for brandy/cordials... I highly recommend it. As a woman traveling alone, I felt very safe in the hotel and getting to and from it at night.

Service/front desk was AMAZING! Very friendly and accommodating. Location is super central and public transportation was great. Beds were comfortable. Nothing to complain about. Felt clean, could be a little more modern, but did not feel like a problem since we were only there to sleep after exploring all day. Wifi worked.

After long search, I found this hotel (Central 121) which is located at H-1085 Budapest ,Maria Utca 10 ( first floor with no lifts). Although I booked flight and stay via Expedia, I was surprised to hear from the Hotel Manager that my booking was cancelled because I was expected to arrive the day before!. He claimed that he wasn't informed properly by Expedia of my booking itinerary (flight and stay)? He kindly directed me to look for vacancies at other hotels nearby but didn't make any effort himself to help. He informed that he refunded booking money to Expedia after deducting for one night stay. This was not a good welcome news and has caused me a lot of pain, suffering and trouble looking for another hotel to stay at extra costs as I had no help from anybody at all. Therefore, I'm in process of complaining to Expedia about their booking arrangements and what followed afterwards at Central Hotel 121..
