Hotel Rumor

Hotel Rumour is a beautiful hotel in a fantastic location. It’s right next to the metro and the place where the Airport bus stops and very handy for numerous sights in Budapest. The hotel is on the first floor of a fantastic old Budapest block with a central courtyard and feels connected to the historic city in that way. The room I was in was large and completely silent day and night. Rooms next to the road with a better view might be more noisy but I think this place is hard to beat at the price. Best of all, the staff were extremely helpful, always proactive and kind.

Lovely clean, modern, warm boutique hotel in the centre of town minutes from the Christmas markets and everything you want. Minutes walk from the 100E airport shuttle bus which is great. Friendly staff, big room and huge bed and all very quiet. The restaurant next door Lisboa do a fantastic breakfast/brunch too. Supermarket round the corner for any essentials. Welcome coffee on arrival was a nice touch. Netflix on tv also a good shout when you’re home after a long day sightseeing/shopping etc.

The location was excellent. Just by the metro station Deak Ferenc ter and where the airport express bus 100E stops (2200 HUF) so you arrive more quickly than by taxi. Also easy access to Keleti train station by metro. It is located in a busy place but very quiet inside. We were two female travellers and felt safe all the time. Nearby a lot of tourist trap restaurants but also hidden gems with reasonable prices where locals dine (Paulay Ede street). The room (standard) felt more spacious than in the pictures and the bathroom was bigger than in many other hotels. I would definitely use this hotel again.

It is the helpful and always-available staff that makes this place special—they made great recommendations for meals and transport. The common spaces were quite pretty, which was rather a relief, since the entrance was dark and not well marked, shared with two other hotels and a magic show. But once you reach the hotel (on the first floor by European reckoning—there’s an elevator) it’s great. The room had both a table and a desk, with three chairs. The room was impressively quiet.

Hotel Rumor offers a charming stay with a warm welcome upon arrival, even when just dropping off bags before exploring the city. While the hotel isn’t the easiest to find—tucked away on the first floor of a nondescript building—just look out for the white sign. Once inside, the room (Room 4) impressed with its lovely decor, large wardrobe, comfy bed, and clean environment. The amenities were thoughtful, including access to Netflix, a safe (with assistance from the friendly reception staff), coffee-making facilities, and a desk for any work needs. The lighting options allowed for a customizable atmosphere, and the air conditioning was a welcome relief, with no issues leaving it on during the day.
