Worried on the way to the room, but acceptable
The room was clean and fine for an overnight stay for my family. Walking to our room, we saw that the carpets in the hallway were filthy and were concerned that the room would be the same. The room was acceptable.

The Star Hotel had a certain 'twinkle'
I and a friend had an enjoyable 5-night stay. We found all staff (front of house, catering and cleaning) to be friendly and attentive. When i had a little issue with my room, reception had no hesitation in moving me once availability allowed. Was pleased to have both a working safe and fridge in the room along with other comforts you would expect from a good, 3-star hotel. All areas of the hotel were clean and tidy and the breakfast, although possibly a little repetitive, was both abundant and tasty.

Ok in general
The room is corresponding to the photos. It is standard and quite clean and spacious. The breakfast was really poor, it was obvious they tried to make economy on a single things there.

Hotel and room were clean. Location was ok, about 10mins walk to metro and close to the city park. Breakfast was continental so that was ok. Staff helpful and friendly. I'd say overall good for the price.

Location is great, about a 15-20 minute bus ride into the city and popular tourist attractions. Staff were helpful, printed out my boarding pass, and helped with directions. Thats where the pros end. On my booking I asked for 1 double bed, as I was traveling alone. When I checked in, I was given a room with 3 twin beds. When asked to make a change staff said that roooms were full, despite me booking a room with 1 bed. Staff said would have to ask hosekeeping to push twin beds together . Housekeeping did not do that until 2nd night of stay. Still did not sleep in the bed, as huge crack in the middle. Housekeeping is very loud in the mornings, so you ca not sleep in. Hotel. should be ahshamed of breakfast. It is the same food everyday, just 2 options, eggs and sausage, plus whatver bread they have out!! Once I went down 30min before breakfast ended and there was no food, and no one was refilling it. Bathroom is small, no amentities like tea, cofee, or water. I would never stay here again. Okay for one night. But really uncomfotarble, old, and shabby.

Decent
Decent stay here as part of a stag party. Value for money, comfort is ok but not great, but that was just mainly due to the pillows provided. I’m sure if we complained they’d have given us more but we didn’t want to hassle them as they were really nice, and we were too drunk or sitting on the toilet most of the time to string up a conversation about it. Missed breakfast every morning, so can’t review that, although one of the lads said it was decent. It’s about 4000-5000 HUF for a taxi home from the ruin bars, half that if you want a violent argument with the driver, and times that by about 10 if you’re too drunk to count your own money. The city is generally cheap if you keep your wits about you and don’t ignore your internal warning signs when you’re out and about. The people are friendly, but there are also a lot of groups hanging about here and there looking to rip you off if you’re not careful. Was offered drugs and women nearly every 5 minutes, but lucky for me I decided years ago that both of these do my nut in. Visit Cofea Arabica (turn right out the hotel, second left - 100m on your right). 10 of us hammered pints there for 7 hours and the bill was only £150, and we all agreed the waitress has the best arse within our solar system.

Rooms allocated were below standard however on discussing this with vivienne she very quickly ensured apprpriate room was made available. The lower level of the hotel was very modern and appealing however the carpets upstairs were marked which made them look dirty. Breakfast excellent, just a pity they did not offer dinner or snacks.
