My stay at Hotel President was riddled with issues that overshadowed its potential charm. While the hotel's location was convenient for exploring Budapest, the dated decor and lack of basic amenities really let it down. The enthusiastic staff did what they could to assist, but the overall experience was far from satisfactory, especially considering the price.

I had a faultless stay at Hotel President. the staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming. The buffet breakfast offered a vast variety of both hot and cold options, which I truly enjoyed. However, I did hear some concerns about air conditioning issues in certain rooms, which I thankfully didn't experience. Overall, the central location made exploring Budapest quite convenient.

The wellness facilities were closed for my stay, which was disappointing, especially since the pool was prominently featured in the hotel’s promotional material. Other amenities seemed underdeveloped.

My stay at Hotel President was a mix of positives and disappointments. The location was unbeatable, allowing me to explore key attractions with ease. However, the wellness facilities left much to be desired, as the pool was empty and only one sauna was operational. I appreciated the friendly staff and the generous breakfast, but the cleanliness and comfort of my room could have been better. Overall, while I enjoyed my time in Budapest, I might consider a different option for my next visit. 🏨🌆

The wellness area needs improvement. The pool was out of order, and the whirlpool wasn't functioning properly either. I enjoyed the rooftop terrace but wished the other facilities matched its charm.

My stay at Hotel President had its ups and downs. The location was excellent, making it super easy to explore Budapest, and the breakfast spread was generous and tasty. However, I faced some major hiccups with the room's air conditioning and the overall service, which was often frustrating. Overall, it was a mixed experience.

The room I first got was super tiny, like an oven with no good air conditioning and no door on the shower. I had to ask to be moved twice before finding one with proper AC, but I still had to wait a while without a room in between.

Breakfast was really great with lots of options, but the dining area was a bit stuffy and felt cramped at times, almost like being in a basement. I wish it had a better vibe.

The spa was nice enough, but I found it a bit of a hassle going back and forth for services like locker keys and bathrobes, as nothing seemed to be easily accessible.
