Hotel Orion is a little gem (only about 35 rooms) in a beautiful city. It has a superb position - just one street back from the river on the Buda side, a short walk from the Elizabeth Bridge and at the foot of the Castle District. The staff are all friendly and helpful, the beds are comfy and the buffet... more

I stay in 4 star hotels all the time for work, this was a leisure trip. This hotel is a good location, just the other side of the river from the luxury hotels such as Intercontinental. Easy to get around - you can walk to all the main attractions. Get an Airport Minibus from the airport for 10 Euros each... more

This hotel was clean and quiet, and had plenty of room. Breakfast was good, and the staff was very nice and helpful. The walk into the center of Budapest is 15 minutes or so, so this hotel makes sense if you don't mind walking. more

My wife and I spent four nights in Hotel Orion at the end of February fully expecting a basic hotel and to need our winter woolies. We needn't have worried on either score. The hotel staff were welcoming, the room clean and equipped with everything we might expect and the breakfast, especially the eggs cooked to order, set us up... more

Hotel? lovely. clean, beds made daily, CNN, minibar not extortionate and a hairdryer in the bathroom- how posh lol. Breakfast was really good and there's a fab restaurant a spit away (out the doors turn left for about 20 paces- its on the left- the house white is lovely and not many HUFs). The only complaint was it was quite... more

The room was very clean and comfortable and overall we had a very nice stay. Staff were helpful in booking taxis and answering quick questions about using the phone. The breakfast was served until 10 and you could get eggs fresh cooked the way you order them. The only drawback is the location. Although it is a very short walk... more

Besides the fantastic central location the best thing about this hotel was the desk staff. The rooom was good the food was good, but having a wealth of friendly knowledge at the front desk was priceless. No matter who was working, they were always accomodating, helpful and willing to give advice to my friend and I. That is what sets... more

Nice and clean hotel within reasonable distance of most sites. No metro within 500 metres, but plenty of trams if you wish to avoid 10 minute walk into centre. Very helpful staff. We booked a twin room that cost just £100 in total for three nights including breakfast. We used airport shuttle, which was fast and reasonable priced at 2300HF... more

The Hotel Orion is spotlessly clean. I had a decent sized room and there was a nice choice of breakfast dishes including hot food cooked to order. The staff were helpful & knowledgable. It was conveniently located for all of Budapest's attractions and the area seemed safe. I paid £27 a night for 4 nights in December - out of... more
