MGZN Basilica Rooms

Fantastic location, quite a basic room, but good amenities, can’t really complain for location and price. Only thing to be wary is that the breakfast was a 10 minute walk away, in the opposite direction to most attractions. Host was nice and available at check in to support with keyless system. Apartment is located in a very dingy building but once you are in the room it is nice enough.

Stay was great, checkin experience was not ideal as the open door app was not working.

Clean small room in an excellent location. Getting in when the 'door open' app was not working was an ordeal as it took a while to get someone on the phone. Checkin was 3pm, not 2 pm as mentioned on the site.

We booked this hotel due to its proximity to St Stephens Basilica. We ended up staying at their other property (air bnb) that's 10 minutes away and we were not informed until we were about to check in. There was no transparency until the last minute and we were left with no choice. Air bnb property was not clean and there were no toiletries and not enough towels. Would have rated zero star if not not for the breakfast.

The pictures

Was locked out when I came back in the evening as my phone battery had died. I was given a key card for my room but the door to the hotel was locked behind a keypad. No hot water in the morning so had to have a cold shower,

Perfect place for a three days stay in the middle if the city. Walking distance to a lot of attractions and activities, combined with great transportation options. Highly recommended.

Listing for this hotel was misleading & if it wasn’t race weekend then I would have left and found somewhere else to stay.

I never received a single email from the hotel & I am guessing they have it wrong. The check in process was a nightmare. Claiming it’s a hotel is a stretch. It’s more like a bad Airbnb. They asked me to leave the money for the city tax in my room! I am willing to pay the tax, but not by just leaving the money unattended. The room was dirty & poorly maintained, paint was peeling off the wall. No idea where the breakfast was served. The stairs to the 2nd floor were very poorly lit. Wasn’t offered housekeeping until after my 4th night. This was the worst hotel experience of the past 20 years & certainly feel entitled to a partial refund.

Great location, very convenient and walkable. Good if you just want a place to sleep. Getting there is a bit complicated, especially after hours. Rooms are nothing fancy, and not the cleanest. Dark hallways. Bed and linen/pillows weren’t the comfiest.

Gorgeous quirky stay, very spacious room. Staff was friendly and location was amazing would stay again. Was spotlessly clean and beds where very comfortable.

Location is absolutely fantastic. Centrally located in a lovely location. I had the basic room with no view of the basilica but I was out the whole time so not important. I’m sure the rooms with views would be stunning. Clean rooms freshly decorated. Lovely girl on reception recommend a local restaurant to me which was amazing. Thank you and see you next time I’m in Budapest.

The location was excellent for this property, but it is not quite the hotel you are expecting. The property is located beside St Stephen’s Church and is on top of all the major places to visit but the hotel is more like a concept, they are semi-modernised rooms inside a run down building where the lift (which is akin to something out of the shining) only holds 3 people and if you opt to walk up the stairs, at night it’s a little worrying as the lights don't automatically come on and you are walking in the dark. Reception is only open until 8pm and then is unmanned, there are no phones are in the room if needed. No extra pillows were given when asked for as they had none to give, but did however have extra blankets. It’s a little like a hostel, definitely not what I was expecting. Only provided one coffee each for one day in the room and the kettle was dangerous as didn’t switch off, but clean. Would not stay here again and should be no more than 2 stars.

Apartments “mixed” into the building the hotel is located. In common areas, constant strong smell of trash. Convenience and views are the only redeeming part of staying here

Excellent location. The staff were super helpful. We had a couple issues with the plumbing, but they were on it very quickly.

Location, location, location. No thrills, but very reasonably priced.

Great location and good value for money. A little noisy in the evenings and mornings but I would expect that for the central location. The shower could do with a curtain or screen as it was difficult to shower standing up without soaking the whole bathroom! Nice big room and lovely views of the church.

It was near many restaurants, attractions, & shops which was very convenient. The elevator has a very small capacity but staff were very helpful.

Had a great stay here for a few days we landed late and were able to get the key from a secure box. Perfect location central to everything and staff were very helpful

The staff and service at this property were wonderful. They were warm and welcoming and eager to help. The location was amazing with a beautiful view of St Stephen’s out the window. However, the bathroom was a very difficult situation. The drain in the shower ran extremely slowly - even with the water just trickling out, the shower drain couldn’t keep up. My daughters and I took extremely short showers so the water wouldn’t pool, and even still we couldn’t run enough water to wash our hair. There was also a drain in the middle of the bathroom floor that had a broken cover - so essentially there was a treacherous hole in the middle of the floor. But the worst issue by far was a terrible odor that was present in the bathroom. It was sometimes very strong and sometimes almost undetectable, but it made for a very unpleasant bathroom experience. Overall, other than the bathroom issues, we would have been extremely happy as everything else was great!
