As advertised, and very central to the bustling Jewish district.

Unfortunately, our stay at Stories Hotel was disappointing. The hotel feels quite dated, and the bed was not very comfortable, which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. We also experienced a significant issue in the bathroom, as there was no running water in the sink and we had to rely on bottled water for basic needs. The only real positive aspect of our stay was the excellent location, which is convenient for exploring the city. However, considering the condition of the property and the issues we encountered, I would recommend looking at other accommodation options in the area.

The whole Stories experience is a vibe! The unique look of each room, the fun reception area with popcorn and treats, most details well thought of! The AC in my room was not working, management were excellent at brining in two portable units and allowed switch the next day when it was determined the repair would take longer. The restaurant/bar fantastic and the location overall cannot be beat; everything is at your fingertips!

Stories hotel is centrally located on the Pest side. Easy walk to public transportation to get to farther destinations. The rooms are comfortable and quiet. The staff is extremely helpful. I would not hesitate to book a room at the Stories Boutique Hotel again.

Property is very clean but very dark. Bed is not very comfortable.

Great location. Cool room. Hip looking place. Generous friendly staff. Gym off site with a daily fee. I will almost certainly stay there again for a short stay. I had a huge suite with an bed on a higher floor. The TV was not particularly smart.

Bathroom smelled bad. A/C not great.

Best location, amazing rooms, the best staff you can ever interact with.

Really nice place. Right near the action. Quiet room. Super helpful staff with coffee and goodies at their station. Nice restaurant downstairs. One thing though, my room has metal stairs to the loft bed. Looked cool, but feels dangerous with short tread steps. Just don’t go down wearing socks. Everything else was spectacular

The complimentary massage was very much appreciated

Unique stay, amazing staff,

Was a very nice stay in one of the Suites. Great location and access to restaurant. Style is a bit dated with a late 70’s minimalist and hostel feel. Room was as pictured, in fact bigger than. My only comment was the bathroom sink, it needs a redesign and it was a mess to even wash one’s hands or brush the teeth. The is one complaint I have, the hotels transportation service, Welcome Pickups, is terrible, we were stuck at the airport on arrival for 45 minutes waiting for a driver that told us to wait outside in the cold. One would expect a person to be waiting for you, not one that has you call when you get there.. they were supposed to monitor the flights… and on the departure, the Welcome Pickups drive left use in the arrival area parking lot where we had to struggle with our luggage and then when we find the departure area upstairs, there is an area in front where taxi’s can drop you off at the entrance… i guess the drivers do not have airport taxi permits.. with this said, if you do not have a bit of luggage, i would consider just booking a cab on arrival or via bolt… so much for attentive transport

Really central to everything, property was great overall, the one downside o would say is it’s quite noisy at night because you are so close to street life. Room was clean, spacious and comfy overall!

The room was amazing, staff really helpful and friendly. 10/10

Coffee and snacks in the lobby

Stories Hotel Budapest is a truly romantic and unforgettable place to stay. The hotel itself is beautifully designed—unique, stylish, and full of character—feeling more like a curated experience than a traditional hotel. Every detail feels intentional, creating a warm, intimate atmosphere that’s perfect for a special getaway. What truly sets Stories apart, though, is the staff. Every interaction was met with genuine kindness, care, and an eagerness to help. They were incredibly accommodating, thoughtful, and attentive without ever feeling intrusive. From recommendations to special requests, nothing felt like too much trouble. It’s rare to find a hotel that combines such distinctive design with such heartfelt hospitality. We left already talking about when we’ll return.

Presidential suite obviously excellent. 26 restaurant lovely but the breakfast was only average with not the biggest selection and a little pricey compared with close buy alternatives. Hotel staff very helpful and friendly.

Excellent staff, the room is nice, clean and very spacious.

We stayed at the presidential suite, which was big, clean, well equipped, the staff was great and helpful.
