Reviews of Danubius Hotel Helia's guests

Good: The cleanliness, the helpful staff, amazing room we were on the 5th floor and the view was spectacular, amazing breakfast and spa facilities! Bad: Nothing

Good: The hotel is really nice in general. The spa is clean and the staff really attentive. Bad: Breakfast was crowded, having to queue for some items. It had the quantity over quality feeling. Having paid extra for a Danube view room, half of the view was towards the apartment building next door.

Good: Everything :) Staff were so friendly, Massage exelent, Pool was relaxing, Food was delicious. Our second stay here, and we are looking forward to our next stay. 5*+ Bad: Our stay was too short 🤔😃🥺

Good: Spa and 4 pools to use in hotel plus sauna Bad: Paying a Service fee no matter were we pleased with service or not Fee was nearly 20 percent

Good: The family friend and warm pools with early opening and late closing times Plus effective steam and sauna rooms. Fantastic coffee. Lovely location with views of the river Danube. Very helpful staff Lovely a la carte room service and tasty food Bad: Nothing. I couldn't fault it if I tried

Good: Well decorated and modern in the reception, foyer etc. It felt as though those areas had all been recently updated. Great breakfast, very helpful and friendly staff. Bad: Rooms were well appointed but felt less modern and slightly "tired"

Good: Clean, efficient, good position.

Good: Everything Bad: Having to leave

Good: We stay at Danubius Helia Hotel each time we travel to Budapest and we appreciate the accomodation, services and location. Nothing to complain about.

Good: Everything Bad: nothing

Walkability: Very good location, metro M3 available on foot. Also Margit island is not so far.

Good: Wellness centre was excellent Bad: Nice new

Hotel highlights: Luxury, Great view, Romantic, Quiet, Great value

Good: Nice hotel with good options for activities: swimming pools, sauna, jacuzzi, gym etc. Parking available in front of the hotel. Subway is close. Option for Danube view. Good breakfast and two options for other meals. Bad: The room could have been cleaned a bit better

Good: Ok. Bad: I think it is not correct to charge 15 eur/day for hotel parking to guests staying

Good: We had a perfect view of river. Breakfast had excellent choice and quality

Danubius Hotel Helia is a solid choice for travelers looking for a relaxing stay with excellent wellness facilities, especially if you're seeking a peaceful location by the Danube. Somewhat closer to Budapest's central attractions.

Good: The hotel is beautiful and we had a great time. The bed is more than comfortable, and breakfast is totally worth it. They have a little bit of everything in it. The staff is friendly, and we also get to enjoy the spa a little bit, which was perfect. Bad: Three things bothered us a bit, but were not enough to spoil our stay. First, the shower kept moving and it was a bit trick to shower, even if the pressure was awesome; second, the AC in the bathroom didn’t hold to the 40° C outside. It was pleasant enough to sleep, but it didn’t get cool as we liked it to be; third, I would say location is great as public transportation arrives just in the corner, however it’s indeed a bit far from the centre, so if you have a short stay, I would recommend you to stay closer to the main attractions to enjoy more of your stay

Good: Good location . Great spa and breakfast was excellent

Good: The breakfast, gym and pool facilities were amazing. Our room was spacious and had fantastic views over the Danube. Bad: The location was a little bit out of the action - but that’s on us for booking. Bus stop wasn’t too far away.

Good: View, facilities Bad: New rooms bathroom is tiny

Good: Very good location,very friendly staff.

Good: Brekfast very good and plenty of option . Staff friendly and proffesional .

Good: The room, the reception and the staff, rich breakfast, relaxing spa, close to everything tourist related

fantastic hotel terrific location

Good: Perfect!!!

Good: The location near the river Bad: Nothing

Good: Our room, 1 bedroom with balcony was very well equipped, includid in-suit gym and a sauna! Beautiful view over the Danube, kitchen and 2 toilets. Breakfast iffered a great variety and the spa was well maintained and fun with kids. Overall a great but short stay, we'll be back! Bad: Nothing

Good: The staff were really friendly and the hotel was spacious. Our room had a good view of the river Bad: Our room was not cleaned for 2 days. We didn’t say anything on the first day but we did the second when we returned from being out. They did offer to clean but it was late. When we mentioned it no explanation was provided or given even though we were told we would be updated. This is the only complaint from our stay.

Good: Very good breakfast ,very good facilities Bad: Room cleaning

Good: A fabulous location, next to Danube River and walking distance from Parliament. The rooms are very comfortable but not very spacious. The breakfast buffet was a high point - one of the best we have experienced in a city hotel. Bad: Not much!

Good: Good breakfast. Spa is spacious and nice with 1 big swimming pool and 2 heated ones. Saunas are separate for men and women. I liked that in many public places you get drinking water with mint and/or lemon. The hotel is few minutes walk from Danube river where some cruises start. Not so close to the main attractions but the river sides offer nice views so the distance will feel shorter. Very friendly and helpful staff. Bad: There is nothing to say against.

Good: Good location. Clean, nice rooms.

Good: We had a one-night stay in the hotel and enjoyed every minute of it. The breakfast was good and staff was friendly and helpful. The pool was great as we could chose between multiple pools, spa, and different temperatures. Bad: The location was quiet away from Budapest main touristic centre, hence we opted for only one night in the hotel. Other than that we could enjoy the hotel ammunities as proposed. Hotel looks little "old" 90's style, but appears well maintained.

Good: The breakfast is excellent.

Good: This hotel is well worth it. Well located, clean and the food( breakfast) was very good. The pool was very ok, clean.

Good: The pool ,the food, the room Bad: None

Good: spa Bad: view and toilete

Good: Top notch quality breakfast. Spa, fitness and sunterass 👍or take a walk on the long beautiful promenade along the Danube. Yellow Bistro&Bar is open all day with good food. 😊 Thank you Hotel Helia!

Good: It was awsome Bad: No issues

Good: The look and feel of the hotel as well as the facilities.

Staff members were fantastic and helpful. Service and the location are excellent as well as the amenities. Highly recommend

Good: Location, breakfast, pools, staff… everything!!

Rooms were great, location was perfect. Breakfast was delicious

Good: Nice pool and big jacuzzi. Breakfast was very good. Many selections. Bad: Staff in the canteen were teenagers they couldn't make an omelette. It took ages and when I got it it was falling apart and soggy.

Good: The free upgraded room was exceptional Bad: The distance it was from the city centre We had to use taxis

Good: I am a returning guest to the hotel. The faces at the front desk are familiar and very helpful. Despite the fact that the hotel was very busy all went very well ! The food is splendid, the facilities are really nice and the room overlooking the Danube and the Margit Island is just beautiful !

Good: facilities were great, dinner option in the hotel was a lifesaver, very friendly people working there

Good: Where good and comfortable hotel

Good: Almost everything. Bad: 2 cleaning ladies entered to my room before the check out time.

Danubius Helia's staff made our stay so enjoyable. They were accommodating and welcoming, too, to our friends' visiting us during our convention. Budapest was unseasonably warm during our stay and we thought the room's HVAC was uncomfortable by American standards. However, our expectations were exceeded in so many other ways at this beautiful facility. The breakfast was abundant and delicious, the amenities were well-maintained, and the Yellow Bistro was top-notch. And, we can't thank you enough for permitting us to entrust our luggage to you after we checked out, so that we could visit Margaret Island before continuing our journey elsewhere. We would highly recommend Danubius Helia to anyone traveling to Budapest! Hotel Highlights: Luxury

Good: greaat breakfast

Good: Spacious and modern . Very peaceful and quiet.

Good: Breakfast was great and lovely variety, provided fruit infused water in reception all day. Swimming pool was lovely and big with 3 different temperature pools. Metro station is about a 5min walk away which takes you anywhere in the city!

Good: Facilities, food, stuff Bad: A little bit far from the center

Everything is superlative. We will come back with great pleasure.

Good: facilities was great, service overall pretty good, room fancy and very clean. Bad: Some equipment in the gym might require to be changed, I had issues with my laundry. I was there in my bed for couple of days and the cleaning staff never picked it up, so I had to go and complaint at the lobby and they asked me that I had to go and personally deliver the clothes to the laundry room. I didn't like that.

Good: I love everything about this place, I've stayed here a few times and will definitely go back again. Very clean, everyone is nice, the food is great. Bad: One thing I don't like, and this is how it is in Hungary in general I believe, is the TV channel selection. When I get to my room in the evening and want to relax there is nothing to watch as everything is dubbed, and I can't even cast from my phone to the TV. But that is a minot flaw, nothing to stop me from coming.

Good: Everything! Especially the view from the balcony. They granted a wish of my own, that they do two swans out of bathroom towels and they did it in a perfect way that exceeded my expectations. My girlfriend was so excited all day long cause she also had a wonderful time at this hotel. Rooms were very comfy and very bright. Bad: 0

Good: the pool and the staff were great. need more sun beds on the area above the pool. i think there are 6... but I love the place

Good: Hotel Helia is fabulous: the room is spotless and comfy, the staff is superfriendly, the food is delicious, the spa & wellness is perfect. When I am in Budapest, I only stay at Danubius Hotels because they are remarkable. Bad: --

All good 👍

Good: The facilities are great; everything was new. Good choice for breakfast. The spa is nice too. Walking distance from the Margit Island. Bad: We were there in the weekend with the Coldplay concert, so the price was inflated. I would happily pay the regular price.

Highly recommend! Stayed there for 2 nights. Everything was more than we expected. The staff extremely helpful, the rooms very clean, newly renovated, beautiful view of the river and the breakfast very good. You have to pay extra 12€/day for parking, wich is a bargain giving the fact that Budapest is an extremely busy town, and also we were told this in advance, so we knew this when we chose the hotel. The staff was specifically clear in everything when we made the booking so we had no surprises. Thank you, Danubius Helia . We will love to visit you again. All the best.

Hotel highlights Luxury Hotel Highlights: Luxury

Good: The food was good. Bad: The food was good but without diversification. the breakfast was the same every day.

Good: Beautiful room great view of Danube staff were exceptional. Bad: Room got very hot could not seem to control air con.

Lovely place. Comfortable and clean. Food was also great. Lovely place for business stays and conference facilities are amazing.

Bad: Refurbished room - twice TV/Elec. issues - service arrived promptly - after control reset all was fine

Good: Great Breakfast, nice spa and nice room. The bed was super comfortable and room very quiet. Despite the localization not so close to the city center, was very easy to use the buses and metro near by the Hotel. We had a lovely stay.

Good: Service level has improved tangibly since my last stay in 2022. Rooms are cleaned daily, breakfasts are quite manifold and staff is highly responsive. Interior looks good after the renovation. Choose renovated rooms, since older versions may leave the feeling of time travel back to the past. Bad: Ask for slippers at reception as they are not placed in rooms.

Good: Location & spacious hotel Spa service included Bad: Nothing I can remember of

Good: Danubius Hotel Helia is a great hotel. It is located by the Danube and has rooms with view over the river. The room was very clean and the breakfast is amazing! We had a newly refurbished room. Hotel staff is very helpful and friendly: helped us with early check-in and also with other requests. I highly recommend this hotel.

Good: Tasty breakfast and dinner, lots of choices... Termal bath with sauna included.

Good: We (2 adults) reserved a Premium Plus Double room with Balcony and Danube view (newly refurbished) The room was spotless, big and well equipped. Pretty much on point with what you see in the photos. Great breakfast and spa facilities. The hotel is within walking distance from, mostly everything of interest if you plan on visiting. - 2 things that really stood out : regular hairdryer in the bathroom and refrigerator at the luggage room in the hotel lobby. both great touches !

Good: Very professional place, good for both conference type of events and for wellness

Good: A wonderfully modern and welcoming hotel, with lots of communal spaces on the ground floor to grab a bite to eat, have a drink, or just sit and relax. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and offered luggage storage for when I arrived too early for check-in. My room was spotlessly clean, very spacious and comfortable, and was appointed with everything I needed for my trip. I had a brilliant view of the Danube and the hotel was in the perfect location for taking a wander along the river or heading into the city centre. Lots of lovely restaurants in close proximity, and the onsite bistro has a great selection on the menu. The breakfast selection was excellent and everything was delicious - something for everybody. Highly recommend - will stay again! Bad: The electricity in my room tripped out in the middle of the night - the staff were extremely attentive though and fixed it within less than 20 minutes. No complaints from me!

Good: Lovely hotel, friendly, helpful staff
