"After opening in 1991, owner Károly Szombati has accumulated 73 apartments in a group of buildings in a less-than-eye-appealing Buda-side neighborhood." Full review
"Rooms on the quiet side of the building do not suffer from traffic noise in the morning. The hotel’s restaurant is very good, and breakfast is a real treat."
"On the hill up from the Erzsébet híd on the main road to Vienna, this friendly apartment hotel was one of the first of its kind in the city."
"The Charles has 70 ‘studios’... with tiny kitchens and weary-looking furniture as well as two-room apartments." Full review

Upscale
"The 80 contemporary guest rooms have flat-screen TVs, minibars, and free Wi-Fi, but bathrooms are small -- though Lanvin toiletries and plush robes and slippers are a nice touch." Full review
"Modern design has brightened up this classic hotel, which is located at Blaha Lujza tér, a busy transportation hub, and just steps from the city's coolest neighborhoods" Full review
