Michelin Guide "An imposing facade hides a classical Hungarian interior with cornicing and rug-covered wooden floors."
Concierge "With excellent public transportation and top-notch pedestrian connections, this hotel... certainly makes a great base."
Fodor's "Rooms in this entirely renovated, early-20th-century building... are decorated in the French Empire style and are both comfortable and plush."
Lonely Planet "Le Meridien’s public areas and its 218 guestrooms spread over seven floors are dripping in brocade and French polished furniture – think royalty over rock star."
Travel + Leisure "Just a five-minute stroll from the Danube, this five-star boutique hotel occupying the 1918 Adria Palace is within shouting distance of Budapest's most iconic sights." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Housed in the centrally-located and tastefully renovated Adria Palace, Le Meridien Budapest is an elegantly furnished hotel, where attention to detail is evident."
Rough Guide "It’s magnificently furnished throughout, with a pronounced French influence manifest in grand sofas, big chests and wall-length mirrors, and beautifully tiled marble bathrooms."
Frommer's "Guest rooms are beautifully appointed with French classical decor in a navy and beige color scheme, luxurious fabrics, and mahogany furniture." Full review
Star Service "The staff here is quick and eager to help. Guests who are more comfortable in smaller properties will be happier here than at the Kempinski." Full review
