Paprika Museum

Beautifully-appointed hotel in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Andrassi ut, surrounded by some spectacular C19th mansions (many of which are embassies). All modern fittings in my room, for example an excellent shower, and everything worked extremely well. Staff were very helpful and clearly wanted me to enjoy my few days in the city. The hotel is quite a walk from the busier parts of Andrassi ut (which is not a criticism!); the metro line into the city centre is quick and efficient and saves shoe-leather.

I absolutely adore this hotel! From start to finish, my stay was a fantastic experience, and I can confidently say that their breakfast was the best I had during my entire trip. The restaurant staff were truly top-notch—so warm and attentive. On my last day, the breakfast restaurant manager(give her a raise!) noticed how much I loved the traditional Hungarian bread, Pogácsa, and went out of her way to gift me the recipe and even pack a bag for me to take along. That thoughtful gesture completely made my day! Every morning, I couldn’t wait to start my day with their amazing breakfast. And let me tell you about their cappuccino—unlike the usual, uninspired machine-made ones, this was beautifully prepared, rich, and absolutely delicious. I loved it so much I had two cups every morning! The hotel’s location was also great. While it was a bit far from the main train station, I was still able to visit all the major attractions on foot in just one day, which made it super convenient. Their dinner restaurant was pretty good too. Now, for a couple of minor things they could improve: The bathroom layout was a bit odd, even for a solo traveler like me. The shower stall was very small (and I’m quite petite!), and there wasn’t enough space for my skincare and makeup products. Also, whenever I washed my face, water splashed everywhere. Additionally, my room faced the street, and it was a bit too loud for me to fall asleep. Still, highly recommend.

The customer service was amazing, the food was great and the hotel really had a unique experience to offer with the music theme of each room being based on a different musician. All staff were able to converse in English.
