Boat Hotel Fortuna

The hotel was lovely. It was the first time staying on a boat and I was pleasantly surprised with the whole experience. The interior was lovely, with an elegant vibe. Our room was small but cosy with a large comfortable bed, TV, wet room style bathroom and plenty of closet space. The restaurant was beautiful and clean. We had breakfast and dinner during our stay and the food was great. All the staff were very welcoming. They have a 24 hour reception and were always happy to help with our needs such as hair dryer, iron and even ice for drinks we bought outside. The location was good, with roughly 10 min walk to Budapest Parliament building and many nice restaurants within a 5 min walk. All other major attractions are within walking distance too obviously just a little further as some on the other side of the river but I was happy with our location due to being staying on the famous River Danube. The view from the boats viewing level was lovely too. I’d definitely recommend staying at Fortuna for your stay, as I will be when I return in the summer.

Nothing major or that wasn’t manageable but if I had to say anything it would be that I didn’t like having to keep the curtains closed majority of the times for privacy away from people walking directly outside of the window when walking on the outside decks. We kept the curtains closed majority of the time, unless I was doing my make up, which was fine as there was a lot of lighting in the room. And I’d recommend bringing a device to watch movies on as only English channels I could find on the TV were two music stations.

Staff were helpful friendly professional. The breakfast guy so attentive and polite.Our room was cosy and warm despite the cold weather outside.The location was central and convenient so we could walk to many of the places we wanted to visit.

Nice experience.

Very good location and friendly staff, recommend the restaurant.
