Pal's Hostel

It doesn't matter that I visited here during the hottest part of the year. Pal's creates it's own energy, great staff and wonderful service. I will return again if given the chance.

You can’t ask for more central location, yet it was peaceful and quiet, day and night.

It was cleaner that most 3-4 star hotels I stayed at. We were given an apartment with private bathroom for the price of a private room with a shared bathroom – a great off-season deal! The place was very spacious, enough to fit five people. It was impeccably clean, had all requisite amenities and stoked with plates and cutlery, enough to fix a simple meal.

There was a small problem with heating but after calling the reception they immediately sent a staff member to fix the thermostat, and the night passed warm and nice.

Relevant only for people with mobility limitations: Tto reach the apartment one has to first check-in at the reception (access through two automated doors, ascend 2nd floor with an elevator) and then walk around the corner and enter through another automated door and ascend 5th floor with an elevator read less

The rooms were lovely (and warm for winter!), with comfy beds, a warm shower and fully stocked kitchen. Pal's is located right next to the Basilica, with bars/restaurants just around the corner and the Danube down the street! You couldn't ask for a better location. Staff is very helpful too. One thing I want to note - I stayed my first night solo and was put in a separate building. I arrived at night, and did not see a single person in that building on any of the floors as I came in - the room was a large apartment with 4 separate rooms and a kitchen & bathroom. As a solo female traveller, I didn't feel 100% safe staying in this building alone, especially since I'd have to go down the street and up the stairs again to reception if I needed help. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend this place for solo travel as I feel safer knowing there are other people nearby. But overall, the benefits outweigh this minor blip and I would stay here again with friends! Thanks Pal for the great time! read less

They try to cram as many people into the space as possible. When you walk into Pal's you instantly recognize that's not part of their philosophy. There's a MASSIVE common room with tall ceilings and open space. There's inspiring art decor on the walls. To top it off, the people working the front are friendly and helpful. I had a package mailed there ahead of my arrival and they kept it safe and had it for me when I arrived 🤗 read less

Booked this with a friend for stay as we’re traveling during the holidays. Better than any hotel or Airbnb! Right in a main square, short walk to many attractions and perfect view of the Christmas markets below. Very impressed, even made Christmas cookies on one of our nights in. Loved the restaurants in the square as well. Overall, clean, inexpensive, prime location and fantastic customer service. Definitely will book again next time in Budapest!!! read less

Good prices, great view from the window of the room. A lot of space in the room. You will be right in the city center. Perfect place, I totally recommend it to all tourists.
