This place with the friendly name is certainly a cut above the rest.
Pal's Hostel is not a regular hostel but a chain of apartments around St Stephen’s Square. We offer dorm beds and private rooms as well as complete apartments. You can find our reception and lobby in the middle of them. There you can meet up with fellow travellers, store bags, use our guest computers or just adore the view on the Basilica from the Balcony :) All accommodations at Pal's Hostel have free WIFI and access to a fully equipped kitchen.

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

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 lessStayed there a couple years back. Service was good and very cheap for what we got, which was a huge apartment.

Service was good and very cheap for what we got, which was a huge apartment. Did not use most of the services the hostel offered because our location was across form the Basilica. Only trip was that there was no where to deposit our key after we had to leave early in the morning for our flight. 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
