Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Mercure Budapest Korona enjoys a very central location, convenient for accessing the city, with bus and tram stops right across the street including the airport bus. Many guests appreciate the clean, modern rooms, some of which offer city and park views, complete with amenities like a safe and fridge. The bar is a popular spot, and the breakfast on the first floor is considered very good. While some have found the choice at breakfast not surprising, many enjoyed the experience. The hotel's reception area also makes a great first impression because it smells like heaven.
