Very nice hostel, clean, cool and very helpful staff, located in a good area. It's inside an old beautiful building, and the hostel has a lovely balcony with a great view. And I just LOVE Budapest. I'll definitely go back.

Quiet enough that you'll get a good night's sleep (provided, that is, that you... More

The Groove is one of the best hostels I've stayed at. It is not the biggest or the flashest, but it is so homely, friendly and lovely we almost didn't want to leave.

The studios are a lot more than a hostel, but they are still at a very good price. They are nice and cozy, the location is great, the stuff is awesome, the people who go there are awesome... Please say hi to Panna, if you get there. She's the cutest "receptionist" eveeeeeeer!!!

By far the nicest and most helpful staff I've ever met. The hostel is very homey! It is a flat turned into a hostel with the most beautiful balcony/view! The rooms and showers are very clean--we stayed in a 6-bedroom dorm. It was fairly quiet during the nights we stayed but we were there during off-season. But what made this... More
