This is not up to the standards of a Ritz Carlton hotel at all. From the moment we walked in our room was not ready. It took over 1.5 hours to get our luggage brought to the room. After waiting long for our luggage I asked for another luggage rack for the room and it never came. There were no pleasantries from the staff. We came from Ritz Carlton Berlin which was the polar opposite. We were offered drinks and Christmas treats. There was nothing in Budapest. The breakfast was mediocre at best. No one smiled. While I had a very nice massage from Vera in the spa the spa was tiny and offered very little. Children were also allowed in and it was noisy. Not what you want to hear while you are trying to relax One of the biggest issues for me was the noise. We were backing on to the fashion street it was where the garbage is picked up. Loud at 6am every morning. We paid for a 5 star hotel and this was a 3.5 at best. We were really disappointed.

Total discrimination!
Location is great, however, you would be severely discriminated if you booked through a third party. I decided to book a long stay through Hotels.com, as the promo code was not working, i booked 3 nights instead of 4. Upon arrival, i requested they honor the long stay. To my surprise, this turned into a 3 day back and forth. Expedia called and emailed to try to resolve the issue, they refused to answer them. Furthermore, at check-in a lady next to me was kindly asked to register as a bonvoy member in order to be provided free breakfast. Upon hearing that, i requested to provide my number as well. I was shocked when i was told that they weren't going to give me free breakfast and i could only qualify for 20% off. So all guests are not treaded the same. Some are politely encouraged to get free items, others are denied services or promotions cause they're a third class guest. They also refused to give me any rebate for my 4th night and requested i pay the full price! I went to Kempiski hotel, was extremely surprised they recognized and honored my Expedia membership. They went as far as upgrading me to a new room. There's therefore no reason why the Ritz decided to discriminate me, if Kempiski can upgrade me. I doubt it has anything to do with booking through a 3rd party like they claimed. It was definitely racial and i will never be going back.

I had a wonderful two day stay in the hotel. The location is perfect and service was impeccable. The hotel is true to its brand. They reached out to me ahead of time to arrange transportation, and again upon departure, which was very appreciated as it was my first visit to Budapest and I was unfamiliar with transportation options. I highly recommend and would love to visit again.

There were problems with our prearranged tour. We had to wait to find another tour guide. I felt we were an after thought about it. The tour guide seems like he had just rolled out of bed. Concierge made us reservations at a local restaurant. They tried to seat us in the worst table in the restaurant in the middle of the crowd waiting by the front door. I refused to sit there. I would think if you were sent as a guest of the hotel you should have been given a better table and not be put in this situation.
