Fodor's Review:

It doesn't get much better than this: a centrally located, super-deluxe hotel in a museum-quality landmark with the prettiest views in town. No detail has been spared in restoring this stunning 1906 Art Nouveau palace to its original majesty: delicate wrought-iron vents in the hallways, exquisite gold mosaic tiles on the facade, stained-glass windows, and cupolas. Three magnificent stairwells are so grand that you may not want to use the elevators. Rooms, some with balconies and vaulted ceilings, are similarly large and plush. Spanish-marble bathrooms—unlike any in Budapest—have both showers and deep soaking tubs. The lobby café is modeled after the building's original. Taxes are not included.

Reviewed by beauxmondes from Sacramento, California on 6/29/07
The hotel lobby and public areas were indeed beautiful capturing the art nouveau period. However, the rooms were a big disappointment. Our first room was extremely small with no frills. Simply 4 stark white walls with no mouldings or ornamention of any sort. We decided to upgrade to a much bigger room with a view of the chain bridge diretly in front of us. Unfortunately, the upgraded room had the same look but only bigger. The small refrigerator was simply placed on a table with snacks sitting on top. The nightly bed turn down service was nothing like the Four Season's in Paris or San Francisco. It was our very first time visiting Budapest. All we can remember from this trip is our disappointment with the hotel room at the Four Seasons. The front staff were very and friendly accomodating which was a plus. However, it's hard to be forgiving when you pay $975.00 U.S. dollars(low season too) a night for a room only to be welcomed with bright stark white walls and no decoration as though you were in a motel.
