Continental Hotel Budapest
Hotel is very nice. Staff friendly and rooms spotless. Upgraded on arrival to junior suite with great balcony. Only downside was the pools were being refurbished so unable to use which wasn’t advertised when booking.

Budapest Marriott Hotel
The room was "as pictured" and nice. I still dislike (seems to be a European thing) of having only a portion of the shower (no bathtub - which is fine) covered by a glass partition. As a result, expect some water to splash across the floor. The hotel does have a great view of the river and Buda.
