I left Hotel Rila yesterday after my 3 days stay. I was impressed by the location - near to everything, there is a shopping centre just 5 minute walk from the HOTEL, near to the metro station, 4 stops to the heart of the City. I recommend this budget hotel to everyone who is travelling to Budapest.

Small Hotel, quiet near to the Metro Station about 6 min. I like the idea of Hostel Rooms in a 2 star Hotel, they have hostel rooms too, but of Hotel quality. I recommend this Hotel to everybody.

I and my friend we stayed here from Sep 01 until Sep 03, not a bad place for a 2 star Hotel. The place is situted in a quiet area near to the city center about 25 miutes walking distance, or a by metro which takes about 3 min. to center. Tey have nice terrace and they save everything there, beautiful atmosphere. I recommend everybody this small Hotel, especially couples.

August 27, 2009. We actually stayed here for 3 days and to say the truth this place is so nice especially for couples. Cool, green area and not far from the dowtown it is about 20 minute walking distance, good staff and you can enjoy your beer at their cool terrace.

We have just come back from Budapest. The Hotel & Hostel Rila is very clean, has good food and it is well communicated. We want to remark the helpful information from the receptionist "Chila". Our stay there has been very peaceful and pleasant. We are going to recommend this Hostel. Thanks a lot.

Feb 12, 2007 - OK Location. We stayed at the Rila last summer in a family room. The price was ok, inclusive of a basic breakfast. There is a restaurant downstairs that serves nice food. We stayed in a family room, basic furniture but it was clean and quite big. The staff was friendly and showed us the best way to get to the city. As we travelled by car it was great to be able to park our car free on the hotel carpark.

Nov 2, 2006 - "A great little budget hotel" Having seen earlier reviews we were a bit worried about the Rila, but it was great. We had two single rooms for myself and a friend. Very basic - no TV, but freshly decorated and clean with a modern bathroom and large shower. Efficient heating which we needed - it was freezing outside. The reception spoke good English and were very helpful. Breakfast was OK - bread, cereals, scrambled eggs and average coffee. The hotel was in a quiet street and less than 5 minutes walk from the Blue Metro line station and just a few stops to the centre of Budapest. It cost about L25 per night and was a third of the price of any hotel in the centre. If you just want somewhere to sleep without all the trimmings of a luxury hotel then I can thoroughly recommend the Rila for a few days in the lovely city of Budapest.

August 23, 2006. - The hotel was nice and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. A bit of a language barrier at times, but nothing serious. Close to the underground, easy access to city centre.

Nov 4, 2005. I can't really think of much good or bad to say about the Rila Hotel. For a budget traveler, it's fine. The location is ok, and it's pretty quiet. The private bath is nice. I'd stay there again.

Nice place about 15 minutes walk from the centre. rooms nice, great showers, friendly bar restaurant next door, okay for metro and im told shops close by. WARNING - for single guys, if you get chatting to a couple of girls how ever inocent they are, do not go with them to a bar you will receive a massive bill . And if you dont have they will take you back to your hotel for your card. if they do do that , refuse to go back to the bar with then and even call the police. i didnt but found out later theres nothing they can do. However RILA was fine!

Not too much of a party place but a totally recommendable hostel for those looking for an inexpensive, no-nonsense place to sleep. There is a nightbus within a three minute walk running all night and a tram more or less in front of the door. Thanks.

The hotel is only 3 stops on the metro to the centre - about 10mins - very convienent. The staff were very friendly and helpful and there was an option of having breakfast in the morning which was great, evening meal was excellent and cheap-def. Reccomend it!

The hotel Rila is newly renovated and it is spotless. It is not very close to the center, but it is just a few minutes walk to the shores of the Danube, and from there you can walk towards the center and admire the buildings on each side of the river. While visiting Budapest, I would not hesitate to chose this hotel. Also, it comes with a very big breakfast :)

This is a newly renovated hotel with brand new furniture and freshly painted walls that also functions as a hostel. For this reason, it felt more upscale than your average accommodation, but still with hostel rates. Make sure you get good directions ahead of time. I highly recommend it.
