Grand Jules for the F1 Hungarian Grand Prix 2024
Travelled on 07/2024

Room was clean and beds, although quite small, were comfortable and room was serviced every day with fresh towels.
I was slightly worried about th...

great view but overheated rooms

I received a request to evaluate my stay at the hotel on a boat. The atmosphere at the hotel was very nice, breakfast was okay. The view from the hotel restaurant of the parliament was great. Very easy to get from the airport. Unfortunately, what completely ruined the charm of this place for me was the non-functioning air conditioning. The cabin got very hot, by the end of the day it was unbearable to breathe. This m...
