Бензур-приятный отель в приятной стране Benzur is a nice hotel in a nice country

I was in Budapest with my wife at the end of May 2011. We stayed for a week in Benzura, in a standard room. I will make a reservation - I am a long-standing tourist, I found Soviet minimalism in its prime and was not used to luxury, therefore I judge from the standpoint of sufficiency. The main thing is to see the country. About the room: neat, without a balcony, TV (ORT present), small refrigerator; the bathroom is combined with a toilet, quite decent size, hair dryer, no safe in the room (I used it for free at the reception). No soap or other bathroom items. Two small armchairs. Towels were changed and trash was taken out. The only inconvenience is that the windows of the room overlook the main entrance of the hotel and the restaurant, for this reason, almost every night, at 3-4 o'clock, I woke up from the screams of walking tourists from Western powers. Compatriots were not heard. About the hotel: breakfasts (buffet) are worthy of praise, for three stars it's just excellent. Lots of pastries, hearty and tasty. The staff is not that rude, but somehow somewhat detached and without a smile refers to the Russian tourist. There was no rudeness. Communicated exclusively in English, they do not know Russian. When leaving, I was unpleasantly surprised by the requirement to pay a tourist tax (about 1 euro per person per day). This collection was not notified in advance. The location is a good, green, quiet area with embassies, near the metro and the park. The air is clean, drinking water from the tap is tasty and safe. I recommend eating from the Turks - two times cheaper than restaurants, varied, tasty, large portions, self-service (without tips). I especially liked the place on the boulevard near the Margaret bridge.
