Danubius Hotel Helia

Overall, we had a very pleasant stay at Danubius Hotel Helia. The lobby and reception area are beautifully designed and create a great first impression. The hotel was very clean throughout, and the food was excellent. We stayed in a Junior Suite. While it was comfortable and very clean, it was smaller than we expected for this room category. The view from the room was also very limited, with only a partial view. The pool area was enjoyable, although the outdoor area could use some improvement. During our stay, only three pools were available, while the main large pool was closed for renovation. This was a little disappointing, as the pool facilities were one of the reasons we chose the hotel. The food at the restaurant was very good, but the service could be more attentive.

Wonderful stay with beautiful Danube views ❤️ We’ve just come back from our holiday and absolutely loved every minute of our stay at Danubius Hotel Helia.

We had lovely, restful sleeps and waking up to the river and Margaret Island view was such a treat. Watching the sunset from the room in the evening was equally lovely. The daily housekeeping was excellent, and breakfast offered a great variety of both hot and cold options, with plenty of choice throughout our stay. The staff were also consistently polite, friendly and helpful. The only downside was that the swimming pool was being renovated during our visit. However, the hotel kindly offered free access to their sister hotel, Ensana Thermal Margaret Island, which was a lovely alternative. The rooftop outdoor pool was perfect in the summer heat, and the indoor thermal baths and sauna were fantastic. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would happily recommend the Helia. Personally, because of the larger s

Loved this hotel. Rooms were great - decent size and incredibly clean (premium balcony with river view). Swimming pools were fantastic - there different pools at different temperatures. Lovely lobby with comfortable seats and a nice outdoor seating area. Breakfast was reliable - hot cooked items (bacon, sausage, egg, beans, etc), cold meats and cheese, breads and pastries and more. We had travel cards for getting around - bus stop outside by the Prima store (also helpful to have nearby) and a 10 minute walk to the metro m3 line.
