Jászberény accommodation from AU$122

We arrived late (after midnight) after a 700km journey. The receptionist was Hungarian speaking but learning English (in her own time) and so made an extra effort in communicating with us. She facilitated a hot drink in the foyer area for us, (despite the restaurant being closed) while we went through the check-in process. She was really helpful and friendly which was really appreciated after such a long journey and chatted with us while we relaxed on the comfy sofas before retiring to our room. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable with air conditioning which was GREATLY appreciated as temperatures were 28oC! The breakfast was very limited but this was in part due to us being gluten free (coeliacs disease) which was a shame but you can’t have it all I guess.

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I loved the small intimate feel of the hotel itself. The outdoor spaces were nice and comfortable with different options to choose from. We had a great fresh breakfast every morning to start our day. We would definitely stay again.

Pros: The property is close to the centre of Màtrafüred, where the restaurants are, and it is also close to the hiking trails. It has a pool (though it is a bit dated) a kitchen and dining area for guests to use, as well as a sauna and a nice back garden in the woods. Staff were extremely helpful and accommodating and the room was clean. Cons: The property is right next to the main road, so if you have a room that faces that side, it is very noisy. I could hear the traffic even through my earplugs. It was very umpleasant as i was expecting a nice peaceful stay in Màtra. The rooms have soundproofed doors, but the walls are very thin. I could even hear my neighbours talking! My (double) room had a tiny bathroom, i don't think a larger person would have been able to move around in it or even sit on the toilet properly. The reception was not always manned, so guests had to call to get someone over to check them in, open the pool, etc etc.
