Flat in Belváros-Lipótváros
Sightsee from the Window of a Classical Apartment
This gorgeous, 50 sqm luxury apartment is located right in the very heart of Budapest, on the city's most central square, Kossuth Lajos Square. Overlooking the iconic and world famous Parliament building, this wonderful retreat offers a fantastic and relaxing time in Budapest for short or mid-term stays. The apartment is situated on the 2nd floor of one of Budapest's most beautiful classical buildings built on the turn of the century by the National Mining Company (you can still see the hammers symbolizing mining on some the original cast iron works decorating the impressive main entrance doors). An incredible, winding set of stairs lead up to the apartment, but of course there is also a modern elevator. The apartment itself has been very recently and fully renovated, with new heat and sound insulating doors leading to the balcony, hardwood floors in the living room and the bedroom, marble and granite floors and tiles in the entry hall and the bathroom. New and custom made furnishing, arranged in a modern and tasteful way. The kitchen is fully equipped with quality appliances, nespresso coffe machine, microwave, toaster, electric kettle, etc. We provide the basic amenities, tea, coffee, milk creamer, mineral water, etc. The bathroom has a large, comfortable bathtub. Blowdryer, and basic bathroom toiletries are provided. The living room features a cozy sofa bed, facing a large LCD television with installed Apple TV, DVD player, surround system and fast wireless internet connection. Large bookshelf filled with DVDs, all kinds of books You can also find an alarm clock and a BOSE iPhone dock sound system in the apartment. The bedroom has a premuim, queen sized bed and mattress with extra pillows and duvets. Large wardobe to easily and comfortably unpack from those suitcases. Top-quality sheets and different size towels are also provided. A separate utility room accomodates the washer and a tumbler dryer. The apartment can comfortably accommodate 4 people, there’s a double bed in the bedroom and a comfortable sofa bed in the living room, the bedroom can be fully separated. Shutters can fully black out both the living room and the bedroom. The apartment also features an alarm, security doors and a brand new air-conditioning system. I like to greet guests personally, show them around the apartment and perhaps give you a few tips about supermarkets, restaurants, wine bars, etc. I live about 10 minutes away from the flat so if you run into any trouble or need any kind of help, I'm always available on my mobile phone. I use whatsapp, viber, telegram, iMessage to make communication easier. Located in the city's banking district, the neighborhood is an ideal mix of alive by day and quiet at night. Take a short walk to find a different side of the area, where cafes, restaurants and bars abound, and it's easy to have a good night out. Very close to all kinds of public transportation (tram lines 2 and 4-6, metro lines 2 and 3, several bus lines), but everything you'd need is in walking distance.

Your guide to Budapest

Welcome to Budapest

Irresistible romance and fin-de-siècle flights of fancy: These are the hallmarks of Budapest’s mesmeric beauty. Its historical legacy ornaments either side of the Danube, linked by four elegant and beautifully illuminated bridges. To the west, the hilltop Buda Castle looks down over the medieval quarter; and to the east, the domed Parliament building fringes the Pest riverbank. You can’t help but marvel at the tremendous range of the city’s 19th-century architecture, from the Renaissance-style opera house and the Moorish Revival synagogue to the Neoclassical basilica of St Stephen and the Romanesque Fisherman’s Bastion.

And when you’re done, there’s no better place to relax than at one of Budapest’s many thermal baths. More than 100 springs bubble from beneath these streets. For a taste of the vibrant local life (not to mention exquisite cuisine), check out the three-story Great Market Hall, or the romkocsmák (or ruin pubs) that pop up in abandoned buildings.


The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Budapest

Budapest is at its best in summer, when the sunshine and warm temperatures encourage everyone into the city’s beer gardens (kertek). The months of June to August are crammed with outdoor events and performances, from the traditional St Stephen’s Day celebrations to the Sziget Festival, which takes place on an island in the middle of the river. The bright but crisper days of spring and autumn can be a good time to enjoy the sights with a bit more breathing room; many kertek open from March or April, which is also the time of the two-week Budapest Spring Festival. Ultimately, this lively city has plenty happening all year, and while things do get quieter in winter — when the snow falls and the cold really settles in — its white Christmases can be a magical draw.


Top things to do in Budapest

Gellért Hill

Getting less attention than Castle Hill, this 771-foot-high lump of dolomite is a fantastic viewing spot and boasts its own historic landmarks, including the Citadella, a mid-19th-century fortress, and the Liberty Monument. Wander south and you’ll find Bartók Béla út, the student neighbourhood and increasingly trendy hangout.

Margaret Island

This island retreat, 1.5 miles end to end, is reached by the Árpád and Margaret bridges. It’s dotted with beautiful gardens and quirky attractions, including 13th-century church ruins, an Art Nouveau water tower, and adventure pools.

Kőbánya cellars

You’ll need a guide to explore the extraordinary subterranean system of tunnels beneath the city’s 10th district. They have been here since the Middle Ages, when limestone was quarried to build the city. The deep white-walled caverns have also served as wine cellars and breweries through the ages, before aircraft engines were built here during World War II.
