Budapest holiday apartment: Budapest Centre

Two couples on a long weekend city break.

Lovely clean apartment in a good location - tram and metro stops very close by, but if you like walking, all the major sites can be reached on foot - though you'll probably use public transport for the return journey. Very well equipped if you want to do your own cooking - we just used the corkscrew and wine glasses! Owners are easy to deal with and very friendly.

The market, which is practically next door, provided us with fresh pastries for breakfast at amazingly low prices. And it's also a good place to pick up unusual souvenirs or exotic foods - paprika especially.

Recommended.

STAY HERE!!!!!! In the heart of Budapest, a wonderfully elegant and extremely well-appointed apartment with large expansive rooms, crown molding, high ceilings, and beautiful details in the sunny,huge living room, well stocked new kitchen, extremely clean bathrooms (one with with a washer-dryer). Bedrooms were large, cheery, well lit...We loved our stay here -- warmly welcomed by a friendly family member and a great bottle of wine, great music cd collection, information on local travel -- it was a so much of heaven! We almost hated to leave the apartment to tour the city, it was such a GREAT place! I cannot recommend this place highly enough!
It is very near the Old Market, (about one city block) which is beautiful and fascinating and a must-see - you can get your morning pastries and fresh bread, fruit, etc. It is also near Gellert Baths and other bath houses, the Gellert Hill, the rock cave church, and just about every other great attraction in Budapest.
The owner was extremely accommodating -- we had to change out reservation at the last minute and they were very good and pleasant to work with. This place will give you the best travel memories of Budapest -- it was a remarkable place! The one thing that I can say is that you must be able to climb a couple of flights of stairs in order to stay here -- there is no elevator. I traveled with my 86 y/o father, who was in very good condition and he had no trouble...

The appartment is very comfortable, with contemporary furniture and decoration, and even a piano. It is very spacious and hosted 4 teen-agers and one adult.The appartment is very well situated, near the Danube river and the Central Market, which is an attraction by itself.
In many years of renting vacation places around the world, this is the best location we ever got. In addition, the hosts are extremely nice people. They called us on the phone from abroad shortly after we arrived to ensure that everything was OK. They were extremely helpful, reserved taxis for us from and to the airport and recommended restaurants and other places on our request. Even after our departure, they continued to help us, as I was looking for the contact of a store that I had seen near the apartment.
In addition, this appartment is in the same building as several others rented by the same owners, which can be very convenient for a large family vacation (which was our situation).
I have extremely nice memories of our stay there and would recommend it to anybody who wants to visit Budapest.
