1BR/1BA, AC ♥ Elegant & Bright Suite with a Private Balcony Overlooking Downtown
Experience the charm of historic, aristocratic Budapest by staying in this elegant, spacious apartment designed in a classic style. Ideally situated on the pedestrian-friendly Váci Utca in the 5th district, you'll find an array of bars, restaurants, and souvenir shops just outside your door.
The apartment boasts sophisticated decor and furnishings that enhance the luxurious ambiance. Upon entering, you are welcomed into a spacious hallway that leads to a fully equipped kitchen with a dining area and an opulent bathroom featuring a corner jacuzzi and a custom shower. At the hallway's end lies the main living space, complete with a balcony. This area is thoughtfully divided into a sleeping section with a king-size bed and a generous living area with two sofa beds.
A standout feature is a private balcony overlooking the Historical City Center, perfect for savoring your morning coffee or enjoying a glass of Hungarian wine in the evening while soaking in the unique atmosphere of Old Budapest, truly one of the highlights of your visit to this beautiful city.
This luxurious suite is located on the second floor of a historic building over a century old, ensuring a tranquil environment thanks to its elevated position, soundproof windows, and thick shutters. THE BUILDING HAS AN ELEVATOR.
The apartment is situated in the heart of the city, on Váci Utca, within the Historic City Centre, renowned for its prime pedestrian zone, just 100 meters from the majestic River Danube. This vibrant area is celebrated for its stunning historical architecture, delightful dining establishments, and trendy cafés.
The location is exceptionally central, allowing easy access to various attractions within a short walking distance. Despite its prime position, the apartment is nestled on a quiet side street with limited vehicular traffic. Being on an upper floor, it benefits from soundproof windows and shutters, ensuring a peaceful atmosphere free from noise disturbances.
For those interested in sightseeing, many popular landmarks are within a 2 to 10-minute walk. If nightlife is your preference, you’ll find yourself just on the edge of the lively Jewish district, famous for its bustling nightlife, fantastic bars, and exquisite dining options, all just a 10-minute stroll away.
In conclusion, this location provides rapid access to the River Danube within just 1-2 minutes, allowing you to take in breathtaking views, conveniently reach the Thermal Baths, and experience the vibrant atmosphere of the city.

We stayed here for just under a week. The apartment is perfect, big spacious are and well equipped kitchen. It was also warm and felt very cozy even when it was snowing outside. The location is perfect with nearby shops, bars and restaurants. Tom our host was fab and helped with recommendations on where to go. We will 100% be recommending the apartment to friends and family as we loved our stay here!
Had a fabulous three night stay at this apartment. Fabulous location right in the heart of the city.Our host Tom could not have been more helpful or informative. Detailed instructions for our arrival and ongoing support throughout our stay.Beautiful city with lots to see, Tom guided us on most popular attractions and recommended places to eat.We had lovely time, thank you Tom !!
Excellent, stunning central apartment with a supportive, well informed host. Nothing was too much trouble throughout our stay. we would definitely come and stay again.
This was a great apartment in a perfect location. It was very large and decorated tastefully with the owner’s own art. Building had lots of character which added to Budapest vibe! Owner was super to deal with and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay their again
It was a nice very large apartment. It was very convenient to the Metro (one line straight to train station) as well as grocery stores and restaurants. Kitchen was nice and easy to use.Check in was explained in detail.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely apartment in Budapest. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to all the wonderful restaurants and sights. The furnishings were comfortable and welcoming, and the apartment was spotless when we arrived.Check-in was very easy, and communication with the owner was excellent throughout our stay. We also appreciated the thoughtful touches that made it feel like home especially Tom’s artwork. We also appreciated recommendations for restaurants. A hand bar in the tub/shower area would be a helpful addition, but overall, this is a delightful place to stay when visiting Budapest. Highly recommend!
My friend and I were spending a short time in Budapest and both Tom and the apartment were fantastic - Tom was so sweet and had a huge list of recommendations for food and things to do.The apartment was beautiful and the balcony was perfect for sitting on in the mornings to eat breakfast and look out on the street. I'd definitely book this apartment again the next time I'm in Budapest.
We had an amazing time. The apartment is fabulous and perfectly located for sight seeing. Tom was the perfect host - very communicative. He gave us many tips for places to eat and also organised a private taxi trim the airport and back again. Would totally recommend. Pat & Jonny from Ireland.
Great place to stay . Tom met us at the property to show us around personally. Lovely man. Very friendly. Great location for everything. Highly recommend k and b x
The Budapest apartment was spacious, clean, comfortable, and convenient to transportation & attractions. My wife & I had a great time there. Tom was a very helpful & pro-active host. Great information regarding location, check-in, transportation, and local area prior to arrival. He arranged transportation to/from airport for us as well. He had excellent recommendations for restaurants and things to do. He was also very quick to answer questions during our stay. Highly recommend staying here!
Great location. Spacious.
Comfortable double and sofa beds.
Small basic kitchen.
Most importantly at the heat wave - a great modern air conditioner.
Tom vey helpful.
Downsides? A minor - Window shadowing not good enough for those who want to sleep late.
If you want to stay in Budapest, close to many of the main attractions, but not in a sterile hotel, this listing is the one for you. Lovely one bedroom apartment within walking distance of the Gellert Baths, Central Market Hall, merely two blocks from the Danube ... it's a great location and comes with a balcony overlooking Peres Palne u. Some information that others may leave out ... very close to restaurants lining Vaci u., but if you want to stop at a market, Lidl is only a 5 minute walk away (but this Lidl is very busy and crowded). There are other markets nearby in addition. There are bus and tram stops close by, and the Astoria metro stop is only 5 blocks away. The bedroom is very large, but the kitchen is fairly small. It has a refrigerator but no separate freezer compartment. There is a compact clothes washer but no dryer (we were able to dry our items with the clothes rack.) The apartment is in an older building ... part of the charm. However, the elevator closest to the apartment has its quirks and failed to operate several times. The apartment is on the 4th floor ... labeled the 2nd floor in Hungary. Ground is 0, there's a "half floor," followed by the 1st floor then the 2nd. Fortunately there's another (much more modern) elevator across the courtyard that serves when the old one is having its quirks. Really enjoyable stay in Budapest.
Tomas the host greeted us at arrival and showed us how everything worked. This is a 10 out of 10 property. It is a well cared for unit with a comfortable bed. It has a small balcony for happy hour wine or morning coffee. The location is central to everything. We like to walk and could walk to most things we wanted to see. There is a grocery store located just a few blocks away and so many restaurants located nearby. Would highly recommend staying here for your time in Budapest.

Very nice apartment!! You can walk to the most popular places in 10 minutes. Thomas is very friendly and helpful.
We were very pleased with the apartment. Everything we needed was available at the apartment.
The location couldn’t have been better. Restaurants, public transportation closeness to the Danube River, moreover, everything was right there in an easy walking distance.
Very beautiful, stylish, decorated with flair apartment in the heart of the city. Everything is within walking distance.
We absolutely loved our stay at this apartment and Tomas was a fantastic host, very helpful and attentive. Highly recommend and we will be staying here again on our next trip! Thank you Thomas!
It was such a pleasure staying at this apartment in Budapest. The location was ideal, lots to do and see within walking distance and a train station close by. Many restaurants and bakeries in the area.
The apartment was beautiful and very comfortable for the two of us with everything we needed for a weeks stay.
Tom, our host, was wonderful, arranging transport to and from the airport and giving us recommendations on activities that would be of interest to us. We had a great time in Budapest and enjoyed the accommodation.

We have just got back from four magical days in budapest, staying at this brilliant apartment. The place is fantastic, and Tomas is a very good host who can tell you places to visit. Its location is fantastic, in a beautiful old building with an icecream shop at the bottom. Convenient! Honestly, look no further, this is the place to go.

The original unit was unavailable due to a water leak issue so Tom upgraded us to his other apartment. It was fantastic.

The apartment was exactly what we were looking for! Spacious, clean, fully equipped and easy to get to everywhere. We were met at the door, oriented and given ideas where to eat and what to see and made very welcome. We were a family (2 adults + 2 children). We had a wonderful time in Budapest and this will remain a highlight of our 8 weeks travelling in Europe! Thank you
