Wonderful place in a perfect location

We stayed at the property during a short 5 day vacation with the family. The place was a great size for our family of 4. The proximity to everything that Budapest has to offer was ideal. We were able to walk anywhere, and if we felt like not walking, then we hopped on the light rail or metro within 2 blocks. The host was great and we really enjoyed our time. Thanks for a great vacation.

Beautiful apartment

Beautiful apartment, close to everything. Excellent communication with host Viktor who even picked us up from the train station. Comfortable beds. Kitchen is huge although we didn’t really have the time to cook meals other than breakfast. One of the most beautiful VRBOs we have rented.

Great Apartment

This apartment is as amazing and spacious as all the other reviewers have described. The location is close to everything. We were able to walk to Parliament, the metro, the 2 tram, the river cruise, Andrassy, everything. Viktor met us at the apartment for checkin. You ring the downstairs bell and walk up two flights and he greets you at the apartment. Checkout was easy. He met us at 6:50am so we could return the keys. And he arranged for our airport taxi so we could get there on time. The air conditioning was a benefit because we were in Budapest during a week when the temperatures were in the mid-90s (F) each day.

Komfort im Herzen von Budapest

Komfortabler Aufenthalt mitten in Budapest. Beste Wahl für einen 3 tägigen Städtetrip. Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Appartement, ausgestattet mit allem was man braucht. Die Klimaanlage braucht man aber auch bei 31 grad Stadthitze, weil man die Fenster nachts wegen des Großstadtlärms nicht offen lassen kann. Lage top. Alles fußläufig erreichbar. Restaurants und Aldi in der Nähe gewährleisten eine sehr gute Selbstverpflegung. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder.

Pictures are correct and the apartment is as beautiful as described and fully equipped. Very central location which also includes a busy street in front of the house. But with windows closed and a well working air condition this is not a problem. Viktor is reliable and always helpful. Thx

Lovely apartment

Great apartment with everything we needed, very clean. Viktor the manager was very responsive to any questions before we arrived. We had to cancel in 2020 & 2021 due to covid, so it was third time lucky & worth the wait. Viktor also picked up from the airport at gone midnight too! Only 1 downside was the 4 flights of stairs to reach the apartment, no lift!

The property was beautiful-with wonderful beds :) and in a great location.

The property was absolutely clean, spacious, inviting, classy. The location could not have been better for walking distance for the great site to see in BudaPest, except the Baths that you will jump on the Metro for. Viktor was an invaluable resource and a pleasure to have met!

Great Place and Location

We enjoyed our time in Budapest and a large part of this success was due to a great VRBO apartment and the Property Manager (Viktor). We travelled with another couple and had ample modernized space to enjoy ourselves. Viktor arranged transfers to and from airport/rail station which was a big benefit and he gave us very useful Budapest travel information. The kitchen, bedrooms (with king beds) and bathrooms were comfortable. The apartment location to all sites was perfect. All appliances were in good working order and there were ample supplies to get us started on our stay. Washer came in handy. Overall, a great experience.

Great apartment in convenient location.

This is an excellent apartment in a location convenient to all Budapest attractions, public transit and many dining options yet away from the tourist hordes. Interior nicely decorated and very contemporary. Best dining options are near Opera House / Franz Liszt Square and between Basilica and the river, all easily walkable. WiFi was excellent. Would stay here again. Do note the apartment is on the second floor (European numbering) and there is no lift.

Lovely darling, simply lovely

This apartment is amazing. Every room is beautiful. My favorite was the kitchen. The apartment is large, and centrally located in Pest. It was the perfect place for our group from many perspectives. The only down side for us was that you have to climb stairs two flights up. My husband has knee problems so he struggled with the stairs. He still loved the place. Viktor the manager was outstanding. He picked us up at the airport and dropped us off. We also hired him for a walking tour of Pest. His knowledge of Hungary and Budapest specifically is impressive. The apartment is as nice as the photos, if not nicer. It is within walking distance of countless great restaurants. Honestly you can't go wrong with this place, simply lovely darling.

Great apartment in central location

This is a large, airy apartment beautifully decorated. The apartment is close to multiple metro lines. There is shopping and restaurants less than 5 minutes walk away. It is a great property for families with two large bedrooms. We had an extremely enjoyable stay and would happily have stayed longer. I highly recommend this property.

Best host, Best Apartment, Best location!

My family, which consists of myself, my husband, and our three 18 year old daughters from Nashville, Tennessee had the most wonderful stay at this apartment. Victor was prompt with replying by phone texts, promptly met us at the airport, delivered us safely to our apartment, and took us back to the airport. This apartment is everything you would want and more. It was spotlessly clean. We have stayed in apartments all over Europe and this one was the best by far. It was fully equipped with everything you might possibly need and decorated so beautifully! We walked much of the city and it was the perfect location for exploring the historical sites and eating at local restaurants and cafes, our favorite sit-down fair was Lugas, just a few steps down the street. Victor, the property manager, was so kind and helpful in every way- the perfect host for our stay! I would and already have recommended this apartment to friends and family!

Gorgeous apartment in perfect central location

This apartment was wonderful. It was modern, spacious, relaxing, and comfortable. The layout is just perfect for two couples each bedroom with a bath on either sides of the apartment. The owner was attentive and helpful. We especially liked the location central to everything we wanted to do and ease of the Metro and bus just one block away. There are a bakery, kabob shop, and pizza place close by and a large Spar (market) just one stop North on the metro. You can also walk to many of the attractions. We stayed a month and would have possibly liked a few more cooking items in the kitchen, but it was easy and cheap to pick up a few things if you need them. The street is noisy, and can be heard throughout the day, particularly if you have the windows open. But it quiets down a bit at night and was not a problem for any of us sleeping. We stayed for a month and I definitly would go back again!

Zsa-Zsa Varga is award winning! ~ Kathleen from USA

This apartment was BY FAR THE BEST rental I (we) have ever stayed at! We travel a lot and have been to many European cities and we have never stayed at a place this beautiful, spacious, and clean! First, the décor is simply stunning! Soft muted tones with small pops of color in each room.... definitely professionally decorated! There were times that we didn't want to leave the apartment because it was so beautiful and accommodating. When we saw the photos on the computer we thought, "there's no way this place can be that beautiful!" IT WAS!! In addition, everything we needed was thoughtfully provided for us. The beds were extremely comfortable, warm, and cozy. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. The living room couch was modern and comfortable. The shower was hot with great water pressure. It was so nice to relax in such luxurious accommodations after longs days of walking and touring! We loved relaxing on the little balcony with a bottle of wine before going out in the evening! The location of the apartment was walking distance to mostly everything. And there is a great little Italian restaurant with very friendly people next door where we stopped for espresso every day. I saved the best for last..... the property manager, VIKTOR!! Viktor arranged our transfer to and from the train station. He was at the apartment when we arrived and assured us that he was available if anything was needed. It was a relief to know he was there and could help us if needed. We hired him for a walking tour of Budapest as he is a licensed tour guide. He is very knowledgeable in the history of Hungary.... we highly recommend a walking tour with Viktor! We absolutely loved this apartment in every way and we hope to return to Budapest! Hopefully Zsa-Zsa will still be available! Best regards from the USA!
