Guest comments
Thanks for making our trip to Budapest so special, your advice was spot on and your apartment is the perfect place to relax after a long day of shopping and sightseeing. You could not have picked a more convenient location - so important for a short trip. We really appreciated the extra touches like the lovely toiletries. We were so sad to leave! Emma, London
Thanks for your flat: it's really great! We went to the winery you recommended which was excellent and we followed the other tips you gave us about Budapest and had a fantastic time. Luca, Milan
We just wanted to say thanks for providing such a great service when we were in Budapest. We loved your apartment - you did a fantastic job with the design and the location was so convenient. It was so nice to wake up to that incredible view. Everything ran smoothly and we felt we could always contact you if we were stuck (or lost!), which was a great comfort to us. Thanks again and we hope to come again in the Summer. Jimmy
Owner profile
About the owner
I am Australian but my background is Hungarian. I have always felt a strong affinity for this beautiful and intriguing city and a year ago I bought a classical apartment in the most central location I could find.
It overlooks one of Budapest's great monuments - its Basilica. The apartment was a mess inside and so we started again, renovating it from scratch and keeping all the original features and turning it into a home I would be happy to live in myself.
I now live in London and visit Budapest as often as I can. I hope you like the apartment and the city as much as I do.
Year purchased: 2008
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
I bought this classical apartment in the most central location I could find in Budapest. It overlooks one of Budapest's great monuments - its Basilca. The apartment was a mess inside and so we started again, renovating it from scratch and keeping all the original features and turning it into a home I would be happy to live in myself. The grand 1860's building has now also been fully renovated, making the whole property just perfect.
I love staying there because everything is a stone's throw away. I go running along the Danube and my favourite bar is downstairs. The food is amazing in Budapest and we are really spoilt for choice in this part of town. If you want to go to the opera, you walk there. It's incredible.
Unique benefits of the property
I love staying there because everything is a stone's throw away. I go running along the Danube and my favourite bar is downstairs.
The food is amazing in Budapest and we are really spoilt for choice in this part of town, whether in the immediate vicinity of the Basilica or on nearby Liszt Ferenc Square.
If you want to go to the opera, you walk there. It's incredible. And when you come home you feel a million miles from everything, and all you see is a beautiful pedestrianised square and one of Budapest's landmark monuments lit right outside your bedroom window.
