A quiet and genuine home right in the business and adminisrative center of Budapest, within a short walking distance from major sites:
Chain Bridge, Parliament, Basilica :: within 5 minutes
Buda Castle, Margaret Island, Synagogue, ruin pub disctrict :: within 15-20 minutes
4 grocery stores, 5+ cafés, 30+ restaurants :: within 5 minutes
The apartment is comfortably suitable for up to 5 adults, or up to 6 people if some of these are toddlers.
The apartment is situated on the top (4th) floor of a building that was built around 1870 and completely renovated in 1990. There's a new elevator. This is a residential building, so you'll feel the vibe of actually living in the city, not just a soulless hotel or a run-of-the-mill Airbnb.
The apartment is a duplex. On the lower floor you'll find a spacious dining area with 6 chairs, a well-equipped kitchen with all appliances. Pots and pans, plates, mugs, utensils, dishwasher, stove, oven, microwave, fridge, freezer, washing machine, Nespresso coffee machine, water boiler, toaster. (No tumble dryer, but we have drying lines, an iron, and an ironing board.)
You can find plenty of basic food and cooking items such as cooking oil, spices, sugar, flour, pasta, rice, cocoa powder, etc. If anything runs out, please buy a new package.
There's also a living room with a TV set, lots of books, and board games. We also have some guidebooks.
Disclaimer: the windows open to the internal courtyard, not on the street. There are no sweeping views of the city – but as a compensation, you get to enjoy peace and quiet.
The apartment is fully baby friendly: we have high-chair, baby bed, baby utensils, potty, trainer toilet seat, even a small table with toddler chairs, plus some toys for toddler and older children.
A staircase leads up to the upper floor. Some elderly guests complained that it’s too narrow for them, and there’s no fence. Also, the space may be a bit narrow for large (20 kg) suitcases. Then again, we’ve had several elderly guests (even with hip replacement) who walked up without any problem.
The upper floor boasts two spacious bedrooms, a bathroom, a storage room, and a cozy reading nook. The smaller bedroom is about 18 m2, and has a queen-size bed, a desk, and an office chair. The larger bedroom is about 25 m2, L-shaped, with a king-size bed, and a convertible sofa that we usually keep open to sleep one more person.
There are 3 air-con units in the apartment: one in each bedroom, plus one in the living room. All A/C units can be used for cooling and heating. Btw, heating is strong and reliable, usually working from early October till late April.
The bathroom is on the upper floor, with a large tub that doubles as a shower zone, a toilet, and a sink. We do have a hair dryer.
There’s also a storage room with extra pillows, blankets, towels, and sheets. There’s also a hanger area for your clothes.
The upper floor is under the roof, with skylights (roof windows). We use outer sun shades during the warm months to reflect some of the sunlight and keep the rooms cooler. All windows can be completely darkened.
The apartment has a special atmosphere, a genuine home. You can see some artefacts we brought home from various backpacking trips when we were younger. A tablecloth from Esfahan, plates from Samarkand, hats from Central Asia and the Caucasus area, a warrior couple from Nairobi, a salt sack from Yerevan, and more.
You’ll love it here.
Internet is fast and reliable.

Frequently asked questions for this offer
What happens after I make a reservation?
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
What is the standard furnishing of flats?
All the apartments on offer on Flatio must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.
What is a medium-term rent?
The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without Flatio is not that easy.
Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on Flatio.
Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.
How can I pay?
On Flatio, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.
How can I cancel my reservation?
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
