Home description
This spacious apartment combines the best of old Budapest in a classic 100-year-old building with Art Nouveau furnishings, and the new, with a satellite plasma screen TV and modern renovated kitchen and bathroom. The house is right around the corner from Parliament and steps away from the Danube embankment, with its lovely views over to Buda. The recently renovated Szabadság square is nearby, as is Budapest's main street for art and antiques.
With tram, metro and bus stops almost right outside the door, none of the city's attraction or nightlife are far away.

The Central Hungary/Danube region
Sitting at an intersection of many diverse cultures, Hungary has absorbed the cultural influences of Turks, Habsburgs and Soviets into its own extensive traditions. Just north of Budapest is the former Serbian enclave and artists' colony of Szentendre. A little further is the hilltop castle of Visegrád, home to Hungary's mightiest medieval kings. South of the city, the Statue Park holds Eastern Europe's only extensive collection of monumental communist-era sculpture. To the east, Gödöllő hosts a 19th-century holiday mansion of the ruling Habsburgs, and is a local wine centre.
Budapest / District 5 area
Just steps away from the apartment, the view across the Danube from Pest to Buda is listed as a Unesco World Heritage site for its spectacular beauty both day and night. The city itself has a riot of architectural styles both on its expansive boulevards and the narrow streets of the Jewish Quarter. Budapest is already famous for its exotic and refreshing thermal baths.
Culturally, the extensive Fine Arts Museum deserves to be better known, while its tradition of fine classical music is well-established. Contemporary and classical music especially flourishes with the annual Spring Festival. Growing prosperity has brought an array of fine restaurants and a lively, sophisticated nightlife scene.
How to get there
►Various budget airlines operate flights from cities in the UK and Ireland to Ferihegy airport, Budapest. ►The airport is approximately 25km from the city centre, travel time is 30-40 minutes. ► Airport minibus service available door-to-door. Only worthwhile if you are travelling alone. ►Zona taxi operates at a fixed price from the airport. The rates are cheaper than a private taxi and drivers speak English. State your destination at the kiosk outside the main entrance and obtain a ticket. Payment should be made to the driver (in Hungarian forints). This is a cheaper option than the airport minibus if two or more travellers are taking the taxi.
