Budapest Accommodation
 

I'm trying to arrange a long weekend in Budapest for four couples and I can't find any 4-bedroomed self-catering accommodation, all the websites which say 'sleeps 8' only have 2 or maximum 3 bedrooms. Any suggestions anyone?

hi skylatrojones,

i see what you mean.

have you thought of 2 apartments close together?

or even, horrible thought, 4 hotel rooms.

the Hilton has some good weekend offers on if you book before the end of Jan and is in a great position too.

Hi Annhig

Thanks for the ideas. Very helpful.

Also, I've never been to Budapest before so any thoughts on which area to stay would be good.

We stayed in the Vaci area,just back from the Danube-3 minutes from Chain Bridge-10mins from the old market and 15 from Gellert Hill.Basic apartment but warm(we were there in winter)
Lots of good websites for apartments and idea of 2 togther great-should be easy to do.Good luck

We stayed just off Andrassy Ave a block from the Opera House at Hotel Pest. Do not stay in District VIII. We were told by Budapest residents that there is more crime in this district.
You can find information at this website about the districts.

hi Brat,

we stayed there too. Very central, very near to the metro, lovely large room and bathroom. the staff were nice and helpful too, and the fish soup served at the sports bar on the near-by main-road is the best I've ever tasted - we were only there 3 days and we had it twice.

all round good idea!

Cheers everyone! Really glad I've joined Fodor's!!

I would try for 2 2BR apts. I think it's not unusual for rental agencies to have more than 1 apt in a building - so it shouldn't be too difficult to find an agency that rents out 2 2BR apts in the same building.

we had a great rate at the marriot executive apartments. They are very well located adn very niely appoointed with two bedroms each with its own bath attached.

annhig We were amazed at the size of the room at Hotel Pest. The breakfast room was neat with all the stone. The location was great for the metro, bus, and walking. We loved walking on Andrassy and stopping at the little grocery store just off the Octagon and stopping for coffee.
