Description of Columbus Apartment close to the city in Budapest

In the Summer of 2008 we opened the recently refurbished 2-room apartment (38 sqm in size) in Zuglo the inner part of the green area in Budapest. The flat is located on the 1st floor of a 3-storey quiet building. Main tourist sights of Budapest are within reach by the nearby excellent public transportation facilities (bus #7, 73 and 173, tram #1 and 1A and Metro Line #2 has an easy access from the flat within 10 minutes by the above buses and trams). Vaci Street and the traditional pedestrian zone of Budapest is just 3 bus stops. The neighbouring area offers the open-air activities in the green (City Park, Zoo, Szechenyi Bath, Heros Square etc.). Our location is benefiting from being close to the following main travel points: Keleti Railway Station, Stadionok Bus Station within 1-3 stops and Ferihegy International Airport is just 13 kms; recommended transport from the airport is Zona Taxi.

Though you can rely on the fantastic public transportation in Thokoly Street you will not suffer from the noise because the windows are facing either to the courtyard or a side street. The flat consists of a bedroom, a living-room with kitchen corner, a bathroom with bathtub and a small entry room. There is a double bed in the bedroom and a large sofa-bed in the living-room accommodating up to 4 people total.

We supply bed linen, sheets, blankets, towels and toilet-paper, iron with ironing board and washing machine.

The apartment is furnished and equipped in a modern way with matching colours. It is suitable for long term rental as it is spacious, bright and calm; close to the center of Budapest but letting you enjoy being close to some freshness.

Parking is possible in the street or in public garages (must be solved individually).

The person who hands you the keys when you arrive at the flat will provide all necessary information regarding your stay in the apartment and in Budapest. We hope to make your stay in our city a pleasant and comfortable one.

All taxes are included in price. Since Columbus Apartment are self-catered accommodation breakfast is not included. Payment in cash upon arrival (no cheques or credit cards accepted). For long stays we apply individual prices. Please, refer to the rates.

Do you organize airport pick-up to the apartment?

The extra service of pick-up would make the transfer cost higher for you so we recommend the public transportation: take 200 or 93 bus to the final stop where you can change to the metro to Ferenciek Square where you can take bus 7, 73 or 173; it costs you 3.5 EUR and takes no more than 80 minutes. If you prefer comfort you can have a taxi: you will be at the apartment in 30 minutes or shorter for 21 EUR (Zona Taxi charge fixed price for max. 4 persons).
