We loved this apartment.  It is absolutely true to the photos, which still didn’t prepare us for its grace and comfort.  We had been informed that the public spaces in most Budapest apartment buildings were still a work in progress, so as we walked down the barren and somewhat disheveled halls to the apartment we were prepared, but when we opened the door into the apartment we were blown away by the contrast with its shining marble floor and beautifully finished appointments.  

Our host, Jacqueline, and our local assistant Kate were exceptionally helpful whenever we need information or assistance before the trip and during our stay.  The apartment was in a great location for our first trip to Hungary. From the apartment you can walk in any direction and find interesting shops, restaurants and nightlife.  The metro is across the street providing access to more distant sights. We enjoyed it all, but don’t miss taking a boat trip on the Danube. We went up to Szentendre for a delightful visit to a lovely small Hungarian town.   Budapest is an enchanting city (really two cities) with wide boulevards, castles, museums and lots of interesting little corners.  It is being rebuilt with an eye to the historic architecture that remained after the post war Soviet occupation.  The history of this place is worth taking the time to understand. It will surprise you.   We hope to return again!
