This is a beautifully designed and finished apartment in a funky old building. Well equipped with everything you need. Big bright windows facing an interior courtyard. Absolutely silent in the apartment despite its location on a busy street.
Huge closets with lots of hangers. Comfortable bed. Don’t let the somewhat scary building entrance put you off, once you are inside it’s a different situation.
Detailed instructions on every aspect of the apartment from the host. Easy self check in and out.
Located right in the core of central Pest, Easy walking distance to many attractions and restaurants.

My wife and I work together on the road, so we need some extra elbow room for long stays (12 nights in Budapest). This apartment was excellent because:
. Responsive host who is a good communicator.
. Dead quiet, day or night.
. Good AC (we had 95-degree days)
. Two bathrooms
. Two work areas (desk in bedroom & dining table
. Walkable to almost everything
. Good kitchen plus a washing machine.
Would definitely stay again.

This comfortable and tasteful apartment is located inside a beautiful old building facing a quiet courtyard. Tall ceilings and windows, Da Vinci prints, ample greenery, and old world marble staircases create a pleasing atmosphere. Stefano was friendly and professional, and the many welcome details inside the apartment were appreciated!

We had planned a visit to Budapest for quite some time, trying to work around COVID. Visiting in Oct 2022 was much easier to navigate as most COVID requirements had been eliminated. The property is represented accurately and met our needs perfectly. The self check-in/check out process was easy/convenient. It is centrally located, near the Metro and other public transportation. It is clean, quiet, safe, well furnished, with a good bed, linens, lots of storage, updated bathrooms, laundry (washer only), good items in the kitchen for cooking/eating in if you want to do that. It is surrounded by lots of excellent restaurants, historical places, and you are able to walk to anything need. The grocery store (x 2), pharmacy, banks are all close by. Stefano (host manager) is exceptional. He is responsive to any issues you may have and works hard to make your stay an enjoyable one. While we had to shorten our stay, due to personal medical issues, we would return to Budapest in a heartbeat. We really loved the city and its' people/culture/history. We would definitely book this apt again. Val and Jeff D

Perfect location with many shops and attractions well within walking distance. Any transit connections I needed during my stay were also extremely close. The apartment was located on a major street that crosses the river on an easily recognizable bridge so I would always know how to get back.
Once inside building you are completely isolated from any sort of street noise. You could have been in the countryside. Sometimes it was surprising to exit the building and be in the heart of Budapest with all that was going on in a major city.
I stayed for 28 days so it was important for me to not feel like I was in a Hotel room. Some days I would just fiddle around like I was at home and the extra space made me feel much more relaxed.
The Host Stefano was great. I just spoke English to him and had absolutely no difficulty. I didn’t require too much from him I just requested an extra cleaning during my stay and he was very accommodating to my schedule for a very reasonable price. It was the perfect apartment for me for my stay. Wi-Fi was as good as my house in San Francisco and that was also important to me.

The property was very nice and comfortable! We stayed here for a month and enjoyed every minute of our trip! We actually rented two apartments, with my parents staying in one and my husband and I staying in another. This is the 2nd time we have stayed here for an extended time. If there was something we needed or a question we had, either Luca or Stefano were more than willing to help us out. The location was great, the metro and buses were close. There were several good restaurants and shops within walking distance. I highly recommend Ruben Etterem on Magyar U., great food at good prices! The Gerloczy has a great breakfast and is right around the corner. There are way too many to name. We can't wait to go back!! WE LOVE BUDAPEST!!

This is very comfortable apartment in an ideal location. Communication regarding booking and access was quick and efficient. The building is quiet on a busy street and perfectly situated to great cafes, restaurants, shops and tourist sites. Walking to the Buda side is a breeze with direct access to the bridge. The metro is very close but we didn't even use it because Budapest is such a walkable city. The train station is also nearby, about a 25 minute walk, quick metro or a 5-7 minute cab ride.
The apartment has a great layout with plenty of room in the living space to relax and take a meal. Loved the high ceilings as well for an added spacious feel. The 1.5 bathrooms is a perk too! Since we were visiting in January we were greatful for a wonderful warm place to return to after being out and about in the cold. Great water pressure for a hot shower, plenty of closet space and full length mirrors. The bed is decent and there are plenty additional bedding options. The pillows are down so beware they are on the softer side if you tend toward a firmer option. The kitchen has all the updgraded features and was efficient to cook in. We loved our stay here and would definitely stay again.

very nice stay Kossuth Lajos street
Location:
The apartment on Kossuth Lajos Street, 2 blocks from the Elizabeth Bridge.
The 100 E from the airport stopped 2 blocks from the apartment. (Astoria stop)
We were within walking distance of many fine restaurants and many sights. We even
walked to the Parliament and the Castle Hill.
Apartment:
We were met by the owner's nephew when we arrived.
The apartment is on a very busy street, but the windows face an inner court.
We heard no noise.
The apartment was clean and beautifully appointed. It has no dryer, but the
clothes dried well on the clothes rack provided.
The owner and his nephew, Giovanni were attentive to our needs and very nice.

We enjoyed our stay in the two apartments we rented for 8 people for six nights The apartments are lovely, spacious and very clean.
There is a well-equipped kitchen with complimentary coffee. Both the dishwasher and the washer were very user-friendly.
The location is excellent: this beautiful building is located on the Pest side, only a few minutes walk away from the Nagyvasarcsarnok, Vorosmarty Ter, Deak Ter. Erzsebet-hid and Ferenciek Tere subway station are around the corner. It is about 10 minutes away from Szent Istvan Bazilika,, about 20 minutes from Lanchid and 30 from the Parlament.
We will be sure to return to Dreher Palace again in the future, but in the interim will highly recommend it to anyone interested.
Thank you Giovanni for greeting us at arrival and for being there for us. It was a pleasure meeting you!!

Located just at the Pest end of the Elizabeth bridge the apartment is ideally located to access all parts of the old city center. Whilst most of the sights are within easy walking distance, even for two geriatrics, two of the Metro line stations, M3 and M2, a major bus stop, a tram stop and a river boat dock are all in the immediate vicinity. All Budapest transport facilities are free for 65+ travelers and no authorization procedure or document is required other than a picture ID with date of birth. Similarly entry to museums is also free on the same age basis.
The apartment itself is a very secure, although we had the strong impression that there is little crime in the city compared to just about any Western European capital- perhaps attributable to the homogeneous composition of the population.
Located on the second floor of a baroque palace- really an apartment block with an inner courtyard- it is accessed by lift or stairs and entered through a small vestibule which it shares with another apartment owned by the same person. It has been recently renovated and furnished in a modern minimalist style, and is air conditioned. The layout comprises a large en suite bedroom with massive storage, a comfortable lounge/ dining area with an attached powder room and a small but very well designed and fully equipped kitchen, which we used only for breakfast as Budapest has a plethora of restaurants of all types with excellent food and wine at very reasonable prices. Services include cable TV , which we did not use, and very fast and stable wi fi broadband. The property manager ,Stefano, arranged for a taxi to meet us at the airport, was at the apartment to greet us and could not have been more helpful or informative.
In all we can thoroughly recommend this unit for a couple ( plus two small children would not be a problem) for a visit to this delightful city, similar in character to Vienna, Prague and Bratislava, all former centers of the Austrian Hungarian empire which reached it's baroque zenith in their late 1800s berore collapsing in the aftermath of World War One.

sehr zentral und ruhig, tolles Ambiente
Schönes Gebäude, Fenster zum schönen Innenhof, daher sehr ruhig, trotzdem hell.
Sehr sauber, moderne und geschmackvolle Einrichtung, sehr bequeme Betten.
Auch mit Pkw geeignet wegen naher Parkgaragen.
Nette unkomplizierte Vermieter.
i-Tüpfelchen: "Paloma"-Ladengemeinschaft mit individuellem Sortiment im nächsten Innenhof und Café Auguszt in unmittelbarer Nähe - sehr lecker!

Apartment was renovated and it had everything but a dryer. Owner states it has a dryer but it is a drying rack. It is a bath and a half and that is very helpful. Would stay there again.

Wunderbarer Urlaub
Wir waren Anfang Mai zu zweit eine Woche Gäste der schönen Ferienwohnung von Stefano. Seit Buchung bestand ein netter Kontakt . Er hat immer sehr schnell geantwortet. Auch die Taxivorbestellung über Stefano für die Anreise verlief problemlos und perfekt.
Es ist sehr beeindruckend wie die Wohnung in dem alten Haus wunderbar restauriert und modern eingerichtet wurde. Sie liegt sehr zentral, nahe der Vaci Utca und der Elisabethbrücke. In unmittelbarer Nähe befinden sich Supermärkte und Banken. Aber dennoch kann man nachts gut schlafen, da die Wohnung im Innenhof liegt und der Verkehrslärm nicht durchdringt. Die Wohnung ist ein ausgezeichneter Ausgangspunkt, um alle Sehenswürdigkeiten zu Fuß zu erreichen.
Wir möchten uns besonders bei Luca bedanken, der uns herzlich empfangen hat. Er hat uns anhand einer Karte viele Tipps gegeben was man sich ansehen sollte. Wir haben seinen Rat befolgt und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Bei Fragen hat Luca immer sehr schnell per WhatsApp geantwortet. Wir wurden ausgezeichnet betreut. Auch die Rückfahrt per Taxi zum Flughafen hat wieder reibungslos geklappt.
Die Wohnung verfügt über eine gute Grundausstattung in Küche und Bad. Es ist alles vorhanden von Toilettenpapier über Handseife, Duschbad, Haarwäsche und Gewürze sowie Öl in der Küche. Man sollte vor dem Einkaufen erst mal in die Schränke schauen. Die Wohnung hat ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Wir empfehlen diese und Budapest auf jeden Fall weiter und kommen gerne wieder.

Beautiful Apartment, wonderful people!
We so enjoyed our stay at this apartment. The courtyard is so romantic and the apartment so modern, comfortable, and well equipped, as well as very, very clean. So nice to have the extra half bathroom! The location is terrific to get to everything--we enjoyed walking to the Central Market to get fruits and vegetables, and to the Chain Bridge for the lovely views. Many nice restaurants not far away, either. Luca made it all very easy for us--greeting us at the apartment, showing us how to use everything, and we felt very well cared for. The apartment was also very comfortable even when it was quite hot outside. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends.

Week stay in Budapest
An overall comfortable place to stay. On Kossuth Lajos, a few blocks back from the Elisabeth Bridge. Even though on very noisy street apartment far enough in the back where you can't here traffic. Very walkable to most areas. Ferenciek Tere metro station is nearby, Astoria metro is near in the other direction. Stayed for a full week but I think 4-5 days max is all you need. Giovanni was helpful in setting up transfer from apartment to the airport. Small grocery close, lots of restaurants close by, never felt unsafe the whole week.
However, some things that would be VERY helpful.
More towels! My husband and I were only left with 2 hand towels (one for each bathroom & no soap in one bathroom) , one bath towel for each of us, and one kitchen towel. No washcloths, no extra towel for my hair (long and thick so it needs a towel) If you are planning on going to one of the thermal baths bring extra towels or you will have to rent them there as there aren't any extras here!
Directions on how to use the washing machine and espresso/coffee machine. As an American, these are different than what we have here. Took us 3 loads of clothes before we finally figured it out (BTW no dryer everything has to be air dried but drying rack in apartment).
Written suggestions on local places to eat would have been nice. Giovanni named some suggestions when asked but we could only remember a couple.
Explanation on the train, tram, bus system. We have used public transportation in Spain, NYC, Washington DC, Chicago, etc and it took us several days to figure it out and even then the bus system was still confusing.

An excellent base to explore a beautiful city
The apartment is excellently positioned for exploring Budapest either on foot or via the tour buses with stops close by.
The apartment it self is a wonder of design with spacious en suite bedrooms, a well appointed lounge/ diner and well equipped kitchen.
There is also a superb restaurant within 100 metres. ( Ruben's )
Overall, we couldn't have had a better base for our visit with Luca even arranging taxi transfers to the airport(€28).
An excellent experience- many thanks Stefano and Luca!

comfortable, easy access, the BEST
Luca is amazing and has beautiful apartments/flats. He bends over backwards to make your stay the very best. The building is beautiful, once belonging to the Dreher family. We walked everywhere because the building is close to the pedestrian street(Vaci Utca), elizabeth bridge, easy access to groceries, restaurants, subway, and the city is safe. The apt was perfect in every way. I highly recommend this apt as well as any place operated by Luca as the best place to stay! Thank you Luca

When I read the reviews of this apartment in Budapest, I thought it could not possibly be as wonderful as everyone said. Well, it was! The location is perfect - really close to the pedestrian street with lots of restaurants and not far from the market hall, tram stops and many places of interest. The apartment is spacious and the furnishings are lovely. I would definitely stay there again if I go back to Budapest. Also, the owner was very helpful in giving us the name of a driver. Not only did we use Peter to take us to and from the airport but we hired him to take us on a day trip out of the city to see some of the surrounding countryside. He is professional, reliable and an interesting guy to talk to. I cannot say enough about how great DREHER PALACE and the management staff were.
