Let’s start by exploring Budapest Apartments 24/7. They offer about 40 thoroughly renovated – and sometimes thematically decorated – inner-city apartments that we can rent out for an extended weekend, or even for a longer stay. We especially recommend this to visitors who would like to enjoy Budapest like a local, and who want to have all of Budapest’s major attractions just a stone’s throw away.
The apartments are stunning, generally house 2-4-6 people, and have a wide price range that provides travelers with cheaper flats or luxurious suites. The company was first launched as a startup when renovating a friend’s flat, but it soon became successful, and recently they even added the finishing touches to a Star Wars-styled apartment. Hence, you can now come to Budapest and share lodgings with Darth Vader and stormtroopers, and control the lights with lightsabers.
The system is really simple; you can pick and book a favored flat on the website, and then collect the keys – and some useful information about what must not be missed in the city, and where to try traditional Hungarian food – upon arrival. It is important to note that these cool apartments are all renovated, and are beautifully decorated.
The second service we'd like to present is safe luggage storage in downtown Budapest. Budapest Luggage Storage is found on Régi posta Street, right in the heart of the Hungarian capital just steps away from historic Váci Street. A huge advantage is that if you already checked out of your apartment or cannot yet check in, but you’d like to start exploring the city straight away, you can leave your heavy bags here. It is a truly practical solution for travelers and backpackers, as they are open every day of the week (more precisely from 9am till 7pm). This is Budapest’s first left-luggage storage; their service is free for the guests of Budapest Apartments 24/7, while for visitors who stay at another accommodation, it costs 1 euro per hour per bag.
The team’s office is found right next to the luggage storage, and this is where to go if you’d like to leave your stuff at the lockers. In addition to all of that, the truly friendly staff is always glad to help with any other emerging issues, whether its printing your boarding pass or getting a map. If you’re visiting Budapest anytime soon, definitely note the names of Budapest Apartments 24/7 and Budapest Luggage Storage.
