Your reservation is typically valid until 10:00 on the day of departure.

If possible and requested, we will try to rearrange and accommodate an extension of your stay. The additional cost for our colleagues' extra effort is €15 per hour. If you wish to stay in the apartment beyond 5:00 PM, and we have the availability to accommodate your request, the full room rate for the day needs to be paid, as we are unable to sell it to another guest for that day.

Budapest's biggest attractions include Buda Castle and Gellért Hill, as well as the entire Buda Castle District. The castle built on the hills was rebuilt by the Habsburg dynasty during the 18th century, after it was destroyed by the Turks in 1686. The Buda Castle and the Fisherman's Bastion are currently adding to the list of Unesco World Heritage sights together with the Danube bank. The world heritage area stretches from the Margit Bridge to the Freedom Bridge, and on the Buda side includes the historic building complex, Gellért Hill with the Statue of Liberty and the Citadel, as well as the popular Gellért Baths. Also part of the heritage are the most characteristic buildings belonging to the Pest side of the coast, including the impressively sized Parliament House (Parliament) built in an eclectic style, the neo-Renaissance headquarters of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and the Art Nouveau masterpiece Gresham Palace. Last but not least one should mention Pesti Vigadó too. In addition, the Matthias Church, the National Széchény Library, the National Gallery and the Budapest History Museum are also worth seeing in the Buda Castle District.
