This property is a gem! We could have not asked for a better location. The property is in the Jewish quarter and in the heart of the food area. Itâs a stone throw away from the Opera House and near public transportation. We loved every minute of our stay in this property. The beds are comfortable and the house is warm and inviting, we felt right at home as soon as we walked in. Janos and Josef are great hosts! Very detail and communicative. Their customer service are impeccable. You can tell that they put their heart and soul to ensure the guests have great experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience Budapest and its hospitality. We will definitely come back!
A very comfortable apartment in the heart of the Jewish Quarter. Wonderful location
he property was centrally located in the heart of the old Jewish Quarter, a close walk to public transit. It was in a very lively area, with plenty of bars and restaurants, and grocery stores. But the street noise was only slightly noticeable when in the apartment. Janos (one of the co-hosts) warmly met us at the door when we arrived. He generously spent his time with us (me and my two sisters) orienting us to the apartment (which was very large, and the kitchen well appointed), the city and provided us multiple recommendations for local (affordable) restaurants and interesting day outings. And there was a very informative handout and multiple guidebooks available as well. Although we didn't take him up on his offer to give us a personalized tour (for a fee), I have no doubt that Janos would have done a great job. He is most definitely a super-host!
Janos & Jozsef are great hosts. We took advantage of their city guide and home restaurant offerings and both were excellent. Janos is an insightful guide and it was a pleasure to spend the day with him, then come home to a traditional Hungarian meal cooked up by Jozsef. We spent the evening with them eating, talking, enjoying a few glasses of Hungarian wine, and hopefully making some new friends.The apartment is large enough for 4 adults and very comfortable.Many sights in this beautiful city are within walking distance and the tram/metro system is easy and efficient. Plus it's free if you're 65 yrs or older. Just show your passport or Id if asked.All in all a wonderfully memorable time we would absolutely recommend.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this apartment. The place was exactly what we expected from the photos and description. It was large, very clean and well outfitted. But the most exceptional feature was the attention that our hosts paid to us while we were there. We were greeted upon check in, briefed on things we shouldn't miss during our stay, and received prompt responses when we had questions or asked for restaurant recommendations. We hired JĂĄnos to be our guide on our second day in Budapest, and it was an amazing experience sharing his knowledge and passion for the city. The location of the apartment was great, as long as you don't mind climbing stairs to the third floor (which was fine for us), and the neighbourhood felt safe and quiet. We will definitely stay here again when we return to this amazing city.
I have been to Budapest 3 times in the last year and a half. Each time has been at Josef and Janos VEBO. They are the best hosts - bar none. We were provided an excellent orientation to the building, apartment and community. The home is extraordinaryâŠso much history and full of beautiful antiques. The very best part, however, of the stay was time spent with our hosts. They provided a city trip, a trip to the Danube and a day trip to Bratislava. My most special memory will be that of the dinner prepared for us by Josef. A better meal you will not find in any Budapest restaurant! Music! Wine! Fish and goulash entree and dessert! Served by candlelight with lovely Hungarian music. I am already thinking about my next trip to this beautiful city and staying at Szukkot. There is nothing to not love about this apartment.
The best place to stay in Budapest.Janos and Josef were amazing to communicate with and the property was clean comfortable central and helpful. We wonât stay anywhere but here for now on when we visit Budapest. They even setup our airport transfer and offered private tour of the city. Not to mention my husband got very ill and their assistance helped me find medicine and a pharmacy that prevented a hospital visit
From start to finish this VRBO and Janos and Josef were the most hospitable of hosts. Not only did they stay up until their driver brought us to their lovely apartment way past midnight, but they made plans with us for the following 2 days for tours and dinner reservations. We visited during the beautiful Christmas Markets prior to a riverboat cruise and with the assistance of our hosts we visited Szentendre and spent a most enjoyable day touring and learning the history of Budapest from Janos. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed the apartment and the comfortable bedrooms and living areas as well as the great location - we were right in the middle of everything! We feel that we made life long friends and we will be back!!! xoxo, Carla and Mark, Jim and Judy
Our host was so organized. He arranged our airport pickup, met us upon arrival and helped us settle in, keys/maps/information etc. The location was perfect for us, right on the subway, a block from the Opera, just as advertised. We had plenty of local restaurants, and for mornings, a bakery just around the corner, perfect! Everything we needed was in the apartment, and if it was not I know it was just a phone call away. Having two full bathrooms was an added bonus. He even prearranged our pickup for our return flight, nice to have that piece of mind.
I can't say enough about Janos, our host, he has clearly been doing this awhile and loves it. If you're looking for a comfortable spot in the heart of Budapest, this is it.
Enjoy your stay, we certainly did!
Szukkot apartment is fabulous! Location, the historical building and the amenities are wonderful. But the hosts made our stay simply the best. They provided us with a city tour and tour outside the city. They were immediately responsive to any and all requests. The absolute best part of this entire holiday was enjoying a traditional home cooked meal prepared by our hosts. Iâve stayed at this location twice in 2023 and have already made a reservation for 2024. Stay at Szukkot and you will agree!
I could write all day about Budapest and it is the most wonderful city, but this review is about the apartment and our host. The apartment is very well appointed, authentic and traditional. It emerges you into traditional Budapest culture. The quality and standard is very high and we loved it. We were a family of 4 and we all had so much space and room. The location must be the very best in the city, so central. We had the best breakfast cafe 2 doors down and a very cool bar right under our balcony which we sat and listened to the chit chat and also used. Our hosts were wonderful.., they took so much time to provide guidance and the best way to see the city and they are genuine lovely people. I hope to go back to Budapest very soon and we will only go straight back to this apartment and these lovely hosts.
Our place was perfect! Right in the middle of the sites and restaurants. Very cozy apartment and our hosts were there to greet us and say goodbye. Apartment is right above a bar so front room can be noisy until it closes. But you can either be annoyed by that or embrace it as part of the culture. If Janos offers to take you on a tour you should take him up on that!
My friends and I enjoyed our stay and found the location to be perfect. The apartment is accommodating and efficient. Jozsef and Janos were exceptionally kind and helpful, and we would definitely recommend a guided tour with Janos. He was exceptional and really helped us make our 2 days of sightseeing informative and memorable.
We had a very nice stay in the jewish quarter. Our hosts were very helpful so we understood both the property, the neighborhood and the right places to visit. The apartment is a beautiful place with an European feel. We truly enjoyed ourselves.
First of all, the apartment was perfect - a beautifully restored apartment in a historical building, very clean, well stocked, spacious and in the best location for a holiday in Budapest. But much more important to my friend and me was the the gracious reception and care given to us by our hosts JĂłzsef and Janos, We were treated as treasured friends rather than clients. From our first meeting to our last, they helped with anything we needed. You will never regret a stay in this beautiful home with these wonderful people.
We had a great Stay at Jozsef's apt in the Jewish Quarter. Located in a very vibrant neighborhood right behind the opera house yet a very quiet and comfortable apt. The apt had everything you need, plenty of room for our family of 6. Kitchen well appointed. Jozsef was a great host, provided great suggestions and recommendations and even assisted with reservations. Once you stay with Jozsef you will have a friend for ever in Budapest.
First, our hosts were the very best. They went above and beyond to ensure that we were comfortable in both the lovely apartment and the town. They gave an amazing overview of local attractions, good restaurants, public transportation and made sure we knew we could contact them any time. The apartment was spacious and spotlessly clean. The bedding smelled so fresh, and the balcony is a treat. We counted 58 stairs from the ground to the apartment, which is fine for us, but good for others to be aware of if stairs are difficult for you. But we could not recommend this location or these hosts more. We would love to stay with them again!
Overall great place. Good location, very clean, two baths was nice, well stocked with everything a traveler needs. The apartment is above a pub. There was no loud music, but the party can spill out into the street until late hours. We were not allowed to check-in until 6:30 which was a bummer after 24+ hours of traveling.
