Perfect central Budapest apartment

We stayed in the White Happy Home Budapest apartment which was beautiful. Greeted by the lovely Kate who showed us around & explained everything wonderfully. Great location to explore everything central Budapest has to offer. Only a few metro stops from the city centre/Danube or approx. 25 min walk. Very clean, huge shower, great little kitchenette with lots of appliances. Spacious apartment in general with lovely mezzanine level for the bedroom. Great value for money for a self-contained city centre apartment.

Really enjoyed our stay at Happy Home Diamond. Nice, quiet street & building with a secure gated entrance. Great location 2 mins walk from a main square with metro / tram / bus stops. Better shower than most hotels & having netflix on the TV was a nice touch. Very friendly staff showed us the facilities and then at the luggage drop-off office. If possible it would be a good idea to indicate the correct building. The ceiling in the bedroom area is uncomfortably low and the pillows weren't great, but they're minor inconveniences.

Een top locatie in het hart van Boedapest. Alles prima geregeld, uitstekende communicatie en iemand aanwezig bij aankomst om alles uit te leggen. Je hebt een appartement wat van alle gemakken voorzien is. Vanuit hier kan he alle kanten op met bus, tram en metro. Wanneer wij weer gaan dan boek ik absoluut weer bij Happy Home ♥️

最初場所が見つけずらく、外の扉から中に入ると、あまり綺麗ではない中庭を通ってアパートの入り口まで行きます。写真付きで入室の仕方を送ってもらっていたので、スムーズに入室出来ました。室内は大変綺麗で、コーヒーメーカーや調理器具もあり助かりました。メゾネットタイプの部屋でゆとりがありました。

Big space

We had a five night stay at Happy Home White. The apartment is big. There is a kitchen full of necessary stuff. Close to supermarkets, bus, tram, metro and train stations. The apartment is very dark and humid. The loft upstair has no storage. Very low ceiling. Head board tucked into a concave wall. If someone is claustrophobic like me, you are in big trouble. Shower is not consistant. Hot shower turn cold several time during my shower. Pinball machine, electric key board is nice but no time to make use of them if you are busy touring the city. More storage space instead would be nice. Washing machine is nice.

とても良い部屋でした。 キッチンや洗濯機&乾燥機（部屋のすぐ外にあります）がついていて、部屋も広かったです。 ロフトは身長170cm以上だと頭があたると思いますので注意が必要です。 徒歩5分程度でスーパーなどもあるためとても便利です。 気になる点としては、部屋に入るための中庭は埃っぽいのと夜になるとだいぶ暗いです。 また、場所がわかりにくく迷う可能性があります。ただし、WhatsAppでメッセージを送るとすぐに返信してくれるため、迷った時には連絡するのをオススメします。

We were in the white apartment. It was lovely and clean with everything we would need even down to dishwasher tablets. Was a little bit smaller than we thought but still very spacious. Very quiet considering we were just off a main road. Supermarkets were 2 minutes away and which ever direction you walked in for around 5 minutes there was shops and bars. Only thing I would say it needs is a thicker mattress, more pillows and maybe a lamp or something upstairs.

This is a unique, quirky apartment in a great location. Yes it looks a tad rough around the exterior but don’t judge a book by its cover. Inside it is clean, bright, fun and safe. We loved the pinball, guitar and keyboard. The mini bar was a great added bonus as was the free mobile WiFi. Staff were super as were their transfers.
