Szekely Gate Tours and Activities

LOCATION PERFECT Short walk from 100E Airport bus Deak Ferenc drop off point, stroll past Ferris wheel, pop in the grocery store to pick up food essentials en-route. Really not far to pull cabin cases. Near many restaurants (we loved Retek Bistro & Retek Mini (tiny cosy restaurant literally round the corner same block as apartment) for delicious Hungarian food with warm reception & our first taste of Palinka! Book ahead they were full. Sooo near to bus/tram/underground connections. Easy to get around with user friendly Budapest Go BKK app. 1 min walk to St Stephen’s Basilica, 5 min walk to famous Gerbeaud Cafe, 3 min walk to chain bridge to go over to Buda side right, 12 min walk to Parliament & Shoes on Jetty … I could go on. Just a very very convenient location as your base. MODERN & CLEAN Old building with spacious modern interior exactly as in the photos. (We booked Comfy room). Fairly quiet at night with shutter down considering being in busy area of city. Dark room (a must for me to sleep). One thing… Room was a bit warm for me (that’s With no heating on). But thankfully the over-bed fan circulated air and kept me cool enough. Otherwise I would have struggled. Key code entry easy. The mini reception is not 24/7. But we didn’t really need them for much as it’s an apartment stay and everything was ok for us. We stayed 4 nights. I’m quite a fussy person and can honesty say everything was great for me.

The reason I gave it 4 and not 5 stars is that it really needs to do something about the coffee machine at breakfast. The machine is useless… otherwise everything else is very good

Great position Lovely and breakfast
