The Owners

Owners Carolyn (originally from Washington, DC) and Gábor (from Northern Hungary) Bánfalvi fell in love with this pretty and historic neighborhood in Budapest when they moved here a few years ago. They got married at a nearby church, and their two daughters now play at the several playgrounds in this family-friendly neighborhood. Carolyn and Gábor just a showt walk from the apartment, and are easily available to guests who have questions or need advice on what to do and see in Budapest. They are happy to act as resources to their guests. Carolyn, a food and travel journalist who has authored two culinary guidebooks to the city, can tell guests the best places to dine and drink. And Gábor, a Hungarian translator, can help with the intricacies of the language. Together they also operate a boutique culinary tourism company, Taste Hungary, through which they lead food and wine tours throughout Hungary. They are sure that after a stay in this lovely, classic Budapest apartment, you’ll fall in love with the neighborhood just as they have.
