Flat for rent - Budimpešta
On Flatio since October 2026
Welcome to my home away from home. I am renting out my writer´s nest in Budapest for several months a year. You, the guest, may be a digital nomad, an artist, a researcher or anybody, a non–partying person, who wishes to stay in Budapest for a longer period, minimum one month, preferably longer. There is generous space for two people. My place is located just steps away from green, generous and peaceful City Park (Városliget). At 50 meters distance, there is an Italian coffeshop and deli. There is a vegan place nearby, a kebab place as well.
My 41 sqm apartment is situated on the 2nd floor (2. emelet) of a classic, historic building from around 1900, with elevator. It has grand 3.80–meter–high ceilings which offer a sense of space and freedom. It faces two separate courtyards. This is a no–party place.
Wi–fi is fast. Being a writer´s place, it has a spacious desk and a comfortable ergonomic chair. A inverter–heatpump was installed in 2024. Two new movable panel heaters may be used where needed. Two beds, which may be put together or stay separate. Three comfortable chairs. A book shelf with books, in English, about Budapest and Hungary, novels and some poetry in English as well as Norwegian. A CD player with CDs and a good bluetooth microphone.
This space, my Hungarian "lung", comes with: bathtub, bed clothes, towels, washing machine, iron, fridge with freezer, electric oven. No microwave or dish–washer.
There is outstanding public transport with trolley–buses 70, 78, 74 and 75 nearby.
The trolley–buses take you to the Danube, the Parliament, the Freedom Square, the Keleti Railway Station, the Jewish Quarter and Tram 4–6 crossing the Danube. The historic Millenium Underground line 1 is nearby. In Budapest you may walk for hours and even get lost – and then find a know trolleybus or tram right there.
City Park is just two blocks away, offering running tracks, the famous Széchenyi thermal baths, The House of Music, museums and an immense green space.
The net income from this rental is fully dedicated to supporting artistic grassroots projects (folk music and painting with plant pigments) for children and young people in Bangladesh and the Bengali part of India. By staying at my place, you are directly contributing to making these grassroots efforts continue.
While I will be in Oslo or in South–Asia, my trusted person Csaba, graphic designer and musician, lives in the neighbourhood. He will hand over the keys.
You are within easy reach of both the historic M1 Millennium Underground line at City Park and the major transit hub at Keleti Railway

I do not know about the parking possibilities. There are many trolley–buses in the neighbourhood. Line 70, 78, 74, 75 and Metro Line 1. This is the best way to get around. The big City Park is at 5 minutes distance. Tram 4 and 6 as well.

About host
On Flatio since October 2026
I am a Norwegian writer who, in the late nineties, walked with her camera in old Budapest in and heard Hungarian jazz, folk and Roma music as well. I was drawn in. I was able to buy my writers nest there in 1999 and since then, I have spent a period every year in the flat. I will continue using the flat every year. I now need to rent out for 8–9 months a year in order to support artistic grassroots efforts in Asia, see below. I write poetry, novels, sometimes non–fiction and I have translated poetry from English, French, German and Bengali. My anti–war commitment as well as my connection with nature and non–violent resistance cannot be broken. I have, with local artists and children, co–founded two artistic grassroots projects in Bangladesh and eastern India: for spiritual folk music in Bangladesh and for painting with plant pigments in eastern India. My renting out is for them. Csaba, a graphic designer and guitarist with a voice, lives in the neighbourhood of my Budapest nest. He is reliable and, within certain limits, reachable and he knows my nest. He has my power of attorney. And he has the keys. (He has my Power of Attorney too. With him, English and Hungarian are the linguistic tools. Practical decisions must be made with him as I will be far away, in the north (Norway) or in the South–East (India and Bangladesh). I will always do my best to respond quickly, with a simple yes, or with a couple of question. If there is a delay in my response, it means I am out of the zone of wifi. Should that happen, please give me a second chance. I spend about three months every year in South–Asia and still want to spend quiet writing time in this precious place in Budapest. That is why the flat will not be sold right away.

FAQ
About this listing
How Flatio works
Once you send a booking request, the host is notified that you are interested in their listing. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your booking.
Hosts are mainly interested in the profile of their guest. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your booking will more likely get approved.
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every listing. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the hosts on Flatio.
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the host and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
In the event that you move in and the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio, let us know as soon as possible!
If the conditions for the withdrawal are met and the host can't fix the issue immediately, you have the option to withdraw from the lease agreement with a full refund. We'll also actively help you find an alternative accommodation and remain by your side until everything is fully resolved.
You can read the conditions and all details about our Move-in Guarantee in this article of our Help Center.
How you can cancel a booking varies depending on what stage the booking is in.
Is your booking request still waiting for host approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your booking request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the booking before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the host accepts your booking, the property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved booking and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your booking, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).

If you cancel your booking 14 days or more before the move-in date, you’ll get a refund of the entire first rent.
If you cancel your booking up to 7 days before the move-in date, you’ll get a refund of half of the first rent.
If you cancel your booking less than 6 days before the move-in date, you won’t get a refund of the first rent.
The service fee is always refundable.
If you send a message to Flatio's Support Team requesting cancelation of the booking ("termination from the start date") within 48 hours after the lease agreement becomes valid, you're entitled to get back all the money you paid for the service fee.
After 48 hours, you're entitled to a refund of the service fee in the form of a "voucher" equal to the amount of the service fee you paid. The voucher can be used for your next booking and is valid for 12 months. If the service fee for your next booking is lower than the voucher amount, we'll issue you a new voucher for the remaining amount, valid for 12 months.
