What are the advantages of renting a room in Budapest?

If you love meeting people and sharing part of your day with them, renting a room in a shared flat in Budapest is a perfect idea. The city is known for its university life and nightlife, so with the friends you make in the apartment you can go out to party or even become your study partners.

How much does a room cost in Budapest?

Budapest has a reputation for being an expensive city, but it can actually be cheaper than other European capitals. The prices of the rooms will depend on the area in which you are looking, the conditions in which the apartment is, the size, etc. Most Budapest flats are very old but you can find some with newly renovated rooms, which will increase the price. The average price of a renovated room will be around 100,000 Hungarian Forint.

What is the best area to rent a room in Budapest?

Budapest has 23 districts, 6 in the Buda area and the rest in the Pest area. If you want to be closer to the university, the IX district will be ideal. If what you prefer is to be next to the centre, the best districts will be V, VI, VII and VIII. But if you prefer a little more tranquillity, the Buda area is the one that best suits you.

Is it difficult to find a room in Budapest?

Looking for accommodation abroad is always tedious, and if we add the difficulty of the language in Budapest, it can cost a little more since many owners only speak Hungarian. However, if you manage to find a tenant (whether a university friend or a workmate) who is already there and who speaks Hungarian, it will be easier. As for the offer, it will not be difficult for you to find an available room since new rooms are continually appearing and becoming free, you just have to check the web pages often, where they are published, such as Spotahome!

What bills are included in the rent of a room in Budapest?

Depending on the room you choose, its owner may or may not include the utilities in the monthly price, so we recommend you check if you will have to pay for water, electricity, internet and gas separately according to consumption. Another expense that must be taken into account is the expenses of the community. In Budapest, the tenant is responsible for paying these expenses, so keep in mind that you will have to save part of the money to accommodate it.

Where can I look for a room to rent in Budapest?

There are different websites where you can search for rooms, such as Spotahome. Our advisors speak English, which will make it easier for you to manage all the procedures. They will also know how to advise you on which neighbourhood is right for you, since they are usually international and have extensive travel experience.
