If you're still mourning the Game of Thrones series finale and longing for a chance to rekindle the ~winter~ spirit, then you'll want to check out this Game of Thrones- themed Airbnb in Budapest, Hungary, available for fans to book at on the website.
Traveling in Budapest? Would you like to travel to Budapest and look for the opportunity to live in a king's lair-turned-apartment? Located on a quiet street in Erzsébetváros, Budapest, Hungary, but within walking distance of the metro and lively bars, this is a TV show-themed apartment that has received critical acclaim. Considering this tinsel town-esque endeavor spans the world from Hollywood (and is also a long way from the European country where the show is filmed), it's not your classic Game of Thrones- themed vacation idea, but it certainly is One that, for fans of the show, is aesthetically on-brand. The apartment's living room features a literal suit of armor, and the walls are covered in Game of Thrones house logos.
The apartment has two beds (a lofted full-size bed and an extra-large sofa bed) but can accommodate up to three guests. Every room has some kind of Game of Thrones- style decor or paraphernalia, including a natural ladder, a loft bedroom lair, animal pelts, a rustic kitchen and bathroom, and of course, a full set of weapons in the middle of the living room. That said, even if you've never watched Game of Thrones , you'll still think this is a cute, cozy apartment with a vibrant vibe that's totally worth renting. At only $43 per night, it's cheaper than a hotel and much more spacious.
What's more, the apartment's owner also offers some concierge services, according to 57 five-star reviews. “He was very welcoming and gave me a detailed itinerary of places to eat/attractions,” one guest boasted. "Ákos provided a lot of great advice and guidance for our trip. Great value for money!" Another was delighted, giving five stars across the board. Another guest explained: "He left a helpful list of suggestions for things to do while you were there."
If you're not familiar with Erzsébetváros, it's Budapest's historic Jewish quarter, now a multicultural mix of Europeans and ruin bars. While it sounds like a pub from the past, the term actually describes a historic building that has been charmingly transformed into a hybrid bar and cafe that you can now visit and enjoy. They are well-known in the area, often feature local art and music, and are an attraction in their own right.
So while you might be tempted to camp out in this themed apartment and re-watch the series, based on guest reviews, you'll likely enjoy all your time outside the apartment because the area is just that exciting. That said, you'll be excited to bury your head in your lair at night, and unlike the haystacks your favorite Game of Thrones characters pass out in, these beds are apparently really comfortable.
