Each room at Maverick Central Market will provide you with air conditioning. Some rooms feature a private bathroom with a shower. You can enjoy city view from the room.

Many shops and restaurants are reachable within a short walk from the hostel. Everything was super clean. A nice surprise was that each bed had two pillows - something you can’t always take for granted in hostels :D I also appreciated the lockers that worked with a key card so I didn’t need to bring my own lock The breakfast, which wasn’t included in the price was fantastic and definitely worth it.

Situated conveniently in the 05. Belváros - Lipótváros district of Budapest, Zen Hostel by Central Market is set 13 metres from Great Market Hall, less than 1 km from Gellért Thermal Baths and a 15-minute walk from Hungarian National Museum. Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a shared lounge, along with free WiFi throughout the property. Chain Bridge is 1.9 km from the hostel and Citadella is 1.2 km away. I love the trip the most is the time when i need to rest. Its very comfortable and accessible from city center. There’s a lot of food stablishment around the property. Just if you get confused when arrived in budapest without an internet the property is beside the biang bistro opposite of burger king and very next to cbetral market from the green bridge. I will definitely come back soon with my friends. Highly recommended if you are in tight budget for travelling but not tight for spending souvenirs since its very next to central market hehehe.
