Maverick City Lodge in Budapest in review
Letโs get into the details. Here is the Maverick City Lodge Review, a superb accommodation and your new home in Budapest. You can rent your bike directly with the hostel and explore Budapest in no time. This is especially recommended by us. We think it is the best way to discover the whole beauty of theย Hungarianย capital.
After a long day of discovering Budapestโs hidden gems, you can join one of the several events organized by the team, e.g. Palenka Wine Tasting. You are already thinking about it, right?!
Before we get into the details, let this cool video take you on a quick tourโฆ
1. Locally managed & Bike Rental Service
The hostel is completely locally managed.
When they build their unique hostel, they were working together with the famous Hungarian interior designer Dรณra Fรณnagy and the Hungarian company Defo Labor.
This way they made sure they get the right mix between a new contemporary look with Hungarian influence.
If you are wondering whatโs the best way to explore the city, Maverick City Lodge has a great idea, we at Hostelgeeks agree with: Ride the city!
The hostel now has bicycles parked right in front of reception, so just ask the lovely staff about pricing for the day. Smart, right?!
2. Minimalist Style in Hungarian Design
Maverick City Lodge is a true design hostel, designed by the famous Hungarian interior designer Dรณra Fรณnagy and the company Defo Labor.
The hostel has kept with a modern minimalist style.
Young Hungarian designers helped to decorate the Lodge, and they used a lot of Hungarian design elements such as lamps by AdamLamp, hangers, sofas, pouffes and beanbags all over the place to keep the place authentic and local.
All the rooms have custom-made furniture designed by Defo Labor, and the dormitories boast unique sleeping compartments.
The room types on offer here include:
- 8 and 10-bed female ensuite
- 8 bed female dorm (shared bathroom)
- 4 and 6-bed mixed dorms
- Basic double room
- Twin and double rooms w/ ensuite
- Superior double room w/ ensuite
Additionally, the hostel also has its own Apartments. Have a look at their Maverick Apartments Budapest.

3. All Characteristics of an outstanding Hostel
โฆ plus the attention to detail!
The Maverick City Lodge combines many unique elements which leads to a homely and charming accommodation.
Modern design with its Hungarian influence, the great location right in the alive heart of Budapest, and very friendly & helpful staff. It is the combination of all these characteristics that make Maverick City Lodge a 5 Star Hostel we are proud to share with you.
Another interesting and lovely part is the effort they do to engage people.
The organized events are all about their culture, to let you taste and experience the Hungarian cuisine, and life-style!
Last point we like to mention is the love & attention to detail at this hostel.
You can tell that Maverick City Lodge was built and is running by heart and passion.
The small notes in the kitchen where travelers leave their analog reviews behind are now dominating the whole wall, the hostel staff bought a selfie-stick so they can take group photos with the clients, and share it with them.
And we have to mention this here; the free all-day coffee is fresh ground coffee, not cheap nasty instant stuff. Grab one of the Italian coffee makers and enjoy a cafe-style coffee to start your day. Perfecto!
Other details we just love:
- Keycard security & 24/7 reception
- Check in until midnight
- Free walking tour
- Sound-proof doors
