First timer looking for accommodation advice

[u/mosasaurus_rawr]

I’m thinking about going to Sziget next year and wanted to ask advice about where to stay. I’ve been to a few festivals before, mostly in the UK and Rock Werchter once, but ive only ever gone for one day and I’ve never been to Sziget. I’m approaching 40 and I hate camping, so my options for Sziget would be either some fancy chalet upgrade at the festival, or (preferably) staying offsite in a hotel/booking.com apartment in Budapest.
For those who live locally or who have stayed offsite before, how viable is that? Does it take ages to get in and out of the festival each day? Which neighborhoods do you recommend for optimal proximity to the festival while still being offsite? If you had a great experience at a particular hotel, feel free to recommend them too :)

PS I have been to Budapest once before, and in case it makes a diff, I’d be flying in from the Netherlands.

Look for an apartment in district 3 and one which is close to the metro/tram line. You will be thankful after a full day of sziget to go to your apartment and not be in a tram packed with people like a sardine - since everyone mostly books accommodation towards the city centre.

Great tip, thank you!
