Why name our Hostel "Home Made" ?
Our hostel's name 'Home Made' reflects one of our main principles, the re-use of classic furniture
and equipment that used to be part of authentic Hungarian homes. If you come to stay at our hostel, you will find redesigned objects with a different function that may surprise the traveller. Our guests sleep in individually designed beds and lofts, sit and lie on nicely and creatively renovated old furniture, read books by hand-made lamps or use sold suitcases as shelves. The traveller can feel the warm, peaceful, cosy and the friendly atmosphere of a home at the hostel.
'Home Made' is an ideal place for rest during a long and tiring journey. Yet, the hostel is continuously on the move as it permanently keeps changing its character, and you can also contribute to this by bringing along a smart redesign idea which can come into reality.
The staff
We are real globetrotters in our late 20s and early 30s. We have travelled the width and length of the world, had good times and bad times too during our travels. We slept rough in New York and big cities of Europe, watched the sunset in the Egyptian desert, walked the narrow streets of Amsterdam and climbed the mountains of the Rocky Mountains in the U.S.
We know what it feels like sleeping next to a snoring person on the train and standing for hours on the road in the rain waiting for a lift and then finish the day in a comfortable bed. We picked the languages we speak during our travelling: English, French, Polish and would not feel uncomfortable to make ourselves understood in Spanish and Portuguese.
