Restaurants Association in Hungary Presses for Consultations on Short-Term Rentals
- 23 Sep 2024 7:52 PM
The Hungarian Restaurant Association has recommended drafting regulations on short-term rentals based on international precedent and consultations with professional organisations.
In a statement sent to MTI, the association noted that homestays accounted for over half of tourism accommodation capacity in the capital.
It recommended suspending the issue of short-term rental permits for a year, in 2025, during which time surveys could be conducted and studies made, with the involvement of professional organisations, allowing regulations to be drafted that could serve as a paradigm at the European level.
Regulation should focus on the inner districts of the capital, especially the area designated a World Heritage Site, the association said. Extending the rules nationwide would be unnecessary, it added.
The association also proposed applying the same tax rules to commercial accommodations as to short-term rentals.
