'Airbnb Ban' - End to Short-Term Rentals Imposed in Downtown Budapest District

• 1 Nov 2024 7:16 AM

The local council of Budapest's District VI, in the city centre, voted on a short-term rentals ban from January 1, 2026 at a meeting.

In a statement, the local council said residents' "peace at home" had trumped the decline in budget revenue the ban would entail.

In a referendum in September, around 54pc of the residents of the district voted for the homestay ban. The 20.5pc participation rate was "well over" that for similar votes, such as the 9pc rate for a city-wide survey of residents, the local council noted.
