We wouldn’t just perk up at these words in a car ad, but they apply just as well to parking. Paying for parking is one of those unavoidable expenses we’d rather not deal with. What's more, there’s often a direct correlation between the difficulty of finding a parking spot and the price you end up paying – the busier the area, the higher the parking fee.
However, there are clever ways drivers can take advantage of affordable parking in Budapest!
There’s a common stereotype about car parks, suggesting they are dark, cramped places where it’s difficult to manoeuvre and more expensive than street parking. We want to dispel those doubts and introduce you to some top-notch parking facilities where you won't have to worry about any of that!
City Centre
Let’s dive right into the heart of the city: parking around Király Street has never been easy, and with recent changes to traffic regulations, it's become an even bigger challenge. Luckily, there’s a car park nearby that not only saves you from circling around but can be used at a discounted rate with the Parkl app – just 350 HUF/hour. This is one of the best options for affordable parking in Budapest.

Would you have guessed that in one of the busiest parts of the city, in streets near the boulevard like Akácfa or Kertész, you can find numerous parking options where you can park more affordably and with better chances of securing a safe spot in an underground or multi-storey car park? Most of the discounted rates are only available through the Parkl app, offering more opportunities for affordable parking in Budapest.
