Welcome to Pecs Rentals
Hassan Jakovali's mosque in Pecs
Pécs was founded as Sopianae 2000 years ago by the Romans. Today, it ss a pleasant small university town that has largely escaped the ravages of both communist-era architecture and modern-day mass tourism. In 2000, the Early Christian Necropolis of Pécs was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. It is one of the European Capitals of Culture in 2010.
Travel to Pécs
By train: There are frequent trains to Pécs from Budapest's Déli or Keleti station
There is also a daily, daylight-hours train to/from Osijek in Croatia and Sarajevo in Bosnia, and a daily train to the city from Vienna.
By bus: Numerous buses from all directions (including from cities in northern Croatia) serve the city. Buses to Budapest's Nepliget station operate numerous times daily, though the trip is slower than the train, and far less scenic or comfortable.
By plane: Pécs Airport opened in 2006 and currently there are year-round flights to Corfu in Greece. There are no timetabled, domestic flights operating in Hungary at present.
Popular tourist sights:
- Early Christian monuments: A must for anyone visiting Pecs is the 4th c. early Christian necropolis. Several of the excavated, underground burial chambers and chapels have been connected to make it a complex under the name Cella Septichora
- Mosque Church: Széchenyi tér. Formerly the Pasha Gazi Kassim Mosque, this Ottoman-era mosque was converted into a Catholic church by the simple expedient of hanging a crucified Jesus above the mihrab
- The Cathedral (Székesegyház): The most important, largest and beautiful religious building in the area.
- Television tower. Open for visitors; provides a nice panorama on the city, on the neighbouring Mecsek Mountains, and on the hills in the south.
- Vasarely Museum, dedicated to the works of Victor Vasarely, founder of op-art.
- Csontváry Museum, a museum featuring the paintings of Tivadar Csontváry Kosztka, a visionary painter from the early 20th century.
In order to help visitors enjoy their stay in Pecs, we have available a number of self-catering apartments close to and around the city centre. For a relatively modest fee, you can stay at any of our self-contained and well-furnished apartments from periods ranging from just a day to several weeks - as the fancy catches you.
Our apartments cater for numbers ranging from single visitors up to groups of seven. All you need to do is search for suitable and available properties (see the reservation box on the left), select and book an apartment, and our representative will be waiting for you at the apartment with the keys to the door.
