Kamarás Ring House, F1-themed guesthouse by the Hungaroring
Kamarás Ring House is a small guesthouse in Mogyoród, in Pest county, with rooms styled after Formula 1, a wine cellar and views over the Hungaroring. It's a fun pick for race fans and for anyone after a quiet, friendly base, though race weekends get busy and it's worth booking early.

Where Kamarás Ring House is and how to get there
Kamarás Ring House is in Mogyoród, in Pest county, on Vízipark utca. Guests say the house looks straight out onto the Hungaroring, the Formula 1 circuit, so the location is the whole point. The listing adds that it is easy to reach from the main roads of Mogyoród, with local services and public transport nearby.
Most people who write about it came by car or motorhome. On the race Sunday, one reviewer says the inner yard filled up with parked cars, but not so many that getting out was a problem. Outside race weekends, the area is described as quiet, good for short walks and rest.
What the house and rooms are like
This is a small, original guesthouse with a wine cellar and rooms designed with a Formula 1 theme. Guests call the interior interesting and cosy, and the listing describes the rooms as simple and clean.
Two details come up again and again. One is the view over the track, with a sunset that one guest calls not to be missed. The other is the host, who speaks English and German as well as Hungarian, according to one guest, and who is described as a big Ferrari fan. Unlimited coffee is also singled out as a nice touch.
What guests say about Kamarás Ring House
On Google it scores 4.6 out of 5 from 23 reviews, and almost all the longer ones are very positive.
- The theme. Several guests love the Formula 1 style and call it original and fun, especially around the Grand Prix.
- The host. Friendly, welcoming and helpful, say many reviewers, and some came back or stayed in touch.
- The setting. Besides the circuit view, a few people mention a calm, green place for people who like nature.
- The coffee. Free, unlimited, and noticed by more than one guest.
- The language. Guests who do not speak Hungarian say they got by easily in English.
Race weekends and camping on the grounds
A few reviewers stayed here for the Hungarian Grand Prix, some in a motorhome or tent on the grounds. They mention electricity, a toilet, showers and a washing-up area, but one guest says these feel like temporary solutions. Rows of identical tents also suggest they may be rented out, though that is a guess from a guest and not something I can confirm.
The same reviewer says the place was almost empty on Friday morning and filled up during the day. So expect crowds and noise if you come when the circuit is busy, and book as early as you can.
What to know before you book
The picture is very good, but I would check a few things first.
| What guests like | What to check |
|---|---|
| Formula 1 theme and track view | It is at its best, and busiest, on Grand Prix weekends |
| Friendly host and free coffee | Two guests left one-star reviews with no explanation, one calling the stay unwelcoming and rude |
| Quiet, green setting | One guest was not sure how often the place is open, so confirm dates |
| Camping on the grounds | Facilities look basic and temporary |
I do not have prices or details on breakfast, so the booking button on this page is the place to check current rates.
Who it suits
I would choose Kamarás Ring House if you are going to a race and want somewhere with character, a view of the track and a host who clearly shares the passion. It also works for a short stay if you like simple, friendly places more than polished hotels.
I would look elsewhere if you need a very predictable service, or if you are after the city. There is little in the guest reports about anything beyond the circuit and the house itself.
Passionate about travel and about the kind of places that turn a getaway into something unforgettable. I love writing about hotels, country houses and charming hideaways, helping every traveller find the perfect place to rest and feel at home.
