At the time, the building held one of the country‘s finest and most complete medical libraries and rubbed shoulders with the Hungarian parliament before it was relocated to its current situs. The building survived the ravages of the Second World War, the Hungarian uprising of 1956 (that started at the Hungarian radio station a few doors down Brody Sandor street) and the fifty years of neglect and poor maintenance that followed. Prior to its conversion into a boutique hôtel in 2009, founders William Clothier and Peter Grundberg resided in the property, along with their artist friends, hosting cultural salons and dinner parties. They named the house after Hungarian writer, Sandor Brody, and ‘his’ street at which the house is sited. the birth of brody house Brody House remains a work in progress, undergoing various loving restorations since its inception in 2009.
