Motorhome

Available for hire all year round

Do you know what it’s like to wake up and feel at home, no matter where you are in the world? The Grand Hotel California gifts you with the true freedom of vanlife, without having to compromise on comfort.

Overview

Imagine starting every morning with a new adventure! With the Grand Hotel California campervan, you can all become real explorers: in the morning, you’ll have breakfast in the middle of the forest, by afternoon you’ll be relaxing by a lakeside, and in the evening, you’ll be stargazing in the mountains. Many of us fondly remember childhood camping trips—traveling by campervan is a new, more comfortable version of that. This luxurious Volkswagen camper is not only a “hotel on wheels” but also a true adventure base for kids. Every stop offers new opportunities to hike, make a campfire, or even build a dam along the stream banks. And the best part? You get to decide where the next adventure continues.

Details

Absolute convenience, an interior designed for maximum comfort, and modern technology built on the reliable Crafter platform. Instead of spending time checking in and out of hotels and packing, you can enjoy the ever-changing scenery in a familiar environment. In our experience, these shared adventures become cherished family memories, as camper traveling is the most exciting type of vacation for children: the constantly changing surroundings always ensure new discoveries. The Grand Hotel California is available for rent in Hungary exclusively through GoBeyond.

Almost 7 metres long, with a bright, airy floor plan, lots of windows, and endless storage space. The comforts of home in a motorhome that comfortably accommodates two adults and two small children, yet can easily travel 800 km between nights. And since it doesn’t qualify as a motorhome, you can park it in the main square of an Italian town, within easy reach of freshly baked pastries and coffee in the morning.

Diesel engine (177LE) 8-speed automatic transmission, Airbags, ISOFIX, Front and Rear Park Assist, satellite system, GPS, sound system, ABS, EBA, ESP, Cruise Control, Traffic Detection, Lane Departure Warning, Crosswind Assist

The bathroom is equipped with a toilet, a shower, and a sink, so you’ll find everything you need to freshen up on the go or start your day in the morning. In the summer, if you want to shower after a day at the beach or after a hike, the outdoor shower with hot water, accessible from the back of the vehicle, is the best option. Don’t worry about the humidity, the ventilation system allows the steam to escape immediately, and if you want to shower at night, the motion-controlled lighting will turn on as soon as you enter the car.

Camp like never before! Everything in the camper can be controlled and monitored via a central touch screen: Lights, water, and even the charge level of the secondary battery. The perfect temperature is ensured by the dual-fuel heating system, which is fed directly from the fuel tank. For maximum comfort, the roof is equipped with a stationary cooling system (which works when connected to the mains) and a solar panel system for automatic charging.

    FAQ

    If you rent for more than a month, the rental covers 3500 km. For less than that, 300 km per day is included in the rental. If you drive more than that, you can buy extra kilometers for €0.25.

    The vehicle must not be used in an area where there is an incident, disturbance, natural disaster, war situation, etc., which could endanger the safety of the vehicle.

    Before you carry out any repairs or maintenance on your vehicle, please contact us! Unauthorised repairs will be considered a breach of contract and the full amount of the deposit will be deducted. You are fully liable for any damage resulting from improper repairs.

    Contact us and we will make arrangements to get help to you as soon as possible.

    Yes, the van has its own router, but you will need to bring your own sim card with you, which has data services that are valid in the countries you are visiting. If you already have a router, you can bring that too, the van has a socket for it.

    The campervan can seat up to 4 people. There is a 170 x 200 double bed in the back and a cot under the bed. Ideal for two adults and a small child.

    This type of travel can be enjoyable with children of any age. The program options are nearly limitless, so the itinerary and stops can be adjusted to suit the needs of both the child and the family. For slightly older children, traveling by campervan is an adventure in itself.

    Yes, please prepare your own child seat adapted to the size of your child. The vehicle has ISOFIX attachment points, so the child seat can be securely attached.

    Two seats can fit side by side. If you plan to travel with four people, we recommend bringing an extra tent to ensure a comfortable sleeping arrangement at night.

    The camper van is equipped with plastic dishes and cutlery, but you may want to bring a high chair if needed.

    Of course, you can, but you should check with us first so that you don't bring two of everything.

    It’s recommended to pack comfortable, layered clothing for children so they can adjust to changing weather conditions. Bring easy-to-wash clothes, comfortable shoes, rain boots, and water shoes. For sleeping, a favorite blanket, pillow, or toy can be comforting. A small backpack may also be useful for kids to carry their favorite items. Additionally, consider bringing cards, coloring books, regular books, and compact, simple toys. Don’t forget practical items like a water bottle, snack box, essential medications, sunscreen, and mosquito repellent.

    Of course! The campervan has a dual-fuel heating system that runs directly from the fuel tank. When connected to the mains, the roof-mounted air conditioning ensures the perfect temperature in the van on even the hottest days. Below 0 degrees, the vehicle must be dehumidified, so the wet functions cannot be used.

    Unfortunately, pets are not allowed in the Grand Hotel California.
