Visitors of the György Ráth Villa passed through the vestibule into a small entrance hall with white painted paneling and a staircase. A decorative Art Nouveau frieze runs along the top part of the wall and above the wallpapered door to the picture gallery. Like the wrought iron works in the Hungarian Royal Palace in Buda, the Hungarian House of Parliament and the Budapest Opera House, the Art Nouveau balustrade of the staircase was made in Gyula Jungfer's factory. Large decorative dishware from the East made the otherwise understated entrance room special.
