Hotel Lycium was erected in the heart of Eastern Hungary’s most dynamically developing city, Debrecen, as set in the direct vicinity of the Great Church and Déri Museum. The hotel itself is located in the unique business and conference complex of the region, the nearly sq m 13,000 Kölcsey Centre.

The name of the hotel originates from a rarity of nature – a plant that has grown into a tree: Lycium halimifolium. According to the anecdote, an ardent apostle of Reformation, Minister Bálint had an argument with the Catholic priest, Ambrosius. In the fever of the dispute, Ambrosius broke off a branch of lycium, and laughing he stuck it in the ground, and said: “It [Reformation] will become a religion when this branch has grow into a tree.” Indeed, it has grown into a tree, as the Reformed Church has also become the most prevailing religion in this city of Hungary.

Following this tradition, our aim is to see Hotel Lycium as one of the most flourishing hotels of domestic and international business life.
