We arrived by train and figured out right away that we needed to take a bus to city central. The ride in was great. You see the city appear as you move closer to the city. We found our way to the hotel and were very happy upon our entry. The hotel was great. It is set up kind of like a formal B & B with a set of winding hallways to the rooms. We had a great room with a double doorway system. The room was nice and it was facing, not directly, but our window was on the bar/restaurant side. (I would recommend that you choose a room no on the bar side.) We did have to call at 11pm. to ask why there were people in the bar, drinking, and making noise when we were told the bar closed at 10 pm. The problem got resolved but tainted the stay and this review.) The location is centrally located and the staff was friendly. The breakfast was excellent and the choice plentiful.

If I were to return to Vesprem I would stay here again, I would just know to choose a different room location.

Just below the main part of the old town and all of the sights the top choice by many guides is Hotel olive. Hard to find, need gps or a good detail map, street off the beginning of old town looks like an alley, but has parking, both off lobby, which was filled, and above it for it's restaurant. Parked above when arrived, after check in staff climbed 3 flights of stairs, brought car down to unload and re-parked above, and retrieved in the morning to load. Great service. Restaurant had great choices and is probably the best in town. Not cheap but good with again great service. 100 ft up from front to 30 stairs and up tot old town with all the sights

The Oliva is a super clean hotel with a great layout that allows for singles traveling together to share the bathroom at the same time. Shower had great pressure and the windows open which allows for fresh air. Breakfast provided was simple but offered a great variety.
