Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were large and spacious, furnished beautifully, and full of character while still being practical. The location was excellent with plenty of restaurants, cafes, and shops nearby, and the stained glass windows and painted beamed ceilings added a special touch to the room. The service was top-notch, with the staff being very helpful and welcoming. The dining experience was good, with a varied breakfast and self-service options available. I did find the lack of some healthy options a small downside, but overall, a wonderful experience.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were very spacious and pretty, with a small sofa, two comfy chairs, a TV, fridge, and even snacks for purchase at a reasonable price. However, it tended to get quite hot in the evenings during the summer. The rooms were impressively big, divided into a bedroom and lobby with a door, offering a sense of privacy and comfort.
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms felt more like a cozy suite than just a bedroom, complete with stained glass windows and all the necessary amenities. The central location was fantastic, although the low ceiling on one side of the bed and the inconveniently draped curtains were a bit of a drawback.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were large and spacious but uncomfortably warm at night due to the lack of air-conditioning. The service was exceptional, with very helpful and friendly staff ready to assist with anything we needed. The location, just steps away from the castle complex and in the heart of old town Prague, was both convenient and picturesque. The dining options were decent but not exceptional. Overall, it was a stay with its ups and downs, but the friendly service and prime location made it worthwhile.
Staying at this hotel felt like being in an old tavern or castle with unique and cool rooms. The downside was the lack of natural light due to the sloping ceilings and stained glass windows. The service was very pleasant, with little touches like pre-made toast and welcome trinkets. The location was perfect, nestled in a quiet area yet close to major attractions like Prague Castle. The dining experience was self-service with a good selection but lacked excellence. The facilities overall were superb. Remarkable features included the old-fashioned room design and pleasant service.
