The thermostat controlled the temperature very accurately, but the cool air blows directly at the bed, which can make it feel pretty drafty. The bed was very comfortable. There were sometimes some food smells from the first floor restaurant. The ventilation fan in the bathroom is very weak, so the smells linger...

It’s a lovely little hotel but can’t give it 4 stars because my room had unsatisfactory blockout from morning light. The bathroom door is heavy frosted glass as is the bathroom window directly opposite and far too much light comes in. Wouldn’t be a problem outside of summer. The room is quite small and I don’t see that there would be space for two suitcases.

We got there well before check in time to see if we could leave our luggage there and the lady on the counter just gave us one of the two rooms we booked so we could rest a bit before the second one was ready. The place was extremely clean and well organized, beds were super comfortable. This place is definitely five stars. Also the breakfast was delicious.

Solo Travel

it was a an overall good stay great location convenient to many historic areas astronomical clock, old town square, powder tower, and municipal house. Only complaint is I had a fall in the bathroom and called the front desk for ice and no one answered stated they have 24 hr front desk service. I’m glad I didn’t require any real assistance. Perfect for solo travelers.

Great experience with this hotel

I cannot say enough good things about this hotel. Everything was perfect. Adam at the front desk was very happy to help us and the check in was great! The breakfast buffet was added awesome bonus. I highly recommend this hotel when visiting Prague.
