Hotel Royal Esprit is an inexpensive hotel with a good location in the Old Town of Prague. The staff was very friendly and assisting when asked about directions around the city. The room was quite large and clean. The room didn't have a safety deposit box but we kept our valuables in a locked suitcase which didn't get burglared or stolen while it was in the room. Only negative thing was that the receptionist refused to call us an AAA taxi, they only get you their own taxis. We would've gotten a 47% discount using AAA taxi but we didn't benefit since the hotel would not call us a cab from that company. The bathroom lacked a shower curtain so the floor got very wet after taking a shower in the bathtub. There wasn't a sewer either so the water stayed on the floor until it dried by heat. The TV was a disappointment, only one channel had English programs and that was Eurosport. I know you don't go abroad to watch television, but to get the news and weather in English would've been great. Their website said there would be an internet connection but I didn't see a RJ45 jack in the room and there wasn't a WiFi either. The pillows were uncomfortable, my neck was really sore after sleeping three nights there. All in all, given the great location, cheap price and good service I recommend this hotel to all Prague visitors.
