“Very good hotel for exploring Prague, but…..”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 July 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed in this hotel for three nights in the mid of July. This small hotel has a nice, warm and luxury atmosphere. It’s situated in a quiet living area of Prague. From the hotel it’s only 15 minutes by bus (number 133, 24 Czech Koruna / 1 Euro for a one way ticket) from the very touristy city centre. They offer guarded parking which is a big plus when you arrive by car.

Staff at the front desk was extremely friendly and helpful. They gave us a room on the third floor at the backside of the hotel. The room was quite large and had a good styling. The bathroom had all the comfort you can whish. But, we booked this hotel because they have air-conditioned rooms. When we first came in the room it was very warm and air conditioning was off. There was no way to put it on. When we asked at the reception they gave us the remote control of the air-conditioning. We never experienced this before. This remote control should always be in the room, and not only after asking for.

Breakfast was served in their winter garden at the back side of the hotel. It’s not a very special breakfast but it’s more than enough for a small hotel like this. The hotel offers free WIFI in the lobby which was a big plus for us.

We had some problems with the payment when we left. We booked our room for 70,00 Euro per night (breakfast included) using their own website. When we checked out the girl at the reception didn’t allow us to pay by creditcard in Euros, even when we booked and guaranteed our room in Euros. She said we had to pay in Czech Koruna, which made our stay about 6% more expensive. After a lot of discussion suddenly she came up with an other creditcard machine which accepted Euros. We didn’t like this at all. It felt like an attempt to earn some extra money.

Because of the problems with the remote control of the air-conditioning and the payment we give this hotel only 4 stars, otherwise we would have rated it with 5 stars.

“Beautiful design hotel in a quiet area”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 June 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed in this hotel for a few nights. The hotel was tastefully decorated in a modern fashion and one can't complain housekeeping doesn't do its job. The entire hotel is spotless! The rooms are spacious with high ceilings and airconditioning.
The bathroom is the best part of the hotel room - really modern with high-end details. The rooms have a minibar and personal safe. There is wifi in the hotel lobby, otherwise you can borrow an ethernet cable cord to your room. The hotel is smoke-free; probably not that common in Prague where you're allowed to smoke almost everywhere.

Breakfast is served in the winter garden and has a wide selection to choose from. The staff is helpful and speak English. As the location of the hotel is a little outside the city center, the hotel is quiet. It's easy to get into the city center. It takes about 10-15 minutes by bus (number 133) and costs 18 CZK (less than 1 euro). There are also a number of restaurants in the vincinity.

The only negative thing about the hotel is that the mattresses are a little on the harder side, but you get used to it.

If you appreciate a design hotel for a good price in a quiet location, this is definitely the hotel for you.
