Good stay with nice staff and the hotel. The price was good for the service, that we’ve got. Breakfasts were really nice and delicious. The rooms are clean NO air conditioning, but at the reception you can get free cold water and in the room we’ve had a ventilator.

My wife and I stayed here for three nights, on the final leg of our mini European tour.
The hotel is located in the Karlin district of Prague.
We arrived at the main railway station, and being unsure of the transport system, decided to walk to the hotel, which was just slightly over a mile.
First impressions when reaching the hotel were Oh, hmm, okay. Not a grand entrance by any means of the imagination. Upon entering the small hallway, the rather small reception was on the left. Check in was quick and simple, and everything very well explained to us by Sonia (we spoke with a few members of staff during our stay who to be fair were all helpful, but I’ve got to say here that if you encounter Sonia, in our opinion, she was ahead of the rest). We were allocated room 32 which was on the 3rd floor. The lift being just round the corner from reception. Geezo, this was a bit of a shock, it looked like something out of the ark! A pull out door to enter and a secondary sliding door. Maximum of 3 people. Surrounded by a metal mesh type cage, camouflaged by artwork. Room was fairly spacious but very dated. Obviously had been upgraded over the years but even so still had that old look and feel about it. Have to say in their defence that it was clean though, and the beds were fairly comfortable. Flat screen TV, and hairdryer in the en-suite bathroom. There were no tea or coffee making facilities, however, there was a jug of water, and glasses. We actually ended up being fortunate as this was one of the very few rooms with a small outside balcony with a table and a couple of chairs. Balcony overlooked the front and there was an ashtray which is handy if you are a smoker. No smoking permitted in the bedroom.
Deafening and noise proofing wasn’t the best.
Breakfast did surprise us though, and in a good way. Pleasant dining room, albeit not too large. A huge choice for breakfast, some of which included boiled eggs, sometimes fried eggs, sometimes scrambled egg. The hot selection did vary. Continental rolls, bread, preserves, yoghurt, fruit type cocktail, and desserts of various descriptions, as well as fruit juice, and coffee.
The old town of Prague is within walking distance of the hotel and we would estimate the distance to be just slightly over a mile. Numerous eateries and small corner type shops nearby

I have stayed here for the business trip. The location was really great. 100 meters from metro station and 5 minutes away from my office. The room was small, but not hot. The ventilator was helpful and free ice water was great way of hospitality as well

I stayed with my wife and we booked this hotel as it said that it's a three star property. To my surprise we were alloted a room which had the toilet and bathroom outside the room. The toilet and bathroom had access to another room also. That's two guests from two rooms are supposed to use one toilet and one bathroom. I've never seen something like this anywhere.

My family and I spent 4 nights at the Charles Central Hotel. Overall, we found the experience very good. The hotel is ideally located 1 min from the metro station, which can take you to the Old Town in literally 5 minutes (2 stops way) and for £1 or £2 (kids do not pay). There are also plenty of places to eat around the hotel. The room is not very modern but very spacious and comfortable. The breakfast is much better than the one offer by hotels like the Holiday Inn, Travel Lodge, etc. in the UK. The staff were very nice and helpful all the time. The internet is very fast, easy to connect and reliable. This hotel offers excellent value for money. We would definitely stay at the Charles Central Hotel next time we visit Prague.

The room was clean enough. The reception was really helpful and kind, they did their best to resolve our problems. İt was 30 min walking distance to Old Town, also there is a metro right at the door. The location is really good.

İt would be better if there were AC. The street was loud so when we opened the windows to cool down the room it got too noisy that we couldn't sleep.

The wifi connection was bad, leave aside doing bussiness or WhatsApp calls, even a single whatapp message took minutes to send. İt was not even enough to view my instagram stories and googling something took around 5mins.

The staff at the restaurant was kinda rude to us. The breakfast was between 7am-11am an when we went to breakfast at 10am they didn't refill any of the plates, most of them was empty, they didn't even answer or smile when we said good morning and when we get up from the breakfast at 10.30am one of them said "yadaaa!" with a happy voice after we get out of the restaurant room. (Because we were the last ones to get to the restaurant. İf you go to breakfast early you won't face this problem. When we went earlier next they, they were kind, they refilled all of the plates and there were more kind of stuff we could eat)

İ would recommend if you're on a budget and need someplace with good logistics. I don't recommend if you're looking for a comfy and luxurius stay.

Overall, good experience, however, there are some things to note. Whilst the bathroom was clean, the overall room was very dated. Towels were replaced everyday. Breakfast was very average and often cold. The hotel was generally very quiet and you could only hear a small amount of noise from outside. The location of the hotel, was our reason for staying. We found some staff members, such as Sonia, to be very helpful, but for others to be not as helpful. In the room, there was no fridge, kettle or telephone to reception, so it was very basic. The room size surpassed our expectations, but this did not make up for the other factors. The room door lock was also quite questionable, and did not have a peep hole.

Our family had an incredible stay at **Charles Central Hotel** in Prague! From the moment we arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist. The location is perfect—just steps away from the metro station, making it easy to explore the city’s main attractions like Old Town and Prague Castle. We traveled with two young children, and the hotel staff went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable.
The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-maintained, with modern decor that added to the cozy ambiance. We particularly enjoyed the breakfast buffet.

What really stood out to us was the excellent service. The staff gave us great local recommendations and even helped organize a day trip outside of Prague. We felt completely at ease and cared for throughout our stay.

I highly recommend **Charles Central Hotel** to families looking for a convenient, comfortable, and affordable place to stay in Prague. We will definitely be returning on our next trip to this beautiful city!

The hotel was minimal but clean on comfortable which is all we needed for our stay as we were not here much.

It’s in a great location with the local transport easily accessible, many shops and restaurants on the doorstep, and also a pharmacy right outside too.

Overall this hotel was what we expected and all we needed truly serving its purpose.

Thanks for having us.
