Too expensive over New Year’s Eve
Awfully expensive for what the room looked like. 4 star price in a 2 star hotel. There were other guests in the hotel playing loud music, luckily far enough from our room so we got the chance to sleep well. Sorry guys, maybe this was an exception with the price and all, but not booking again. Staff was ok, friendly, tiny breakfast offered in the morning, but that’s it.

When we arrived we was approached by a man working at reception he was very rude and said we had to pay 500 Czech Coruna For city tax which the website stated it was only 200 when we asked him about this he said that the prices changed yesterday which we found hard to believe the next following days we was dealt with another man who was a bit politer but couldn’t put a smile on his face, on the last day before we left we went to check out and was told we didn’t needed to pay the hotel accommodation which we paid on the first day This was very odd because I’ve never been to a hotel which would even let you pay on the last day anyway he made us show him loads of evidence that we have paid and we just thought it was very odd as this was the same man that asks for the 500 and we felt like he was just keeping it to himself, we didn’t even get an apology afterwards all he told us was okay then and then pointed towards the door we found our stay at this particular EA hotel very unaccommodating

Unpleasant stay
I would never recommend this hotel to anyone . When I arrived to the hotel I noticed the sheets had stains and holes in them as if they have never been changed. The bathroom was unclean and it looked like black mold was growing in the shower . I notified the front desk about it . They said they would take care of it . Came back to the room after dinner and the problem wasn’t fixed so I asked for a new room but they were booked .. i will never let my friends book a hotel for me again . One of the worst hotels

I was given a single room when I booked a double as there was nothing else left, reception staff did manage to find me a room and did what they could. There was no toilet roll, basic hotel, good breakfast. Cheap hotel so expected

Not bad for a cheap hotel
the room was on the road side ground level so very noisy, wifi did not work well in the room, cheap hotel so you get what you pay for and for the price I paid it was ok. Shower was great and plenty of hot water, bus stop outside hotel which was 10 mins to Florenc, so a good budget hotel, supermarket 3 mins walk, nothing else close no frills hotel then this hotel is ok. Breakfast was very good.

The staff make this hotel what it is.
The hotel is quiet and clean, a bit outside the main city centre, but the transport was cheap and quick (a bus to Florenc only 60p one way, and there in 12mins!). The staff were what made this hotel so nice.

Great breakfast,good service and good rooms.
The room was clean and accommodating especially considering the amount we paid per day. Breakfast was also some of the best we have had in Europe so far. More than just bread, cheese, and meat which was great! Also, the front desk attendants were very helpful with directions for the trams.

Good Business Hotel Outside the City Center
This appeared to be a business hotel, as there was a small conference center adjacent to the main building hosting various meetings during my time there. As a result, the staff were more professional and friendlier than I expected, especially since their first language wasn't English and the staff at tourist sites around Prague weren't as friendly to foreigners. The room was clean and comfortable, although I got a room on the first floor of a secondary building in behind the main complex, so there was a bit of traffic noise and I could hear the guests above me walking across their room. The doors to my room also felt old, such that anyone could easily break into my room if they wanted, but this felt unlikely. The breakfast buffet was excellent. The lower price compared to most hotels is likely due to location; as the hotel is further out from the city center and there was only a gas station nearby (although it was convenient for buying a sandwich late at night).

Mixed feelings..
We were looking for a basic hotel which we did find, the rooms and bathroom were really clean although the shower was oddly placed so it is a bit unavoidable to get the whole bathroom wet.. The staff was not very friendly and super slow on check in, although we found that in general Czechs were not friendly overall. We only found out on the last night that there was a bar at reception although for some reason it was not in use and we were not allowed to fill in our water bottles from the water dispenser at the breakfast restaurant. (There was no water available on the room) Rooms were really quiet, we never heard any noise from next door neighbours even though they had kids and we had a internal connecting door (which was locked obviously). Breakfast was basic with not a lot of options but was really tasty every time! If you're using public transport you need to take a bus or walk to the nearest metro station (5 min on bus or 15 min walking) the metro leaves you directly at the centre within 7 minutes and works until midnight. Usually took us between 25-30 min to commute.

Nice hotel in quiet part of Praha. Clean rooms, warm. Staff not so friendly, but ok. Breakfast simple but Tasty. Parking a little bit small. If I come next time in Prague, I would probably stay there again. I recommend (4 that money)!!!

Thank you for your sincere review!I am so sorry you had this experience with us! I wish we could host you again to show you how great the stay can be!There is no problem getting new bed linen since there is a hotel room service. They change the bed linen every three days.

Teşekkürler Peter
Otel Prag merkeze biraz uzak ama toplu taşıma araçlarına erişim çok kolay hemen önünde otobüs durağı var. Odalar temiz fakat buzdolabı olmaması yaz için kötü. Resepsiyona söleyince orada bulunan dolaba malzemelerinizi koyabiliyorsunuz. Ferah bir avlusu var oturmak için. Resepsiyonda 3 görevli dönüşümlü çalışıyor. Ailece favorimiz Peter bey . Çok ilgili sıcakkanlı, yardımsever teşekkürler Peter. Bize Türkçe teşekkür etmek nasıl söyleniyor dedi ve her seferinde elimizi sıkıp teşekkür dedi.

Una Horrible Experiencia
Es el Peor hotel que estado. La atención como en la mayoria de la ciudad de instancia es pésima, un mal ambiente, mala cara, ni saludan es lo peor NO RECOMIENDO PERDER LA PLATA VISITANDO ESA CIUDAD NI MUCHO MENOS ESE HOTEL SI ES QUE SE LE PUEDE LLAMAR ASI, ES UN HOSTAL BARATO Y FEO PARA LLAMARSE HOTEL, la cama horrible, comida medio fría y fea. Y sobretodo insisto la mala atención desde el principio de la llegada fue horrible detestable todo su personal no saben ni saludar solo hacer mala cara es lo peor en qué he estado.

Wouldn’t recommend to anyone
The hotel looked closed when we arrived, and our hotel room was dirty. The walls were very thin, and we could hear EVERYTHING our neighbors did (like opening a can) Breakfast wasn’t vert good and there was no hand sanatizer available . Overall the hotel just looked a bit rundown and dirty. The only good thing, was the friendly staff, at the reception at arrival and check out
