We simply loved staying steps away from Old Town Square and experiencing the history of this hotel. It felt like taking a step back in time. Only one bit - the breakfast was pretty basic. But the location outweighed that!

Amazing location.

The hotel is in the most perfect location. Walking distance to most attractions. We had plenty of space for 3 people. The front desk was kind enough to arrange a cab to take us to the train station. We really enjoyed our time and look forward to coming back

Lovely gothic style hotel, full of character. Lovely spacious room and bathroom. Big comfortable bed. Good buffet style breakfast and tasty schnitzel on the menu for dinner! Good friendly service. Perfectly located in a quieter part of the Old Town by the square. Would 100% stay again when next in Prague ❤️

It was a wonderful hotel right downtown. The breakfast was great and the employees were super nice. The shower was a bit of a challenge, but all in all, it was exactly what we expected.
