The hotel staff was exceptionally nice and professional. The room is nice and clean. And the location of the hotel is just perfect, literally 50 meters from the Old Town Square.
Fantastic location! Nice, clean room and spacious bathroom. Triple room was perfect for our family of 3.

Great location: in the center of old town 20” walk to all attractions: Charles Bridge; churches; shopping, restaurants. Hotel room was spacious & clean; good price for the staying; friendly staffs. Didn’t eat at the hotel restaurant but seeing a lot people dining there.
The perfect spot to explore Prague. Right in the heart of the old town square, a five minute walk from Charles Bridge, no complaints here. Very helpful staff, comfortable room with excellent amenities. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.
Wonderful stay in historic and convenient location. The room was comfortable and clean, staff was friendly and welcoming. Only thing to be aware of is to step into the shower it is a tall step, may be difficult for short travelers.
