Wonderful location, but average quality after that. The breakfast was average. Had to put towels on the floor in bathroom because of the half shower door: water got everywhere. We had a bad infestation of ants. You pay a lot and you get a little. The hotel is old and they only updated the bathrooms. Poor picture quality on the... More

On my second visit to Prague, my partner and I stayed in Charles Hotel and it was amazing. Everything from the more then helpful staff to the beautiful rooms. We didn't know that a buffet breakfast was included till we got there and it was a lively surprise! The buffet breakfast is delicious and such a great representation on Easter... More

Walk another block, and there's the metro station, walk a bit further and you're in Prague Castle. lots of restaurants nearby. perfect! at the reception/waiting area, there's a computer with free internet, as well as coffee and tea. there's also free wifi in the rooms, if...

we arrived at 12:30, but had to wait until 14:00 for the room, ok, it's the hotel's policy. they let us have the luggage stored there. parking costs somewhat 25- 30€ a day, so I just parked two tram stations away for free. the receptionist helped us carrying the stuff to the eleveator, but wrecked our umbrella- some part fell...

This hotel is just next to Charles bridge and is therefore very good value for money at 30€ pp for a double room. All the sightseeing is within walking distance and it is also very easy to go to the airport by public transport, which costs 32 Crowns per person (1€) as opposed to taxi that costs 27€ per taxi....

We arrived about 10pm in the evening & received a friendly welcome by the gentleman on reception who advised us which eateries were still open. We are quite happy with our first floor room & it was cosy, clean & quiet & had everything we needed, including good internet access. We stayed for 3 nights & I even became used... More

I couldnt belive when reading some tripadvisor opinions about an unfreandly treatment. I booked the room for my mum's birthday as a present, as she had never been in Prague before. The pictures of the hotel were extremely impressive. I reserved the accomodation just 2 days before the arrival. When we stepped in, the concierge was smiling and said without... More

We had two rooms on the third floor of this hotel and I just loved the decoration and cozy feel of both of them. They were impeccably clean and had all we needed including tea making facilities. It was a pity there wasn't a stand-up shower, but the general niceness of the bathroom and room made up for that. Breakfast... More

We stayed at this hotel in one of the rooms on the top floor. The room was in a converted attic, super spacy, very cosy and if you lean outside the window, you could actually see the Charles Bridge down the street, which means that the location of this hotel is extremelly good, right inbetween Prague old center and Prague's...
