THE CERNY SLON IS AN EXCELLENT HOTEL

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Dec 15, 2015
A few years ago we ate at the Cerny Slon and we were so impressed that we came back and stayed here for the weekend for my husband's 60th Birthday last weekend.
The hotel is in a brilliant location just off the main square. We emailed the hotel a few days before and requested 1st floor rooms as someone in our party was having a few health problems and our request was met. The rooms were lovely and spacious and comfortable with paintings on the ceiling. The breakfasts were very good with plenty of choice for everyone. We ate twice in the hotel on an evening and the food was top notch. All the staff from the bar and restaurant and reception and the cleaning lady were so helpful and friendly. The hotel is beautiful and so full of character. I can highly recommend this hotel and my husband had a fantastic birthday weekend here. We have been to Prague many times and this has to be the best hotel by far. Will definitely be back again very soon. Thank you to one and all. Merry Christmas.
Date of stay: December 2015
Room Tip: There are 23 steps to the first floor rooms which were excellent.

Charming traditional hotel in a fabulous location. Friendly helpful staff, clean comfortable rooms with loads of character. Close to the old town square but really quiet. Highly recommend this hotel. Good food served in great surroundings

Reviewed December 5, 2015

We stayed here a few years ago and the place is just as good as it was then. Ideally placed in the heart of Stare Mesto and a few steps from the Square it really is great value for money. We especially chose the large attic room as we liked it the last time, but for those who require a lift beware that there isn't one. It's a listed building and they are restricted to what renovations they can make so therefore has only stairs but we were already aware of this and it didn't bother us at all. The whole ambience of the hotel is 'traditional Czech' and for those wishing to enjoy the Old Town it's situation first class. Food is excellent and reasonably priced. Hot & cold buffet breakfast has an extensive choice. A great little hotel and we would most definitely return.

Room tip: If you are happy to walk up 3 flights of stairs the a triple room is recommended and still reasonably priced for only 2 people.

Perfectly situated one block away from the main square. A little noisy neighbourhood but no more than expected. Rooms on first floor have beautiful paintings on the ceilings. Breakfast was included but very uninspired and generic.

You can't argue with the location, only steps away from the old town square and astronomical clock, right next door to Our Lady of Tyn church and only half a block from the excellent vegetarian restaurant Maitreya. As many people note, there is no elevator, which is mostly only an issue if you have a lot of luggage. The staff seems somewhat disinterested and uninvolved, though breakfast is fine and room clean.

Have been coming here for nearly 20 years.The family Volejnik's are hands on and are always there for you.
The Hotel is in a 13th century building and is about 25 meters from the Old Town square where you find the famous old clock Orloj.
The restaurant's Czech cuisine is great for lunch or dinner with a cute small bar and a cellar for special occasions that has a glass view of Prague's 1000 year old street.
The hotel has finally received permission to install an elevator which will be warmly received by the guests who have been returning year after year.
