Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel provided very spacious and beautifully designed rooms with comfortable seating areas but somewhat limited space. The superb service exceeded expectations with assistance ranging from tram tickets to currency exchange. The location offered beautiful views but was a bit challenging to locate. Dining options were varied and enjoyable. Overall, a great value for the amenities provided.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were like lofts more than apartments, with armchairs, a couch, desk, fridge, and joy of joys, plug sockets by the beds. My room was spacious and even opened into a garden, which was a pleasant surprise. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond, especially Adam who was very personable. The location was excellent, exactly what I wanted - in a quiet part of town with easy access to tram and bus stops, away from the busy center. The dining experience was delightful, well-served and varied, especially enjoyed in their garden. Overall, a great value for money stay with fantastic amenities.
The hotel provides a cozy and well-equipped stay with tastefully decorated, clean, and quiet rooms. The staff is incredibly nice and helpful, making the overall experience pleasant. The location offers stunning views and is very close to the city center, enhancing convenience. The dining experience is above par, offering delicious options, while the facilities are fantastic for a relaxing stay.
I truly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The rooms were small but cozy, offering everything we needed and a lovely view. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff. The location was charming, not too far from the tourist areas but still peaceful. Dining was a pleasant experience with nice coffee and tea available round the clock. Overall, a great value for the money.
Staying at the hotel was a revelation; the rooms were very clean and very nice, offering a mezzanine floor for extra privacy, although access might be challenging for those with mobility difficulties due to steep stairs. The service was fantastic, with super friendly and helpful staff that assisted with various needs like tram tickets, food advice, and more. The location, being in a former monastery on top of a hill with spectacular views of Prague, was perfect for our stay. The dining experience was more than adequate with a well-cared-for buffet and delicious offerings.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms were large, spacious & very comfortable with all the facilities you might expect. The top-quality room had a comfortable bed, was clean, had a good shower, and excellent wifi. The staff was extremely nice, flexible, and knowledgeable. The location was great, close to the Charles Bridge but still quiet. The dining experience was superb with a good range of delicious food. Overall, a top-notch experience with great value for money!
