–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Facilities score is lower than average — The facilities rating is 6.5, the lowest category, suggesting the amenities may feel dated or limited to some guests.
- Compact rooms — Several reviewers note the rooms are small, which may feel tight for some guests even if they didn't mind it.
- Pool comes at a charge — One guest notes the pool has a small extra fee, which may be unexpected.
- Area may feel off-putting initially — The surrounding district is not the prettiest part of Prague, and one couple said it was off-putting at first, though they never felt unsafe.

8.3Verified guest“The staff were really helpful arranging our airport transfers.”
8.3Verified guest“Some reviewers mentioned the room size, but my wife and I found it plenty big enough for two. Very comfortable and clean. The staff were very helpful, and breakfast was good — the cook and waitress couldn't be faulted. The lift fits four people and never failed once. The area was a bit off-putting at first, but we never felt uncomfortable walking around, even at night. Once you figure out the tram system, it's easy to get anywhere. The public transport is far better than in the UK, and you can even buy tickets at reception. It was very hot when we visited, so the pool was a big bonus, despite a small charge. For the price, unbeatable.”
8.3Verified guest“The hotel was clean and the staff, especially the manager, were approachable.”
8.3Verified guest“Excellent food variety here.”
8.3Verified guest“I enjoyed talking with the hotel staff, and my room was clean. The breakfast was nice and the whole stay was comfortable.”
8.3Verified guest“Helpful staff who spoke good English. They arranged a takeaway breakfast for my 05:00 departure, even though I arrived at 21:00 the night before. The facilities looked good (pool, sauna), but I didn't have time to use them.”
