I recently stayed at this hotel for 5 nights during a meeting at the Congress Centre. I was really, really happy with all aspects of this hotel. Here is a summary of my experience:
LOCATION: The hotel is approximately 10 minutes walk from the Congress Centre, 5 minutes from the scenic Vyšehrad (Hilltop Fortress), and around 30 minutes walk to the Old Town. It's also a few steps from a major tram stop, which will take you to the Old Town in 10 minutes.
ROOMS: I admit, my review may be coloured by the fact that the hotel upgraded me to the double room. They originally said I would have to move midway through my stay, back to a single room. However, I guess because of a cancellation, I was able to stay the full time in the double room. The room was comfortable, quiet, and very clean. There were two beds, which could be pushed together. These were very comfortable. The air conditioning unit worked very well (it was a very hot week in Prague). The bathroom was clean and modern. My only negative comments: 1) The television was quite small (although I almost never used it - there were only 2 English channels), 2) It would be nice to have a shelf in the shower to place shampoo, soap, etc.
A quick note to the reviewer below - they have darkening curtains now!
SERVICE: The staff was friendly, attentive and very helpful. In addition to the upgrade, they were helpful by: bringing an iron and board to my room immediately when asked, supplying me with extra hangars, and lending me a power converter for free.
FOOD/RESTAURANT: Breakfast was included in our stay. It was adequate, but not exceptional. There was lots of choice (eggs, cereal, breads, cheese and meats). Otherwise, the hotel restaurant is very good - I had a quick bite, or beer at the restaurant, and the staff is very pleasant. It's also a nice place to get work done.
WIFI: Fast and free - no complaints. Fast enough to watch Netflix.
Overall, I had a very good stay at this hotel, and it is very reasonably priced compared to the Holiday Inn at the Congress Centre. I will certainly stay here again, next time I have a meeting in Prague.
