Hotel Details

Location

Situated 70 metres from Charles Bridge and 400 metres from Old Town Square, this pension is at the epicentre of Prague's historic core.
Staroměstská metro station and tram stops are a 5-minute walk away, while Václav Havel Airport Prague is 11 km from the property. The surrounding street is lively with restaurants, cafés, and shops, yet windows provide good sound insulation for a quiet indoor environment. Rooms facing the inner courtyard are particularly peaceful. The location allows all major attractions, including the Astronomical Clock and Prague Castle, to be reached on foot, reducing reliance on public transport.

Accommodation

Spacious, quiet rooms with comfortable beds, private or shared bathrooms, and a shared kitchen. Modern, clean furnishings.
Rooms are generously sized - often described as 'huge' or 'roomy' - and are equipped with a seating area, wardrobe, safe, heating, and carpeted or parquet floors. Most units feature a private bathroom with a shower, hairdryer, and complimentary toiletries. Triple and quad rooms are available with a combination of double and single beds. There is no TV in the rooms, but free high-speed Wi-Fi is provided. Daily cleaning is standard, although some units are located on the second floor without a lift, so mobility may be a consideration.

Dining

No on-site restaurant or breakfast service. A shared kitchen is available for self-catering.
The shared kitchen is well-equipped with a fridge, kettle, tea, coffee, plates, and glasses, allowing guests to prepare their own meals. A coffee shop (Tricafe) and several restaurants are within a 1-2 minute walk, including Charlie's Ristorante and Restaurant Mlynec, offering plenty of dining options steps from the door.

Wellness and Leisure

No wellness or leisure facilities on site. Activities such as hiking, cycling, and walking tours are available nearby for an additional charge.
The property itself does not have a spa, pool, or fitness centre. However, the surrounding area offers bike tours, pub crawls, and walking tours (some free, some with a charge). A golf course is within 3 km, and a water park is accessible off-site. The shared kitchen and quiet room are the main in-house leisure resources.

Facilities and Services

Free in-room Wi-Fi, shared kitchen, tour desk, and no reception - key pickup from a secure lockbox.
Internet is available free of charge in all rooms. The property provides a tour desk, invoice upon request, and safety deposit boxes. Housekeeping is performed daily. Safety features include CCTV, smoke alarms, and fire extinguishers. There is no lift, so all rooms are accessed via stairs on the second floor. Parking is not available, but a public garage is within walking distance. Late check-out may be possible depending on availability.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Plan your arrival within check-in hours (14:00-20:00/21:00), as late-night check-in is not possible.

  • 02

    Request a room overlooking the inner courtyard if you are sensitive to noise, as these are notably quieter.

  • 03

    Use the on-site luggage storage until noon on departure day to explore Prague hands-free.

  • 04

    Choose a room with a private bathroom if shared facilities are not suitable.
