All the staff were helpful and very friendly. Great location that is close to trams, food and attractions. Bed mattress felt a little slanty but it was alright. Breakfast was great with many choices. They let us know a week prior to check in that one day water would be out and they gave us huge water bottles and a comped day to ise in future.

Great Location with History

Friendly and helpful staff! Older hotel with beautiful architecture. Wonderful breakfast and ideal location!
Danelle, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Great staff, all very friendly and helpful. Hotel is nice and kept very clean, however it is an older property and the finish wasn’t to the standard you would expect in a more modern building so this is a place for people who appreciate a bit of character where they stay. Was noisy sometimes at night as the old doors and windows do little to muffle the sound of other guests and people outside. Breakfast was a good selection and the location super convenient with tram and bus stops only a minute away. Shower was powerful and water nice and hot.

Excellent hotel, very large, quiet rooms in 200-yr-old building, super friendly and helpful staff. Outstanding breakfast array.

The Charles Hotel off the Charles Bridge!

I absolutely was blown away by the location of the hotel, steps from the most beautiful lancet arched entrance to the Charles Bridge and into the New Town. The hotel is so quaint, very clean. All the staff was so attentive and caring. I enjoyed my stay there tremendously.
The entrance into the New Town Mala Strana.
The Gothic lancet arch.
