The King Charles

"We absolutely loved this hotel, it is beautiful. We booked a junior suite with a fireplace, and were blown away with our rooms. On entering there was a large area with wardrobes, one of which contained an ensuite kitchen!!!. The very large bathroom had a bath/shower. The vast bedroom had a queen sized bed, a desk and chair, a table, a sofa, 2 chaise longue type chairs and a large fireplace. The staff at the King Charles are excellent, very friendly and very helpful. The whole place was spotlessly clean. The hotel is situated very close to the castle but on a quiet street. It was a 10/15 minute walk to Charles bridge, but a bit longer on the walk back, due to the fairly steep road. I would caution anyone with mobility issues against staying here. There are a lot of restaurants in the area Just a note of caution, do not use the mini market across the road from the hotel, very dishonest."

"Very nice and cute hotel, Real Royal Retro - there is the good old hotel style, where you are given a key with a heavy pendant, which you have to leave with the attendant when you leave and he/she always greets you with a smile when you arrive (it is much more pleasant than with modern plastic cards). Very spacious rooms with lounge chairs and a sofa, very comfortable beds. Kind and helpful staff. Rich breakfast with a very wide choice, including savory dishes and Czech origin sparkling wine. Many nice places in Prague nearby: the Castle, St. Vitus Cathedral, Strahov Monastery, many restaurants and beer pubs all around. My recommendation for arriving from the Airport: take bus 191 to Vypich, then tram 22 to Pohorzelec and down the hill to the hotel. Back to the airport, down the hill again, but to Malostranska namesti, one stop by tram, to the Green metro line with it to Nadrazi Valeslavin and trolleybus 59 to Airport."

"This hotel is beautiful with many original features throughout including the rooms, which have modern facilities in the large bathrooms. The ambience is perfect at the end of a busy day seeing some of the many sights of Prague. The location is perfect, it is literally minutes from the castle entrance, a short walk from the new town, a little bit further to Charles Bridge and the old town. Yes it is on a steep hill and could be difficult for anybody reliant on a wheelchair or with severe walking difficulties, but it's worth the effort of every step. Because of its siting it is so quiet at night, we had our windows (stained glass) open every night even though it was December as the room was so warm, it was so peaceful. We were on the top floor but there is a lift, because of the small numbers of rooms it was always available, and the advantage of being on the top floor was that looking down over the landing down below was stunning. Breakfast was in a small dining area, on one occasion we had to eat in the reception area as it was full but that was just as pleasant. There was plenty of choice for breakfast, you never left the hotel hungry. If we ever return to Prague I would choose this hotel again for its location, cleanliness, and value for money, there really are no negatives."
