Lock in a great price for Hostel Franz Kafka – rated 8.4 by recent guests!

to get started.

The main selling point of Hostel Franz Kafka is the location. It was a very short walk to Old Town Square and the astrological clock, and there were several food options nearby or within a 5-10 minute walk. The price was also phenomenal for the location!

I just booked one night because I was in Prague half month ago and just here to catch my flight, I just want to say it’s a pity that last time when I was in Prague I didn’t book this hostel, it’s very clean and silence at night, very comfortable bed. And staffs are friendly and helpful, if I have chance to come Prague again I’m sure I’ll book here again

Because the Hostel is so close to the square it gets all the street noise. We got no sleep because of the noise from the street. Won’t stay here again!!!

“Great location, okay stay, but soooo many keys”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Bunk Bed in Female Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Was unlucky to get a top bunk not near a power socket. Too many keys to go through the multiple doors. There were two sets of doors just to get into the females dorm on the top level, and so to get to the bathroom, you'll need to go past two sets of doors, the elevator and through another locked door to the common area of the kitchen and bathroom. Showers were okay but the sensor light in one of the toilets weren't working.
Location is great. Two minute walk to the square with the astronomical clock and walkable to the castle district too if you prefer not to take public transport. Elevator in the building - especially great as the rooms are at the top. Female dorm is spacious with lockers and couch. Hangers and hooks available in the room. Kitchen is small but seems to be equipped enough to cook a small meal and has some cute things on the wall. Hostel is based on Franz Kafka's stories so some dorms are named as such.

I was in a female room, and the bathroom was in the other part of the building. The kitchen didn't have much utensils. I went in the summer and was very hot inside the room and they didn't have a ventilator.
The location was great, close to the old town square.

Towel and lock had to be turned in before 8pm to get a refund. Went out for the night and had to get a flight at 6am. No issues, because hostel is safe. But would have preferred to lock my stuff up and shower in the morning.

No air conditioning, rooms were very hot. The staff said that they had fans for guests to use, but stated that they would not let us borrow them. Hostel itself was quiet, but the courtyard that our room overlooked was incredibly noisy— people were loud and cursing at 5:00 in the morning. Mold in the shower.
Very close to many sights.
