to get started.

Size of the room, comfy beds, great staff, restaurant food was fantastic

Charlotte, Spain

Perfect location near the beautiful attractions sees sights. The price is little high but the room view is perfect (river, bridge and castle). If you prefer public transportation, the hotel near by tram stations and metro station.

Hani, Saudi Arabia

The location was fabulous and the staff was extremely helpful. Choose a castle view room. If possible.

Rita, United States of America

The hotel was fabulous! The staff were courteous and accommodating. The room was amazing. Tomàs, the waiter in the restaurants, was the epitome of great service. I felt like a princess staying in the palace.

Stacy, United Arab Emirates

We liked everything else about the place. Check in was great and spa facial was wonderful suites were large and beds were telling best.

Trampis, Spain

Very good location Friendly staff Lovely outdoor lobby Good view

Muhand, Saudi Arabia

The location was excellent (right by the Charles Bridge) and the attached restaurants were great. The room was very charming (a lot of character) and the staff were nice and professional.

Umstadter, United States of America

Very helpful staff, comfortable rooms and excellent location!

Martha, United States of America

The staff were awesome! The property is in a wonderful location! The room was amazing and the bed was extra cozy!

Jill, United States of America

Lovely comfy four-poster bed in a high-ceilinged room with beautiful historic architectural details. Clean, spacious—and the kitchenette was a lovely plus/surprise. The meals in the restaurant and cafe were delicious. The entire hotel/palace space had so much potential—loved some of the antiques and huge windows.

Each room has an ensuite. The rooms can be connected into suites. We were in the top floor. Some of the bathroom layouts were awkward. This was only a minor issue.
Newly renovated suites. Nicely furnished. Central location. Staff very helpful. Restaurants food at hotel was great.

Everything is fine but just a few suggestions to make it even better if the availability of a toaster, a shower curtain or slide shower door in place, more modern movie channels and better Wi-Fi speed will further enhance the visitors’ experience.
Spacious family suites with good view at fifth floor and it is not a problem as staff at hotel enthusiastically offers us help to bring luggages upstairs from 4th floor to 5th floor. Very much appreciated about this. What’s more is their help to pick our luggages into pick up car upon departure.

Nothing
It is located right beside the Vltava river and you can see beautiful landscape from this hotel. Besides, it is conveniently situated for sightseeing by foot, for example Charles Bridge and Old town. All receptionists and other staff are kind and friendly. Therefore you can get a warm reception from them after your long trip.
