Hotel In prague

Advantages: Reasonably cheap accomodation
Disadvantages: No in house Restaurant, No Room Service

...The accomodation Upon checking in to the accomodation I was asked for my Passport, so they could check the details of the booking I had made under my own name. I guess they use this procedure against breakages and in case of theft, trouble etc. I have not known this to be a feature in accomodation in England. This company procedure did not bother me whatsoever. I travelled alone to this accomodation, having booked a small room, however when I was shown my room I am sure it would have been suitable for two people. As I was staying in prague for two nights on a leisurely short city break, this did not particularly bother me too much regarding the standard of the facilities. When I was shown my room there were two single Bed's situated side-by-side. The Bed's to my eyes looked nineteen eightees style old fashioned beds...

Review of Pension Beetle Hotel, Prague

Great stay at this hotel in Prague

Advantages: Low price paid per night, decent basic breakfast
Disadvantages: No tea and coffee facilities inside the room.

...Hotel Apollon Prague Introduction Having stayed in Prague many times before I decided upon staying at this hotel as it was slightly outside the town centre area of Prague and it did have easy access to the town centre by using trams. Getting there From Dejvicka we got the green line metro to Mustek, wencezlas square, then outside Debenhams from Wencezlas square I took the number nine tram which took about 15 minutes on the tram. Paying for the accomodation This was paid for in advance using a credit card using www.booking.com. I paid a total of £20 a night which was excellent value for money, though I was slightly annoyed as my credit card was charged straightaway for the booking. I was also charged 50 czech koruna which is about £2 for breaking the card key to the room. Though all in all I was happy...

Review of Apollon Hotel Prague, Prague

A bargain character hotel in the Centre of Prague

Advantages: Good location, small inexpensive hotel with large room
Disadvantages: Not a full-service hotel

...Sometimes I really have to think long and hard about whether to write a review of a hotel that I like for fear of persuading others to use it and then finding I can't get a room next time I want one. So please consider yourselves honoured that I'm going to let you in on a secret and tell you about the hotel I found recently in Prague. Why do so many people shun local hotels in favour of the international hotel chains? Well my guess is that they are looking for security - like American tourists hunting down McDonalds in Paris and Rome. They know they'll never get anything surprising but they know exactly what they WILL get. A hotel brand should guarantee a certain level of quality in return for sometimes paying well over the odds. So if you decide to pick an independent hotel at random will you end up in a bed-bug ridden filth pit...

Hotel Duo - Prague

Advantages: Great place to stay
Disadvantages: Few

...Just returned fron Prague and thought this hotel definitely deserved a review! Me and my boyfriend stayed here for four nights Sunday - Thursday. Where is it? The Hotel Duo is not right in the centre of Prague, you do have to do a bit of traveling - but this is pain free and pretty simple. From the airport we booked a transfer online, this cost us 650Kc. This works out at about £14, this is each way for up to 4 people. The hotel offers taxi transfers slightly cheaper than this which can be booked on their website before for your arrival, and booked in the hotel for departure. They also offer a minibus service to the airport for up to 8 people. This cost about £25 which is very reasonable. Other ways to get to the hotel are to get a bus (119) from the airport to the Dejvicka metro station, which is on the green line...

Hotel Bellagio, Prague

Advantages: Small, smart, central
Disadvantages: Nowhere to 'lounge'

...If you are looking for a chic, modern hotel in a quiet but central part of Prague, and don't want to spend a fortune, the Bellagio is probably for you. This 46 room hotel was completely renovated in 2002 and offers all the facilities you would expect from a 4 star hotel. Our room was large and comfortable, elegantly decorated and furnished. We had two big single beds pushed together, a seating area with two chairs and a table, tv, (with MTV, sky news), mini bar, plenty of space, light and chocolates on the pillow. The bathroom was huge and had a great big walk in shower, no bath, but plenty of fluffy towels and toiletries. We were on the top floor, so our view was mostly of rooftops, but from the staircase outside you looked onto a pretty courtyard. We discovered that the room service menu (drinks only) was cheaper than...

Review of Hotel Bellagio, Prague

Lord take me to Heaven. Take me to the Mandarin Oriental Prague.

Advantages: Luxury hotel. Brilliant food. Excellent service. Great location. Value for Money!
Disadvantages: Having to go home!

...years! Booking After I had discovered the hotel?s existence I looked at the selection of online deals. There were certainly plenty of rates available, however I prefer to deal with Mandarin Oriental over the telephone. Usually there are other promotions available direct that can be more suited to your needs. I called the hotel directly and lone behold there was a perfect deal for us. They arranged for us to pay for the first two nights and they would award us the third night complementary. This was inclusive of breakfast. They would also provide us with 100 Euro of credit to use within the hotel restaurant or bar should we wish. So for £300 I was getting three nights of five star luxury. I was sold. The final thing to arrange was the transfer from the airport to the hotel. Now last time I was in Prague we took a rather scruffy taxi to...

Review of Hotel Mandarin Oriental, Prague

Cheap hotel outside centre of Prague

Advantages: Quite cheap, clean
Disadvantages: not in centre & taxis are not cheap!!

...I went to Praque twice this year with my boyfriend. We stayed here for 5 nights from 2nd January this year and the hotel was about £225 for the two of us - inc. basic continental breakfast. We didnt book hotel transfer - wish we had cos the taxi charged us about £20 - for a half hour/ 40mins tranfer - so make sure you book a transfer cos we did get ripped off! I would not recommend getting the metro as there are loads of steps to get to the metro station and some of the escalators are really steep and you feel as though its straight down!! Also, the buses are quite regular but again I would not recommend it - although they are very cheap but you have to buy a ticket and usually you will need change to use the machine and the queues can be quite long for the desk service. While you are in Prague - i would recommend trying the wee...

hotel olsanka

Advantages: Cheap and cheerful
Disadvantages: Not so easy to access the town centre of prague.

...hotel olsanka prague Having been to prague recently and having stayed at this particular accomodation a few years ago, I was keen to give this place one final chance as I had had a really rubbish stay at this place. Similarly to my previous stay, I had notice that the Hotel seems to be advertised much cheaper on accomodation websites compared to near enough all other places to stay in prague. getting to the accomodation The details of getting to prague town centre are covered in my previous prague accomodation review, and whilst this accomodation is not as easy to get to location wise, a tram journey needed to get the accomodation from one of the central location's of prague town centre. booking process I booked this accomodation using a third party reservation booking website and paid around seventy euros...

Review of Hotel Olsanka, Prague

My first holiday abroad - Hotel Duo Prague

Advantages: Cheap, clean, spacious, sports centre,
Disadvantages: Out of town, charges for use of facilties usually free in UK 4* hotels

.... The 7 day ticket cost Kc280 each about £8 for the week. No one checked the ticket until we had been there 6 days, and the guy checking had a troupe of armed police with him so it is not worth trying to get away with not buying a ticket - especially as it is so cheap! Public transport is extremely clean, when a train arrived in Prague station an army of cleaners descended on it and mopped the floors and walls down. There was graffiti and some vandalism but no litter, mess or smells - unlike the public transport in the U.K. Eating in the city: ---------------------- We started staying out a bit later so we could eat out in the evening, as it was better variety and quality and the portions are much more generous than the hotel. Czechs don't go in for a lot of vegetables, but we found a lovely restaurant in the Jewish quarter that did...

Review of Hotel Duo, Prague

Mixing business and pleasure in Prague

Advantages: Great location, excellent business services
Disadvantages: Not as special as you might hope for a five star

...Finding a hotel in Prague is always a challenge - not because there are too few, rather because there's too much choice and it can be baffling if you don't know the city. I've been going to Prague since the early 1990s and have stayed in hotels ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous - some really grand (I particularly enjoyed sharing a fancy hotel near the castle with the Portuguese national football team!) and others barely better than a student hall of residence. The company I work for recently held a big regional get-together in Prague at the Radission SAS Alcron Hotel. Around 80 of us were there and with the exception of the odd hour in restaurants and one afternoon running round the city pretending to be spies, the Alcron became our home from home for most of our time. ~ Location Location Location ~ The Alcron is...
