“The hotel occupies a beautifully refurbished building from the 14th century, a UNESCO heritage site; it is right on the Old Market Place near the superb Tyn Cathedral. The staff seems friendly, and the spacious rooms offer a real feel of Prague, but the dated restaurant could use some modernizing. For me, it remains a favorite, with reasonably priced charm in a prime location.”
