Hotels near Nostalgic Museum, Prague

We spent ten days in Prague in May, 2023, staying at the Dancing House, and we couldn't have been happier. The conventional wisdom for a hotel in Prague is to find one on Old Town to be close to the many tourist sites, but the location of the Dancing House offered several benefits: there is a tram stop just outside of the hotel, and around both corners to the left and the right about six blocks away is a Metro station. We never once felt ”away from the action” during our stay in the city. We had a beautiful room, 402, which was spacious and comfortable with three large windows. Every morning we would get up and pull back the curtains to a view of the river and the Jirásek Bridge. Then we took the elevator up three flights to the breakfast room on the seventh floor, being sure to take one of the tables by a window. There was nothing more that we could have wanted as the selection of items was comprehensive, but I especially like the machine which dispensed cups of black coffee, café au lait, cappuccino, and espresso. And the bottles of Prosecco! There is also a nice coffee/gift shop on the ground floor where we stopped two afternoons for ice cream. The only feature of the hotel we didn’t especially like was the rooftop bar. We were given two passes to enter the bar but we didn’t buy a drink. The views are wonderful, but it was crowded with nowhere to sit, so we just walked around once and left. We found two bonuses staying at the Dancing House hotel: one was a nice wine bar, Wine Not, one hundred meters away at Masarykovo nábřeží 8- We stopped here several afternoons after sight-seeing to sample a glass (or two) of wine and to chat with the servers. And the second was a floating restaurant just across the street from the hotel – Restaurant Matylda. Luckily, we had dinner here on our second night and enjoyed it so much that we returned for one more dinner before leaving for home. A tip – the octopus carpaccio is great. And there are two open areas on the boat. On two afternoons we sat at a table on the bow in the sunshine and sipped chilled Czech Rose. If we ever return to Prague we will not hesitate to stay once again at the Dancing House.

This place is just dirty. The carpet flooring is thin and shaggy. The bathrooms are tiny––there is no storage for any toiletries so you basically need to keep everything in your bag. There was mold in the bathroom near the shower area on the ceiling. The shower head was dirty. When I arrived, the exhaust fan in the bathroom was making a hissing noise, so I decided to take a look at it. I unscrewed the front cover, and it railed thick dust all over the bathroom. The cleanliness is really disappointing, especially when a lot of these issues could be fixed with more thorough cleaning and some preventative maintenance. Other than that, the rooms are small. The twin beds in the rooms are so close, it may as well be one bed. The cabinets and shelving are built in, and they make the room feel really cramped. Overall, the whole place is pretty bad. Nothing about it is pleasing or enjoyable, and the pool comes at an extra fee. The place earns an extra star because the location is great, and it provides a great jumping off point to see the beautiful city of Prague. I've stayed at a lot of hotels in a lot of different countries. I'd say this is the worst one I've seen. I'm sure you can find a fairly comparable place that actually cleans their rooms.

Amazing hotel , friendly and polite staffs , nice location , very close to old town center . The breakfast was amazing . The room is very nice , wonderful sheets , love the lighting in the bathroom and the huge double mirror .

Fantastic hotel, in a great location with a very helpful and attentive staff and excellent offering. Our room was very modern, spacious, clean and had all the amenities you would need for your stay (coffee machine, kettle, fridge, dishwasher there is an oven as well but we didn't use it). Breakfast - beautifully laid out buffet bar offering warm and cold selection with an excellent choice for any dietary requirements; fresh ingredients, lovely local breads, fruit, pastry, freshly made omelettes - very tasty. Staff - Reception - young, welcoming, attentive, helpful - just great :-) Bar - Mr. Jan - absolute star who makes the best cocktail - if you like espresso martini - go for The Julius cocktail - it's just perfect after all day walking around Prague. Jan was super friendly, professional, no matter how big or small our bar order was. He kept the table always nice, tidy and his attentive service was very appreciated. Breakfast staff - team of buzzy Bees - making your stay wonderful, caring, taking care of the breakfast bar looking tidy and in order Cleaning ladies - kept our room nice, tidy and fresh. All we can say is - we had a fantastic stay and when back in Prague, we will be looking to stay at the Julius again. The hotel is very well placed, not too far from the local attractions and it always welcomes you back after a long day of exploring. Thank you again :-)!

Although there may be deviations for each person, the location is not very good by my standards. The nearest subway station is a 5-minute walk away, trampoline or bus stop is farther than that, and there are not many commercial areas around. It's about 10 minutes away from the tourist spots. The sheets and towels were not messy, but something seemed untidy and the breakfast was not lacking, but there were not many fruits and vegetables. The air conditioner was like an old fancoal, there was no free bottled water in the room and no port. Wi-Fi is not bad.

Booked via Booking.com a couple of weeks before we made the trip. It's in a fairly quiet area of Prague. Only a ten minute walk to the old town and a five minute walk to Florenc underground station. There are plenty of places to eat and drink nearby, so it's ideal for a short stay. The staff are the real stars of the Embassy Hotel. They speak very good English, knowledgeable and they are keen to go the extra mile. Checking in was easy and our room was spacious and clean. The bathroom was also a good size. I managed to get the temperature of the room down to a more comfortable setting, using the manual mode on the AC. There was a wide range of food for breakfast, including several granolas, meusli, porridge, fruit, cold meats and cooked food. There is only one lift that serves the six floors, but we never had to wait more than a couple of minutes to use it. The only minor issues were a low battery in the room safe, which was quickly dealt with, one blown bulb in the ceiling lamp and a broken sink plug open/close mechanism. The latter two would have been an irritation on a longer stay and should really have been picked up on a room inspection. That aside, we had a very pleasant stay indeed.

Very nice hotel - we will book a room again here when we return to Prague. The staff was very friendly and the room was lovely. We were here during a very hot week in July and there was a fan in our room which helped cool us down at night. Very thankful for this. The room was clean and had everything we needed. Breakfast was included in the price, and for a ”free” breakfast it was absolutely fine. I do wish the milk for the cereal had been cold, but that is a minor detail. Everything else was lovely. The hotel is located right next to the tram lines which made it easy and fast to get into the center of town. The staff was very serviceminded and answered every question we had.

My spouse, my friends, and I stayed 2 nights for Canada Day weekend at Mama Shelter prague. It's in a great location, short transit to old Town Prague with multiple ways of getting there. Bolt, scooters, tram, or even walking works as well. Staff was friendly, except for when we got back to our hotel room on Saturday night. The door was left open by house keeping and luckily nothing was stolen. A woman staff member at the front didn't believe what I told her, so we showed her and said something would be done about it. Upon checking out, there were no notes, and nothing was done. So definitely a lack of professionalism by the night staff. Breakfast was excellent with alot of choices. It's a buffet and is open from 7am to 1030am most days. Food was fresh and 0 issues. The room was clean and spacious. King size bed was comfortable, the air conditioning was okay, but could've been better. 2 TVs and 2 bathrooms. So it was a comfortable stay for us. Overall, definitely worth the money you pay to have everything included. I still believe the hotel parking should be included into the price like in North America.

The hotel was nice and clean. The receptionists were very nice and professional. The room was big enough and tidy. Breakfast is plentiful, you can find here pastries, jam, fruits, vegetables, cheese, salami, eggs, sausages, juices, coffee, etc. BUT! The restaurant was a disaster. It is in an open area right next to the reception, so new guests look you right in the mouth. The cold air blew terribly from the front door, so we had to sit in a jacket for dinner. The wine at 690 CZK was a tragedy, the taste was totally inadequate, which was no surprise when we eventually found out that you can buy this wine for 120 CZK. Unfortunately, the food also did not match the price. We were disappointed that there were too many people in the spa. We didn't even use The jacuzzi and pool because it was impossible to move around. To get from the pool to the sauna you have to walk through the gym. The only sauna was no problem in spa.

It was an enjoyable stay, nice rooms, good food, very nice employes. The rooms were clean and in good condition, the beds are very comfortable. When I come to Pragu again will be staying here. Definitly recomend to all.
