Excellent hotel, very large, quiet rooms in 200-yr-old building, super friendly and helpful staff. Outstanding breakfast array. Just half-a-block from tram stop with numerous lines in all directions across Prague. Great location for walking across Charles Bridge to Old Town or exploring the Mala Strana district. Highly recommended.

This was our second time here, the hotel is spotless, the staff are more than helpful. The choice for breakfast is really good.

A very nice stay in Prague @ Charles Hôtel!

The location is very near Charles bridge & other great sightseeing, and good restaurants. The service is very good, the staff are very helpful. The bed is comfortable, the only discomfort is the bath, you have to be very careful when climbing out of the bathtub. There are variety of choices for breakfast, and we were so thankful for they prepared a bag of breakfast for me and my daughter because our flight is early in the morning. I highly recommend this hotel.

The Charles Hotel off the Charles Bridge!

I absolutely was blown away by the location of the hotel, steps from the most beautiful lancet arched entrance to the Charles Bridge and into the New Town. The hotel is so quaint, very clean. All the staff was so attentive and caring. I enjoyed my stay there tremendously.
The entrance into the New Town Mala Strana.
