Great location for this hotel. Its within walking distance of all the major attractions and sites. The tram station is right next to it. Lots of shops and restaurants. The hotel is clean, staff are nice the rooms are well equipped with everything needed. Its an old hotel though and the elevator is only available till the 3rd floor. We had our room on the 4th floor and carrying two big luggages was not an easy task. I would stay again but ask for a room on the 3rd floor max.

Great stay
We enjoyed our stay. Staff was very nice. Parking was not available inside perimeters as suggested by hotel description but on the street which worked out well. Location is great - lots of restaurants and small shops around, 2 min from 's Charles' Bridge, about 10 min walk from the castle and 15 min from old town. Hotel is located inside older building, hence, it might not be as modern as expected. It has a lot of charm though. Only negative was lots of noises during the night of what we assume was a generator that kept revving up. We could still sleep. It just took some time to get used to them. Other than that, we would definitely stay there again.

I would go back, but perhaps not as refined as first hoped. Lack of restaurant impacted the overall score as I checked in late and didn’t really want to go back out. However, plenty to see and do right outside the door, so no big issue.

Obviously with our surname we had little option other than to stay here and our 1 night stopover was excellent! Lovely old hotel with many original features. A very comfortable, spacious and air conditioned room on the top floor with views over the church and a tasty breakfast. Perfect! Brian & Karen Charles

Great location, very good guest bedrooms, comfortable, clean, well maintained, good breakfasts, helpful and friendly staff. Let down by ridiculously small bathroom (room 102) - could only open/close shower door by squeezing oneself between the toilet and the wall, shower door didn't close properly so always leaking onto minute bathroom floor, shower riser rail bracket faulty so shower head/spray wouldn't stay in place. Bathroom toiletries (though good) were not replenished during our stay. Would stay again but definitely not in room 102.

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.
The Gothic lancet arch.
