Great place for weekend break

Unique experience, good food, sweetest staff!

Pros: Great staff, always proactively helping, very attentive, super friendly. The food is also very delicious - breakfast offering was great and there were milk alternatives for coffee. Special thanks to Vivek who was seamlessly managing the restaurant during our stay. Dinner menu had a few great options to choose from - we enjoyed the pike crunch fries!

Cons: When the temperatures dropped, our river facing room got really cold and uncomfortable at night despite the in-room heating - however the staff immediately offered us a portable heater when we flagged this. So glad :)

Good location and a comfortable hotel.

Pros: The hotel was clean and warm. Staff friendly and the room was comfortable. The breakfast was plentiful and varied. The location was good. Not too central so the city noises would disturb us and at the same time handy for a tram into the centre. There is a swimming pool very close and a great riverside walk into town. Our room had a river view (recommended option) with a peaceful outlook.

Cons: Hot chocolate option at breakfast would be nice.

Unique experience of boat living within Prague

Pros: The uniqueness of a botel. Front dest staff Myla and restaurant waiter Avi were fantastic

Cons: Complicated journey into town centre (other than Tram 17 to Old Town - a new tram stop just outside the botel is underway)

Perfect Spot for a Peaceful Getaway Near the City

Pros: Great stay with outstanding value! The hotel is a bit outside the city center, but there’s an area with many restaurants just one tram stop away, and every tram line takes you straight to the center — super convenient! If you’re looking for a quieter stay and a slightly different experience, this is the place for you. Everything was great: the breakfast was very good, the staff extremely friendly, parking very convenient, and overall just excellent. I would 100% recommend it!

Perfect stay to explore and enjoy Prague

Pros: The room was really good, comfy bed, nice view to the river. Beds are really soft, but surprisingly comfortable. Parking is perfect and cheap compared to other parts of the city - usually it's 25-30€ /day here only 9€. Tram stop is 1 minute walk, really easy to reach the old town, also really worth to take a walk on the shore, enjoy the bar boats, the saturday farmers market etc really good location. The breakfast is superb totally worth the 10€.

Cons: We only miss a little fridge from our room.
