Hotel Melantrich

perfect location in the heart of the old town.outstanding friendly helpful stuff.detailed easy to follow up information for guests checking in after business hours.

Pros: The hotel is situated centrally in Prague ideal to walk out to the sights. The room was very clean and situated overlooking the inner yard Our bed and bedding were very comfortable and clean Breakfast was sufficient Cons: Please be aware there is no elevator as it is a historic building. Therefore if you are infirm it’s not for you. You need to be on the upper floors as there is a night club below the hotel which operates until about 0300hrs and the sound travels. There is no air conditioning. A desk fan is provided. We couldn’t leave the windows open as the extraction from the restaurant below wafted into our room. There is no provision of drinking water or tea and coffee facilities in the room. A bottle of spring water is available in the mini bar for €6 !!!

A perfect hotel in the city center (Prague). It is very comfortable for short trips. It is very clean and the service is very friendly.

Very friendly staff, we arrived late after reseption closing time but staff was helpfull with arrival procedures. Wery central location 200 m from Mustek but still quiet rooms. Rooms guite basic nothin fancy but brekfast very good and included in price.

The place is lovely and it is in a great location. They let me store my bag after I checked out, so I was able to spend the time between checking out and my flight walking around the city. They also looked for and found a bracelet that I lost in the hotel whilst leaving.

Things I liked: * Excellent location * Reasonable price * Very good breakfast * The front desk people are superb. Thank you, Martin and Jacob. * Bed was comfortable and I really liked the pillow. * The room amenities are meager, but perfectly adequate. Time in Prague shouldn't be spent in your room, except to sleep! Things I disliked: * Small shower. I'm slim yet I felt very, very cramped. If you're a large person, you will hate the shower. I'd be inclined to get wet, turn off the water and then rinse off, but the shower has a manual temperature controller (the norm in the US, but more rare in Europe) so if you turn off the water and turn it back on, it won't be the same temperature. * Noise. It's next door to a bar that plays loud and/or live music, and on the weekends, you can hear it until 2 or 3am, even if your room isn't facing it or the street. Also, because it's an old building, the plumbing is not insulated, so when somebody in an adjacent room (same or different floor) flushes their toilet, it's loud. Unlike the shower, you can overcome this with earplugs. * Keys. There are three keys (two metal, one electronic), and the keyring also has a large wooden fob identifying the room number. The thing is bulky and uncomfortable to put in your pocket if you're wearing slim pants. * Locks. After hours, you have to pass many locked doors on the way to the room. It's tedious. Conclusion: If location is important and you're not sensitive to the issues above, the I would recommend this hotel. If I return to Prague, I'd look for a different hotel with this value profile, but if I couldn't find one, I'd be very content to stay here again.
