Bad: Scrambled eggs tended to be very salty, spread does not change much

CONS: Sockets in the rooms were not universal (they were the type-Cs), WiFi was not always stable, refurbished rooms do not have bathtubs

The tub is taller then most US hotel tubs so it may be hard to step in and out of and may not be easy for people who have balance or other issues.

The tub/shower floor is about 4-6 inches higher than the bathroom floor.

The bathtub was a bit high to get into for a shower, so one might be careful about that if one is elderly.

Shower area was elevated on a tub and has half door so make sure to hold the detachable shower head and make the water pressure low.

However, the shower/bathtub combination was a disappointment because of the tub's slippery surface and too-low grab bar.

But the bathtub is too high that you may need to 'climb in'.

Just the the bathroom is not perfect, there is no shower only a bathtub with a shower head.

It was quite a large step up and over the tub wall though!

Accessibility: the room we were in had a shower over a bathtub.

The tub/shower was difficult to get up and into and the bottom of the tub was rounded which means you need to pay extra attention when showering.

although tub was slippery in the shower, so be careful.

Rooms are very clean and breakfast is decent.

We had breakfast which was really nice, had everything we wanted.

The breakfast buffet had a very good choice of hot & cold food and drinks.

Great breakfast and A lot of options also including glutenfree.

Breakfast was great, the pancake machine was a blast for our son.

Staying in Hotel Botanique was a pleasure - clean, eco-friendly hotel with amazing breakfast!

Breakfast was wonderful, with an array that was always replenished and fresh.

Room and also bathroom were clean and beautifully furnished.

Overall the hotel is clean, modern and in a central-ish location.

We found the hotel to be very clean, no problem with our room, the staff on reception were very helpful and informative, the restaurant staff were also helpful and quick to replace items at the breakfast buffet which were running out, and removing used plates etc from tables.

The room was great, clean, really comfy beds and everything you needed for a city break.Breakfast had a good choice too and we never found it over busy.

Hotel staff were always helpful, friendly, room was clean, quiet, food was good.

Very clean and well-maintained. Also easier to get over to riverside paths so great for walking/ running (just over lovely 3k along river to charles bridge)

however were clean and the cleaning staff we saw were friendly.

Really clean and well equipped, excellent price for what you get.

The hotel was very clean, and beds comfortable.

Staff is very friendly and helpful, everything is extremely clean.

The room is very clean, quiet, even if it is near the subway, the breakfast is very substantial.

The bathroom was really worth seeing, spacious and super clean!

Sentral location next to Florenc subway station and main bus station.

Beautiful hotel with perfect location (about 20 minutes by walk to Old Town Square and metro stop across the street).

Hotel itself is modern and stylish, in a good location - close to the main station, center. Would totally choose this hotel in the future again and recommend for others :)

It’s location is perfect just a short walk to the city centre or hop on the tram/metro if needed.

Hotel is located almost on top of a tram stop and metro station so getting into Prague is really easy, also only a short walk if you prefer to avoid public transport.

This hotel is ideally located for public transport and close enough to walk into the city centre.

Position is close to city center and very quiet.

The hotel's located in front of metro station, it's a short ride/ walk to city center.

Beautiful hotel in an excellent location directly on the wonderful tram system.

It's very well located and well connected by public transport if that's how you choose to get around.

Lovely little hotel in a great location, really close to attractions and with some shops and bars nearby.

We went for the botanique room which was very modern and spacious, and because of it's location next to a tramline and metro station, was very convenient to go out and explore the city at all times.

Great location, superb room and delicious meals.

All in all a very pleasant hotel with great staff and a good location for you to explore Prague and all its beautiful sights.

I know they're putting in a new system soon (hopefully they'll update their website when they do because I know it'll deter a lot of people) though and it didn't worry me because I have free mobile roaming. Breakfast was good - variety of German style stuff with cold meats and salads etc

Their layout and functionality is great with small things such as having USB-C plugs to charge iPads and latest generation iPhones on the side of each bed is great addition + the suitcase storage well thought out.

The only downside which we found on both mornings was the cleaners - 6.30am wake up call from them slamming doors and banging around in the hall ways.

This was then made worse by a series of dodgy phone calls that occurred at 5am, when these calls were answered the phone was put down!

The bar staff rang me when i left something on the bar.

Extremely inhospitable, asked for them to charge my phone and it was a drama, asked the restaurant for a tiny pot of

When they got back to their room it still hadn't arrived so they had to call down and ask them to bring one.

but this was rectified in a few minutes of a phone call which we thought was fantastic.

The only negative was that I asked the hotel to give me a wake up call and they forgot

The staff I spoke to on the phone were extremely rude.

No one came up so I had to call down again 2 hours later.

The hairdryer did not work one call to reception and 5 minutes later housekeeping knocked on the door with a replacement.

Three Customers: We both used Three (UK) mobile phone with Feel At Home.

One things to be aware of, Do not get any of the taxis at the top of the road from James joice's Irish bar, I left my new phone in one, I rang it twice and then it was switched off, checked "find my phone" and it had been switched off only a few minuets away, it was fully charged, this kinda put a dampener on my weekend away so always ask the hotel for a taxi card or number,

On my last night I rang down to reception around 4.30am only to be told I should have rang earlier!

but you have to type pass every time you lock the phone.

with singing at 1.30 am the night we arrived, I eventually called reception, they weren't nice on the phone

Try and explore Karlin if you stay, such a nice area with great beer garden!

We were recommended a dinner a dining cruise

The hotel has excellent facilities, food is exceptional, rooms are spacious and clean.Hotel provides tickets for events and public transport.

This time I decided to have a dinner in the hotel's restaurant and I have to admit, I am not disappointed at all.

We had a couple of nice cocktails in the bar then a short walk into town for a night out (10 - 15mins).

Hotel also inclusdes A bar with lots of options for cocktails.

- all food was good quality and tasted real, no generic mass-processed stuff.

You can enjoy drinks at the bar and the food in the restaurant is inexpensive and really excellent.

Location great for restaurants and walking to the major sites of Old Town.

Good hotel, with good breakfast and nice bistro.

Lunch and dinner menu was good quality, certainly above average for what you may expect for an hotel.

Excellent hotel in walking distance from Prague centre, friendly  staff, restaurant was really good.

We skipped the « all you can eat breakfast »

We decided to have breakfast the first morning and I felt the staff at breakfast quite rude as we hadn’t booked it

but there is one staff at the reception (weekday during the day)  that is so rude to me every time, that I try to avoid seeing her when I get out… her attitude every time tells me that I owe her a million dollars.

Their attitude is extremely rude, inappropriate and impolite.

The front desk staff was ridiculously rude.

The staff were rude and unfriendly, it seemed that they did not know how to even smile let alone be hospitable, may the culture of people in Prague.

The staff were rude and not helpful at all on checking in they charged us a completely different amount as to what we booked on Booking.com I showed them the booking confirmation, staff throughout our staff was grumpy and didn’t really want us there not a great experience at all it’s a shame because Prague is such a beautiful city stay somewhere else if you can.

Please understand that no one was rude or unhelpful, they just didn't seem to be over the moon about anything.

extremely rude staff who tried to rif us off of at least 900 euros!!

Mold in the coffee maker, water damage on ceiling, ripped carpet, broken tiles in bathroom, stained walls, stained bedding, tv didnt work, AND GOT CHARGED TWICE.

Perhaps he was stressed because there were loads of loud stag party guys in the lobby drinking and smelled like Lynx.

The housekeeping staff didn't bother to change both the pillow covers and the mattress, totally disgusting!!.

The carpets just look dirty and the bathroom leaves a lot to be desired with mold all over the shower.

but getting out of the shower (with water on the floor because there is only a partial glass wall that goes about 1/3 of the length of the tub) was tricky and I thought I was going to bust my butt a couple times.

This resulted in several nasty insect bites for me,

My only notice for travelers that it is a non smoking hotel.

As soon as we enter the room, it was stinky!

Quite courteous and accommodating in all of our crazy visitor requests, even when our schedule changed. Only caution on 2 bits: “smoker’s exhaust” fills the lobby when they leave the front door open, and guidance on a RegioJet bus ride to Cesky Krumlov seemed inaccurate (or maybe forced?)

On the first night (when my friend and I woke up at midnight drenched in sweat) the manager at the desk said they would move our room or fix the AC in the morning.

Reception didn't care just said we put a rollaway in your room.. after first day here came back late and the towels were thrown on the rails not folded.. bed was half made..
Not a great experience.. breakfast was ordinary fruit salad was old, muffins stale not impressed.

Second thing is there is smoking bin outside hotel and while standing there a man came up who was clearing homeless and started lifting the lid to find old cigarette to smoke.

disgusting rooms, argentines and cockroaches in the bathroom, in the beds and the elevator.

In the bathroom on the last day I found  on the floor a lot of long black hairs (disgusting).

The room was very clean and the breakfast was excellent.

The breakfast options were extensive, and coffee and tea are available throughout the day.

Unlimited coffee,  capuccino and espresso to hotel guests and their friends,    the beautiful bar,   where breakfast is served.

There was complimentary afternoon wine and a buffet breakfast with a variety of food choices.

Breakfast is served from 7 to 10 am and the breakfast buffet has so much food and variety of food it could be for lunch or even dinner.

Breakfast is included, and is abundant and delightful.

Great breakfast with complimentary coffee, tea, water and some treats all day.

Breakfast was one of the best I have seen.

Breakfast was included and I have to say, it was above and beyond of what I expected.

Breakfast is great with all sorts of food to accommodate everyone’s taste.

They arranged taxis to and fro from the airport very reasonably, breakfast was a bonus,Thank you for an enjoyable stay and will be back if we come to Prague again.

Fab location as very quiet, bus stop right outside.

The location is both close to all of sites you would wish to explore while in the city, yet extremely quiet as it is off the main drag.

The hotel is perfectly located on a quiet street near the main square, and it is within walking distance of the main sights.

Hotel Hastal Prague is located in Okd Town Prague.

The location is also excellent, it was a quiet area

The location is very close to all the old town action, old town square and astronomical clock, yet the neighborhood is quiet and calm.

Amazing hotel in great location in Prague.

Great location right next to the Staromestske (namesti) square and many sightseeing locations.

Location is great as we were able to walk to the Old Town Prague, Charles Bridge within 10 minutes.

The hotel itself is beautiful, situated in downtown Prague making it accessible to all the best tourist locations of this amazing city.

Old-worldly hotel in great location, Rooms spotless.

This hotel was the perfect location for my stay in Prague.

The rooms are really clean and the location was excellent.

The quality of breakfast was just too poor for us want to try again after a piece of bread and some coffee on the first day.

The only minus to be mentioned is the poor signal of wifi in our room.

His English was excellent which made up for our poor Czech!

Only the sound isolation was poor; snoring from next room kept us awake time to time.

Only draw back was the poor air conditioning in the humid heat.

I rate the hotel poor only to allow readers to know that this is the situation here.

although the bathroom was ok.
Breakfast was poor in fact on 2 days of our stay the orange juice was really only orange squash.

but we were always able to communicate easily (a blessing given our poor handle of Czech)!

The breakfast buffet was as another person posted just "sad" and poor quality.

Overall a poor experience and would not recommend the hotel for the price we paid which was approx £76 per night.

Only criticism -  the orange juice was rather diluted and poor - mix it with the bubbly.

However they then gave a poor convertion rate to Czech Crowns which meant that the final bill was some 10% higher than we had anticipated.

The breakfast was poor, the bread stale, and not much selection.

The rooms, lobby and entire building are clean and have tremendous character.

The room itself,  with painting by Mucha over the bed, and with glorious view towards the church and the square,  was lovely,  and many details offered are quite unique.

Our bed was very comfortable and the room, while not spacious, met all our needs.

When we arrived, the front desk person was able to check us into a room

The rooms were very comfortable, providing everything you need, very quiet, comfortable beds, and just immaculate.

The room was clean and beautiful  with fantastic service each day.

The room was clean and tidy with fantastic service each day.

The attached bar provides a happy hour discount for people staying at the hotel and the sitting room in the back is a perfect place for a quiet time of reading.

The beds were extremely comfortable and the room was clean and ready for me.

Gave me a free upgrade from a triple room to a 2 bedroom apartment on the top floor of the hotel.

I have to say the toilet seat was the most uncomfortable I've ever sat on
.

The only other(very small) con for us, was the heat in the hotel rooms at night time, it was very uncomfortable,

Unfortunately we found the bed to be very uncomfortable.

Definitely not designed for adults and bathing in it was very uncomfortable.

I had a single bed that was uncomfortable and it faced the window.

Happily we were unable to confirm the complaints about "small room" and "lukewarm water" and "uncomfortable beds" from some other travelers all of which we were alerted to by reviews on this site.

The room was very small, the beds and pillows were uncomfortable and the water in the shower was often lukewarm.

The mattresses themselves were so thin and uncomfortable (making my back issues worse) that I had to get up in the middle of the night and pile the two mattresses on top of each other - this actually seemed to help,

But all rooms have very bad  soundproofing - you hear your neighbors especially sounds from bathroom and very uncomfortable mattresses  -thin and tough .

The beds were, in my opinion, very hard and uncomfortable.

The room was extremely small for 3 people and the beds were very uncomfortable.

Although the walls were quite thin (we could actually hear our neighbor snore a couple of times), we slept very well all three nights.

But, what I love more is how thick the walls are.

The walls are very thin and you will hear all noise from other rooms.

And i could hear my parents through the walls, talking next room.

but as the walls in our room seemed paper thin and I had 3 bad nights sleep ( we did stay for 7 nights ) I could not rate it 5 but I could not be nasty and rate it 3.

I had read reviews that the walls could be thin.

The Hotel has a long history, evidenced by many old photos on the walls and in the rooms.

but the interior walls seem to carry the noise and can easily hear discussions from rooms left, right, below and the footsteps above this tends to be a real issue when there are in house parties.

(Don't let gratified walls put you off--unfortunately, they are prevalent all over Prague.)

The walls remain thin and we could hear people in the next room so we used a white noise app on our smartphone to drown it out and slept fine.

Our room was lovely - unlike many hotels in Prague which seem to be going the "ultra modern" route, Hotel Hastal has kept a more old fashioned style - Mucha prints on the wall, brocade draperies, and a warm green color scheme.

While a little dated and our double bed was up against the wall, all can be overlooked by lovely attention at the front desk.

My room also seemed to have very thin walls as everything was heard from other rooms and stairs.

Walls thin could hear people on the phone etc.

Mucha art adorns the walls of the halls and rooms.

However the room was very narrow with the double bed pushed up against one wall.

The only reason why it doesn’t get 5 out of 5 is because the walls were a bit on the thin side

and the room warmed up quickly and became stuffy, and we had no apparent control over the heating or air conditioning (in fact, there was a note on the wall instructing guests to call reception to change either!

and there was enough light in the bathroom to put make up on!

There's a night light in the bathroom so that if someone needs to go in the night it won't disturb those sleeping.
