    Our stay at the Prague Expres was very enjoyable. We had a excellent, recently updated, large room which we very much appreciated. The location is great and we will book again if we return to Prague.

    It was a pleasure to have visited your city and both of us enjoyed it very mush. There was plenty to see and do during the day and eating out at night was good.

    Positives

    • Lots to see and visit in Prague. Easy access to all visiting sites and wonderful tour guide of the city.

    Negatives

    • Activities for night time not good unless you were going clubbing or to a bar for the evening. More cabaret shows or similar (not strip joints) would be good.

    good evening, we had a very good stay in Prague.
    we will come back, sure, because we could not see everything we wished to see or visit. We are very impressed by Prague. Merveilleux. Overwhelming.


    If you have a list of hotels with garage/
    we are interested.
    We have ideas about coming by car..
    A friend wants to have your taxi service from airport to hotel vv, is that possible ?
    please inform me and she will send an order by email.

  • Carina Svensson (Mature couple), Wed 18.7.2007

    At first we got a room with damp and told the reception that we wanted to change. We got a new room the sekond day and that room was ok.
    The transfer worked perfect. The man who drove us told us about Prag during the trip and we also got a map.

    Positives

    • It's nice to have breakfast brought to the room, and a big breakfast too.
    • Nice and helpful staf.
    • Safetybox in the reception, which was open 24 hours, felt good.

    Negatives

    • One of the young men i the reception asked us several times, when we should pick up the key, if we had left it earlier.
    • That felt most unsecure!

    We`re very pleased with the service the young boy at night when we had a break in to our hotelroom and our passport were stolen.
    The only complaint I have, is that I do not think it was right that we should pay full price because of this happening. Obiously someone in your staff is not a good person!
    Otherwise we were happy about the location and the rooms. The cleaning were not of the best.

    Positives

    • Great location, nice room

    Negatives

    • school in backyard a bit noisy.

    I loved this place. Fantastic location, quiet street off a small square; very short walk to old town, Mustek metro, Narodni trams. Just next door to decent exchange office and nice little ice cream shop.

    Nice low price, compared to the other places around it.
    Staff was very willing and able to help with all sorts of stuff.

    I'm hard-pressed to think of anything bad about the place. I was in room #2, on the courtyard, no noise in the morning. There was more noise in the evening from guests (show me a quiet motel on a Saturday night and I'll show you a dying business).

    Breakfast was more than simple continental: 2 cereals, milk, juice, yogurt, water for coffee or tea, bread, sliced meat, cheeses, jellys, snacks. I was saving stuff for picnic lunch!
    If you want a large hot breakfast you should dine out; plenty of good pubs and cafes within a block.

    I loved the bed: not too low, and very firm (I prefer it that way, though others may not ). Only had 1 sheet/blanket, but I never asked for more.
    My room had 2 single-beds (side-by-side), only one made up (I asked for a single). Small bathroom (by american standards, not cramped) with shower, no bath.

    OK, there's a sex shop across the street. Talk about a dying business: I never saw anyone stand outside, let alone go in. The street was peaceful and uncrowded, very pleasant.

    Positives

    • location, location, location!
    • great price, good service

    Negatives

    • no breakfast room or built-in restaurant

    I stayed at Hotel Prague Expres for one weekend. I was looking for a hotel located in the centre, somewhere between the Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square. Hotel Prague Expres has the location I was looking for. If you want to stay 1-3 nights in Prague, this is the ideal hotel. The rooms look really nice and clean; the staff is very helpful and polite; the breakfast (although they don't have a restaurant/breakfast room) is excellent (milk, juice, tea, coffee, bread, ham, cheese, cornflakes...and something sweet :-))).

    I read the reviews before booking the hotel and I knew the hotel will be at least decent, but I had a really nice surprise: the hotel is excellent and the price is affordable. I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends. I will come back to Prague and I will certainly book a room at Hotel Prague Expres.

    Hotel was in an excellent postion. Walking distance to just about everything - Charles Bridge, Old Town, Lesser Town, Wencelas square etc. Never used a taxi or tram.
    Excelleent Restaurants in vicinity. Hotel very clean, Basic rooms but great value for money for the location. Staff very friendly.
    Breakfast provided in your room, continental style which is fine to get you started in the morning.
    Overall very good.
    Used the transfer service of A Prague to and from the airport, an excellent service for very cheap. Very punctual and the driver - Josef was full of information/tips.

  • Jeannine Antypas (Mature couple), Sat 7.10.2006

    We enjoyed our stay and both David at the Desk and David who took us to the airport were wonderful.

    Unfortunately, when we arrived on September 23rd, we were only signed up for one (1) room. If you check our reservation, we had reserved two rooms. Our friends, the Richters, were coming by train in the evening. When they arrived, there were no rooms available.

    David did find a room for them around the corner and they did find a room at The Expres Hotel the next night.

    Positives

    • Desk person was wonderful. David helped us with train reservations, restaurants, concerts and directions!

    Negatives

    • breaksfast was good but there was too much.
