Nové Město Prague|0.94km from city centre
Ridiculous staff refused to return stored luggage I stayed at this hotel for two nights. The room, facilities, and the staff who checked us in on the first day and greeted us at breakfast were nice. When I checked out on Friday, Sep 13, a staff member even offered to store our luggage before we asked. Everything was satisfactory up until this point. Later that afternoon, we returned to the hotel and asked a middle-aged male staff member at the front desk to retrieve our luggage. He said we could not get our luggage until 4 pm, pointing to my storage receipt, which had a number 4 on it. I have never heard of such a ridiculous rule or any reason why a hotel would refuse to return stored belongings to their owners at any time of day. It just didn’t make any sense. We repeated our simple request, and my friend added that it was an emergency—we already had a taxi waiting outside (parking was difficult, and it was raining heavily), and we didn’t have much time to get to the train station to catch our FlixBus at 3 pm. Still, the male staff member refused again, with a stern expression, repeating the same nonsensical reason. Running out of time and patience, my friend yelled, “Are you kidding me?” At that point, the staff member finally admitted he was joking and took us to the storage room to retrieve our luggage. We were in such a hurry that I didn’t have the time or presence of mind to confront him further. If the hotel values feedback, I hope this male staff member is made aware that this “joke” was not appreciated and that his behavior was highly disrespectful of our time. Our sense of urgency was clear—if he knowingly decided to “tease” us in that moment, it shows a completely unacceptable level of disrespect. I don’t intend to discourage people from booking this hotel, and it’s unfortunate, as all the other staff we encountered and everything else about the hotel were otherwise excellent. This one staff member, however, turned what could have been a perfect experience into an unpleasant one.

The room has a kitchen attached, so you can cook while you stay with them. Also, there is a restaurant underneath as well. The room is big and clean. Staff are friendly and efficient. The room is clean and provided slippers and bathrobe. There is a lot of cupboard. And there are umbrellas that you can borrow or rent. The location is not at the centre, but it is about 10 minutes walk from the airport shuttle bus stop and about 10 minutes walk to the city centre. There is also a tram station around.

It is very close to the old town (astronomical clock). It's a bit far from the central station, and trams and cars can't enter, so even if you get off the tram, you have to walk a bit, which is inconvenient. The entire room has an old-fashioned feel! I was assigned to the first floor, so the view was a bit disappointing... I guess it’s a small suite ㅠㅜ Breakfast is delicious

I fell in love with the view of the street from our window — it was truly lovely. The location is excellent, with easy access to the city centre by tram number 22. The tram stop is conveniently just across the street from the hostel. Overall, I definitely recommend staying here — and I’d happily come back next time I’m in Prague.

Great locations as only a 5-10 minute drive from the train station depending on the traffic. The receptionist was so lovely and instantly made me feel welcome.

Solid experience. Hotel is modern, clean, spacious and centrally located right by the metro station (A, B). They’re also very big on sustainability which is always good. The room I stayed in was nice and spacious. Clean, sterile, and new looking. Location was also perfect for walking around and sightseeing. Included breakfast was very good, including a hot foods section (beans, tomato, bacon, eggs, etc). on top of usual cold options/room temp breads etc.

The room facilities are good, the parking lot is small, and I found a roadside parking space for two days. The breakfast at Novotel is average, and there are many people in the morning, so you have to avoid peak hours. In addition, the elevator at Novotel is really bad, and you have to wait for a long time in the morning.

The location of the hotel is very good. All attractions in the old city are within a ten-minute walk. The service staff are also very good. The whole building is very old and the rooms have a sense of age. The breakfast is not bad, and the own bar is also very stylish. There are two problems. One is that I booked an executive room but was assigned to a corner room with no view at all. When I open the window, I can see dirty pipe walls... The other is that the hotel is really too old.
