Prague / Accommodation / Good Value


 

An adorable pocket-sized hotel that is worth every penny for those who value charm and personality, which is exactly what you’ll find in this 15th century Gothic-style building. And when something is this charming, it’s also difficult to capture. The hotel only has 12 rooms, so book in advance. But if you’re lucky enough to get a reservation, you will appreciate the homey and warm feel that its small size bestows. Another perk is that it is located on the best street in Prague for finding local fashion designers’ and interior designers’ boutiques.

 

The Ibis is not renowned for its typical Prague architecture, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. This chain is devoid of character for a reason—the identikit details you can find in all the Ibis hotels mean that you also get an amazingly cheap deal. Some hostels in Prague are more expensive, and without the hotel-style cleanliness. The location is only a few blocks from the city centre, so walking is definitely an option.

 

Don’t expect chocolates on your pillows and foie gras on the room-service menu. This is a bare essentials kind of stop, but it’s superb for those on a very tight budget. If you’re a traveller who just wants a clean pillow to lay your head on and would prefer to spend your money on other things in the city, this is exactly your place. No froufrou amenities, but it’s located in the city centre on a quiet street, guaranteeing you a good night’s rest.

 

At 'The Three Drums’ you are so close to Old Town Square that your [address] might as well be the Astronomical Clock. The rooms here are warm and cosy and seem quite individual, giving you the feeling that you’re staying in a family home. And although this hotel could charge a lot more for its rooms, the price is honest, which makes you feel more like a guest and less like a duped tourist.
