The hotel has everything you would expect from the 4* hotels. The personnel is trying hard to be extremely polite and helpful. It’s located just 350m from metro station Pankrac in area of new business sky scrapers. The hotel has 16 floors with restaurant and span on the topmost one. Higher floors offer good view to the city. From northern side one can see Visegrád and Petřín observation tower. Rooms are rather spacious with wardrobe, mini-bar and safe. The safe is opens with a room key, instead of usual code, which is rather insecure.

 

Bathroom with bathtub and equipped with hair drier. The working table is pretty large, but covered with glass. This looks very good, but rather impractical. There is no lights from ceiling in the room. Just a table lamp and torchere in the corner of the room. This leaves working table in half darkness, nice cosy atmosphere, but makes it harder for one’s if you have to work for long time with a laptop.

 

Room has 2 sockets next to the table and one socket next to the bed. There is a TV in the room, which one can watch from the bed.
Room service is very good. Internet WiFi connection is also superb.

 

Breakfast is slightly simpler as for 4* hotel. Scrambled and fried eggs, bacon, small sausages, fried potato, cheese and sausage plates, yogurts and several types of flakes. There is also some selection of pastries. I liked koláč with poppy seeds (a round type of open pastry).

 

Hotel has a gym, which has pretty basic equipment. Just 500 meters from the hotel one can find a Central Park, where an outdoor gym is located.
If you are tourist bear in mind that it will take 16 minutes by metro to Visegrád, 25-30 minutes to Old Town Square and 30 minutes to Prague Castle. Public transport works extremely well in Prague and is easy to use.

 

Arkady Pankrac shopping center is located just in front of the hotel, which houses many shops and Albert Hypermarket. Another big shopping centers include, but not limited to Nový Smíchov (metro Anděl) and Westfield Chodov (metro Chodov).
