Hotel Golden City - Prague

I paid 19 Euro for a single room/1 night. This was more than reasonable price for this kind of accommodation. I needed to be in Prague in early morning, so I did not care about details very much. For one-night-stay and if you are not fussy about cleanliness, noise and atmosphere, it was OK. For a longer stay it is not appropriate. Old furniture, poor lightening, poor bedsheets, even a little beatle in the bed. Though, breakfast was quite well prepared.

The hotel is bad and dirty.

Not quite, street with trams ahead. Need to replace towels, too old!

It was the first time in Prague and i find hotel very confortable,in a good position not far from city center,well-linked by tram(the stop is in front of the hotel)and hotel staff is very kind.Breakfast is abundant.

Was the worse hotel I have ever stayed. The room wasnt ready when we arrived at the hotel. The sheets were old and smelly, bathroom was dirty, it has hair everywhere, the towels smelly. After we return to the room the second day it wasnt clean. The staff knows only one expression We will do our best, but in reality they dont do anything. I dont recommend this hotel...

The hotel was good value for money. The sheets were patched and had a hole in them and I was woken up by a television in a nearby room one night. Other than that it was fine. I was traveling alone.

In General Terms, it was a nice hotel for what we had to pay. I would stay again there.

Only a little problem: the speed of wifi connection is very slow.

REALLY good breakfast and services.rooms very clean and confortable.

It is appropriate for the price and the reception staff are really helpful and speak english. I like walking and I was able to walk all the way into the old-town area each day. I was on the 3rd floor of the alternate-building of the Golden City Hotel, but it was only a small walk across the road to reception and breakfast. The breakfast each morning was great, filled me up. The hotel is in a slightly grottier part of town but fine. There was only one of the two internet portals working. You can walk to the main train station from the hotel or else it is 2 tram stops away.

Not in the downtown but with convenient public transportation, the room was fine for us with large space, which was deserved for the low price.

Perfectly connected with the town centre (4 tram stops). Buy free circulation tickets (1 or 5 days) for public transports. Supermarket close to the hotel (open 7-20) Clean but not good smelling. Abundant breakfast but of low quality. Ratio quality/price very good.

Kind staff, very good breakfast, a little bit far from city center but there is a tram stop just in front of the hotel.

Very good! big room! nice breakfast! tres bien!

I realle enjoyed my stay in the hotel. The room was spacious and comfortable with separate bath and with aircondition. You cannot demand more for the price.

We booked this hotel inspired in the good reviews and the excellent price-quality relationship, and we didn't make a mistake. Very well located, just 2 stops by tram from the Train Central Station and 4 stops from the Republic Square downtown, plenty of shops and even a supermarket across the street (including an amusing sex shop for those who are not so chast). Our room was huge, a little oldie but looked newly refurbished, we had a dining room with a kitchenette, microwave and a fridge. At the front desk, they exchanged Czech crowns at the best rate in town and sold the bus-tram-metro integrated tickets. The breakfast was just amazing, very complete and tasty. My only complains would be that the towels were like old rags, really tough and scratchy; so if you love your skin, you'd better bring your own. However this small detail can't tarnish the excellent overall quality offered by the hotel, we'd definitely stay again!

The staf was nice and friendly. Everybody help me about tram, metro and all kind information. The breaskfast was huge and delicious. I will recomended this hotel to my friends. I stayed in Prague for 10 nights.

Nice place to spend one or several nights. Very friendly personnel, all we've met spoke perfect Russian. Copies of Gustav Klimt paintings everywhere. The only problem is a bit too complicated car parking, but they provide assistance. You can find rooms in Prague cheaper, even in the very center. But if you need to stay in a hotel, this is a nice choice.

Golden City Hotel is very well located regarding the centre of Prague. 4 stops taking many trams!!. The only down side although we were given a very nice suite is that the noise in the street was very loud from 5 in the morning and also the overall cleaning of the rooms was not enough. The personel were very helpful and nice, the breakfast very varied and good. The zone is not a very good one since all the sex shops are on the same street.

Very goog relationship between price/quality, the hotel is located near public transport stop for the city centre, the hotel surroundings are not excellent but very quiet, the hotel provides a very good breakfast.

Total impression is positive! Good location: tram stop is near hotel. 3-4 station and you are in the center of Prague. Small hotel, rooms are quite simple but well. Breakfast was good and fresh. I had no claims to personnel for all duration of stay there. So, this is a very good and cheap hotel in 3* category. If I'll go to Prague I'll choose this hotel again.

Most of the employees, especially at the reception, were very friendly and competent but the service staff in the breakfast area was quite unfriendly and incooperative. The rooms were cleaned every day to our satisfaction but dust covered wardrobes and pictures left a negstive impression.

Nice Hotel for the price , a bit out the way but only a few minutes to old town using the tram (No 9 ) , buy a ticket at the hotel desk for the day about £3 . Hotel was very good value , clean , and the staff were excellent ,very polite and helpful , nice breakfast , only gripe was there is no hotel bar as stated , just a fridge at reception , but even so at 25pence a beer and somewhere to sit its still not bad . Plus side to area was that all bars are cheap round there , just walk a few yards back towards town and theres a great music bar on the left A few tips .... 1. DO NOT use the taxis from town at night , all they need is a stripey jumper and a mask , they will try to rip you off and charge 800 crowns ( £35 ) for a 3 minute taxi !!. the trams are safe , regular and run late , if it essential to use a taxi then the hotel can sort you one . 2. buy a map , simple i know but will save you searching and the maps sold at the info office on jeruselem ave have the tram routes imprinted on the roads including stops so you can plan your journeys .The official tram maps are very confusing . 3.Steer clear of the bars and cafes in the old town square and wenceslas square , they are a con, a fiver for a COFFEE OR A SMALL BEER ! . Go a few streets away and the price drops to a quid . Most bars around the garni except the sport bars cost around 80 pence for a large beer . All in all a nice hotel , lovely place and dont forget to visit the castle !!

Price/quality excellent..i suggest to improve breakfast...anyway 8/10.

Everything was OK, thanks for the stuff.

When we checked into this hotel we were sent across the street to a sister hotel. There was a large group of young people checking in right before us and the front desk lady told us we would be more satisified over there. Was quiet but worn. I've stayed at nicer hotels for the same money. Transportation to city center was easy and several good resturants down the street. The Porno shop directly across the street was alarming but we had no problems. I really don't consider myself a mature couple but maybe those checking in before us would.

Too noise. Too people talk and play near the room. The smoke is available outside room... smoke smell into the room

First of all, it never happened to us that an hotel obliged the costumers to pay in advanced like they made to us for the 6 nights we stayed there (they made the same to all costumers!...) Second: the room don´t have any correspondence with the photos from the web site. We stayed there in the loft... Third: we arrived at the room and it was completey dirty (many hairs in the floor and so on); and we didn´t notice any changes in the next days!; the bath room didn´t have any soap or shampoo for all the time... Forth:The sheets were very poor and never saw the iron; the bed (the mattress) it was not confortable Fifth: The breakfast was quiet good...(the only thing good we find it there in Golden City Hotel

The surroundings weren't as touristic as we would have liked. Trams stop 10m from the hotel so it's easy to get to city center. Breakfast and kindness of employees are their best charateristics.

The hotel is well located, near the main railway station and the town center. By tram you can go everywhere (for instance, 26 + 119 to the airport). Rooms are clean and nice. Breakfast is very good and internet is free. My room was in front of the street, and was a bit disturbed by trams.

It was terrible. The reception service is too bad. One day there was no water at the hotel and we had to go to a truck to get water our selves and take it to the room. the reception man is so unkind and rude. Finally he gave us the key of other room in front of the hotel so in that way we could take a shower there, and then we had to croos the stree with our things in a bag.....The hotel does not have a emergency service for that situations. The neighborhood is no too nice either. Really bad experience.

Buon Hotel per un breve soggiorno a Praga con un discreto rapporto qualità/prezzo.Buona vicinanza con il centro raggiungibile in 10 minuti con il tram.Colazione discreta e la signorina alla reception è abbastanza disponibile nel fornire indicazioni. Da evitare le stanze dell'ultimo piano che sono nel sotto tetto e nei mesi caldi non sono molto vivibili. La pulizia lascia un pò a desiderare anche se nel complesso è un hotel che si può consigliare vista anche la sua posizione e i prezzi non molto alti per essere quasi nel centro di una città come Praga.

The accecptance in the reception was really bad, unfrendly.Another important thing is that i will never ever come in your hotel and i will tell to my friends about your bad reputations.

Everything was perfect!the hotel is close to the centre. Only the receptionist (a girl, dont remember the name) was always in a bad mood and not so kind!

The lady at the reception was not very kindly, I ask for some solutions for my problems and she didn´t give any solutions. Staff should be more interested in to solve the customers needs and help them to make the stay easier.

Good experience, nice and welcoming rooms, the quality of the services offered was fairly good and corresponded to what it was advertised. The hotel was very well connected to the city center and all together my staying was good. I would go there again. It is a confortable and safe place to stay even for a lonley traveller.

If you travel by car you will be surprised by the parking, BUT there is parking. The hotel is very nice, clean enough, with the nicest cosy breakfast room. Moreover he is only 4 stops by tram to the city center. The price for the room was perfect.

In front of a tram line stop, there is 5 stations from the center of Prague (Venceslas place and tram works every 30 min all nights. Employees speak english and are very friendly. Rooms are clean and spacious. There is only one bad point : the noise of the trame line, under the windows of hotel but it's quite pleasant!

Not a bad hotel, but in a very scary area. Lots of sex shops around and a sex house in the back. Room spacious. Old bathrooms and windows. Cleanliness OK. Breakfast abundant, but everything tasted awful. Receptionists mood changes from guest to guest. Found it difficult to get tram tickets in the tabacco shop as nobody else outside the hotel speak English and the guy sold us 5 children ones and didn't accept when I tried to return them. Overall, it seems much nicer in the photos!

Oltre a pulizia, colazione ecc. ritengo che anche educazione e gentilezza contribuiscano al giudizio finale, e perciò ritengo il Golden City mediocre.

Eccelente la colazione.

Vicino al centro (solo 4 fermate di tram), pulito, stanze piccole, ottima colazione. segnalo un ottimo servizio di trasporto da e per l'aereoporto (con mercedes per sole 600 corone in 4 max.)

The hotel was basic but had everything you need for a short stay and was clean. The breakfast was excellent. Whilst the hotel is not in the most select of areas, we found this to be a bonus. It was nice not to be in a really touristy area and we ate at a couple of the local restaurants which were much better than those in the centre. The restaurant Sklep, which is on the main road into town (one stop on the tram if you're being lazy!) was excellent - good, cheap authentic food. I'd read it was walking distance to most of the main sights, although in all honesty it was further out. This was not a problem though as a tram stop is right outside. The trams are very frequent and cheap ansd it's quite fun to be able to hop on and off all over the city (get a day ticket). Overall, not fancy, but good value and fine for a few days away.

Hotel ok per chi vuole spendere poco ed ottenere il massimo.

Fuimos un grupo de cinco amigos, y estuvimos muy satisfechos con este hotel, buen emplazamiento y muy fácil de llegar al centro histórico.Habitaciones limpias y espaciosas. Solo una pequeña queja, está al lado de una calle bastante transitada, con lo cual hay un poco de ruido nocturno.

The most positive things were the cleanliness of the rooms, the competency of the staff, able to speak english, and the huge breakfast buffet. The worse: there is not air conditioning, so we had to open the windows during the night, and the street is quite noisy. General rate: 8

We stayed in a double room for three nights. Breakfast is very nice. Coffee tasts good. The noise of tram is a little bit noisy when we open the window. Hotel's security rock of the main entrans feels us very safe.

Siamo una famiglia con due figlie maggiorenni(18.21)ci siamo trovati bene perchè avevamo la fermata del bus(n.9) davanti all'hotel che ci portava in centro in dieci minuti. 30 minuti per chi vuole camminare. Abbiamo organizzato dall'hotel il city tour in lingua.

L'albergo è vicinissio al centro molto accogliente il personale.Ho speso 12 euro al giorno di garage per la macchina e la mia stanza era sul lato della strada quindi difficile dormire comunque la colazione è eccellente e nel complesso il rapporto qualità prezzo è davvero ottimo. Anche se con qualche difetto lo consiglierei.

Do not choose this hotel if you do care about the quietness. It is too noisy during the night even with the closed windows. For the rest it is correct: good breakfast, easy access to the city center (4 tram stops), secure box, car rental with low price.

Nice hotel,few minutes to the centre by a tram. Arriving to Prag by Bus better to take a taxi to the Hotel.Good place,good price and nice people.

Very nice hotel... good breakfast!

Not the best experience at this hotel - firstly horrible directions to find the place! The front desk man not very friendly at all, demanded we pay up front - the credit card machine failed to work (apparently!), so he wanted us to pay cash - which we did for only one night, then paying on checkout the card machine was miraculously working when the other lady used it!! no a/c so needed to have window open - the trams run ALL night right outside window - VERY NOISY! even though we had requested room away from street! no sleep. Surrounding area not that nice - directly opposite the local erotic shop!! one very nice older man who helped us with our car was the only good thing!

If you arrived late by trains, you should arrange for the hotel to pick you up instead of using the tram. The train station area seems a bit scary. The cab will ask for about 23 euros, but it should be about 8 euros. I paid 10 euros. I believe the hotel will go cheaper so it is better to use the hotel service. The hotel indicates that it has Laundry service, but it doesn't. The Laundry was broken months ago, and it has not been fixed. They won't tell you where else to go. The hotel in general is friendly and helpful except one front desk receptionist. She is a little bit rude, but still nice comparing to how rude the customer service people are in Prague.

This is a really lovely hotel, with just one problem. The staff are friendly + helpful. The rooms are kept fresh and clean. There is free Wifi. It is 3-4 km to get into town, but the streetcar runs every 5 minutes and goes directly into town and the Charles Bridge. The only problem is the Nudel Bar across the street - TERRIBLY NOISY - I was kept up until 3am on two nights of my stay. The hotel called the cops and risked their lives fighting it out with the bar managers and patrons. But this battle has been going for 3 years, so it may not change. We're talking pumping music and shouting hooligans in the street. If they can fix this problem, this is a great hotel.

Good for its situation although it is a little far from the center ( bus and tram are close ) ... rooms are clean, breakfast is simple but good for the price, breakfast staff is friendly... You can use free internet ... The only problems are : very noisy rooms because of trams passing nearby ( from 5 am to midnight ) and staff at reception is not really welcoming !

Good quality of service. Friendly and helpful staff. Best breakfast on our trip of 2 weeks in 5 cities. Easy access to sight seeing areas. Room facing street may be noisy in summer time if you have to keep window open. Hotel signage not easy to locate.

I had the most amazing night, thank you all

We've had a very nice staying c/o Golden city Garni. The employees are so fine, expecially Maria who is always in good mood.

Very close to tram station. Good breakfast and great price.

Well located, rich breakfast, helpful staff. Ecellent value for money, very convenient to reach the center because the tram stop is in front of the hotel. The only thing is that the towels were awful (must be used more than 10 years!!!)

It is a shame that hotels don't make the whole floor non-smoking, not just the rooms. Easy tram access to centre city, handy to one train station. helpful staff

Breakfast was included in the price although we were not sure at time of booking, and it was an excellent continental breakfast with lots of choice. Free internet was available in reception, there was a seperate internet room but they were not working. Very close to a tram stop. We had a family room on the side of the building and could only hear the trams slightly but from conversations from other guests the rooms on the front were noisy. Reception staff very informative and spoke enough English to understand each other. We were greated at the airport by an arranged hotel taxi which made our arrival at the Hotel quick and able to get into Prague for the remainder of the day. 5 mins walk to TV tower, spectacular at night. 5 min on tram to Old Town Sq.

Absolutely an excellent hotel(impossible to find better at this price!!!).staff is very kind,available and professional.good location,with the tram-stop just out of the hotel(excellent).our room was a triple-room and it was right.garage for car is just front of the hotel,and its price is 7,9 euro for night(i know because i got praha from italy by car).i suggest this hotel at all. BY AN ITALIAN BOY

Excellent value. Large spacious rooms, great breakfast and internet available. Very close to the tram. Staff was very helpful upon arrival and even emailed us before we left on our trip to offer directions to the hotel. Our experience at Hotel Golden City helped to make for a wonderful experience in Prague.

As it was written in other comments, very well located, four tram stops to center wih line 5 or 9, the old city.;also one cheap restaurant near the hotel..postcards+stamps(nicer than in towm and cheaper) and tram tickets sold at reception, internet for free..breakfast was very complete...the front desk manager is excellent for the infos she provides...I will go back to the hotel when I go back to Prague..the hotel proposes a taxi transfer from the airport to the hotel, 20 euros otherwise just take the bus 119 to the end and then take the tram 26, stop next to the hotel..direct!!!about 45mns

I BAGNI SONO MOLTO PICCOLI ABBIAMO GRADITO MOLTO GLI INTERNET POINTS GRATIS. IL BREAKFAST E' ABBASTANZA COMPLETO LA FERMATA DEL TRAM E' VICINISSIMA ED IL SERVIZIO TRAM FREQUENTE E PUNTUALE.

I was travelling with my girlfriend. The hotel was very nice: near the tram stop (about 50 m.) at 10 minutes from the centre. If I would came back to prague I'll choose it.

Very friendly staff. Free use of internet! Breakfast was abundant and delicious. Tram stops at the front of the hotel: within 10 minutes you are in the centre of Prague.

At the price that we paid, the Golden City was a pretty good deal. Though it is not in the most fashionable part of town, it is directly on a tram line that makes it very easy to get into the center of Prague. The breakfast was quite good, with the exception the instant coffee. But at $60 USD per night, we could afford to frequent some of Prague's nicer coffee houses! All in all, a good value and pleasant enough place to rest between excursions in the city.

This hotel was so hospitable and accommodating!! Our friends arrived by over-night plane from Alaska and were allowed to check in early and partake of the breakfast buffet upon arrival. The staff is friendly and competent in multiple languages. The breakfast buffet was large and delicious and the hotel encouraged you to take food and beverages with you tot he room or for a mid-day snack by providing to-go bags. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. The reception provided tourist information, booked concert tickets and taxis and exchanged money at a favorable rate for us. The tram stopped right in front of the hotel (which wasn't noisy enough to keep us awake at night) but it was only a 20 minute walk to the major sights downtown. A great place to stay if you're a first time visitor to Prague and only have a short stay there. The quality for the price just can't be beat!

Very good hotel! It is within walking distance of Prague centre and tourist areas, about 20-45mins (depends of how fast you walk!). Although the trams are so easy and cheap to use walking is not required. 3 trams stop right outside the hotel and run about every 5-10 mins. Hotel staff very helpful, nothing is too much trouble. The rooms etc are very clean and well decorated. Oh, and the minibar is very cheap! All in all this is a great hotel in Prague for a great price.

Bonne situation géographique à quelques arrêts de tram du centre-ville. Chambres bruyantes (lignes de tram, murs peu épais). Petit-déjeuner copieux et varié.

Very good quality x price. Very clean. Good breakfast, but orange juice not so good.

MUY BUENO EL DESAYUNO, Y LA ATENCION EN EL MISMO PERO NO ASI EN LA RECEPCION DEL HOTEL

This room was very nice, and the price was great. The tram line runs right in front of the building, so it is easy to get around. The staff was good to give directions. The only negative about this place is the amount of cigarette smoke you have to endure in the common areas, except the non-smoking breakfast room. The breakfast was excellent.

Sehr gute Lage Straßenbahnhaltestelle direkt vor dem Hotel. 4 Haltestellen von der Innenstadt entfernt

I stayed at the golden city in september 2006 for 4 nights. you definitely can not walk to any sights; however, the tram is right outside the door so very convenient as you can take any one of, i think, 4 lines which run every few minutes. it was clean and reasonably priced, but i would rate this a 2* establishment, not 3*.

The hotel was quite good, the employees were very kind and helpful. There was internet available for free in 3 computers located in different rooms of the hotel. The breakfest was ok. The hotel is located at the side of a tram stop were you can get trams to the city center (~10 min) and also to the aeroport (~45 min + a bus that leaves you at the terminals). This is very convenient but has a side effect: the noisy at the rooms! I was in the last floor and still could hear the trams. But only a problem if you are very sleep-sensitive. Overall a good option in Prague that is a fantastic city!!

The hotel is well located. Just 4 tramstations from downtown. There is a garage for cars just in front of the hotel. The relationship between price and quality is OK.

The bathroom is very narrow and also the room under the roof is small. the breakfast is OK. by tram you can reach easily and quickly the center, but the hotel quarter is not so good in the evening.

Room very spacious and clean for the price. Front desk manager very nice and helpful. Only problem was noisy group of young people in room next-door and in the hallway (walls rather thin).

Hotel comodissimo, con 3 fermate di tram sei subito in centro. in reception si possono acquistare abbonamenti tram. servizio di cambio vantaggioso rispetto a uelli che si trovano in centro. colazione ricchissima. da consigliare per l'ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo.

El hotel esta bien situado y comunicado; los tranvias que pasan por la puerta (sobre todo el 9) tienen una frecuencia grande y no hay que esperar mucho, en la noche el servicio es mas espaciado. Cogiendolos en 5-10 min. estareis en la Pza. de San Wenceslao (centro) pero podeis seguir y empalmando con el 23 subir al castillo y la zona historica. De todos modos la atencion del personal de recepcion es fantastica os indicaran lo mejor para desplazaros ademas de indicaros la situacion. Tambien podeis comprar entradas (Opera, conciertos, etc) los billetes para el transporte, o cambiar moneda en la recepcion. El desayuno es bueno y variado. Creo que lo mejor del hotel es la atencion de todo el personal (eso si os atenderan en ingles como en casi todas partes) recomendable.

L'albergo è veramente vicino al centro, il personale è squisito e la camera confortevole: nella nostra oltre al mini-bar, c'erano anche un forno a microonde e una caffettiera elettrica. Molto comodi anche la cassaforte nella camera e l'accesso ad internet gratuito. La colazione è internazionale e molto abbondante. Unica nota: il prezzo che abbiamo pagato era un'offerta. Come si può vedere dal loro sito (http://www.goldencity.cz) il prezzo standard per una doppia è di 90 euro, mentre noi ne abbiamo pagati 54. Ah, dimenticavo che anche nel letto matrimoniale ci sono i piumini singoli.

Golden City is very good,only 3 tram stop from the hearth of the city and the tram stop is only tuo steps from the door of the hotel.The director is very kind and there is a garage for your car. The rooms are very large and cheap,in the morning there is a big and good breakfast. We reccomand Golden City Garni

I wish European rooms would include room fans in the summer

Reception staff were very good and welcoming! the rooms themselves were very dusty and unclean. he hotel was in a good area with trams stops out side but its in a very noises area.

HOtel ideale per visitare la città, a pochi passi dall'entrata c'e' una femata di tram efficentissima ,passa linea 9 per il centro,più altre linee ,e 2 sono quelle notturne. L'albergo offre un'ottima colazione a buffet, il personale e' disponibile e gentile e parlano tutti inglese. L'albergo dispone pure di un mini bar, vendita tabacchi, e cambia pure i soldi. Dispongono di un servizio taxi interno. Ci siamo trovati molto bene.

Excellent hotel would go back

We are surprised by the lowest price(only 15EU for pp), super big rooms and convenient facilities in the room. The staff all are welcome and helpful. By the way, the great breakfast is excellent and choiceful.

Excelent relation price/quality. Rooms fully equiped ( TV, safetybox,TV, frigobar, etc). Staff & Manager always able to solve visitors request in a very good mood. Close to centre of city, 15/20m walking, 10m by tram ( in the same block of the hotel ) Breakfast for all the taste & customs ( included in rate ) I strongly reccomend this Hotel if you don't need luxury but you requiere very good services and a fair rate !!!

The Hotel was close to the inner city. 8 minutes with TRAM to Wenzels Place, 20 minutes to the kathedral. The employees were very helpful an competent. The price was o.k. but you should not expect to much! Breakfast was included. Coffee was terrible! I would choose it again.

This is the hotel to consider

Although it was not in the heart of Prague it's a great location and very clean. The people were extremely helpful and friendly. The tram runs right in front of it making it very convenient to get around. The hotel was clean too.

Nice hotel , good localisation , staff very nice and competent... price/quality is ok

4 tram stations to center of town, good welcoming, but it is noisy because trams and the road.

Se mai dovessi tornare a praga questo sarebbe l'hotel in cui starei nuovamente.

Some persons make a noise at night damage!!!!

A very good place owing to the price
