Stayed at the hotel from 22.07 to 24.07 in a double room with a friend. On 23.07 in the evening, when we went for a walk from our room 121, an expensive camera worth more than $ 2000 was stolen. Windows and doors were closed. The police at the reception were called only after I insisted, when they arrived they found that there were no surveillance cameras in the corridor and the door did not automatically close the first time, you just need to slam or press harder. … More ▾ Stayed at the hotel from 22.07 to 24.07 in a double room with a friend.

The police made a report and left. There are suspicions of unscrupulous workers who clean the rooms. The camera was small and lay without a lens on a bag with other expensive photographic equipment that was untouched. At the reception, they only sympathized and could not help with anything else.

Check in went well, we were given a nice room. There is a fitness center on site, but for an additional fee for guests. Nearby there is a stop for trams and metro. Walk 30 minutes to the main attractions. Nearby there is a shopping center and many cafes. The rooms have newly renovated bathrooms. Wi-fi in the rooms is paid (24 hours cost about 300 rubles). … More ▾ Check in went well, we were given a nice room. There is a fitness center on site, but for an additional fee for guests.

We arrived at the hotel at 9.00, check-in at 14.00. At the reception, they offered to pay 20 euros, for our room, to check in earlier. Wi-Fi is free only for the first 20 minutes, which are provided only 1 time, for the rest of the Internet pay.

Early in the morning we left for Vienna, asked for breakfast to go. We were offered to pay 20 crowns for each. The money, of course, is not great, but why should I pay a second time, for my own breakfast. For reference: we asked tourists living in other hotels in Prague, this was not the case anywhere else. The hotel has the lowest exchange rate compared to all of Prague.

We were in Olshanka during the New Year holidays, the hotel is average, you can live, but we were settled in a smoky room first. The window didn’t even open in the room, and it was after a heavy night flight, the lack of towels finished off - a small scandal and the room was changed to a Suite, but this is of course a luxury suite) They said that it was only for one night, then we will change the room, ok. … More ▾ We were in Olshanka during the New Year holidays, the hotel is average, you can live, but we were settled in a smoky room first.

The next day, they offered the same smoky room from the options as it was or pay 10 euros extra per day, chose the second option, but it didn’t work for the price . . apparently 10 euros went to the administrators’ fund, oh well, they didn’t touch us anymore and okay)
About the room: Of the accessories, only a three-in-one product for washing different parts of the body and towels, two per person, slippers, toothbrushes, no, we don’t know this) In the morning we understood why this suite is a large terrace overlooking the park, beautiful)
The furniture in the "luxury" is better than in the standard, it seems to be bigger . . )
Housekeeping is nominal, trash thrown out and towels folded neatly.
We already wrote about thin walls, we got neighbors with noisy gays who did it all the time... no matter what time we came
And about breakfasts, well, I don’t know why some are unhappy . . for this price it’s quite for itself... well, only the juice was like Jupi... but you can not drink it . . )) in general, I strongly doubt that the houses are just so refined and a variety of breakfasts among the people, in order to sort out grubs here...
The hotel is conveniently located, it’s good to get there, but even for this money you can find better housing in the same area with the help of a well-known booking site from which it rolls for a visa. ) In general, we used to travel to Europe on our own and the desire to pay tour operators for sloppy smoky rooms somehow not)) I just remember it all with laughter)
And advice - when you are going on a trip, then ask where you will be accommodated and ask questions on the shore.

I really wanted to see this hotel, and the info tour from Amigo-tours gave me this opportunity. Why I wanted to see it is very simple: the reviews of my tourists who have been there differed strikingly from "never again" to "now only there. " The location, of course, is not very profitable: you can, of course, walk to Vaclavak, but who wants to, because then you still have to walk around the center! On the other hand, this is a really cheap hotel, you can't argue with that. … More ▾ I really wanted to see this hotel, and the info tour from Amigo-tours gave me this opportunity.

The location, of course, is not very profitable: you can, of course, walk to Vaclavak, but who wants to, because then you still have to walk around the center! On the other hand, this is a really cheap hotel, you can't argue with that.
The building is very large, even a swimming pool fits here. It costs some money. Here, in general, everything costs some money, even a box for an early breakfast. On the other hand, if you don't want it, don't take it. It reminded me of the "Economical" hotel from "The Adventures of Dunno": if you want a pillow - pay a santik, if you want to save money - sleep without a pillow.
This hotel has a big plus, which we often chase, for example, in Turkey: family rooms of the "block" type, where there are two bedrooms, and each is equipped with a door that can be locked.
The interior, of course, is retro, from the eighties. But this can hardly be called a minus.

Stayed at this hotel during a trip to Prague. I chose it because it is close to the center, opposite the hotel there is a tram stop, 4 stops to the center. And the price for this hotel was very good. About the hotel itself, a bit old. More like Soviet hotels : ) The TV in the room is old, but the room itself is clean and so are the linens. … More ▾ Stayed at this hotel during a trip to Prague.

The TV in the room is old, but the room itself is clean and so are the linens. Surprised by good breakfasts, I thought it would be worse : )
I give the hotel a solid four!! !

Good day to all! We went to Prague for the first time, everything went a little spontaneously with us, so the hotel was chosen quickly and spontaneously at the agency, and then I just read the terrible, soul-chilling reviews about this hotel, but, thinking that it would pull with beer AFTER Becherovka, let's go. … More ▾ Good day to all! We went to Prague for the first time, everything went a little spontaneously with us, so the hotel was chosen quickly and spontaneously at the agency, and then I just read the terrible, soul-chilling reviews about this hotel, but, thinking that it would pull with beer AFTER Becherovka, let's go. Yes, I agree they meet the facade "ala USSR 1978" by their clothes, but they immediately met well, the staff speaks Russian, everyone understands both in the lobby bar and at the reception, the three of us rested: friends in a double, and I myself in a double, double bed, large, orthopedic mattress, snow-white linen pleasantly surprised, perfectly clean white pillows under the pillowcase. The bath and toilet are separate, yes the toilet is for dwarfs, but the shower is new, very spacious, but there is nowhere to put soap and shampoo, and they are not in the room), so take both soap and shower gel with you! Lived on the 8th floor overlooking the TV tower and the park. Towels were changed every day, even knowing that I was alone in a double room and paid for one, they changed all 4 towels))), the room was cleaned well, every day, even neatly on the first day they put my things together, which I threw on the excursion in a hurry beds. VERY convenient location of the hotel. Directly at the exit from the hotel (less than 30 meters) there is a tram stop in many directions, 10 minutes to the center, and a supermarket and metro station 3-5 minutes walk from the hotel. We were fed for slaughter, as for me it’s good, we didn’t come to Prague for breakfast, but what made us very happy all the time was fresh hot, there’s no such thing that at 09.00 only boiled eggs remain, and the coffee machine was with three types of fresh coffee and a machine with juice, and soups, and cereals, and 2 kinds of dishes, and salads, and fresh yoghurts, cheese and sausage slices are replenished all the time! For dinner opposite the hotel there is an excellent restaurant of traditional Czech cuisine with democratic prices. Actually, we returned to the hotel late without feeling our legs, always after 24.00, and before leaving we returned at 02.30 at night, and by tram, they go there around the clock, but keep your pockets, steal, just warned the girl at the bus stop), tickets are better buy, fine for ticketless travel 40 EURO. In general, we flew for impressions of this amazing city, and not sit in a hotel! In addition to all the excursions and main attractions, if the company, ALWAYS take a walk around Prague late at night, even if you walked during the day - it's an indescribable feeling to walk from the empty Charles Bridge from noisy tourists to the Old Town Square with the astronomical clock! At night, Prague just bewitches! We had a small problem with the return transfer and we had to contact the agency, but to a pleasant surprise, they gave a mobile phone at the reception and called 3 times to different numbers absolutely free of charge. I want to go back to this city, have a nice rest.

What three stars? ! This alleged hotel does not even deserve the name of a hostel. A university hostel is more comfortable, believe me.

A university hostel is more comfortable, believe me. This is some kind of soviet ZE-Cattle, we have long forgotten, I thought, and where ? ! In the centre of Europe. Standard double room - its name is "Come out, I'll come in. " Sideways along the crib, along the wall - and you are at the TV. Fall, do not be afraid, the crib - here it is, you rest against it with your legs. Guys above 180 cm have nothing to do there, because the heels hang from the pioneer beds. Blankets - insulated handkerchiefs: The chest is covered - the legs are cold, or vice versa - to choose from. Hairdryer, shampoos, shower gel - it's really superfluous. There is nothing to say about the mini-bar, kettle, of course, three stars, three bright stories. But hooks in the bathroom at least for towels, clothes could be! And this, pardon my French, there is no ram. Closed the toilet lid - you can use it as a shelf for clothes. No, we understood that we had gathered late, the choice was small, this and that, not the Hilton and not the Marriott, of course. But the travel agency knocked out 560 EURO on the snout in 7 days for THIS !!!! ! There is no sound insulation - we knew how intense our neighbors' sex life is from below, above and on the sides. They also knew everything about us, or almost everything. Leaving the room, I preferred to look at the floor, so as not to meet anyone's eyes. Kind of dark. Towels were changed, yes.... for tips. Change of bed linen during the week, according to the hotel - is an unaffordable luxury. Therefore, wash yourself more carefully (with the means brought with you), do not eat in bed, but there seems to be nowhere else to settle down in the room. Is it in the bathroom, but there is also an ambush with supporting interior items. Oh yes, you will be promised free Wi-Fi. So they lie too. There will be none in the room. You can buy a buggy one for 10 EURO per day, you won’t sit in the internet, you will constantly reboot. Well....... in fact, "Wi-Fi" is the same as "hotel". Well, breakfast is another story. There are no juices, even chemical ones, in principle, no, they do not offer. Coffee and tea are made in the same color - light brown. Baking is proudly called sliced ​ ​ gray bread, light gray bread and bagels, born with me about the same day. There are already 2 types of sausages: long, thin and thick, short, but they are chopped into even shorter pieces so that the tourist, God forbid, does not overeat. Yoghurt in a bowl, portioned butter, sliced ​ ​ ​ ​ from one type of cheese and one type of sausage of a variety of commercials of the 3rd or completely unsorted. Well, the highlight of the program is boiled eggs. "Excellent" included breakfast. Every day we went to "admire" this masterpiece of hotel charlatanism and "proudly" went to the lobby bar to eat, alas, for our hard-earned 10-15 euros for the snout orange fresh, salad, coffee, scrambled eggs, well, what else is there at will . In short, the rest pipets, how successful. Remember the name, please Congress And Sport Olš anka Hotel, Praha 3 and God bless you to be there even for a day. I wish you good luck and don't be fooled like us.

We were in Prague at the beginning of June, we chose the hotel purely by chance, and did not regret it. Let me tell you right now, we are not picky people! Number: we got a room, well, just "royal"))))) he was on the second floor and there was only one. Very big, clean and cosy. Yes, there is a problem with sound insulation, well, in principle, like everywhere else, there were in many places and in all hotels there was practically no sound insulation. … More ▾ We were in Prague at the beginning of June, we chose the hotel purely by chance, and did not regret it.
Let me tell you right now, we are not picky people!
Number: we got a room, well, just "royal"))))) he was on the second floor and there was only one. Very big, clean and cosy. Yes, there is a problem with sound insulation, well, in principle, like everywhere else, there were in many places and in all hotels there was practically no sound insulation. For us, this was not a hindrance, since they came to the room at almost 12 at night and immediately went to bed.
Cleaning: cleaned every day, no complaints about cleaning.
Meals: Breakfast was pretty good. Different types of meat and sausages, jams, butter and what else, I didn’t really look at it. Soup was every morning, hot is always different, or potatoes, rice or pasta, boiled eggs and especially delicious Bavarian sausages)))) excellent pastries)) In general, you won’t stay hungry in the morning)))
Internet: that's the problem with the Internet in the hotel, of course. Free only 20 minutes a day and so slow. But there is a great alternative to this Internet, next to the entrance to the hotel there is a pizzeria where there is wifi, free and fast))
Opposite the hotel there is a cafe where you can eat tasty and inexpensive, you could also eat pizzerias near the hotel, the prices are excellent and the beer is inexpensive)) there is also a tram stop opposite the hotel, honestly I have never used it)
The first day in Prague was spent with benefit) if you leave the hotel and turn left and left again, you can get into a wonderful park (the view from there is mesmerizing) where the locals walk with their dogs. We got on the day when the beer festival was held in this park, it was great.
Also, if you walk uphill from the hotel for 5-7 minutes, then go to the metro, we constantly used this particular type of transport. There are no turnstiles in the subway. Travel cards were bought directly in the subway from the machine. We met the controllers only once, they checked travel tickets, we always had them, but if you are caught without a ticket, you will have to pay a very decent fine and this will be fraught with the fact that within 5 years you will not be issued a Schengen, so people buy travel cards, because these far can appear at the most inopportune moment.
So the hotel justifies its price.
It’s probably not worth writing about Prague, since you need to see it with your own eyes, an insanely beautiful city that you want to come to again.
Prices in Prague, in principle, do not bite, they took about 40 thousand with them, they brought back about 10 thousand, and this despite the fact that they didn’t do anything to themselves, they ate in the most expensive restaurants and went everywhere and went shopping.
Excursions: even on the bus we were given brochures with excursions, the prices for excursions were scrap. So I advise you to go everywhere yourself, since in Prague you can do it without problems and much cheaper. We made it easier, at home we marked the places we want to visit and go to the metro)) everything is close and accessible, don’t get lost)) from the central station you can get almost anywhere in Europe, be it Paris or Barcelona) we only have time left to visit Karlovy Var. 40 euros fought us round-trip tickets, and an excursion, for example, costs 40 euros per person, so you save money.
That's probably all))) if you have any questions, write with pleasure I will answer))

After reading various reviews, I was prepared for the worst, but the hotel turned out to be decent. Rooms are clean, furniture and fixtures are simple but new. Only the carpet had a healthy stain and there was no shelf for shampoo/gel in the shower. But from the minuses, in general, everything.
Cleaned and changed towels regularly. The room was warm, there was always hot water, at least at half past six in the morning and in the first hour of the night. One of the days the bulb in the chandelier burned out, they changed it without any problems.
The TV set has one Russian channel, like RTR - the planet. But to be honest, I turned it on once, and then to look at Czech television.
They don't speak Russian at the reception, but they understand.
The breakfast is quite good, everything is fresh and tasty. several types of cheese, sausages, sausages, vegetable salads, once there was a fruit salad, eggs, one hot dish, several types of pastries, yoghurts, muesli. The menu was not very different every day, but we didn’t have time to get bored in a week, but we ate enough so that later we could run around the city while it was light and not think about food. Juice, as it seemed to me, divorced. Coffee is also watery, but in general, an ordinary americano.
Once we took breakfast with dry rations. Gave two sandwiches/hamburgers stuffed with sausage, cheese, pickles and tomato slices. Waffle in chocolate, juice bag, apple.
A few more words about food. opposite Olshanka there is a good restaurant Olshe, the prices are very economical, the portions are just gigantic and everything is delicious. And on the same side as Olshe, supermarket Albert, another Albert in a shopping center near the Flora metro station (5 minutes from Olshanka), compared to our prices in stores of this level, prices here are cheaper. At least, it is unrealistic to buy one hundred grams of sliced ​ ​ ham or cheese from us for 18-24 rubles (from 11-13 crowns), and there are such prices. Beer from 12 rubles per half-liter bottle (from 7 crowns)
Quite close to the center. It takes 20 minutes to go to the Powder Tower, I timed it by the clock - along Taboritskaya, which goes into Seyfertova, and then into some other street, and so walking almost in a straight line, you get to the tower. It’s about the same to Vaclavka, only you need to turn from Seyfertovaya to Opletalova. Go along Opletalova just to the middle of Vaclavak. It takes 15 minutes to walk to the main railway station. We often drove back by metro, managed at the most economical rate for 24 crowns and from Smichov, Andel metro.
As a conclusion, I don’t know when, but I will definitely return to Prague, so as not to run along tourist routes with a map at the ready, but to calmly wander through the streets of a fabulous city where time has stopped, and where you don’t feel that it’s the 21st century, and that this is the capital and a million-plus city, it is so intimate, cozy, calm, fabulous. And when I arrive, I will not have anything against stopping in Olshanka again.
