My husband and I had a wonderful 3 day stay in this hotel. It is exactly as described by others. The rooms are beautiful, the owners very welcoming and hospitable. The location is perfect, just far away from the Charles Bridge to be peaceful. Very close to the castle and monastery. Breakfast was lovely and there are lots of seating... More

Our family of two grandparents, two parents, and two teenage boys spent a delightful weekend in Prague at this lovely house. The host, Mr. Jan Rippi, his wife Charlotta and son Jacob were so welcoming, gracious, and concerned for our comfort. We were greeted with fresh coffee (delicious), maps (accurate), and directions on what to see (all very interesting) and... More

As requested, we were met at the Prague airport by Tomas Rippl, a son of the owners of this fine B & B. After exchanging a few words in English, we discovered that Tomas is perfectly fluent in Portuguese & has visted Brazil several times. So after the long flight from Brazil, we were taken to the "Big Boot" &... More

Stayed for 4 nights at the start of May. We booked the hotel's transfer service from the airport to the hotel, and right from the start, our hosts were friendly and welcoming. Location wise, I think it would be hard to beat. The old town streets were frenetically busy with tourists day and night, and the area round Wencelas Square... More

I come to Prague regularly for work, and typically bring my family with me so that they can have a vacation. We always stay in the House at the Big Boot. In fact, it is one of the best B&Bs I've ever stayed at (and I've stayed at a lot of them). The biggest plusses for me are: 1. Big... More

Our family stayed here for 2 nights in May. Our hosts were fabulous and gracious, very helpful. We stayed in the first floor flat (2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms). We loved the breakfast: breads, meat, cheese, coffee, tea, plus egg & bacon. The location was wonderful for seeing Prague. Our hosts arranged a pick up for us at the Main... More

What you can expect: - Large room with antique furniture (Brass Beds and Ceramic Fire Place) - Safe location, in embassy area - Near to Prague Castle and Charles Bridge ( better than staying on the other side of the river) - Very friendly hosts - Modest Breakfast More
