not bad, but the ladies on the front desk, maybe except one were wearing jeans, which I do not find very professional to a 4* hotel. One of them was having her baby with her too. Breakfast was very poor. For a 4* star hotel, the breakfast was a disappointment. I stayed in this hotel 4 years ago and the breakfast was outstanding, this time, the quality was more for a 3* star hotel. In the night, there was no lightning in corridors, we reported it to the front desk and they said they will switch the light on. I understand in post covid times, doing business is difficult, on the other hand saving money in wrong place. Wifi connection weak
We feel like we hit the jackpot staying at the Golden Wheel. We got a cheap Uber from the airport straight to the hotel which is understated but positioned on beautiful cobbled street. The street is on a steepish hill (bear in mind if you choose to walk a lot) but located within a really short distance to Prague Castle, but also a short walk to Mala Strana for shops and restaurants, or a really cheap Uber into the city centre! The staff were helpful when we arrived with directions and where the attractions were which was nice! Our room was spacious and had a separate dressing table area which was perfect. Bathroom spacious and and nice decor. The only thing we missed was a duvet but that’s just a UK comfort! Breakfast is limited but nice selection of food which seemed to be replenished quite often. I have already recommended this hotel to my family and friends, and wouldn’t hesitate staying here again on our next visit!…
The Hotel is really nice, we had a small suite with terrace and the room is really spacious and very clean. Staff is really helpful and friendly, speaking good English and fluent Russian. Breakfast is ok, good enough to fuel up before the way down the hill. The location is good, with several Embassies, lots of restaurants and souvenir shops, but keep in mind that hotel is located almost on the top of the hill, below Castle, 5-7 min. walk uphill from the tram station, though nothing dramatic. Certainly recommend it if you don’t mind walking. Also keep on mind that some of the rooms have no elevator access so if you’re traveling with heavy luggage you’ll count those stairs, like we did.
Just returned from a really enjoyable 4 night stay at the Golden Wheel Hotel. Situated on the very picturesque Nerudova Strana in a quiet area of the city, half way up hill (so beware anyone with mobility issues). 10 minute walk to the Charles Bridge and 5 minutes to the Castle.(at the top of the hill). This is a relatively small and wonderfully quaint hotel with not very many rooms. We (2 couples) were in the top floor of the hotel with rooms opposite to each other. Rooms 411 and 412. This was perfect for us. Plenty of storage space in the rooms, large bathrooms. Room 412 had stand alone shower and 411 had a bath with shower over it. A kettle with a selection of teas and coffee available in the rooms. TIP if you are like me and enjoy English black tea then bring your own tea bags and purchase milk in a supermarket. There is a small fridge to store drinks etc. Hairdryer also available along with travel size Shampoo, shower gel, cotton pads/buds and shower caps. Staff in the hotel are very friendly and helpful. We were able to get directions/travel route and purchase our tram tickets from reception. Breakfast was perfect for us. Selection of cereal, fruit, spreads. Croissants, bread/toast, pastries, scrambled egg, frankfurters, cold meats and cheese along with fruit juices and tea/coffee. Lactose free and almond milk were provided by hotel. Breakfast was 8am - 9.30 am. We stayed over St Valentines Day and there were two little loveheart boxes of chocolates left by the hotel in our rooms. Very nice touch♥️ Rooms were very warm but there is an air con system if you need it. …
Have just returned from a 4 night stay at this lovely hotel. Very pleasant welcome ( I think receptionists name is Polina, if this is wrong I apolgise). Room on fourth floor accessed by lift. We were on a birthday trip and there was a birthday card and small gift waiting for me in the room. Room was very spacious and clean, as was bathroom. The only comment I would make is that the only English speaking channels on tv are news. As we were out of the room most of the time it was not an issue, I just like to watch a bit of tv at night. If this is an issue, i would suggest bringing a suitable device. The breakast was continental style with eggs and sausage. There was plenty to choose from. The hotel is in a perfect location for sightseeing and is just 5 mins walk from the tram and 10 mins to metro, both of which will take you all over the city. We purchased a 3 day travel ticket for about £10 and this can be used on all trams, buses and metro ( also Petrin hill fenicular). Hotel is on quite a steep, cobbled hill so may not be suitable for people with walking difficulties. All in all a perfect hotel for a city break. One word of advice, avoid the mini markets next to hotel. Goods here are about twice the price of other shops ( we fell for this the first night before we had got used to the currency) and 2 out of 5 items were over a year out of date. We have no hesitation in highly recommending this hotel and hope to return.…
