The Hotel Rott Prague is
excellent for any visit to Prague. It offers great rates,
comfy rooms and a perfect location in Old Town.
The building which houses the hotel is well known to locals. It's one of most beautiful buildings in Old Town.
It's so gorgeous from the outside, that we don't even think of it as a hotel.
Take a look at the exterior and you'll see what we mean.
Isn't that fabulous?
But in the end, the outside doesn't determine your comfort.
So here's our peek inside and what we discovered about the
Hotel Rott Prague.
The hotel is maybe
fifteen seconds from Old Town Square, so it doesn't get
much better than that. What's almost just as impressive is
that besides the prime location, the hotel Rott sits
quietly on a little square behind the main square. There's
a lot of foot traffic outside, but it doesn't affect the
peacfulness inside.
So, if you want to book a hotel room in Prague that is
"central," then stop right here. The Hotel Rott Prague is
ideally located.
Furthermore, the hotel is on the Charles Bridge side of Old Town. By that we mean it's closer to the bridge and Prague Castle than other hotels in Old Town. Some other hotels add another 10 minutes walk to the bridge, but the Rott is about 5 minutes from the bridge.
There's a metro station nearby the hotel and a tram stop as well. So you can access many parts of the city from here.
Now, for the record, Old Town is one of the busiest Prague sites. So, if you don't want to be near crowds of tourists, then please consider some of our other central Prague hotels. But, we haven't read or heard about noise being a problem at the hotel.
The Rott has a variety of rooms, small and large. Some of
tremendous views of Prague's rooftops and Old Town.
The hotel also provides plenty of other services and dining options. Here's a look at a few highlights that caught our attention:
Rooms. The hotel offers lots of room options including rooms for single travelers, twin, double and triple rooms as well as five suites for more space or larger groups.
Dining. Rates at Hotel Rott Prague include a hearty breakfast. The hotel also has fine dining options in its French restaurant on the ground floor where there is also a pleasant cafe for sipping coffee or a drink.
Services. For a small hotel in Prague, the Rott seems to go above and beyond with their helpful services. Need tickets, car rental, restaurant reservations or even babysitting? Let them help.
Fitness. Keep
up with your routine with the hotel's fitness room. Both
weights and training machines available. Fees apply.
Amenities. All
rooms include internet, safe deposit box, air
conditioning, mini bar, telephone and hair dryer. You
can order a baby cot for an extra charge.
Parking. If
you're driving, you will find on-site secure parking.
This is a big plus especially since parking is limited
in Old Town. Fees apply of course.
Essentially, you can't go wrong with choosing Hotel Rott
Prague. There's plenty here to like.
We particularly appreciate the level of service and different room choices. Each room is tastefully decorated and fairly spacious. A select few rooms are a bit small, so we recommend booking a double room and larger.
But, if
your budget dictates, then go for a twin room. We were
shocked at how low the prices for select rooms were. So,
look for a deal.
Again, the location is ideal for sightseeing or short
breaks to Prague when your time is limited. The restaurant
downstairs adds to the appeal of the Rott as well.
Our one small criticism concerns the added costs for some amenities. This is a minor point, but many central hotels offer complimentary extras which the Hotel Rott does not.
Granted, their rates are fairly low for a 4 star
hotel in Prague, but we wish they would eliminate some fees.
The parking fees are understandable, but paying extra for
using the fitness room or for having a baby cot seems a
bit strange.
If you stay at the Hotel Rott Prague, please get back to us with your thoughts.
