Advantages: Luxury hotel. Brilliant food. Excellent service. Great location. Value for Money! Disadvantages: Having to go home!
through the city to the old town and bout twenty minutes into the journey we swept into the courtyard of the hotel to a brilliant sight.
The hotel was formerly a monastery and they have done an excellent job of retaining the original character of the property. From the outside it oozed sophistication and I was extremely excited to finally be here. The hotel is situated in the MalaStrana area of the city and is more peaceful than the New Town side of the river. Once we had taken in the view of the hotel it was time to check in.
Check In
Check in was exactly what I have come to expect from Mandarin Oriental. As I had arranged a limousine transfer the duty manager was awaiting our arrival at the front door. After being greeted personally he took us straight to our room. On the way we were given more history about the monastery ...
Advantages: Low price paid per night, decent basic breakfast Disadvantages: No tea and coffee facilities inside the room.
Hotel Apollon Prague
Introduction
Having stayed in Prague many times before I decided upon staying at this hotel as it was slightly outside the town centre area of Prague and it did have easy access to the town centre by using trams.
Getting there
From Dejvicka we got the green line metro to Mustek, wencezlas square, then outside Debenhams from Wencezlas square I took the number nine tram which took about 15 minutes on the tram.
Paying for the accomodation
This was paid for in advance using a credit card using www.booking.com. I paid a total of Ł20 a night which was excellent value for money, though I was slightly annoyed as my credit card was charged straightaway for the booking. I was also charged 50 czech koruna which is about Ł2 for breaking the card key to the room. Though all in all I was happy ...
Advantages: Great view Disadvantages: Waste of money
As some of you will know from my other review I visited Prague recently. I didn't include Prague Castle in that review because it seemed like the review was already really long but as it is one of the main attractions.
This review is going to be really mixed because there is so much to Prague castle. It's really like going to a little village because there is so much to the castle and the area around it and if you want to see it all then you'll need to spend the entire day there.
-Tickets-
I bought a Prague Card and got the short tour free on that but if you don't have a prague card the prices are:
Short Tour- 250 crowns (Ł9.22)
Long Tour-350 Crowns (Ł12.90)
You can also pay to get into individual attractions and discounts are available, as well as family tickets.
(Please not that the currency in Prague is changing so ...
