The hotel is located in an amazing spot right in the heart of Prague's Old Town, making it incredibly convenient for sightseeing and dining. Our room was modern and clean, but I felt uneasy with the separate sleeping arrangement for our daughter down the hall.

Overall, it's a solid choice for a family visit, but the room layout and dining area lighting could use some improvement.
