Enjoyed my stay. Rooms are very clean and the beds are comfortable. The breakfast was wonderful. Several options to choose from and all very fresh. The location was perfect with the Old Town being about a 10 min walk. A lot of restaurants and shopping near the hotel.

A wonderful base for exploring Prague Hotel Essence was a brilliant choice for our family trip. The room was spacious and well-designed — perfect for travelling with young children — and the breakfast was tasty and a great start to each day. The staff were genuinely helpful throughout, and the location on Senovážné náměstí put us right in the heart of things without the noise of the tourist centre. Highly recommended and we’d happily return. Want any further tweaks?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
