Did not meet expectations.
Pros:

Some staff were very friendly, but said they were unable to help us with an air conditioner that was exceptionally noisy. Said to open window and offered a fan, that air conditioning was not advertised on website. However, it never occurred to us that in 2026, we would need to ask IF THERE WAS AIR CONDITIONING. We were not offered a change of room. Bathroom was not fully functional, no counter space, shower stall was barely four square feet, could not turn around. Overall room size was also small. Not what we were expecting for a 'Superior Double Room'.
However, the breakfast meal was excellent.

We loved our stay at the King Charles and will definitely book again if we return to Prague.
Pros:

This is a heritage property with old world charm. Our suite was massive, and we loved the painted ceiling and beautiful artwork. The breakfast room whilst small had everything we needed. The property is within walking distance to all the major attractions and being so close to the castle was an extra bonus. The property also has a lovely front room where you can relax to wait for a late flight pickup.

Cons:

The mattress was on the firm side so may not suit everyone.

Roligt og smukt
Pros:

Indretningen og stemningen var helt særlig! Og så lå det så smukt lige ved slottet. Meget roligt om natten. Lækker morgenmad.

Cons:

Jeg er 180 cm høj og sengen var lidt kort til mig. Det var svært at styre temperaturen i badet.

Prague family break
Pros:

I would highly recommend the King Charles Hotel. First class service from all of the staff. We were looked after very well and also had use of lounge for our family (10 adults) get together. Lovely large rooms with plenty storage. Good selection of hot and cold items for buffet breakfast. The hotel is on a hill near the castle, but don't let that put you off. An easy walk down to the main town and cheap taxis available for going back up. Definitely recommend staying here.

Pros:

Das mittelalterliche Ambiente des Hotels - tolles Treppenhaus, bemalte Balken im Zimmer - fanden wir wunderschön.
Sehr gutes Frühstück, freundliches Personal, gute und ruhige Lage direkt unter der Burg und nahe am Strahovkloster, aber weniger geeignet für Leute, die bergauf Mühe haben.

Cons:

Leider wurde an 2 Tagen hintereinander (bei 4 Übernachtungen) das Zimmer nicht aufgeräumt und gereinigt trotz Aufforderung durch das "Schildchen", so dass der Nachtportier das Toilettenpapier und Handtücher besorgen musste.
