"When choosing a hotel in Prague, you should choose one in the Old Town, near Charles Bridge. There is an astronomical clock in the central square on one side of Charles Bridge. Standing in the central square, I feel that in some cities in China, the business atmosphere is very strong, there are many tourists, and it is noisy to live here. The other side of Charles Bridge is relatively quiet, and trams pass by from time to time. The hotel we chose is on this side.
Environment: The hotel is a castle transformation, with a yard, divided into different buildings, very quiet at night, and very close to Charles Bridge.
Room: The decoration has a certain age, very clean, the room is also large, and the bathroom has a bathtub and a shower.
Service: Every night when I return to the room, the waiter has already pulled down the curtains, laid out the towels, and placed the slippers. It feels very good. Zoe Chan, the front desk staff, is polite, thoughtful and patient.
Breakfast: Fruits and bread and pastries are self-service, and the rest are ordered from the menu. Bread and pastries are really incomparable to Paris, and they are not delicious. Although ordering food can guarantee quality, it is very inconvenient for foreigners. We wanted to drink a cup of hot milk with oatmeal and nuts. The first time we got a cup of oat milk, the second time we got a cup of yogurt filled with oatmeal and nuts. We had to give up. Fortunately, the other orders were basically delicious, and the fruit plate was very sweet.
Food recommendation: 1. Figure 8 Chimney ice cream, choose pistachio flavor, it is delicious and has won awards. Don't buy the one near the Central Square, it is extremely unpalatable. 2. Figure 9 This store's roasted pork elbow with pickled radish is delicious. The most unforgettable one is the breaded pork elbow minced pork with pickled cabbage hot dog, which is extremely delicious and has a large amount of food. Order as appropriate. If you can't make a reservation, avoid queuing during peak meal times, such as going before 17:00."
