“Wow”

Hotel The Golden Wheel (U Zlateho Kola)

4/4 found this review helpful

We arrived at the Golden Wheel for our honeymoon for a four night stay and got a decent price direct with the hotel that also included free airport pickup and return.

The room was stunning as we plumped for the panoramic suite with views in every direction. The suite is on two floors and is huge, 2 TVs, 4 much needed air conditioning units, 1 main bathroom and 1 en-suite (room 515 by the way).

A previous review mentioned an ipod hookup with speaker in every room, we certainly didn't have it and in the best room at the hotel I'd of thought it would be in there if anywhere. And the wifi in the room didn't work, tried for ages to get it to connect to my wifi mobile phone but no joy - it works fine at home though. The internet room is a good idea although one day I went on to check e-mails and it wouldn't work at all.

Breakfast had a good selection although the fried food was a little disappointing and if you weren't down by 9am you usually got the left overs as it went pretty fast, service at breakfast got worse as the week went on due to different members of staff not reaching the same standards as the first guy set. The room is quite small and you get the feeling that you are on top of each other which we weren't keen on, but others may find this a good way to chat to other parties.

The staff were OK although we didn't really have a need to use them, although the bloke who checked us out on Thursday (29/5) - what a miserable sod he was. Mind, most of the waiters and shop assistants we came across were exactly the same.

Cowboys restaurant was superb if not a tad pricey (£27 for their cheapest Chardonnay?????!!!!). Don't believe all the stories about cheap food and beer in Prague, we never came across any and a typical main course would set you back about £10. Santini's down the road was OK as well but the portions weren't huge so if that is important you may want to look elsewhere.

Location wise the hotel was spot on, nearby to everything and the hill to get to the hotel isn't any real challenge if you are fit and well. Trainers or comfy shoes are a must, we walked around 25 miles in four days and our feet knew it by the end. A must is the palace and do make the effort to climb the 287 steps up the South Tower in the Cathedral as the views are out of this world. You must also visit the Church of Our Lady at Old Town Square - it truly is a magnificent building inside and out.

Overall we loved the hotel despite from the little niggles and would love to return one day.

“Everything You've Read is True”

Hotel The Golden Wheel (U Zlateho Kola)

5 of 5 stars

4/4 found this review helpful

This hotel is absolutely fantastic. Everything you've read is true. The observation point is great for taking photos of the castle and the little roof top garden is lovely with all the roses just about to bloom. Room was first class (the MP3 player jack plug was a useful amenity). Service was excellent. Location was brilliant in a quiet part of town but only 10 minute walk from Charles Bridge and 10 minute walk from Castle. Breakfast was vast! Hotel is half way up Nerudova but I guess if you can't manage hills and cobbles you wouldn't be going to Prague! Have tried hard to think of any negatives, but there are none!

“Quiet, romantic and great service!”

Hotel The Golden Wheel (U Zlateho Kola)

May 29, 2008
4/4 found this review helpful

We are still here and appreciating the hotel for its location, setting and service! Each day we return from touring this wonderful city, exhausted, and appreciate our room at the back facing the castle from the balcony. The mattresses are a bit too firm but that is the only complaint we can come up with! Front desk staff are quick to accomodate with reservations and recommendations. The food at Acadia is wonderful and consistent for breakfast and lunch - a nice change from many of the overpriced, mediocre restaurants around. Just a wonderful place -- we're so glad we chose it!

“What a gem”

Hotel The Golden Wheel (U Zlateho Kola)

5 of 5 stars
Slough

3/3 found this review helpful

Stayed here for a long weekend break in May. Although I knew the hotel was on a hill that did not bother me at all. The views from the back of the hotel to the castle were wonderful. The staff were so accomodating. The breakfast choice was fantastic. I have read many reviews on Trip Advisor and this hotel exceeds everything other people had written. If you are going to Prague and you want a friendly, efficient and within easy reach of all amenities, you MUST stay here.

“Unreal- Great location! Beuatiful room under Castle!!”

Hotel The Golden Wheel (U Zlateho Kola)

May 19, 2008
4/4 found this review helpful

We just returned from an unreal stay to Prague. We picked the Golden Wheel as we read the reviews on Trip Advisor. Thank God for frip advisor as they were right one. The Hotel was beautiful. Very large rooms and great bathrooms. Our view was unreal as we were right under the Castle. The other reviews are correct as there is a little hill to walk to get to the hotel from St. Charles bridge. I thought this was perfect as this was not right in the middle of all the crazy tourists. Close enough to easily walk. It was 5 minutes to the St. Charles bridge and 10 to the square. People were very friendly and the breakfast was included it was great. I travel for business and rarely see service look this. The rating is well deserved and we would defiantley stay there again. This is very close to Cowboys resturant is a great high end steak house that sits on the roof of all the buildings! This place is 200 feet from the Golden Wheel! The architecture and art in the hotel are great and various stairwells and glass elevators are truly unique. They even have a speaker in each room with an Ipod hook up so we plugged right in and enjoyed!!! They also had wireless internet in the rooms which was a suprise. Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and the Golden Wheel does not disappoint. Worth every penny. Check around as rates varied on different sites. Ultimately found good rate on expedia
