Very good value for Prague and English speaking Jaroslav, the owner, is very nice and helpful. He'll give good tips on how to get around in and around Prague.close

Nice room, at about 15 minutes from the Staromestské námestí by foot. We took the room with bathroom and there were also a little fridge and a washbowl with tableware. The owner was so kind and gave us a map of Prague illustrating attractions and useful places. Highly raccomended

Very clean and very helpful host. The one thing that worried me from reviews I read before our visit was that the apartment faces the street with trams going up and down all night, however in the winter this is no problem as the windows block most of the noise. The only negative thing I could say is the hot water runs out very quickly, there were 2 of us and the 2nd one always had the hot water run out no matter how short the shower was that the first one took.close

Pension Florenc is more like renting an apartment than staying in a hostel. It is in a very convenient location, has a helpful owner and the room was very clean and had a great view of the city. Overall a very nice place to stay.

It is very well situated, a 15 minutes stroll from the centre. Very close, (5 mins) to the lines B and C of the subway and to several tram stops. The room is very large and there is a small common area with a fridge and an electric plate for cooking. Dishes, glasses and everything else to cook is available. You have to pay the full price in advance in cash, in any case the owner is friendly and will understand if you don't have the whole sum the first day. Very recommendedclose

You will get a VERY detailed introduction from Mr. Novak when you arrive... it says free wifi points in the details, but we had no mention of that, plus... no acces whilst there!! The unit is spot on, and great distance to amentities and sites... Very clean..

The hostel was located very near of the centre of Prag. It was possible to go walking, by metro and tram. My room was clean and there was free wifi.I was in a private double ensuite room adn I think the price was cheap. The only negative remark was the elevator of the building, which doesn't really give any kind of security. ;) El dueño se portó fantásticamente. Nos ayudo muchísimo el primer día,nos dió mapas de la ciudad, nos aconsejó donde ir,... El hostal está muy cerca del centro de Praga andando, y aun así es posible coger el metro y el tranvía, que pasan cada muy poco tiempo. Praga está muy bien comunicada. Recomiendo coger los billetes de transporte publico de 1 día,3 días o 7 días etc, ya que sale mucho más barato y puedes coger metro, tranvía y bu. En cuanto a la habitación estaba limpia y habia wifi gratuito. Como aspecto negativo podría decir que le ascensor asustaba un poco. Era como un ataud y no tenía puerta interna, pero bueno, no se puede pedir todo,ya que el hostal era bastante barato. La habitación que alquilé era una "double private ensuite" room.close

The other rooms didn't appear to be occupied when we were there so we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. Everything was clean and comfortable. The tram didn't bother us as we had the windows closed but could be noisy in summer. It would be nice if there was a proper curtain, we only had a net curtain which was see-through at night when we had the light on. The owner was quite helpful, recommending places to go in Krakow but knocked on our door around 10am the day we were due to leave asking when we were going! Don't let that put you off though...Otherwise all was fine and I would definitely recommend as a place to stay!close

My parents and I really liked the guesthouse, and Jaroslav, the owner, was most helpful. He gave a thoroughly illuminating (and enjoyable) introduction to the sights of this beautiful city. Highly recommended!

This is the perfect place for a couple to stay! It's just down the street from the train station and a grocery store and within walking distance of all the major attractions. The place is spotlessly clean and the owner is incredibly hospitable. I would definitely stay here again!

Don't let the poor numbers fool you. This is a nice guesthouse run by, the man, the myth, the legend...Jaroslav! Nice setup, only drawback is it's far from the attractions if you're on foot. Metro is close by, however.

Not for the social types, but decent location, groceries nearby. Fridge and hot plate provided were great (though somebody stole our food). Informative host. No nearby internet was a little bit of a hassle. No TV (we didn't care, but if you did...) Elevator is hilarious.

Nice private apartments with your own living room, kitchen and bathroom. The only bad thing is that there is a tram right outside the apartment so sleeping is extremely difficult as the trams go pretty much around the clock.

This place was great. The owner was incredibly helpful and kind, he even showed us a Czech folk vest and dance! The location was a scenic 10-minute walk to old town square, so pretty ideal. Comfortable, clean, and safe stay for sure.

In our 6 week trek through Europe we found this guesthouse to be our favorite. Jaroslav is awesome, very attentive and helpful, the rooms are immaculate and its an easy walk to everything you'll need. If you're looking for a party hostel scence, this isn't it, but it offers so much more.
