Ramada Prague City Centre - Prague, Czech Republic 

We stayed for 15 nights at the Ramada Grand Symphony in May 2008. We couldn't believe how quiet our room was (in the Carmen Tower) - we slept like babies! The room was comfortable, clean and spacious, but it would have been nice to have had an iron rather than a trouser press (who uses those any more??) and some shampoo and conditioner provided (remember to bring your own!). We had problems with the air conditioning in our first room, and they moved us without problem so very happy about that. The breakfast buffet was great. My only suggestion for improvement is that one or two of the young women on reception didn't seem very customer-focused and were a bit off-hand at times. Overall though, a fab, QUIET hotel in an excellent location for sightseeing and eating out. Would stay again.

Pros: 1. The location is right on St. Wensenslas Square. It's a about a 10-15 minute walk to Charles Bridge and the Castle district. There are a huge amount of restaurants, stores, and things to do right at your doorstep. You are also very close to the Museum Stop on the underground and the main railway station. 2. The staff is helpful and friendly. They also speak excellent English for those of you who don't speak Slovak or Czech. 3. The rooms are comfortable, quiet, clean, and beautifully up-to-date. The showers are hot. The thermostat will make your room as cool or cozy as you like. And the beds are comfy. There's plenty of storage space for your clothing and a safe for your valuables. 4. The included continental breakfast is more than just toast and coffee. It's a full buffett including cheeses, meats, eggs, fresh fruit, breads, pastries, cereal, etc., etc., etc. 5. And I believe they have a free airport to hotel shuttle, but call to double check that fact. Cons: 1. A local phone call costs about $5 and they charge about $3.5 for an hour of internet. If I were you, go to a wifi cafe and make that local call from a payphone. Overall opinion: The location was great. The staff was friendly. The rooms were comfy. And the food was tasty. You can't go wrong with this place.
