Design Merrion Hotel - Prague, Czech Republic 

"New Year in Prague in brand new hotel"
Posted: Mon, Nov 23 2009
We stayed for 5 nights over New Year in this brand new, small hotel. The rooms are modern and stylish, the bed was really comfortable (although made with 2 single duvets which seems to be the norm in Prague) and the shower was fantastic!! Unfortunately the bar and restaurant were not yet open due to the hotel being so new even though they were mentioned in the information, however the minibar was the cheapest we have ever come across. There were no tea/coffee facilities in the room but this was available via room service. Breakfast was a simple, serve yourself buffet affair - but the choice was pretty good. The hotel is located in a quiet, residential area but there are tram and bus stops into Prague centre within walking distance. The buses and trams run really frequently and the night trams from the city centre are roughly every 15 mins and run all night so getting around is really easy. Maps and travel tickets are available to buy from hotel reception. The hotel also offers an airport car. The hotel is close by to a couple of places of interest: Zizkov TV Tower, the grave of Franz Kafka and Zizkov Hill. We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Nice hotel & good location

Stayed at Design Merrion Hotel for 4 nights in March 2008. The hotel was very nice and the location was close to the tram line 9 which was a good connection into the city. The room was ok and the bathroom was spacious and always clean and had a great bathtub. The beds were guite hard, but you were stil able to sleep without having to turn all the time. The location was in a guiet residential area which was good since you could hear the noices from the street throught the windows. If you are a light sleeper be prepared that there will be some noices early in the morning. The best part of the room was the free safe which was really easy to use. We also enjoyed the late breakfast which was served til 10.30 on weekdays. The breakfast buffet's selection wasn't overly large, but everything they served as fresh and they always brought more when something run out. We can also recommend the hotel's taxi service. They charged 750 CZK for a ride to the airport. You paid the money to the hotel and then the driver came and drove you to the airport. Very easy and you don't have to worry how much the driver will charge you. That would of been worth using for also the ride from the airport into the hotel.
