Hands down the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in- and the night before I arrived I was at the Sofitel Grand in Amsterdam for $900 a night- and Hotel Nerudova outshines them in EVERY WAY.
First off their location is perfect- it’s across the bridge from the super crowded and extremely touristy Old Town- but this section is every bit as old- you’re steps from the Prague Castle, St Vitus Cathedral & Kafka’s house- which are all stunning and cannot be missed. It’s a more elegant neighborhood- close to an amazing city park. You have restaurants, coffee, shops and a market super close but you don’t have to be thrust into the center of every tourists from the globe. Now let’s talk about the room. We had the two bedroom two bathroom option which was at an incredibly reasonable price and was the largest hotel room I have ever seen- definitely making it a suite but at a motel room price. The beds were huge and so comfortable- even touches like a large resting pillow and then a regular sleeping pillow are thoughtfully planned. The television already signed in to Netflix in multiple languages so you didn’t have to even set the language you just had to pick your language. Showers were hot, towels fluffy, coffee, tea, sugar, creamer, a little mini fridge, a tea kettle all provided.
The staff are possibly the most attentive people I’ve ever met, my own mother would be pleased with their care. They even did my laundry free of charge which I begged them take some money for but they wouldn’t. You can come in anytime of the night, leave your bags- have the full-service option of the hotel but it still has a homey Airbnb vibe but so elegantly decorated- not cheap furniture here- antique wood sitting tables, nightstands and bed frames- The old and the new married and a glorious display. Real oil paintings on the wall, Persian carpets on the wood floor. The marble bathroom floor is heated on demand, the room was the PERFECT temperature the entire time- but there are radiant heaters on every wall and HUGE OLD BEAUTIFUL double shuttered windows in every room- I really am not kidding when I say this is the nicest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. At some point they’re going to make that room $3000 a night. Stay here before that happens and even after that happens because it’s worth every penny.
