Great value
The room was surprisingly quiet and peaceful, despite facing the riverside road instead of the river itself. The food in the restaurant is quite delicious, I highly recommend the pork cutlet Prague style. Only complaints - WiFi only works in restaurant/bar, which closes at 11 unless there is a large group occupying it. Parking is unattended, and they take pains to explain they are not responsible for any damage -- yet it costs an extra 100 CZK per day. Bottom line - you get what you are paying for, the location is a 15 min walk to the heart of downtown, and rooms are cleaned/turned over daily.

Two weeks on the boat
I stayed 18 days in Botel Racek. You get fair value for what you pay. The staff was fine and easy to communicate with. Just the restaurant on the terrace is kinda pricey in compare to the other restaurants around, but you pay for the nice river view. The shower in the washroom is really small, you can hardly turn around there. I was there in summer so the room was really warm with no A/C.

It's a vacation trip. It was a nice trip except that the hotel room was a consistent headache even away from it. The hotel (Botel Racek) room was small but acceptable, but the bathroom was confined in tiny cubicle, with a shower place at a corner is too small to turn my body around without touching either a wall or a dirty shower curtain. And the water from the shower splashed all around the tiny cubicle. It's very distressful, I greatly regret that I chose this one. I even thought about how it can be remodeled to have any tourist. Well. It's a disaster.

Dining tip:
Short walk from hotel
The nearest (and ahead of the hotel in the direction of traffic move) tram stop is Kublov, and just one before is Podolska. At the intersection of the Podolska stop, there is a restaurant called Negatif whose walls are decorated with posters of old US movies including the East of Eden. This place is not for tourist but for locals. So it serves good food in cheap price. I ate there twice instead of eating at the tour sites like the Castle and teh Charles Bridge, etc. A plate of pork neck, and a place of grilled trout, with a glass of Czech beer and a bottle of water, and 2 sides, cost only 485 czk (which is close to $30.00). Another thing: Do not exchange dollar/euro to czk in the street nor in the nice office Exchange place. Go to a bank. Or jsut use your credit card. Rate is much better. The street exchangers and office Exchangers charge commissions and fees and all others, so you do not know how much you receive for the sum you give.

Boat ahoy!
Great service, small room, older property, semi-convenient location, low quality breakfast. Same as it was when we stayed here before. The uniqueness of a boat, the view, and the ducks brought us back.

Gutes Hotel wenn man ausser einem
Gutes Hotel wenn man ausser einem Dach über den Kopf keine besondernen Ansprüche hat. Die Lage an der S-Bahn ist super und der Preis ist auch sehr ok. Die Angestellten sind sehr freundlich nur das Restaurant un das Frühstück sind zum vergessen. Aber wer das nicht brauch findet hier ein gutes Preis/Leistungsverhältnis.

Die Beschreibung verspricht "Dieses
Die Beschreibung verspricht "Dieses von einer üppigen Gartenanlage umgebene Hotel bietet komfortable Unterkünfte und unübertroffenen Service,...." Das Service im Bordrestaurant ist sehr sehr schlecht. Oft wird man einfach ignoriert (dasscheint aber ein weit verbreitetes Phänomen in Prag zu sein und kann einem in vielen Lokalen in Prag passieren.) Die Mitarbeiter bei der Rezeption hingegen sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wenn man einen kurzen und preiswerten Trip nach Prag machen will, ist man aber auf dem Botel Raceck nicht schlecht aufgehoben. Da hauptsächlich Jugentliche dort schlafen sind die anderen Bewohner auch nicht ungehalten wenn noch um 4 Uhr früh Party gemacht wird.

Wenn man einen kurzen und preiswerten
Wenn man einen kurzen und preiswerten Trip nach Prag machen will , ist man auf dem Botel Raceck gut aufgehoben. Das Personal ist freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Service im Bordrestaurant ist schlecht. Man wartet schnell eine stunde bis man bedient wird. Es empfiehlt sich also das Botel Racek nur zum Übernachten zu verwenden. Das Frühstück ist ok, aber nichts besonderes. Weiterhin ist es auch von Vorteil , dass man sein Auto gleich vor dem Schiff kostenlos parken kann. Die Tramlinien 3 und 17 führen direkt am Boot vorbei. Die Linie 3 führt zur Karlsbrücke und zum Hauptbahnhof und die Linie 17 ins Zentrum und zum Bahnhof Holovice. Vom Bahnhof sollten man nicht mehr als 300- 400 Kronen zum Hotel bezahlen. Die Taximafia versucht des öfteren 25 Eur dafür zu verlangen was viel zu viel ist.
