The location is very good because it is close to the train station. The view from the balcony is also very good. The breakfast is also very satisfying. there is no elevator, so it is a bit inconvenient to go up and down the stairs with luggage. Also, the bathroom is very small. Also, it is a bit inconvenient that the hotel tax is under 50 CZK and you have to pay in cash.

The location is great with beautiful scenic view, especially breakfast place has the amazing view. Staff are very kind and friendly and in terms of cleanliness it’s super clean and they cleaned our room everyday. I would definitely recommend to chose Caprice hotel as there destination stay, you won’t regret it. Even train station is just 2 min away from the hotel which is very convenient. For feedback I would advise hotel caprice to keep kettle in every room rather than asking down in the restaurant. Overall, we had a great experience with my family. Thank you.

We enjoyed 3 mights at the hotel and had a spacious superior double room. It opened onto a massive roof terrace. The hotel has a lovely family vibe and the staff was very firendly. 2 minute walk down to the train station made the hotel a convenient place to stay in. And thats what you pay for, the convenience of being so close to town. However i wouldn't say that the hotel is good value for money. It is quite expensive per night with basic facilities. They do mention there are no kettles or coffee machines in the rooms, but at this price, you would expect one or the other as well as free parking. You have to pay ch5 a day for parkkng. I was mostly disappointed by the cleaning charge for dogs, ch50 is extremely expensive considering my dog made absolutely no mess. Whilst the hotel is lovely and extremely quiet, i would opt to stay elsewhere if i am going to spend that much.
