Very modern and new hotel, located just 5-8 mins walk from a major train station and the old town square, and 12 mins walk from the charles bridge so just by its location it’s definitely worth it. The hotel room was nice and spacious, big bathroom and comfortable bed with espresso coffee maker, very Modern exactly like the photo. Definitely recommended

Good location, rooms needs to be cleaned

The room is smaller than the ones the picture, there was a stinky smell coming from the bathroom but it was manageable, the beds are a bit high from the ground. we got a room with no view but we enjoyed our stay only because the location is perfect

This is a beautiful property in a great location both for many of the “big” tourist sites and for transport. The staff are there to help and will do a great job if you need it. I was a bit disappointed but the breakfast, but the restaurant was under renovation temporarily and I suspect they were limited by that. I’d stay here again without a doubt.

December Break

The Hotel Essence was perfect for our break between Christmas and New Year. It is situated in a quiet spot in Prague but is still within walking distance of the major attractions within the city. Our room was really comfortable and clean with a great shower and a lovely bed. The reception team at the hotel were fantastic and were really helpful with restaurant recommendations, directions around the city and for helping solve an issue that we had. The only negatives and they are minor were as follows 1. No mirror above the dressing table. A "must" for my wife 2. Breakfast was ok, it was plentiful but not great and the dining area was poorly set out
