You cannot get a better place for a hotel in Prague than Hotel Cerny Slon. It's right in the middle of the Old Town. The staff were very polite and courteous. They helped whenever I needed it. I never tried the breakfast buffet so I can't comment on that but the dinner I had was to a very high standard. The room I was in was very spacious and had a lovely medieval feel to it, with it's timber ceiling, even though it had contemporary features. Overall, I would highly recommend Hotel Cerny Slon to anyone that was going to Prague.

The hotel had a great location. The staff were very nice. The breakfast was also great. The hotel was in a old building which the decoration was very unique. The only thing I didn't like was the noise during the night. Due to the location was next to the old town square, there were a lot of restaurants opening very late that the guests from the restaurants were pretty loud. I could hear the guests singing and shouting and laughing at 1:00-2:00am in the morning which could be very disturbing to my sleep.
