Stayed 2 nights at the Century Old Town Prague. I was very positvely surprised. It is a nice hotel. A very short walk from the tram station and as you approach the hotel, you can tell already that it's a nice building. I don't regret booking here instead of saving a few bucks and staying at the next door Ibis.
Location
It's smack in the center, near the old town and walking distance from all the sights and touristic sites. There is a big shopping mall next door, for late night shopping (they close at 9PM) with some restaurants and fast food on the top floor that close at 11PM if my memory is good. Plenty of restaurants, banks and bars around, very convenient.
Check In
There was a short wait, despite the three desks being manned but nothing too long. Was recognized as a Plat member and received my welcome drink voucher as well as some discount voucher for F&B and other services. Same as others here, I was told that the minibar content is free of charge.
I organised a full day tour to Cesky Krumlov through the desk and it was very easy. It's all charged to the room. The staff was friendly and smiling.
No room upgrades for me though, but I was not expecting anything, I kinda gave up on Accor haha. I booked a Superior Room, a renovated one from what it said on the website. Was assigned room 409, which is almost opposite the elevator, which is not my favorite type of rooms usually.
Room
Room 409 was really nice. It was indeed renovated and I liked how it was done, simple but chic. The bathroom was.... special. You have to like the pattern and all but I liked it. Big comfortable bed, clean room. There was a welcome letter to my name on the table but no fruits or cakes :)
Being on the 4th floor is not that high up but the room had double windows (despite being old), it was quite noise proof from the street down below. I was facing the road and the tram line. I didn't hear anything when sleeping. I could hear a bit of noise from the hallway but that's about it.
Everything was well designed, plugs next to the bed (because we just can't live without our phones or tablets), plugs under the little desk. So no issues to charge camera, phones and laptops at any time.
Service
No complains about service. Everything was smooth, from front desk to housekeeping to the bar. The tour I organised through them went well as well. Saved me time to book online or call or go to the agencies.
The WiFi was horrendous though, it's so slow. It's fine for sending emails but surfing the web or loading YouTube videos for example took too much time. I think they had a "Premium Internet" option that you could pay for.
