If you want old-Prague charm, try U Tri Postru right on the castle end of the bridge.

''U Tri Pstrosu"
FYI, aparently this is the spelling for that hotel 
-- Be aware some of the comments on TripAdvisor mention that there is no elevator and it is a four story walk-up. So if you have lots of heavy luggage you may want to request a lower floor or go for a different hotel.

Thanks for the spelling correction. I'm amazed I remember anything in Czestina. Anyhow, the hotel has a porter for your bags. When you see it you won't be surprised it doesn't have an elevator. It's several hundred years old! I guess I should add one disclaimer. If you get one of the fabulous corner rooms overlooking the Charles Bridge, and it's a weekend night in the summer, you may be kept up til 2am from the loud chatter of tourists walking across the bridge after a night of revelry.

I booked the Cloister Inn via the BA Holidays website and received a great rate for a stay a couple months ago for my daughter and I. The Cloister Inn was clean, neat, orderly and well situated. The inclusive breakfast was exceptionally well done and there was a high speed computer terminal in the lobby for the free use of guests. There is a Tram stop 5 minutes walk away and the Charles Bridge is less than 10 minutes walk. The rate via BA Holidays was better than other booking mechanisms that I checked.

Marriott / Renaissance
Stayed in Marriott and Renaissance Hotel in Prague(-East) in April/May this year.
Centrally located (opposite of each other, walking distance to Powder tower) and usual first-class comfort (nothing exceptional, however - the Marriott is slighty better than the Renaissance in Prague, IMO), you can try with Priceline (around 90-130 USD/night); Moevenpick Hotel (4 star in Priceline) should be very fine and in nice location as well. (Prague-West)
Check for hotelscoop.com for hotel photos of Marriott & Renaissance.

While I didn't stay there, both the Marriott & Renaissance are very close to the stop for the airport van (which is also next to a major metro stop - Nameski Republicy). The van costs 90kc and runs every half hour to the airport.

Can we get more of a report on the PRG Intercontinental? What sort of upgrades do they give to Platinum Ambasetur members? I was also thinking of the Hilton, but I am told it is not very centrally located. Are there other web sites that would be recommended for browsing hotels in Prague?

The Intercontinental forum has a thread on the Prague property.

Can't remember the exact name of the van, but it is very easy to spot. There will be signs outside the main terminal. It is just a small mini-van--but it does have its name boldly printed on it's sides. Very easy trip to the city center this way, and the Marriott is about a block down from the stop. Upon exiting the van, go to your right to the corner of Neveski Republiski (sp), then make a left (same side of the street) you'll come right to the Marriott about a block down (you will see the Rennaissance directly across the street from it). Here's the link for the shuttle:
