Stats

Aside from the building work (which aside from one of the lifts not being in service, didn't affect the hotel as far as I was aware, even when in the check in area I didn't notice any disruption noise wise) I was really impressed by the hotel, the building was at some point used by an insurance company, no less than the one Franz Kafka worked for which clearly the hotel are very proud of, room 214 in the hotel was once Kafka's office!

No sparkling wine at the Mgallery but the welcome offered on top of the free mini bar was nontheless impressive

Check In

I accidentally checked in 2 hours early due to a misunderstanding after checking out of the Ibis next door, despite this they were able to accomodate us straight away and were great in offering to organise a cot for the baby, I was given a slip with my room key telling me that as a platinum member that 'the entire mini bar was free (including snacks, i double checked that one!}, I could have free use of the pool and gym at the ymca across the street, as well as discounts on laundry and the restaurant', on top of this I also recieved a drinks voucher

Room

Room was nice, I'd not stayed in an MGallery before so had little idea of what to expect but there was a nice sitting area and room for the cot (which doubled as a play pen so fairly wide} next to the bed.

 

Service

I was impressed that even with a later check out included in the rate I paid they were able to extend the checkout again

I was able to redeem my free drink after checkout, alcohol wasn't included which as I don't drink it didn't bother me, what surprised me was that I was offered 2 drinks, the voucher said 2 drinks were offered for double occupancy but I wouldn't have counted the baby as a double occupancy free drinks wise! I did take them up on their offer, the inclusion of strawberry juice in their selection of juices was too tempting to pass on, so it joined the coke I'd already requested

Dining

Breakfast was included with the rate booked, immensely enjoyed by both self and the baby, good hot food offering with eggs cooked to order, enough pastry choices to suit most people {some i recognised more i didn't) ham and cheese offerings were good, although I didn't have them the cereal included porridge of more than one variety, the fruit selection was better than have seen in a while, the baby really enjoyed pineapple, two types of melon as well as crossiant and jam

I'd naively hoped that they might have had highchairs, so I then had to go back up to the room to get the pushchair which i stupidly hadn't brought down originally

Location

It was pretty much next door to the Ibis Prague Old Town so convenient again both for the cheaper snacks and the convenience for sight seeing, incidentally for the area I was next planning on visiting (the former(?) Jewish quarter) they were very helpful in showing me a quicker and far more convenient route than the one Ibis had proposed, the map MGallery offered was easier to understand, another plus

Overall

If I hadn't been able to pick up the offer at the Ibis I would have stayed here all 3 nights of being in Prague, as on an individual per night basis without an offer they worked out as the same price, however the decision of having one 'treat' night was well worth it
