“A Good Stay”

Hotel Julian

4 of 5 stars
Chicago
Jun 17, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

I just returned after a three night stay at the Hotel Julian in Prague. First the bad. The hotel's location is not exactly central. it is about a 5 minute walk and then a 10-15 minute tram ride to any major attraction. The hotel is near some decent restaurants, but the area surrounding the hotel seemed slightly sketchy (however, I should note that there are strip clubs and casinos all over Prague). All of this being said, I think that the location shouldn't be a major turn off, especially considering the value of the hotel.

The good. The staff at the hotel was very kind and helpful. They were very good assistance in booking tours and the front desk staff was always willing to render assistance. The rooms, while not 4 star, are very comfortable and large in size. For the price of the room, I felt like the hotel was a good value. There is also a tiny Irish pub in the basement of the hotel, where we had dinner on our last night at the hotel. We found the food to be good and the little pub to be a nice place to spend the evening.

Overall, I found the hotel to be a nice, welcoming place to stay. I would recommend it to fellow travellers, but include the caveat that the location is not completely central.

“Ideal for weekend break”

Hotel Julian

Jun 3, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

We booked this hotel through Airmiles after reading reviews here, and we were not dissappointed. Ideally situated literally round the corner from tram stop (trams only 10 GBP for 3 day pass) but only 10 minutes walk to centre. Despite very busy city centre the hotel is an oasis of calm. Hotel transfer, arranged by emailing hotel prompt and quick, 1200 czeck crowns in total return (approx 40 GBP) Room fine for city hotel, staff extremely friendly and helpful. Lockers available to hold luggage for your last day after check out, perfect and secure. Breakfast easily enough to make lunch unnecessary! Recommended!

“Great stay at Hotel Julian”

Hotel Julian

4 of 5 stars
Toronto, Ontario
May 25, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

We just returned from a 5 night stay at Hotel Julian, we then went to Cesky Krumlov for 2 nights and returned back the Julian for 1 night. The first stay was fine, the room was very clean. We booked the honeymoon package, which included airport pickup which was great when you are in a brand new city. The room was simple but kind of noisy at night, as you can hear the traffic through the windows. So I would ask for a rear facing room if possible. We walked everywhere! Prague is definitely a city to walk all over. We only took the tram a few times. I found it not convenient in that you had to buy specific tickets either at the hotel or convenience store. But you had to know how many stops and how long you may be riding on the metro/tram to get the correct tickets. Definitely not the most convenient system. Did not eat dinner at the hotel, as there are several great restaurants within walking distance. On the one night back, the hotel could not find my reservation. Luckily, I had printed out the email confirmations with the prices and they had an extra room available, so everything worked out fine. Always print out your confirmations with prices!!!

“THE BEST!!!”

Hotel Julian

5 of 5 stars
Winnipeg, Manitoba

1/1 found this review helpful

Can't go wrong with the Julian. It was withing walking distance to everything, great restaurants nearby, nice staff, the best breakfast we had on our trip through Europe, a computer for guests to use, a heated towel bar to dry any laundry you might have, good rates ( I think we paid 50E a night!). The bathroom actually had a tub and the room was spacious, clean, nicely decorated- I didn't want to leave. Love Praha, Love the Julian.

“Good hotel, great location!”

Hotel Julian

May 19, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

I booked the Hotel Julian as a surprise for my husband for our 1st wedding anniversary using the reviews on Trip Advisor as a reference and I have to say we weren't disappointed. The hotel was on the quieter side of the Vltava River, two streets back from the waterside and about a 10-15 minute walk to Charles Bridge.
The hotel itself was very clean, breakfast was simple but tasty and included fresh bread,scrambled eggs, streaky bacon, spicy sausage, continental style meats and cheeses with cakes & pastries. The hotel bar did food but we didn't eat there as there are so many places around to eat we ran out of time. We didn't use any of the other facilities but as a note there is a gym if you have any energy left after walking all day and there is an iron and ironing board downstairs in the basement which they let you use.
One thing we would recommend is that if you book this hotel ask them for a rear facing room. Although there is nothing to look at you will find it quieter as the road out front was pretty busy all night and the windows let a lot of noise through.
OUT & ABOUT --
If you cross the road directly outside the hotel and head left in the direction of Charles Bridge and the Castle( You can see this in the distance) keep walking for about 5 minutes you will find some decent bars. The best one we found along here is a Mexican Restaurant & Bar called 'Cantina'. The food is fantastic and the cockatils to die for but they get very busy so you may need to reserve a table if you want to eat. The other great place for food was a place by the river under Charles Bridge next to the jetties where you catch the boat trips. It's a golden building called 'At the Charles Bridge'. It serves the biggest & best Pork Knuckle in the area and is a BBQ style restaurant which again is very popular with its beer garden.

All in all we walked miles, saw everything and returned each day exhausted from all the walking we did. Some people have said to use the trams but the weather was sunny & 25 degrees + so we made the most of the weather and walked. Most afternoons we had freak afternoon showers for about 30 minutes followed by bright sunshine - very odd!! We would definitely return in a year or so but will go mid week again. As Friday & Saturday approached it felt like every Stag Party in the world descended on Prague and bars became very busy and drinks prices increased.

Definitely a country to visit but take flat shoes!
