“Well designed, a pleasure to stay there”

The Icon Hotel

Jun 13, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

I have stayed in many design/boutique hotels for both pleasure and work.

On this occassion I was working and this hotel was definitely up to scratch with a much more personal and intimate atmosphere than say the Prague Hilton (more on that later..)

Free Wifi internet is becoming the norm so it still annoys me that hotels still charge for it. Fortunately the Icon offered not only FREE wifi, an ethernet connection but also an ipod connector to play music through the lcd tv and a dvd player.

The first couple of nights I stayed in room 101 but then I moved to a quieter room 305 since my previous room was adjacent to a "cabaret" club which played thumping hpuse all night. If you are looking for some peace and quiet I would definitely recommend a room at the back of the hotel on a higher floor. Even though I changed room at 1am , this was done with the minimum of fuss by the front desk and they even showed me the room first to make sure I was going to be happy.

The bathrooms were spacious and there was plenty of space to put toiletries, a common problem in some design hotels with form over function.

I have to agree with another reviewer that I didn't get on too well with the pillows but the bed was comfortable enough.

Breakfast was lovely and staff were very attentive, asking if you had enough of their freshly cooked pancakes and regularly making fresh (decaf) coffee for me.

The location of the hotel is within easy walking distance of the centre and the JetSet bar is good to get a few not too expensive cocktails in before hitting the town.

I must make a last mention to the Zen Thai Massage attached to the hotel. This is well worth going to if you want to experience a professional massage at reasonable prices compared to London. The masseuses really don't hold back !

“Fantastic Hotel Close to Everything”

The Icon Hotel

5 of 5 stars

2/2 found this review helpful

I have traveled to Europe at least 20 times over the last ten years, and, for the money, the Icon Hotel is one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in. I reserved a standard room and was expecting a tiny room with a tiny bathroom, but both were large and extremely comfortable. I am pretty picky about noise, but my room which faced the street was really quiet. The breakfast is unbelievable--typical of hotels that charge 15-20 euros for! And the free internet in the room is another plus.

The staff goes out of their way to help you. I'm a pretty undemanding guest, but did make two requests that required the staff to go out of their way, which they did without hesitation.

Away from the grafitti of Wenceslas Square, I found Prague to be a charming city. I stumbled upon the best restaurant I've ever experienced in Europe--John and George Cafe located in Mala Strana on the south side of Charles Bridge. Fablous salads, entrees, dessert and a bottle of wine for about $60 US for two.

There is no doubt that I would stay at the Icon Hotel again. It's location is ideal, on a side street and only 10 minutes from all the major sites.

“Great service”

The Icon Hotel

May 19, 2008

We've just come back to a trip to Prague and would definitely return to the Icon hotel. The staff were very efficent and made sure that we were very comfortable, inlcuding the loan of an umbrella!

My only complaint would be that the walls seem to be made of tracing paper as we could hear the rooms next door when they had a shower! Also, the pillows weren't to my comfort levels but this is more a personal taste thing rather than anything else.

“My favorite hotel in europe”

The Icon Hotel

The Icon Hotel was about our halfway point on a trip around the world, and it was our favorite hotel. From the free breakfast all day and the cool Jet Set bar to the great service and cool rooms, this place was perfect. I just got home from the trip and The Icon Hotel had a happy birthday card from the hotel that everyone signed. I could go on forever, but this place has it figured out. they have a modern hotel that feels like home...and the girls that work at the front desk can tell you where to go and what to do, and they are hot.

the rooms at this place should be twice as much as they are. cheers!

“great hotel”

The Icon Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Tel Aviv, Israel
May 13, 2008

great hotel! many reviews stated this - so just to confirm. The hotel does everything to give a feeling one is not in a hotel. The lobby, the room, the bar - all have a feel of style and not of a standard hotel. The staff is constantly smiling, always pays attention and extremely helpful. Rooms are comfortable and fun to be in. Breakfast is great.
A couple of reviews mentioned a noise problem - we didn't have any noise. On the contrary - the hotel was quiet, location is great.
Next time in Prague - no hesitation - we will stay at the Icon. One of the nicer hotels we stayed in around the world.
