Golden Well Hotel

Top choice in Malá Strana


Voted one of the country's top three small hotels, this hidden gem is tucked away at the end of a cobbled cul-de-sac on the southern slope of the castle hill in a Renaissance house that once belonged to Emperor Rudolf II. The rooms are quiet and spacious, with polished wood floors, reproduction period furniture and luxurious bathrooms with underfloor heating and whirlpool baths.

Many rooms have a superb outlook over the city or the Palace Gardens below, as does the hotel's excellent restaurant and terrace.
