Michelin Guide "Quiet baroque townhouse close to the castle... Splendid staircase leads to traditional bedrooms featuring parquet floors and antique furnishings."
Frommer's "The atmosphere is almost Disneyesque in its pretense, but somehow appropriate for this location at the foot of Prague Castle." Full review
Insight Guides "This Baroque building (it took its present form in 1639) is in a quiet and convenient location at the top of the hill, looking out over Petrín Hill and the Strahov."
Lonely Planet "The ‘King Charles’ is a cosy, romantic hotel set in a lovely, ‘baroquefied’ Gothic building, with rooms set on landings around an impressive central atrium with a stained-glass ceiling." Full review
Travel + Leisure "U Krále Karla (the King Charles) is a 19-room boutique hotel situated on the Royal Route... an old-world atmosphere remains in the individually designed guestrooms." Full review
Rough Guide "Possibly the most tastefully exquisite of all the small luxury hotels in the castle district, with beautiful antique furnishings and stained-glass windows."
Time Out "Although it continues to generate buzz on some online Prague discussion boards, the King Charles remains its stolid, lovely self, with no visible ego boost." Full review
Star Service "Located on the narrow but picturesque thoroughfare that climbs from Mala Strana to Hradcany, Hotel u Krale Karla was once the sibling of the bolder, medieval-flavored Hotel u Pava. " Full review

Michelin Guide "Modern hotel with elegant bedrooms in hues of soft caramel and fresh apple most enjoy views of the river or the old part of the city."
Frommer's "A riverside window might give you a glimpse of the castle or at least the metronome at the top of Letná Park across the river, where a massive statue of Joseph Stalin stood in the 1950s." Full review
DK Eyewitness "An imposing 1970s building set on the banks of the Vltava, this hotel has excellent health and fitness facilities and a swimming pool."
Gayot "Overlooking the Vltava River, in the heart of central Prague."
Star Service "Occupying a prime location between the Vltava River and the Old Town, this gold-edged boxy expanse would seem out of place if it weren't a Prague landmark." Full review

The formal top-floor a la carte restaurant, Zlata Praha (Golden Prague), garners local praise by offering good food and stunning views of the city's rooftops (be sure to pick up a "view map," which points out what all of the buildings are).
Jetsetter "Five-star comfort in downtown Prague with an indoor pool and three restaurants." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Thanks to a great location, a classy restaurant, a pool and spa area and plush rooms — it remains a popular option for business and leisure travellers." Full review
