Location is BEST, walkable to everywhere as long as your feet can take you. 😀 The only transport i use is Bolt taxi from UAN Florenc bus Terminal ,15 mins ride to hostel cost around 6€ The spitfire butterfly sculpture- by renowed artist David Černỳ is just 1 min nearby on the same street. Kebab, KFC, Chinese/ Vietnamese, gelato creme la creme restaurants is next to hostel. 10 mins walk to Astronomical Old Town area. Receptionist Adela is sweet and very helpful, giving info where & how to go places/ where to eat local cheap food.

6person female room (rm 305) and only one fan, not enough! Bed at far end wont get any air from fan. Hot in summer, noisy when windows are open coz it is on the main street with trams / cars passing by. Bring earplugs and sleep masks! ! Bright sun shining into rooms in morning throughout the day. Blackout curtains would help to keep the room cool during summer. A full mirror outside the bathroom area would help alot especially for women. We need time to make ourselves presentable.😁 If a person uses the bathroom to shower, makeup etc.. Its a minimum 1 hour wait to use the bathroom! 🙄

The bedrooms very clean and the location was no less than ideal. I had never stayed in a hostel before and this was super easy and simple.

The girls bathroom, particularly the shower, was not as clean. There was hair on the floor and seemed to be dirt on the floor as well? There is also a timer that turns the light off every few minutes and the room went pitch black twice during my shower. I had to open the shower door and flail my arms around so the lights would turn back on.

Excellent location near the Old Town and near good food places. Trams came right outside. We were just a 10 minute walk from where our tours started. For the price, the room was good and the bathroom was fairly big. The shower was powerful. Staff were really helpful and nice! Someone on reception 24/7 to help.

Our keys to our room stopped working multiple times during our short stay so we’d have to go all the way down to reception from the 5th floor each time. The shower was cold on the last day. There is no air con, only fans.

We visited Prague as a group of 5 people and booked a quintuple room. It was quite spacious and comfortable. The room has a private bathroom, which saves you the hassle of sharing the bathroom with other boarders and waiting to use it during busy times. The location of the hostel is also great. It is centrally located and Charles Bridge is at a walking distance. Metro and tram stations are also nearby. The reception is also open 24×7 in case you need some assistance. Overall, I would recommend this place in case you are looking for a pocket-friendly accommodation in a central location in Prague.

The late check-in time of 2:00 pm is a problem for those who arrive early (like us). While it's understandable that it is a hostel policy, but I feel provisions for early check-in can be facilitated to make life easier for boarders. Keeping in mind that the check-out time is 10:00 am, check-in can easily be started from around 11:00 am. However, I must mention that even if they don't allow an early check-in, they allow you to keep your luggage in their lockers until it's check-in time.

The location is perfect, with restaurants and bars conveniently nearby and easy access to the charming old town and public transport. The hostel offers 24/7 reception, spacious and comfortable rooms with shared bathrooms, and a welcoming atmosphere. They also organize engaging activities such as walking tours, game nights, and other exciting events, making it a fantastic choice for social and active travelers.

The laundry room could use improvement as the dryers are not functioning efficiently, taking an extended time to dry clothes. Additionally, there are not enough laundry facilities to accommodate the needs of users.

The hostel is very nice, the women room was unexpected very big, there is a box for your luggage, but you need to ask for a padlock. There is a common kitchen - fully equipped. And on saturday (probably) there was a breakfast to buy. The hostel is close to the old town and city centrum. there is a lift in the building. You can leave you luggage before check-in , and after check-out.

the bathroom (shover and toilet) is outside the room, the bathrooms (shover and toilet) required very good cleaning!!! Also behind the bed next to the wall required cleaning.

Very good location - close to the old town and surrounded by supermarkets, restaurants, and more. It’s just a 1 minute walk to the nearest tram station, but Prague is a very walkable city, so with this great location, you can easily walk to many main attractions. The staff is great, special thanks to Sofi, who helped me a lot when I arrived on the first day. The facilities are excellent, with a spacious kitchen fully equipped for preparing your meals and there’s even leftover food available from other travelers. The common area is also spacious and comfortable. Payable tea, coffee, and other drinks are available at reasonable prices. The dorm is spacious, with one bathroom inside the dorm, which is convenient, plus an additional shared bathroom outside.

Unfortunately, there weren’t many travelers during my stay, so the hostel felt a bit too quiet. But that’s totally okay!

So glad to stay at the hostel Very friendly team, amazing location, cozy rooms, I got the opportunity to be part of the amazing activities that Elena Castillo Is managing, what an amazing idea to have such a great person in charge, delivering tarot reading, movie nights and taking care of the guests while exploring the city at night No doubt about staying at the Downtown Hostel Prague Pura vida

I had the absolute best stay at this hostel in downtown Prague! From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful. The rooms were spacious and spotless, with plenty of space to move around and store my belongings. The added bonus of a towel and locker made everything super convenient. The location couldn’t be more perfect – everything is within walking distance, yet it’s so peaceful and quiet at night. The WiFi was fast and reliable, which is great for anyone needing to stay connected. Overall, this hostel exceeded all my expectations with its perfect combination of comfort, cleanliness, and hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Prague!

Nothing.

Had a great stay at this hostel in Prague! The location is perfect—it's centrally located, just a short 3-mins walk from Metro B (yellow line) that connects to major attractions like the Old Town Square and Charles Bridge. The staff was superb, very friendly and accommodating. Really appreciated the public lockers to store my belongings before/after early check-out time (you'd need your own padlock or rent one at the lobby for a fee).

The room can get quite warm in the summer, as there was no AC or fan provided, but if you're travelling out of the warm season, it should be fine. I particularly find the locks in the bathroom (third floor) were a bit tricky to use at times - you need to push harder or else you'll be stucked inside!
