My initial perception of this hotel were wrong. The location may be out of the circle of activities, but the staff and services make up for that. The rooms are good sized, beds are comfortable - ask for extra mattress if you like it soft - and the bath tubs are good for soaking. The breakfast gets you ready for the day. With the low cost of transportation or if you like to walk, this hotel is well worth overlooking its location.
Der Stil des Hotels spiegelt wunderbar die Stadt Prag mit ihren Sehenswürdigkeiten wieder. Es ist ein sehr individuelles Kleinod mit freundlichem, zuvorkommendem Personal, und damit bestens geeignet, selbst in einer großen Stadt einige ruhige, erholsame Momente genießen zu können.
Aufgrund der überschaubaren Anzahl der geschmackvoll eingerichteten sauberen Zimmer bietet das Hotel einen willkommenen Kontrast zu den großen Hotelketten ähnlicher Kategorie.
Das Frühstück lässt kaum Wünsche offen.
Hotel General is a roomy clean well run facility. The rooms are large compared to many Europe hotels, and the staff works hard to please guests. It is in a quiet neighborhood, which is good for some, although the bar is rarely used and only staffed if a guest goes down there. No one comes in from the outside. TVs are decent old flat panels, but do not have HDMI connectors for computers or devices. Breakfast buffet is excellent, and there are both subway and train stations within easy walking distance.
Het hotel is goed gelegen; In de buurt van een hop-on-hop-off. op wandelafstand van het centrum. In een veilige buurt.
Het ontbijtbuffet was in orde. Er werd ook regelmatig aangevuld. De heer aan de receptie was zeer behulpzaam. Het hotel is aan te bevelen.
Eetzaal is wel naar de kleine kant maar gezellig.
minpuntje :De shuttle naar de luchthaven is wel duur.
Hôtel un peu éloigné de la foule mais à coté du métro des tramways.
Peu de chambres donc pas l'usine.
Personnels très disponibles.
Petit déjeuner très varié et copieux.
Check-in was very easy. Staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast was outstanding. Dinner was excellent also. A very nice place to stay. Highly recommend
tolles, freundliches und sehr hilfsbereites personal.
mega großes und sehr gutes frühstücksbuffet, das ganze hotel ein augenschmaus, die rezeption mit riesigem aquarium.
schön ausgestattete zimmer und tolle gemütliche betten.
Great hotel, amazing service (they even turned on the sauna for me after hours). The hotel is a little piece of history with upgraded rooms and amenities, very clean and the staff is super attentive to detail
Wonderful Hotel, would stay there again and again!
The hotel is a beautiful older hotel but has been updated wonderfully. The staff there is tremendous. We stayed last year, and when we returned, they remembered us! Every attention to detail has been met from the air conditioning (worked beautifully by the way), the food, everything! This is my favorite hotel we e ever stayed at and we have stayed at hundreds! I can’t say enough about all the staff there either. They are all wonderful people who really seem to care about their clients comforts.
