What a fabulous hotel! We had read the reviews before booking for our trip in mid December. We were very impressed with the reviews but on arrival at the hotel, our expectations were exceeded. We arrived mid morning and we were allocated our rooms,even though we arrived a couple of hours before check in. The receptionist was so helpful, supplying us with maps and instructions on how to get the Christmas markets. The rooms were beautifully appointed, spotlessly clean, with beautiful bed linen and toiletries in the bathroom. There was a hospitality room on the second floor, which was open between 4.30pm and 6.30pm, where you could avail of tea, coffee, wine, Prosecco, snacks, cakes and homemade biscuits, all with the compliments of the hotel. The breakfast was fantastic, in a beautiful room on the 4th floor, which had fantastic views. All of the staff here were so helpful, courteous, pleasant and so efficient and professional. It is one of the best, if not the best hotel we ever stayed in and we will definitely return.

We had a great stay at this beautiful hotel in Prague, which is in an excellent location. Great rooms, terrific breakfast, a great restaurant for a unique dinner, fantastic city views from the restaurant, and a staff offering outstanding service.

The Golden Well is a wonderful hotel and was the perfect place to stay during a pre-Christmas visit to Prague. The property sits at the base of the Prague Castle and is a short walk across the river to many of Prague's popular sites. The staff was helpful, the hotel itself is beautiful and the rooms were impeccably maintained. They host breakfast for the guests in their rooftop hotel, which has an expansive view eastwards over the River Vltava and onto popular sites like the Charles Bridge. The food was delicious and we cherished starting our mornings in such a beautiful atmosphere. The location of the Golden Well is a perfect balance between convenience and quiet; it is somewhat separate from the busier paths throughout the city but provides quick access (< 10 min) to so many of the popular spaces throughout the city. We will definitely stay again!

The attention to detail at this hotel is truly excellent. We've been lucky enough to be able to access some stunning hotels around Europe's major cities and this was by far the best we've encountered. The room service, food, room, front desk and communications were first class and it's clear that the staff at the Golden Well go the extra mile for their guests. In particular, we found house keeping especially strong, along with the breakfast team - the breakfasts were amazing! All in all, an excellent hotel which really takes care of its guests and we are hoping to visit again in the near future.

This is one of my all time favorite hotels. It has so much character and charm, I would love to live there. The staff are so friendly and helpful and always eager to share information with you. The breakfast is best anywhere. You order from a menu plus they have champagne! Can't wait to go back.

Hotel U Zlate Studne was fabulous! The staff was gracious and attentive. Our Grande Deluxe guest room included every amenity as described. The food was excellent! The property itself is tucked away in a residential area. It is within a few blocks of public transportation, making this a great home base for sightseeing and shopping. Five-Star Quality!

HarperWe spent 3 nights at this delightful hotel, and everything about the stay surpassed our expectations.The hotel has everything you could ask for in a luxury property, at very moderate prices. The location was ideal, within easy walking distance of most attractions, but a couple of short blocks removed from the tourist thouroughfares. The building, which is centuries old, is full of character. It has been tastefully renovated, with respect for the historic features of the architecture and decor. In closing, I hope to return to Prague sometime to see it in spring or summer. U Zlate Studne will definitely be my first choice.
