What you're near — and what you're not
- Prague Castle (uphill, ~10 min)
- Lesser Town (Malá Strana) lanes
- Charles Bridge (10 min)
- Old Town Square (across the river, ~15 min)
- New Town and main shopping
What you're paying for
Rooms and suites spread across seven monastery buildings, so layouts vary widely — some have vaulted ceilings or garden views. Ask about a quieter, garden-facing room and confirm the building, as character and size are inconsistent across the complex.
