What a view!Visited Prague for a 3-night stay and came here twice, once for a drink and the next day for lunch. Try and sit on the right hand side once you reach the roof as it looks over the Old Town Square and the Astronomical Clock. The other side is under a glass structure so can be used in all weathers and has heaters.
Drinks were slightly pricier than other places but you're paying for the location.
If sitting right in the corner, expect constant tourists posing for photos, but everyone was friendly.
The lunch menu is quite varied, we chose the pork loin and the scallops on saffron risotto, both beautifully cooked and very tasty. Staff are busy but attentive and friendly enough. A bread basket is offered but you pay for it.
The lift up is pretty and once at the top, the first door out is sign-posted, walk up the stone steps then open that door. If you find that door closed it's not clear that you're in the right place.
Definitely a treat with beautiful food and stunning views.

AMAZING HOTEL - RUDE STAFFThis hotel is absolutely amazing. The location, the rooms, the amenities, the bar on the rooftop and the amazing bar in the cellar.
What was absolutely awful was the staff when we were having breakfast. They were rude, unresponsive and just downright horrible. It took my partner 35 minutes for a coffee and then it was cold. The orange juice ran out so I asked for more? I honestly thought I'd shot someone with the way I was looked at? These people ruined the whole experience of the hotel as the place is amazing. Just if you go please don't expect the breakfast service to be anything but a joke. The rest of the hotel is amazing and the area is 10/10.

Hotel with characterThis is really a boutique hotel with many features you won't find with a modern chain hotel. The level of service was second to none from the moment we arrived in reception or through to the restaurant service or concierge. The bedrooms are very individual and well appointed. The cocktail bar in the basement 'Black Angels' is a must and the 'crew' running it are just fantastic - they're knowledge of cocktails is superb and will make great recommendations or suggestions to meet mood or taste.

Nice winter breakJust returned from our 10th visit to Prague. Decided this time to stay in the heart of it at U Prince. This was a lovely hotel. We had a mezzanine room which was beautiful. Only downside was the heat. We had the 'air con' full blast but just couldn't cool the room down. Hard to sleep even with 3 fans blasting.
Breakfast was very nice. Something for everyone. Had dinner on the roof terrace on Monday night. Lovely food. Gorgeous views. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Evening was spoiled however by people on the table behind us who were 2 mature English couples swearing and singing and generally spoiling it for others. When they left I apologised to the waiter for their loutish behaviour. Didn't want him to think us Brits all behaved like that!
Had couple of cocktails in Black Angels bar. Fab. A great experience.
Also ate at the downstairs restaurant outside on the square before leaving for the airport. Very nice again.
Hot wine is the best around. Also great hot dogs. Everything reasonably priced especially considering where it is.
Thanks U Prince.

Amazing locationWe had apartment 61 which had 2 double beds, a single bed and a separate kitchen. The position was right by the clock so couldn’t have been better and we got an amazing deal being low season. The price rises significantly in the summer months and I imagine it would get a little noisy with the stag parties wandering the streets but will definitely return here in winter months. Breakfast was well varied and good quality, the restaurant and bar are both inviting although the piano playing in the basement cocktail bar was too loud to hold a conversation.

Where do I begin?We came to Prague for my partners birthday. The hotel was stunning, full of charm and beautiful things. Our room was stunning (although too hot for us. Even with the heating turned off we had to have windows open at night and the AC on) The staff could not do enough and we even received a complimentary bottle of Prosecco. We visited the opera while we were there and again the service was first class. We requested the hotel staff to order a taxi to take us to the national theatre, and upon being escorted outside, we were surprised to find a Mercedes waiting for us, almost reminiscent of a scene from Pretty Woman.
We visited Kutna Hora by train, highly recommended btw, and the reception staff couldn’t have been more helpful, printing off time tables and explaining where to get on and off. All in all an amazing, magical time and we cannot wait to return!

Old World Charm in an Old a World SettingU Prince Hotel Prague has everything you want in a hotel in a setting that takes you back in time. The building is a refurbished 11th century monastery set on the edge of the Old Town Square almost opposite the world famous Astronomical Clock. The rooms are spacious with king sized beds and ours looked over the square. The staff are extremely welcoming and professional. The hotel has a rooftop restaurant as well as one inside and an outside one on the square. There is also a world rated cocktail bar downstairs. Breakfast is an extensive buffet with both traditional Czech dishes and English ones, Being there for the Christmas markets meant every night was a winter wonderland with brightly lit market stalls selling crafts and delicious traditional foods. This is definitely the time to visit Prague and U Prince provides an exceptional place to stay.

Fantastic locationWe stayed here for 4 days. You enter the hotel on floor -1, and reception is on floor 0. A lovely rooftop terrace on floor 4, but would suggest booking in advance. Lovely views when enjoying a drink. Also a great cocktail bar on floor -2 which is also busy and has amazing cocktails. Staff in the hotel are somber and not always welcoming. We had great views of the astronomical clock from our room and enjoyed a pleasant stay. Building has lots of character and breakfast was ok.

Brilliant!!My girlfriend and I spent Monday through Friday staying at Hotel U Prince and both of us had an exceptional stay. Not only was the Hotel both impressive with its decor and presentation but from arrival and until check out we both felt so welcome.
Both of us chose to visit Prague for its history and architecture and U Prince compliments that experience. The room was perfect and the view as the picture shows was stunning. A few of the reviews I have read previously spoke of the rooms being out dated and needed upgrading. However, we felt the rooms, the furniture and facilities were in keeping with the theme and history of its origin which seemed more appropiate. If that's not for you i would argue you're in the wrong place and some corporate experience might be more suitable. However for us we found it to be perfect. Not only was its interior and design brilliant the location couldn't be any more central to all the sights.
Furthermore the staff were amazing, particularly an older gentleman (Milano? Forgive us if we got the name wrong) who was so attentive and welcoming and genuinely couldn't do more to assist. The receptionists and waiting staff were all so friendly too. Cannot stress how organised and efficient they were. Nothing was too much trouble.
Not only was the Hotel incredible but the on site Bar beneath also made our experience even more special. I will leave a separate review for the Black Angels Bar. Thank you so much and we look forward to returning in the future. We highly recommend it.
