Apartment in Zizkov -201- Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Apartment in Zizkov -201- on Prokopova Street, you immediately get that authentic Prague feeling — this isn’t some touristy bubble, but a real neighborhood where locals actually live. The building has that classic Central European charm, and honestly, I was pleasantly surprised by how well-maintained everything looked. You know what struck me first? The quiet. Despite being in Prague, this spot feels refreshingly peaceful, which is exactly what you want after a day of sightseeing.

The Zizkov Advantage

Here’s the thing about staying in Zizkov — it’s become one of Prague’s coolest districts, and locals will tell you it’s where the real action is these days. This four-star apartment sits right in what’s genuinely the top-rated area of the city, with an excellent location score that actually makes sense when you explore the neighborhood. You’re walking distance from the famous Zizkov Television Tower (love it or hate it, it’s iconic), and the area is packed with authentic Czech pubs and cafes that haven’t been completely overrun by tourists yet.

Inside the Space

The apartment itself feels more spacious than typical Prague accommodations — I mean, anyone who’s stayed in the city center knows how cramped things can get. The room layout is smart and functional, with enough space to actually unpack your suitcase properly. What I really appreciated was the attention to detail in the furnishings; everything feels thoughtfully chosen rather than just thrown together. The kitchen area is particularly well-equipped if you want to grab some fresh bread and local cheese from the nearby markets.

Getting Around

Transportation from here is actually brilliant — there’s a tram stop practically at your doorstep, and you can reach Old Town Square in about fifteen minutes without breaking a sweat. The metro connection is solid too, which matters when you’re carrying luggage or coming back late from dinner. What couples seem to love most (and the 8.5 rating from pairs makes total sense) is that you can easily walk to romantic spots like Riegrovy sady park for sunset views over the city, but you’re not paying Old Town prices for accommodation.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this place works because it strikes that perfect balance between authentic Prague living and tourist practicality. You’re staying where real Praguers live, shopping at their grocery stores, drinking at their local pubs — but you can still hit all the major sights without any hassle. The 7.9 rating reflects exactly what you’d expect: solid, reliable, well-located accommodation that doesn’t try to be something it’s not. Plus, there’s decent parking in the area if you’re driving, which is honestly a miracle in Prague. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself planning your next visit before you’ve even checked out.

• Great location, easy check-in, the flat is a little worn down, but for its price, I would totally recommend it. – Ana from Georgia – 6 March 2025 (9/10)

  Location, self check in, number of beds
  
  What could be improved: Pillows had weird/bad smell, it was a little dusty. Before I booked it I asked questions and the host didn't answer, but I booked it anyway because of my friends recommendation and price.
  There were no slippers or shampoo, I know its not a must, but it would be very helpful.

• A well connected location for a non-demanding traveler without kids – Sergii from Poland – 27 May 2024 (7/10)

  I liked the very convenient location. In general, Zizkov is perfect for close proximity to the city centre via tram, but also close to nice parks and local pubs. And in our particular case it was very close to the venue we attended (Forum Karlin): just across a romantic tunnel under the Vitkov hill.
  Getting into the property (either via a provided code or an app) was a breeze.
  Also I liked the possibility to leave luggage before the check-in. I arrived at 6 am, so it was very convenient to leave the bags and walk the heck of the city until 3pm.
  The beds were super comfy and the pressure in the shower was more than adequate.
  
  What could be improved: The communication with hosts was a bit underwhelming. They've worked everything out in terms of standard procedures, that's for sure. But a nonstandard situation puzzles and staggers them. In my case it was the necessity to change the number of guests in the check-in app (so that I didn't have to pay an extra city tax and provide data for a virtual person). It was not solved until the end of the trip. Didn't obstruct us to get into the property but took a lot of time for sending messages back and forth.
  
  Now, the property looks much worse than on the pictures. The carpet floor needs to be renewed, the walls beg for renovation.
  The property was not cleaned properly: there was still some disturbing rubbish on the floor (like a packaging for someone's suppository).
  The kitchen is a joke: it's less than bare minimum.
  The soundproofing is non-existent.
  Overall, this apartment is probably ok for those famous Prague stag parties (which the owner forbids of course), but I wouldn't recommend it for a family weekend.

• Be careful what you book – Ester from Slovakia – 23 March 2024 (2/10)

  Quick and easy check-in with clear instructions.
  
  What could be improved: Our experience with this accomodation was very poor. First of all, the owner didn't inform us about the ongoing construction site works on the ground floor – we would not pick such accomodation if we knew. I am honestly shocked by such a high rating which I find very misleading. After we entered the room, there was very unpleasant smell. I found out that it comes from the pillows, it was disgusting. I tried to contact the owner asking him politely for the replacement but he never wrote back, so we slept without them during our stay. I can only guess if they were washed and dried in the wrong way, or they weren't replaced at all after previous guests. I know, that this place is not the Hilton hotel and it’s value lies in good price deal, so I wasn't expecting any high standard really. But I don’t think that it’s a lot to ask for a clean bed sheets, clean carpet and clear water runing from the pipes. In my opinion it’s a shame to even list a room for rent like this. There is certainly a few easy and quick fixes which could improve the listing without any extraordinary effort. The place just looks neglected and I hopeh this will change for the sake of the next travelers. Until then my advice would be to avoid this place and I am really not happy to write such a bad review.

• Nice place, inexpensive stay. – Valentina from Austria – 8 October 2023 (8/10)

  Large rooms, nice small kitchen, tesco nearby, all we needed.
  
  What could be improved: Construction works downstairs, flickering lights in the bedroom.

• Exceptional – Elionaa from Lithuania – 11 August 2023 (10/10)

  Cozy and clean apartment in convenient location. We also got a private parking in the garage. Old Town was not far away and easy reachable by the foot.
