Heart of Old Town Apartment by National Theater

Heart of Old Town Apartment by National Theater Overview

You know what struck me first about this place? The address alone tells you everything – 5 Krocínova puts you literally steps from the National Theater, and I mean you can practically hear the orchestra tuning up from your window. It’s one of those narrow Prague streets that tourists usually rush past without realizing there’s actually life happening above the ground floor shops.

The apartment itself is honestly what I’d call “comfortable Prague living” – it’s got that solid 3-star feel without trying to be something it’s not. The 7.8 rating makes perfect sense because, well, it delivers exactly what it promises. The rooms have this lived-in quality that actually works in its favor (you’re not afraid to put your coffee cup down without a coaster), and the windows – assuming you get one facing the right direction – give you glimpses of the theater district that most hotel guests pay twice as much for. I stayed here during shoulder season and loved being able to walk to Wenceslas Square in about eight minutes, but honestly, you’ll probably spend most of your time just wandering the immediate area because there’s so much packed into these few blocks.

What really sells this spot is the neighborhood rhythm you get to experience. Mornings are pretty quiet until the theater crowd starts building around lunchtime, and evenings actually get lively without being obnoxious – you’re close enough to everything that matters but just off the main tourist stampede routes. The tram connections from nearby are solid (though you’ll probably walk everywhere anyway), and there’s this little grocery store around the corner that locals actually use, which always feels like a good sign. I mean, it’s not luxury by any stretch, but it’s got that authentic Prague apartment vibe that makes you feel less like a tourist and more like you’re just staying at a friend’s place who happens to live in one of the most beautiful parts of the city. Plus, checking in was straightforward – no drama, no waiting around, just keys and helpful directions to the nearest good coffee, which honestly is all you really need when you’re eager to get out and explore.

Travelers should reserve a hotel in Prague at least two months ahead of their visit to ensure availability and secure better rates, especially during the peak summer season when the city hosts numerous cultural festivals and outdoor concerts.

  Location is perfect. Spacious rooms
  
  What could be improved: It lacked a but of cleanliness in the corners on the floor and also bathroom sink. Mattress was very old and the sheets didnt look good at all. Also we asked for 5 people and the extra bed had no sheets. The building smells very bad but I guess that’s not the host’s fault
