Kings Residence

Kings Residence Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Kings Residence, you’ll notice it doesn’t scream “look at me” like some hotels do — and honestly, that’s part of its charm. This three-star property sits quietly on Podplukovníka Sochora street, but don’t let the understated exterior fool you. The moment you step inside, there’s this immediate sense that someone actually cares about the details here. The lobby feels more like a well-appointed home than a typical hotel, which sets the tone for everything else.

Location That Actually Matters

Here’s what I love about the location — you’re in Prague, but you’re not drowning in tourist crowds every time you step outside. The neighborhood has this authentic Czech feel that you just don’t get when you’re staying right in Old Town. You know what’s great though? You can still walk to the major sights without feeling like you need a map and a prayer. Couples seem to get this — they’ve rated the location 9.0, and I can see why. There’s something romantic about having your own little corner of the city while still being connected to everything that matters.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was larger than I expected — Prague hotels can be notoriously cramped, but Kings Residence actually gives you space to breathe. The furnishings feel thoughtful rather than just functional, and the bed was genuinely comfortable (I’m picky about mattresses, so this matters). What struck me most was how quiet everything was at night. You’d think being in a city, you’d hear traffic or neighbors, but the soundproofing really works here.

Breakfast and Practical Perks

The buffet breakfast deserves a mention because it’s not just the usual sad continental spread. They actually put effort into it — fresh pastries, local options, and coffee that doesn’t taste like it’s been sitting around since yesterday. I mean, it’s not going to change your life, but it starts your day right. The parking situation is something you’ll appreciate if you’re driving — having private parking in Prague is actually a big deal, and it’s right at the hotel. No circling blocks looking for a spot or paying ridiculous fees at public garages.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps coming back to me about Kings Residence is how it feels like they’ve figured out what travelers actually want versus what hotels think they want. The 8.4 rating makes sense when you experience the place — it’s not trying to be something it’s not, but what it does, it does well. You get genuine comfort, a location that works for real exploring, and staff who seem to understand that small touches matter. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in for a few days and actually feel like you’re living in Prague rather than just passing through it.

• Will definitelly stay again. Lovely and clean hotel at great location. Just possibly will skip the breakfast as I wasn&# – Vojtech from United Kingdom – 27 January 2025 (8/10)

  The room self, facilities and the location location are absolutely great for this money. Really hard to find any flaws. Overall cleanliness is also very high. Very happy with my stay and size of the room and everything.
  
  What could be improved: My only problem with the stay is the quality of the breakfast. To be honest at this price I wouldn't even mind the stay being without the breakfast but because it's included I have some reservations. And those are mainly towards the quality of the hams, salamis, sausages, cheeses etc being served. Which look like the cheapest you can get. Also the eggs were terribly overcooked and have the suspicion that they might have been made from the powder. The coffee machine puts the hot water in your espresso. Otherwise it's fine and clean even in the breakfast area and I can imagine that for some people the food would be just fine. Again the breakfast was included in a very decent price so it's hard to even complain but if I imagine that somebody would pay fe. €8 for the breakfast on the top and got this they would likely be disappointed. Please take this as a personal opinion on the quality of the ingredients and not any serious concerns everything looked clean and fresh.

• Thank you for our stay – Denisa from Slovakia – 15 December 2024 (9/10)

  Location, staff, breakfast

• Superb – Jaroslav from Slovakia – 10 November 2024 (9/10)

  Hi, this was our 2nd stay in same hotel, so this can tell all imortant. All was fine, only broken, their typical blue flag with lion, was not nice…About one complication will be good to inform – Vystavna ulice is under construction and only trams could be used, so when you travel with your car its nice complication to comes close to hotel, but nothing too problematic.
  
  What could be improved: all was fine..

• Great location, spacious apartment and good value for money – Nina from Denmark – 4 August 2024 (8/10)

  The location is great and the apartment was big. Also the bathroom was very spacious. Everything was very clean.
  
  What could be improved: The pillows were not great and we only got one per person so unfortunately we woke up with some neck pain the next day.

• Comfortable, walkable to Old Town and Central train station – Karen from United States – 20 July 2024 (9/10)

  Nice and clean. It was our first stop from the airport, and they could store our bags until check-in while we checked out the city. Walkable to Old Town and the Central Train Station. Great breakfast. Do yourself a favor, and sign up for breakfasts.
  
  What could be improved: Liked everything.
