Palace Apartment by Main Station – Premier

Prague, Czech Republic
Opletalova 17 Byt č. 2 - typ Premier, Prague, 110 00, Czech Republic

Overview

Honestly, when I first spotted this place on Opletalova Street, I wasn’t sure what to expect – the address made it sound a bit bureaucratic, you know? But Palace Apartment by Main Station really surprised me in the best way. The building has this elegant old Prague character that you can’t fake, with those high ceilings and period details that remind you you’re staying in a city with serious history. What I loved right away was how it feels like an actual apartment rather than some sterile hotel room – there’s space to spread out your stuff and actually live a little.

The location is honestly pretty brilliant if you think about it. Yeah, you’re near the main train station, which sounds sketchy until you realize it means you can literally walk to catch trains to anywhere in Europe. I mean, we’re talking maybe three minutes on foot. But here’s the thing most people don’t mention – Opletalova is actually on the good side of the station area, where you get those beautiful Art Nouveau buildings and tree-lined streets. You’re close enough to Wenceslas Square that you can walk there easily (about seven minutes), but far enough away that you don’t get the late-night tourist chaos. The trams run right past the corner too, which became my favorite way to get around the city.

What really won me over was the attention to detail in the apartment itself. The kitchen actually works – I’m talking full-size appliances, proper counter space, the works. There’s something really satisfying about being able to grab fresh bread from the bakery around the corner and make your own coffee in the morning. The bedroom feels genuinely restful, with blackout curtains that actually block out the light (crucial if you’re dealing with jet lag). I’ll be honest, you can hear some street noise during the day, but it’s more of that pleasant European city hum than anything jarring. At night it gets surprisingly quiet. The bathroom has one of those rainfall showerheads that makes you want to stay in there way too long, and the water pressure is consistently good – small things that matter when you’re staying somewhere for more than a night or two. The whole place just feels thoughtfully put together, like someone actually lives there and cares about the details rather than just checking boxes for amenities.

Pretty decor but not very functional. There are also two flights of stairs - no elevator!

What could be improved: No place to hang towels, no shelf in the shower for products, and the stairs were a hassle. The ad showed an elevator which is not correct!

The apartment is spacious and well equipped with lovely high ceilings and big beds. It’s only 10 mins walk from the Old Town and near lots of cafes and restaurants - but is still super quiet and in a secure building. I would stay here again if I came to Prague.

What could be improved: Nothing - it took us a bit of time to get the key etc but that was only because I didn’t read the instructions properly before we arrived!

The location was good, close to the station and an easy walk to the old town.
The apartment was spacious, with a washing machine, kitchen, 2 bedrooms and quirky bathroom.

What could be improved: It didn't have a clothes dryer and the shower, there wasn't a shelf to put soap, etc.
