Studio Apartment – Tower Petrin

Studio Apartment – Tower Petrin Overview

First Impressions

Walking up Újezd street toward Studio Apartment – Tower Petrin, you’ll immediately understand why this spot gets such rave reviews for location. I mean, you’re literally steps from the funicular that takes you up Petřín Hill — honestly, I’ve stayed in a lot of places in Prague, and this four-star setup hits that sweet spot between being right in the action but not drowning in tourist chaos. The building itself has that classic Prague charm without feeling stuffy or overly formal.

The Space

This isn’t your typical hotel room situation — it’s actually a proper studio apartment that gives you some breathing room to spread out. The kitchen area is surprisingly well-equipped (you know how some places just throw in a mini-fridge and call it good), and there’s enough counter space to actually prepare something decent if you want to skip the restaurant scene for a night. The layout feels thoughtful rather than cramped, which matters when you’re staying more than just a quick weekend.

Location Magic

Here’s what I love about this spot — you’re positioned perfectly to explore both sides of Prague without feeling like you’re stuck in a tourist bubble. Petřín Park is right there when you need some green space, but you can also walk down to Lesser Town in about ten minutes. The tram connections from Újezd are fantastic, and honestly, couples seem to get this location thing figured out quickly (there’s a reason they rate it so highly for romantic trips). You’re close enough to the castle area to wander over easily, but far enough from the crowds on Charles Bridge to actually relax.

Practical Perks

What actually makes this place work is the attention to details that matter when you’re settling in somewhere. The parking situation is manageable if you’re driving — not always a given in this part of the city. The building stays quiet despite being centrally located, which means you can actually get some sleep without earplugs. I appreciated having proper storage space and a decent-sized bathroom, plus the windows let in good natural light during the day.

Why Guests Love It

Look, Prague has no shortage of places to stay, but this studio apartment nails the balance between independence and service that a lot of travelers are looking for these days. You get the freedom of having your own space with kitchen facilities, but you’re not sacrificing location or comfort to get it. The fact that it consistently scores so well on location tells you something — this isn’t just about being central, it’s about being in the right part of central Prague where you can actually enjoy the city rather than just survive it. For couples especially, there’s something appealing about having a proper base to return to after long days of exploring.

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.

Studio Apartment – Tower Petrin Accommodations

Reviews of Studio Apartment – Tower Petrin

• The location made up for the tiny. Tired furnishings – Anne from Australia – 14 June 2025 (5/10)

  Fabulous Location
  
  What could be improved: The box bed did not suit a couple as you had to climb over each other to get out of bed

• Fabulous location, comfortable and good value – Shona from United Kingdom – 16 April 2025 (8/10)

  Basic but very pleasant apartment in an absolutely fantastic location in the heart of Malá Strana. We loved being so close to key attractions and fantastic restaurants (namely U Modre Kachnicky and Bistrot Monk 2). The bed was comfier than we expected and the apartment was equipped with all the amenities we could have needed for our three-night stay, including a decent shower and hairdryer. We also didn't mind collecting the keys from the Old Town on arrival as transport connections took us to the heart of the Old Town from the airport anyway, then it only took us about 25 minutes to walk over to the apartment, which proved a nice chance to see some of the city on foot shortly after arriving (especially walking over Charles Bridge). We checked in after-hours and it was all very straightforward. Overall, would highly recommend for a comfortable budget option in an excellent location.

• Ottimo – Ilaria from Italy – 13 December 2024 (9/10)

  Appartamento come da descrizione, piccolo ma accogliente, pulito e in una bella zona, facile da raggiungere. Lo staff ottimo, rispondono tempestivamente. Sono molto freddolosa, quindi ho sofferto un po' il freddo, ma potete aggiustare i caloriferi come vi aggradano. Ci ritornerei volentieri.
  
  What could be improved: Sistemerei le tende della doccia per non far uscire l'acqua..

• Exceptional – Mohamed from Czech Republic – 6 August 2024 (10/10)

  Perfect
  
  What could be improved: Nothing

• Would not recommend – Elliott from Australia – 25 July 2024 (4/10)

  Apartment is fine. Nothing to write home about though.
  
  What could be improved: Check in process was ridiculous. You have to collect keys from an office across town which can not be accessed by car so you have to walk with your luggage. Staff did not respond so I was waiting on the street with my luggage for 40 mins in the heat. Tried to call a number provided several times – no answer and no return call. I thought the whole process was hard and the accommodation was not worth the money.

• Good value for price. – Martina from Croatia – 9 December 2023 (7/10)

  Location was very good, close to all attractions. It was nice, comfortable and warm in appartment when outside was -13 degrees and snow.
  
  What could be improved: TV wasn't working and handwritten instructions how to use it weren't correct. We expected better hygiene. Kettle was dirty and cups next to bed dusty.

• Good – Mack from Australia – 27 July 2023 (7/10)

  Location
  
  What could be improved: Shower was leaking into the bottom floor. Got an angry neighbour have a go at me

• Passable – Sara from Croatia – 21 July 2023 (5/10)

  Location is perfect.
  
  What could be improved: The place is far more worn down than I expected. Walls need cleaning and a fresh paint.

• The accommodation made my holidays unpleasant – Reza from Finland – 27 September 2022 (2/10)

  Location was good. Also the fact that I had access to excessive towels and bedsheets was good.
  
  What could be improved: As a frequent traveller, I have to admit this comment is making me uncomfortable; since it’s the first time that I am rating a property less than 8. Nevertheless, I believe it is my duty to be honest toward future travellers.
  I stayed 6 nights (Aug 2022) in this flat. From the pictures, I had got the impression that I would be staying in a recently renovated and modern flat. Unfortunately, the reality was far from it; especially bathroom. Entering the flat was like an immediate slap to my face.
  There are many downsides from which I write the ones that made my stay extremely uneasy.
  Mold:
  Bathroom walls and floor are renovated; though the smell of mold is extremely strong. I had to keep the bathroom door and flat windows open all the time so that the flat would be liveable (I can guess some people might not have as sensitive nose as I do, still I believe it has to be mentioned). For the reference, one can see the picture of bathroom curtain, which is white at the top, but the rest of the curtain is orange because of the mold. From the property picture it is clear that original color of the curtain has been fully white from top to bottom.
  Too weary:
  Shower holder bar was rusty and could not be adjusted. As a result, having water on the bathroom floor is inevitable every time that one takes a shower; no matter how hard one tries.
  Everything in the flat seems rather old and weary. For example the washing machine added small dark stains to my white clothes (probably to all my clothes, but white ones were easily visible).
  Key pick up:
  The property info reads that check in is possible 2pm-00:00 (midnight). What it does NOT read is that key pick up point is 20 min walking distance (1.6 km) in old town. It might be fun for a backpacker to wander around in narrow streets of old town to find the spot and then continue to the flat. However, I had 2 big bags (not easy on cobblestones streets of old town); I had to take a taxi from key pick up point to the property.

• Key pick-up was an adventure. Apartment was ok. – Monika from Germany – 14 September 2022 (5/10)

  Location of apartment is good, however the "bed" was a couch with a topper. Very uncomfortable, The apartment itself was quiet, but tiny. Fridge, bathroom and windows were fine.
  
  What could be improved: Once we arrived in the inner city for the key pick-up, there was no key in the safe and it took us 3 phone calls to reach someone. Aferwards it was another trip of 10 minutes to the location. Besides the key pick-up, the apartment was fine.
