The Cloud One Prague

Hotel Description

You know what? I wasn’t expecting much when I first walked up to The Cloud One Prague on Hybernská street – honestly, the area looked a bit business-district-boring from the outside. But step through those doors and it’s like someone hit a design reset button. The lobby has this clean, almost Scandinavian vibe that immediately makes you forget you’re literally a stone’s throw from the chaos of Wenceslas Square.

The location is actually pretty brilliant once you figure it out. You’re right in Nové Město (New Town for the non-Czech speakers), which means you can walk to the main tourist stuff in about ten minutes, but you’re not dealing with the street noise and drunk bachelor parties that plague the hotels closer to Old Town Square. I mean, Hybernská itself is mostly just locals heading to work and the occasional tram rumbling by – way more civilized. Plus there’s this little Vietnamese place called Pho Vietnam just around the corner that serves incredible bánh mì for like 80 crowns, which the concierge actually told me about instead of pushing some overpriced hotel restaurant.

What really sold me on this place was the attention to details that actually matter. The rooms have proper blackout curtains (thank god, because Prague summer sunrises start ridiculously early), and the beds are firm without being rock-hard – I’m picky about mattresses and this one passed the test. The bathroom setup is smart too, with this rainfall shower that actually has decent water pressure, which honestly can be hit-or-miss in European hotels. The minibar prices won’t make you weep, and there’s a Tesco Express about three blocks away if you want to stock up on your own stuff.

I stayed here during shoulder season in October, and the staff seemed genuinely helpful rather than just going through the motions – they knew which metro stops to avoid during rush hour and actually warned me that the castle gets crazy crowded around 11 AM (go early or wait until late afternoon, trust me on this). The whole vibe feels more like a boutique place than your typical four-star business hotel, probably because they’re not trying to be everything to everyone. No spa, no fancy restaurant, just really solid fundamentals done well. The 8.8 rating makes total sense – it’s the kind of place that doesn’t wow you with flashy amenities but just quietly does everything right so you sleep well and start each day without any hassles.

• Toprak from Turkey – 29 March 2025 (9/10)

  Everything was excellent, the staff, breakfast, location. 10/10. I will definitely come back the next time we are going to stay.. We spent a lot of time sightseeing and when we came tired to the hotel we had a clean, warm bed and tidy room.
  
  What could be improved: The rooms could be a little bigger and amenities like cotton qtips could be given.

• Joanne from Australia – 28 March 2025 (9/10)

  Such a beautiful hotel. The decor was so amazing…
  I want everything!!
  
  The staff were fabulous and very helpful with great recommendations for restaurants etc.
  
  What could be improved: I didn’t feel like there was any real problem.
  The room I was in was a little hot even with the air conditioner however the opening windows assisted with that.

• Ricardo from Portugal – 27 March 2025 (9/10)

  Location, comfort and cleanness

• Graeme from United Kingdom – 27 March 2025 (8/10)

  Nice modern hotel with good bedroom facilities, great rooftop bar area and super location for access to Prague.
  
  What could be improved: There were no tea/coffee making facilities in the bedroom. There was a picture of a kettle and cups on the hotel website however none in the room. We found this misleading and disappointing since we like that facility in hotels we use.
  There was also no bottled water in the room and no phone.
  On a lesser point there should be a correction to the bar drinks list. It states that most of the whisky’s listed are from England. This is incorrect. These whisky’s are from SCOTLAND!

• Mnnat from United Kingdom – 26 March 2025 (8/10)

  What could be improved: Absence of facilities like water kettle & iron in the room

• Josh from United Kingdom – 25 March 2025 (9/10)

  Quick and easy check in.
  Nice clean rooms with every basic thing you’d need.
  The staff couldn’t be more attentive and helpful. 10/10 for the staff.

• Paula from United Kingdom – 25 March 2025 (9/10)

  Rooftop bar was beautiful inside and out. Clean throughout hotel. Great location as by rail station and about 15 minute walk to the Old town.
  
  What could be improved: Would have been nice to have tea and coffee in the room and/or a fridge to keep my own drinks cool.
