Review of My Hotel Apollon 3*

If you're on a budget and looking for somewhere that's in a good location, cheap and near to public transport then this hotel in Prague is ideal. Although far from perfect this hotel is Ikea-design inspired (and bought) bed and breakfast rates were excellent — you can't go far wrong for £20 a night but just not here (thanks, wifey! ) See below for list of pros and cons: Pros: — English speaking receptionists — All you can eat continental breakfast — Good location 5 mins from tram to city centre — Comfortable beds and clean rooms/lobby — Reasonably quiet — Free Wi-Fi in lobby/restaurant — Near a Lidls for cheap food — Excellent take away pizza restaurant 5 minutes down the street (go left out of hotel entrance) Cons: — Limited breakfast choice — Receptionists are a little moody but efficient — Maintenance of room* *Our room had peeling wallpaper and a dripping roof 2 nights in to our stay so we were moved to another room after we complained and the receptionist was very efficient. Still — shouldn't have happened. Some tips for Prague: — Buy a public transport pass at the airport. 550 crowns for 5 days per person. Dirt cheap and great value. Covers the metro, trams, funicular and buses. Amazing value! — Try Trdelnik! It's a form of crispy pancake. Stands in Wenceslas Square — Check out Wenceslas Square, Prague Castle, the Astronomical Clock, Mulled wine stands for cheap snacks and be aware of pickpockets although we were ok on this trip. Also check out the amazing metro stations (built by the Russians). Enjoy.
