This quiet hotel easily lives up to the positive reviews on TripAdvisor and I'll certainly stay there again on my next trip to Prague.

Though my attic bedroom wasn't grand it was clean and comfortable and had a clean, modern bathroom. The breakfast was good and plentiful.

The Julian is located just across the Vltava - very near to the the Petrin Hill - and is easy to get to from the airport, with a tram stop just around the corner. From there you can catch a tram into the city centre if you want but it's much nicer to walk - it's only a 10 minute stroll across the river to the National Theatre and around 20 minutes to the very centre of Prague.

We stayed at the Hotel Julian for three days in April 2008. The hotel is a very attractive building in a non-touristy part of Prague. Our room on the first floor was large, comfortable and clean. The bathroom was modern and well-appointed. Breakfast was good and the coffee was awsome.
The hotel is located away from the main tourist sites but it's closer than it appears to the Charles Bridge and castle area. (about a 10 minute walk) Also the tram stops just around the corner. The tram system in Prague is very convenient and easy to use. The routes are clearly marked on the tourist maps given away by the hotel and tourism bureaus. We bought 3 day passes and used them often.

This hotel is very clean. The rooms were all redone in 2005 and it's nicer than the pictures on the website. Our room was on the top floor with the windows in the roof - querky and fun. The staff is very helpful and friendly. There is a restaurant but the food isn't very good - who cares when there are so many places to go eat in Prague! And at least there is food just in case. And of course, there's beer, Czech wine, and Becherovka that you can enjoy in the nice library or your room. The location is okay but not great. In the morning it doesn't seem like a long walk at all (1 mi to Castle, 0.5 mi to Charles Bridge), but after a long day of sightseeing, it seems very...far...away. There is a tram stop right there, but who on a 3-day vacation is really going to learn the system? However, the benefit of being away from the rest of the tourists is that you get to see how real people live and work. We would stay again despite being a little out of the way that's how nice it is, but then again, we don't mind walking.

We stayed at this hotel with another couple to celebrate my birthday and our silver wedding annivesary. We could not have made a better choice. The hotel was clean, well furnished and well laid out. The rooms were very comfortable and the staff were the most friendly, helpful staff you could wish for. Breakfast was great with a large choice of continental and full .....you must try the cheese.

The english pub (quiet) downstairs served superb food at superb prices. We hired the gym and sauna for an hour too. We could not fault anything and will definately go back again as would our friends.

As for Prague ... fabulously steeped in history, the river boat trips are excellent and the views in Prague are amazing especially from the castle.

We also paid 190 kc for four of us to go to Karljstein (return) on the train. This is an excellent day out if you are their for a few days.

The best few days ever!
