location: 20 Mins on foot to Old Town
Square
If you're prepared to stay a few minutes
away from the city centre then you can find some great
deals in Prague and the Arcotel Teatrino is one of them.
Located in the mostly residential area of Zizkov, the
Arcotel is still within walking distance to the centre
but guests can benefit equally from the range of trams
which stop a minute's walk away from the hotel and take
you to the centre is less than five minutes. Its also
one of the easiest hotels to reach from the airport by
public transport.
The building itself is a restored theatre and guests
at the Arcotel take breakfast in a spectacular room
between the stage and the gallery. There are also many
other original pieces in the hotel including some
stained glass windows. Bedrooms are large and modern and
in good condition. The patterned carperts won't be to
everyone's taste but they are otherwise simply styled
and comfortable. All have cable T.V., mini-bar and
hairdryers. The hotel has a fitness (Wellness) centre
with a small range of machines as well as a sauna and
steamroom (free) and massage room (charge).
As this is one of Prague's traditional districts this
is a good place from which to see the Czechs going about
their lives away from the souvenir shops. There are also
some local points of interest such as the New Jewish
Cemetery, an art-deco church and one of Prague's most
famous bars / clubs - the Akropolis. There's also no
shortage of local bars and restaurants all around the
hotel. |
