What people say
I had to stay in Prague overnight between the inbound and outbound flights and I found this place the most valuable in such case for a budget traveller who appreciates privacy and cleanness but doesn't need extras. Just two bus stops from terminal 2 (less than 10 min ride), buses are frequent. (But it's not possible to walk through the airport.) A couple more practical points in addition to what people have said here. 1. The hostel is within sight from the bus stop K Letiste: take off the bus, . all reviews »
First: the location, although un-popular location, namely "not in
center of town" I congratulated myself for choosing it for being so
close to the air-terminal of my flight home [carrying heavy luggage],
yet with excellent public transportation connection to any and every
touristic spot in Prague. Second: I enjoyed the big , comfortable and
well lit room and the amenities [shower and sink plus a refrigerator,
inspite the fact that hte wc and the self-catered kitchen are in the
common corridor].
The receptionist was very friendly although she struggled a little bit to communicate in English. Despite the language barrier, she managed to make our taxi reservation and woke us up on time as we left very early in the morning. I strongly recommend this hostel to those who are looking for a hotel/hostel nearby airport. We stayed in a room equipped with shower and it was huge for two of us! the room was clean and internet access was good. Thumbs up!.
Clean, cheap, very - very close to the airport, just 3 stops by 119 bus (you have to read carefully description how to find the hotel). You need to pay from the beginning, so it is good if you will have some local cash. In lobby machine with snacks and drinks, it was good for me. Overall it is good place and excellent if you have late or early flight. I would stay there again.
The keywords are convenience and location. The room was, as I expected, basic but clean. I had a shower which worked well and the location was excellent for both arriving and departing flights. For somebody looking for budget accommodation I would recommend this hostel, whether the travellers were on business, tourists or backpackers.
Excellent location, just 5 minutes by bus to airport (Terminal 1 & 2). Rooms are really simple, but clean, big and conformable enough for few nights. Also internet signal is strong. Excellent value for money! The lady at reception was very helpful although her English skills were modest.
Although it is near the airport, it is quiet and I slept well. All 3 public transportation bus lines that go to the airport stop almost by the front door at stop Terminal 3. The night bus goes at least twice an hour so it was easy to get to my early flight.
whn your plane gets in late to Prague ,its only 3 stops on the bus away,,,so can get to sleep quickly rather than traveling to centre ,,,next day you can have food at the excellent airclub restaurant then get a bus to the metro and city centre.
Friendly staff. Nice, clean and comfortable room. It was also thoughtful that the ladies room was accessible only with a key (to avoid any kind of harassment I suppose). Location near the airport is very handy for traveling purposes.
Very close to the airport (5 minutes by bus running 24/7). Friendly
staff. Rooms for no smokers. Quiet place though close to the airport.
Ideal for spending a night before an early flight.
Close to Airport, no hassle in getting there and Friendly staff.
Cheap, clean, no frills. Perfect for a night's sleep before an early flight.
Very clean, very quiet, and the single room the receptionist gave me was huge with nice view onto a green tree-lined area.
reception 24/7, towel and toiletries provided, wi-fi, staff polite, next to bus stop with bus running day and night.
NEar to the airport, clean facilities and nice staff. Right next to the bus stop for Terminal 3.
Close to airport. Bus stop 2 min from hotel, easy to get to center.
Near the airport! quite, clean, very cheap :).
Nice room for the price.
Near the airport, cheap.

- there are buses to the city centre too in briefly 15 minutes
- snacks and coffee at the vending machine are cheap
- there's a ticket machine at the entrance where you can buy tickets for bus and metro so it's convenient
- cheap.
1. Location: take bus 119, get off on airport terminal 3 stop(remember
ring the bus driver) and there you are, it's easy to find, and
very easy way to the airport;
2. Budget: i booked triple room with shower(shared toilet), only costed 19 Euro per night;.
Great location for those who have really early or late flights. Good transportation links to the airport, bus station and city centre. Staying here is like stepping back into pre-1989 Prague. Very good value for money. Clean. Wifi.
Just 3 bus stops to the Airport"s main terminals. Clean. Comfortable hotel for transit stop, if you have late arrival or early depature flight. They have avtomates for coffee and transport ticket in hall.
Good price for a clean place to spend the night. Very close to the
airport with excellent public transportation options.
A vending machine that sells BEER !
A chance to experience Communist era hotel.
Good price, clean hostel, beer and coffee in vending machine, on bus line to airport: excellent place to sleep with early morning departure.
Quite cheap hostel,good value of money/30 min from city center,quiet
place,polite but only local language speaking reception.
Got non smoking room. Prague airport can be reached by bus in 5 min. Ideal for one night stay before early morning flight.
Close to airport and very clean. Easy to get to from center of Prague. Reccomended to anyone with early morning flights.
location near the airport.
I spent in the hostel one night only, that's why I cannot tell more about it.
Location was good because we had an early flight and stayed the night before for a good price.
Perfect for early flight. Promixitimy to airport. Really basic though. Fair for the price.
Excelent location!.
Bus leaves almost in front of the building to the airport terminals.
-Close to the airport
-Rooms are large
-Cheap relative to in-town.
transportation from city to thye hostel.
close to the airport (5 mins by bus).
They do keep the place clean.
near by aeroport.
Location.
-.
The toilets are in the common corridor unlike shower rooms, which are shared by just two rooms in a locked block.
The cutlery in kitchen isn't many, esp. problematic can be cups or glasses if you get behind other guests. And I didn't manage to get the microwave work on level 1, but it could be equally probable its problem as well as mine :).
The only drawback is the ridiculous arrangement of the Women's
toilets: there are 2 stalls for the entire corridor, and one of them is
locked for the use of the staff... ! I had to ask the staff who
responded politely by keeping the key in the door thus alowing use of
both stalls by female guests.
A little bit hard to find a specialy at night time, no sign on hotel. Read carefully description how to find the hotel (you may take bus 119, 3 station you go out, cross the street to the opposite side and go back 300 metters).
Do not forget to bring your own shower gel/shampoo and get the frequent bus to the airport terminal if you wish to eat, do not try to walk. These are not criticisms simply helpful advice to other travellers since I will be staying here again!!.
There was a shower in the room but no toilet. Strange.
Some people will not like the toilet in the hall arrangement.
only downside is the shared toilets down the corridor,,,not ensuite,,,but for the money you cant complain.
Although the staff members were friendly, they couldn´t communicate in English. There aren´t any shops to buy food or restaurants to go, so if you are not prepared with your own food you have satisfy your hunger with the hostel's snack-machine that has some candybars and softdrinks to offer.
Better to pay in local currency. Credit cards are not accepted.
Selection in vending machine. Not a great deal not to like for a quick simple stay over.....
noice from work outside the hostel.
No wifi in the room.
No toilet in room.
Worker don't speak english.
I forgot to mention there are no computers at this hostel. But they say
there is free wifi. Also, it helps to print out your booking in the
local language, available at letsbookhotel.com.. Makes it much easier to hand
that to them instead of trying to overcome the language barrier. Print
one in English and one in local language.
- the wifi's available only in the public area, which is a small area at the corner of the lobby
- no kitchen (or we can't find it?)
- the staff can't speak English (almost at all).
1. Service: staffs there were very nice to me but they don't speak
English,alth it's ok to carry on a very basic conversation;
2.Wrong info:the confirmation note indicated that breakfast is included, but there's no breakfast at all!!! it's a bit misleaded thou.
Not great signage from the street. Definitely not a luxury option.
There is no any dish.
No WiFi in room, only in common areas.
No towels in the room, weak wi-fi.
There wasn't reallu much not to like.
the personnel doesn't speak English, though everybody was very friendly and helpful.
It's not cosy at all.
It's strictly a place for if you just need a place to stay near airport for one night.
-Difficult to find at night (no signs, or any indication it is a hotel)
-Must take the bus to Terminal 3; cannot walk to the hotel from the airport
-Morning staff does not speak anything other than Czech
-It is better to just take the bus into town rather than stay here, even if you arrive after midnight (like I did).
not clean...badly maintained..very dirty...bad wi fi connection...
personal don't speak english, no toilets in the rooms (1 per floor).
The beds are very bad, very small not suitable if you're taller than 1.80cm. And very very hard. Sheet can't be tucked under so it will move and you're laying on the dirty matress.
comfort.
There is a smell of cigarettes everywhere, and staff don't speak any English, also they should accept more currencies.
English spraking.
Whole place was full with smoking people...The smell was everywhere.
