We spent ten days in Prague in May, 2023, staying at the Dancing House, and we couldn't have been happier. The conventional wisdom for a hotel in Prague is to find one on Old Town to be close to the many tourist sites, but the location of the Dancing House offered several benefits: there is a tram stop just outside of the hotel, and around both corners to the left and the right about six blocks away is a Metro station. We never once felt ”away from the action” during our stay in the city. We had a beautiful room, 402, which was spacious and comfortable with three large windows. Every morning we would get up and pull back the curtains to a view of the river and the Jirásek Bridge. Then we took the elevator up three flights to the breakfast room on the seventh floor, being sure to take one of the tables by a window. There was nothing more that we could have wanted as the selection of items was comprehensive, but I especially like the machine which dispensed cups of black coffee, café au lait, cappuccino, and espresso. And the bottles of Prosecco! There is also a nice coffee/gift shop on the ground floor where we stopped two afternoons for ice cream. The only feature of the hotel we didn’t especially like was the rooftop bar. We were given two passes to enter the bar but we didn’t buy a drink. The views are wonderful, but it was crowded with nowhere to sit, so we just walked around once and left. We found two bonuses staying at the Dancing House hotel: one was a nice wine bar, Wine Not, one hundred meters away at Masarykovo nábřeží 8- We stopped here several afternoons after sight-seeing to sample a glass (or two) of wine and to chat with the servers. And the second was a floating restaurant just across the street from the hotel – Restaurant Matylda. Luckily, we had dinner here on our second night and enjoyed it so much that we returned for one more dinner before leaving for home. A tip – the octopus carpaccio is great. And there are two open areas on the boat. On two afternoons we sat at a table on the bow in the sunshine and sipped chilled Czech Rose. If we ever return to Prague we will not hesitate to stay once again at the Dancing House.
