Charming traditional retreat in 16th-century Emperor's residence, set beneath the walls of Prague Castle. Wander up the cobbled, traffic-free streets to The Golden Well (U Zlate Studne), clinging to the wall in the shadow of Prague Castle, and you will uncover one of the city's best kept secrets. This modest collection of little inter-locking houses was once home to Emperor Rudolf II, and later the astronomer Tycho de Brahe. Sensitive renovation - has created a cosy yet refined hotel. The result is a pleasing balance of mod cons - internet access, satellite TV - and old style elegance.

I am a road warrior who is pretty certain to stay at a Hyatt or a Marriott when I am in a large city. I stepped outside that mold when planning a 5-day getaway with my adult daughter to Prague and I feel that we were both well rewarded for it. The Golden Well was not just a unique experience, but an extraordinarily quiet place to unwind after (or in the middle of) long days exploring one of Europe's most fascinating cities. And, the breakfast and the late-afternoon snacks were fantastic.

Hotel's Favourite
There are hotels in the world that make other choices in the area superfluous. Examples include The Grand Hotel in Milan and The Merrion Hotel in Dublin. The Golden Well is one of those hotels. The location is elegant and quiet, yet central. The views are striking. The staff is friendly, and the restaurant is excellent. The room are well-appointed, comfortable, and unique. The Golden Well makes visiting Prague simple; I would not stay anywhere else.

Amid the tourist mayhem that hits you anywhere you turn in Prague, this small boutique hotel offers genuine hospitality and luxury. The rooms are unique and ooze character. The breakfast is superb, served in their top floor restaurant with stunning views over the city. If you have the chance to book a table for dinner here you will not regret it. The atmosphere just really worked for me. Highly recommend this hotel for the discerning traveler.

Lovely hotel tucked away at the end of a cobled street under the walls of the castle. Very professional and friendly staff, wonderful room and breakfast. Good location for exploring Prague, only a 5 min walk from Charles bridge, but quiet location.

We stayed at Golden Well for Christmas, and had a magical time. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Our room was beautifully decorated and comfortable. Views from breakfast were gorgeous. The treats and touches in the room and lounge were lovely. Everyone was kind and accommodating to our energetic one-year-old. Thanks to everyone on staff who helped give our little family the perfect Christmas. We can’t wait to stay at Golden Well again next time we visit Prague!

Beautiful and charming boutique hotel nestled beneath walls of Prague Castle and less than 10 minutes walk to the Charles Bridge. Helpful and attentive staff and outstanding service all round! Breakfast was just perfect, everything cooked fresh and to order with the most beautiful views over the rooftops of Prague! Served with a smile and a lovely glass of cold bubbles to enhance that pure luxury feel! Little treats and complimentary drinks offered throughout our stay... couldn't fault it! This hotel is a hidden gem... highly recommended! Christmas here was magical experience but can't wait to return in the summer to sit out on the lovely terrace and walk through the beautiful hotel gardens which were sadly closed during our stay. Well done and thank you to all the Staff at the Golden Well! We hope to see you again soon :) L & G Mc

We really loved our stay at the Golden Well hotel. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was absolutely great, plenty big with nice bathrooms, with many nice little touches. Great views from the windows and a super location. Really can’t think of anything negative, and can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our stay.
