Perfect location - Clean and comfortable
Really enjoyed our stay in Prague. The staff at the Elite Hotel are polite and welcoming. The room was traditional, but clean and comfortable - Nice bathroom.
Good spot to explore Prague, not far from the main square. Good buffet breakfast as well. Would highly recommend.

Elite but not quite Cream of the Crop
For our three-night stay in Prague, a friend of ours recommended the Elite hotel. It looked quite modern from the outside but was apparently 14th century in origin and had undergone a recent refurbishment. We have stayed in more luxurious hotels, but this one in Ostrovni Street was in the heart of the town. The metro & tram station was just around the corner, once you'd made your way past the loitering drunks and drug-addicts there.
Breakfast was served in a small cafe at the front of the hotel. We saw the first goal of the Euro 2004 England v Croatia game in the Dog’s Bollocks pub just a few doors away, surrounded by smoking, cheering Croatians. We saw the second half back at the crammed and animated hotel bar, the Ultramarine, where the beers were plentiful and the final score was 4:2 to England. We went to the hotel lobby bar for our night-cap, but it was one of those sedate places where people whisper and we didn’t stay long.
