It is a fabulous way to stay in Prague. Hotel is on the river walking distance to old town and castle. Good parking where parking is impossible. Rooms are obviously smaller than regular hotel rooms but charming, comfortable and warm with dark wood paneling. Shower is great and the view from rooms is fantastic on the river. Breakfast has a good selection of fruits, eggs, baked goods and cold cuts, very fresh and typical European. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Our room was on the one boat of the two where there is a restaurant and until it closed you can hear noise. My children's rooms were on the other boat and it was very quiet.

Very nice, comfortable room with a terrace, friendly staff, close to town, beautiful river views, will come again

Restaurant is on another boat, so for breakfast in autumn you go out and in fully clothed :)

Great room and facilities. Romantic view and feeling. Good wifi connection. Great breakfast included in the room price.

Room #1 is just bellow the bar, so a lot of noise was going on all night from the staff walking back and forth. When there were more guests it was quieter...no noise from 3 am until 8 am. You have discount in the restaurant as guest but our waiter pretend there isn't such. Salmon creme soup had large bones in it..maybe I am picky but didn't expect that in creme soup.

Excellent location, great restaurant, and extremely helpful staff. It's located straight in the center, and within walking distance of a lot of fun, and i will definitively stay here again given the chance. Without a doubt one of my favorite hotels of all time.

Wifi reception can be a bit too low for small devices in the furthermost rooms.

Location is excellent, staff friendly and helpful, rooms were maybe a bit small but with terrific ambience. Looking out of the window from our room, (which just above the river) was awesome. Highly recommend.

Bilge pump occasionaly ran at night.

Superb location, a hotel full of character and a pleasant change from big chain hotels. We had a superior double room with a river view, it was well fitted and very comfortable. Restaurant staff were particularly attentive and food was excellent. Free parking on the quay was a great bonus.

Nothing

I liked everything about this location and hotel. At first I wondered about noise since our room was dockside below a road and near a bridge. There were no concerns about noise. Great staff. Best breakfast on our entire Europe trip of several weeks.

The bicycles for rent by the hotel could use an upgrade. Too small or my wife's gears did not work well.

The location and the setting were magnificent. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were very comfortable, and the shower excellent. We had dinner at the restaurant, and our meal was very good.

The Wifi essentially did not work, especially in the rooms. But there was a computer that was available for use, and that met our needs.

The reception staff were more than helpful.The breakfast was delicious and had good options.The location was perfect.The room spacious,for a boat,very clean and the bed amazingly comfortable.Couldn't have made a better choice!

The only thing I didn't like was the fact the bed was so comfortable I didn't want to get up!!!!!!!

VERY unique experience being on a boat. flooding made it a little precarious but the Hotel (actually on KLOTYLDA boat) staff made it wonderful and safe. good internet.

Parking was non existent, paid parking was easily half kilometer away and a difficult drive, albeit partly due to weather. breakfast terrible, its in the adjacent boat. the staff was Totally disinterested in us, ONLY place in our 14 day Euro trip to charge extra for a Cappucino to replace their terrible coffee.

We did not have much time at this hotel as the day after we checked in, the river Vltava flooded so we had to be moved to a hotel on dry land. But the staff were very helpful with the move. The Boathotel is in a lovely location but as with most boats, the rooms are a little cramped. Their restaurant had excellent food and a wonderful outlook.

The location in the Vltava was astounding. Staff terrific. Esthetics lovely.

The lack of a phone in my room was a real drawback as I had to go over to the Boat Klotylda for any communication of whatever nature, including asking for a roll of toilet paper.

Great position and a fine restaurant linked to the Botel. Excellent staff. A pity about the flood that took it away.

Better organisation in the event of flooding to help with relocation and guarantee pricing of alternate accommodation.

Fab décor, being on a boat, near city centre. Being able to have a meal and listen to jazz after a long day sight seeing and then just going next door to bed.

Not enough pillows - only one very thin pillow, however, on 2nd night I asked for another and was given it.

Did not see one other hotel in Prague that we would have rather stayed in. Had a room facing the river, the noise of water from a near-by weir masked traffic noises nicely, beautiful view, close to everything. Great food and great staff. Pleasure to return to each day after sight-seeing.

We spent a great time on board. It was cozy and clean. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful, also the staff from the restaurant. The hotel is perfectly located and from there its easy to walk everywhere. I would suggest to think about better positioning of the trash cans - not in front of the window :))))))) But really we`d love to come back.

Location is excellent either walking or by tram down to the Charles Bridge, Old town and Castle precincts. Make sure you request a river view superior room as they have large sliding doors with fantastic views over the river. Staff were very helpful and friendly and spoke excellent English. While the rooms are smaller, the experience of staying on a boat well and truly makes up for it. A highlight of of trip. Parking on the quayside is free with a pass from the hotel.

Didn't want to leave!

The room was bigger than we expected, the room was clean, the breakfast was satisfying. Great location, very interesting experience

We came very late at nights so it didn't bother me, but the dinner upstairs can be noisy for all the people sleeping downstairs

We got the executive double room with the view of the river which was fantastic, and the room was very spacious with really classic decor. The cleaning staff are really thorough - I'd come back to find all my toiletries rearranged! The reception staff were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was really good too. Quite basic but it was of good quality. Perfectly located, there's a tram stop just next to the hotel and if you walk a little further there's a metro stop. On a good day it's actually fairly easy to walk everywhere from the hotel.

Nothing at all!

We liked a lot staying here, warm bedroom, very nice view, the restaurant is nice and not expensive, the botel is modern. Its well located, with tram 17 right in front

For almost 100 eur night the breakfast was so poor... Bread, orange juice, coffee, some fruit... It was the only negative aspect. We re used to have much more in hotel breakfast.

The location was great, just downstairs from the Dancing House. The hotel was very clean and rooms of correct size for a boat

It's not very easy to spot when driving and you can hear your neighbours moving around (it's a boat, so expect noise)

Great location, had a car parking was easy and no extra cost. Being a boat rooms were small but very unique with great views if on the river side. A great place to stay. Would also recommend the resturant, had dinner one night food and service was excellent.

Breakfast was very basic and although the rooms had TV not a English channel

This is a truely wonderful hotel, the rooms are spacious for what one can imagine a room in a boat hotel, perfectly clean and well decorated. Its very quiet, although the hotel is 10 min walk to Charles Bridge and to central square. We have enjoyed the beautiful river view and feeding ducks from our room window) The restaurant is a very good one, the dinners we had there were perfect (and with live jazz music on certain weeks days!), and the breakfasts are well served too. Very recommended place ! Would not go to any other hotel if back to Prague !

Everything is wonderful.

For unknown reasons I was upgraded to a double room. It was cozy, but a good size with a nice bathroom.

There was nothing not to like
