But what about U zlaté studně (Golden Well Hotel), a smallish and (relatively) affordable destination tucked away down a small Mala Strana street?
In recently-released Traveller’s Choice Awards for 2016, popular travel website TripAdvisor has named U zlaté studně the “Top Luxury Hotel” in Europe – and the third best in the world.
“A beautiful, quiet hideaway at the end of a narrow lane, tucked into the Castle Gardens,” the site quotes from one of its user reviews. “The staff is warm, welcoming and knowledgeable — we felt like family immediately.”
