Fodor's Expert Review Dům U Červeného Lva

Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.

An intimate, immaculately kept baroque building dating to the 15th century, this hotel is right on the main thoroughfare in Malá Strana, a five-minute walk from Prague Castle's front gates. But a workout is included: it's a long walk uphill from the tram stop to get here, and once you arrive there is no elevator and the stairs are steep. Arrange check-in in advance, since there's no permanent reception at the hotel.
