Hotel Relax Inn

“Practical and simply good enough, but don’t expect luxury.”

Stayed over last weekend for the first time and overall my stay was very pleasant. Excellent location if you’re wanting to attend a concert/event @ the O2 arena which you can reach on foot easily in about 30mins (or take 1 bus stop & walk about 5-10mins).

Stayed over last weekend for the first time and overall my stay was very pleasant. Excellent location if you’re wanting to attend a concert/event @ the O2 arena which you can reach on foot easily in about 30mins (or take 1 bus stop & walk about 5-10mins). Shopping mall is literally adjacent to the O2 arena too. Great public transport connection with a bus stop to the tube only a couple of minutes away (2 bus stops to the tube), I’d recommend to download the PID app (will be in English) to get exact connections and purchase tickets for travel in Prague. Wi-fi in the hotel was fast and much appreciated, as was the lift coz we were on 4th floor. Didn’t see the restaurant/bar open (if it’s in the same area as breakfast) and never asked so cannot comment. This part of Prague is rather residential, I have a feeling that even the hotel used to be a block of flats prior to being a hotel? Our room was ok, albeit a bit ‘tired’ (401) but overall it was simply practical enough with a wee fridge incl wee freezer compartment, kettle, some teabags, teaspoons and also wine glasses. Towels were clean, bed comfy. I enjoyed the view of the shopping mall and the O2 arena etc . Trains running past was quite nice to hear. Water in the shower was running cold @ first but turned warm after a bit, so I guess it must the pressure? Not sure. Breakfast was very good, and again sufficient, quite a lot of cold meat choices, cheese, boiled eggs, vegetables, jams, honey, spreadable cheese, bread and sweet bread, and breadrolls, toast, cereals, fruits; hot food selection was baked beans, hot dogs and steamed veg. Coffee is dispensed from a coffee machine, it was quite foamy but still nice & tasty. Milk, tea and 2 different juices were available too. There is a fabby pool (incl whirlpool) in the hotel too! I was hoping it would be free to visit but actually you do have to book your session via reception as an extra (approx. £10/hour/person) but what was great was that we had the pool to ourselves! & you get a towel too. Staff were all very helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this place, and I will also be back in future.
