My husband and I stayed in a total of 11 hotels during our Central Europe vacation, and this was our favorite experience out of them all! Fantastic location, staff, the breakfast was amazing, it was quiet, organized and well ran. We had our own private room with a huge restroom and there was also a little kitchenette. Totally cool!
Staff were fantastic and the place was clesn and very comfortable. Conveniently located 7 minutes walk from thd main train station. I will definitely be staying there again.
Paid a little extra, and it was definitely worth it. Very comfy bed and pillows. Everything had a clean feel to it. If I'm back in town, I'd love to stay here again.
It has everything you need and more! The breakfast was amazing, is not about variety but about how delicious it was! The bathroom was clean and the beds super comfortable.
Place is week located. Stuff is super polite. Breakfast is really good and affordable.
The bad I believe is the people that stay sometimes. My room I had this weird snoring all night. Then woke at 5 am. Doing more noise. If you can’t share a room. Move on to your own room.
I was only one night in the female dorm but it was very pleasant. Dorm is clean, good bathroom and even a little kitchen. On Friday there was “Free pancakes night”. Next morning I used the brunch option, excellent. I can only recommend this hostel :)
Delightful hostel. An airy, spacious room with its own washroom, although it was not air-conditioned. A nice bar where everyone mingled

3 nights stay in Prague
Stayed for 3 nights. The location is quite nice as it’s very close to subway station. However, tram is the main transportation around the city so you need to expect 5-7 mins to the station. Staff at the hostel are very friendly and lift inside the property is a plus.

Clean accommodations, comfortable bed, and delicious and cheap breakfast. Only complaint was that the key cards demagnetized constantly. I had to replace mine 6-7 times during a three-night stay.
Great hostel, the breakfast offering (160 / 220 czh for hot breakfast) was fantastic and great value for money. The shared kitchen is well equipped. They have a bar and was handy to pick up a hot drink on the go.
Location: It's 10-15 mins walk to the main attractions. 5 mins walk to I P Pavola metro station / Štěpánská tram stop.
Towels are available to rent for 30 czh and deposit of 100 czh (note that require cash only, but there's a bank ATM 1 min away).
I'd highly recommend the traditional Czech restaurant U Dlabačů also 1 min walk away.
I stayed in the 5 women dorm and it was perfect. Didn't realize there was a separate kitchen/eating area. That was great! The room itself was huge and super comfortable for 5 people, especially no bunk beds!! I can't say enough how much i loved the pillow! LOL... the entire stay was above my expectation. Staff super friendly and helpful. A totally 5 star experience! Thank you Sophie's Hostel! 😊👍
The staff were friendly no matter what time of day. The bed was clean, and massive pillow which I loved! The downside was the snorer on the first night but it’s not the hostel’s fault and it’s part of the risk of staying in a shared accommodation. If these are things you hate, pay for a private room. The other people in my room were friendly and gave me tips for my next trip. I was apprehensive in staying in a hostel but I wanted to save so I can book an experience in the city and I made the perfect choice. Clean, airy and convenient location.
I usually don’t stay in Hostels but there was some holidays in Prague (also a Marathon) thst jacked up prices everywhere so decided to try this place. It turned out to be a very nice stay, comfortable beds with privacy screens and very clean washrooms and showers. Breakfast was at additional cost but was delicious. Also has an elevator - room was on 4 floor (mine was 6 beds). Rooms are quiet time after 10. I used my ear plugs and eye mask (as I hadn’t sleep for 24 hrs) and slept like a baby. Each bed has a plug for phone charging as well. Very nice experience overall - walked everywhere from hotel.
I enjoyed my stay. There were 5 single beds available in the room. I could choose my bed. There was a bathroom with toilet and shower with hot water. The bathroom was very spacious.
There were utensils in the kitchen and a table with seats. There was a small fridge. It was possible to cook and make coffee.
Sheets were provided, but if you need towels you need to rent it and pay for a deposit fee. The deposit fee is recharged after your stay. They only accept cash as payment for that. I had to find an ATM to have cash. There’s one nearby - inside IBiS hotel.
I wish the cleaning was better. The bathroom always had a bad smell…I believe something about the drain. Also I had to ask the for paper toilet and toilets plastic bag. There is a lift.

Pros:
The breakfast bar area is beautiful and really well set up — one of the highlights of the stay. Staff were very helpful and friendly, and the showers had easy, reliable hot water which was a big plus.
Cons:
Some rooms are extremely cramped, which can feel uncomfortable. If you’re on a top bunk, be careful — the beds aren’t against the walls, so pillows can easily fall off in the night. I also had an unpleasant experience where I was shouted at for using a toilet that was free in the next section, being told I had to stick to “my own” area, which felt unnecessary and unwelcoming. There are no privacy curtains on the beds, not all storage lockers actually lock (it’s a bit of a lucky dip), and the bed lighting/charging points are inconsistent — some beds have older lights, while others have modern LED lights that brighten the whole room (so you feel bad for switching them on) and poor sockets.
Overall:
This place has some lovely touches and very helpful staff, but it’s let down by inconsistent facilities and some strange rules. If you don’t mind a few inconveniences, you may enjoy it, but it’s not the most comfortable or private hostel stay I’ve had.
There were 5 single beds available in the room. I could choose my bed. There was a bathroom with toilet and shower with hot water. The bathroom was very spacious.
There were utensils in the kitchen and a table with seats. There was a small fridge. It was possible to cook and make coffee.
