White House

I stayed recently at this hotel for five days. This review will address two categories: comfort and safety. 1) fire safety appears to be of a low priority in this hotel. The egress from the top floor is via stairs that have combustible material on them that also partially block the route, the fire extinguishers on my floor weren't where the fire map showed, and were partially hidden on the floor, no emergency exit signs on the top floor and on lower floors were hidden, the kitchen (highest risk for a fire to start) is on the lower ground floor next to the stairs, which is the only egress in the building and would essentially act like a chimney, there are no smoke protection doors at all to protect sleeping accommodation. 2) The things that impacted my comfort and enjoyment were: no lift so had to carry a heavy suitcase up two flights of narrow stairs with no assistance available, the window curtain in the room was totally ineffective at keeping light out as it was too small for the window and made of a flimsy, see-through material, the shower head was too high and pointing at the opposite wall, there is no refrigerator or kettle in the room (was offered access to a kettle in the kitchen down three flights of stairs, challenges with communication as the ladies that run the hotel weren't fluent in English, which resulted in miscommunication and an error that cost me.

A hotel with the smell of home, great people, great cuisine, pleasant relaxation, with impressive views of Prague and, surprisingly, clean air from the nearby forests, mountains and slopes, because it is located on a hill in a residential area away from dusty traffic and so close to the subway. This hotel has received from its clients Order of the Golden Hotel and Order of the Golden Cuisine in the 2021.
