this is a 14th century building, superbly located made into a hotel.That to me, a draw. My room was on the third floor, under the roof; the elevator only reaches the second floor. On checkin I was told I would have to bring my luggage up to the third floor myself. The ancient staircase to that floor does not have evenly placed steps, nor are they level, at 90 degree angles-- treacherous. I clung to the bannister and proceeded very slowly throughout my stay. For departure, there was no way I would stand at the top of that staircase with a suitcase whose weight could pull me to a fall and asked for help. The desk attendant the night before my departure said his shift ended before I would be leaving my room and that the person on the next shift was a woman, who could not help. I managed to get all that needed to be put into checked luggage into the piece early-- then had to go downstairs to ask his help because I could not reach the desk using the room phone. He did come up, and about the backpack I also left for taking down, asked, you want me to take that, too? He did but the whole thing was not service to be expected. In general, if one asked for something, staff responded but only in response. Breakfast is heavy on meats; there were vegetables, yogurt, cheese, and bread. The bathroom gets tiny plastic containers of shampoo-- all Hotels.com listed hotels should be required to transition to wall-mounted containers of quality shampoo, soap, and hair conditioner.

You cannot get a better place for a hotel in Prague than Hotel Cerny Slon. It's right in the middle of the Old Town.

The staff were very polite and courteous. They helped whenever I needed it.

I never tried the breakfast buffet so I can't comment on that but the dinner I had was to a very high standard.

The room I was in was very spacious and had a lovely medieval feel to it, with it's timber ceiling, even though it had contemporary features.

Overall, I would highly recommend Hotel Cerny Slon to anyone that was going to Prague.

The hotel had a great location. The staff were very nice. The breakfast was also great. The hotel was in a old building which the decoration was very unique. The only thing I didn't like was the noise during the night. Due to the location was next to the old town square, there were a lot of restaurants opening very late that the guests from the restaurants were pretty loud. I could hear the guests singing and shouting and laughing at 1:00-2:00am in the morning which could be very disturbing to my sleep.

Brilliant Old Town location

Situated just off the main square in the Old Town, check in was quick and helpful. The room had a view of the little cobbled square at the side of the hotel which was busy with thirsty tourists partaking in a beverage at the lityle bar as well as people passing through. Never noisy though. The room was pleasant enough however the air conditioning unit was rather noisy.

I had dinner in the hotel restaurant and it was decent, washed down with the local beer.

Excellent hotel in the Old Town surrounded by many of the magnificent buildings, including the Astronomical Clock

Choose higher ground

Staff, place, $10 euro breakfast buffet and right next to main plaza all great, except we stayed one floor above the lobby (first floor) and at night time, clients from the nearby bar/restaurant tended to be loud when you are trying to sleep. Choose to stay in a higher floor or away from the street corner. Other than that, i recommend this place.

The hotel is located right next to a busy area (during Christmas season) but still remains quiet. Very convenient. The staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast is nothing special but has enough options to choose from for a fulfilling breakfast. Overall, I really enjoy my stay there. Should mention though, there is no elevator so you need to carry your luggage up the stairs.

The location was superb, but it came with a price - noise from a nearby bar continued until 2 am. Then it was bell noise from the church and traffic just below the windows. There might be quieter rooms at this hotel but we got possibly the worst choice. Amenities are of a good 3 star hotel.

We were a little disappointed with this hotel, given the great reviews we had read. The main benefit is the location and we really enjoyed it.
But besides that the hotel is a little run down. The doors are hard to close; cabinets are uneven, our window didn’t close properly. When made aware of the issue, staff shrugged that they didn’t have anyone to fix it; it seemed to be a known problem. This was exacerbated by the fact that they let a piano player play until past midnight in the street right below our window, and we could hear everything because we couldn’t close the window. But this didn’t seem to bother them to have a musician pick this exact spot in the long alley where he could have settled.
In addition they served us expired milk with coffee at breakfast.
The hotel is cute and centrally located but we didn’t feel that we could enjoy it as much as we were hoping for given several issues that came up.

Nice place. The bathroom fixtures are a bit outdated, but the whole place was very clean. The bed wasn’t super comfortable, but it’s a perfect location if you want to be in the center of the tourist area.

Air con. Water kettle in room. No coffee maker. Spacious. If you have mobility issues do not book third floor. Right in the mix of it all. Just off the square with the famous clock. Great vegan restaurant next door. Just book it! All staff were wonderful!

Front desk staff were both pleasant and helpful.
The hotel is in a great part of the old city.
I loved the Cathedral bells in the morning, did not like the noisy party people in the street, but that is nothing to do with the hotel.

Beautiful, old school hotel right on Old Town Square. Late night crowds were a little loud, but it’s worth it for the location.

Location that couldn’t be beaten. Fifty metres from the old town square. Great breakfast and restaurant for dinner. Friendly and helpful staff. Spacious room. Only improvement could be to supply coffee and milk in the rooms as only tea is provided.

The place was great. However, I specifically selected the property for parking using parking filter. I was sent 1 km away and had to spend 50 euros for overnight parking.

Great Stay

Service was very good. Breakfast was also good. We stayed on the top floor in a double twin room and was very cozy. Beds were comfortable and the blankets were extremely warm. Great location. Only complaint was the shower. Water pressure was good but the placement of the shower head made it hard not to get water everywhere in the bathroom. There is a partition but it only goes around part of the tub. Ceiling was low over the tub which would be difficult for a taller person.

Can't say enough wonderful things about this charming hotel. Wonderful location on lovely small street at Old Town square, even though it was near the square it was pretty quiet. Elevator (only up to 2nd floor) took us up to our rooms with lovely old world charm and beamed & stenciled ceilings. The rooms were very clean! They also served a beautiful buffet breakfast (it's worth the fee) in a small warm and quaint restaurant on main floor. We also had dinner there a couple of nights and the menu was good and the food, very good!
Now the staff.....the kitchen people, cleaning people, waiters in the adjoining bar all Excellent! We dealt with the front desk staff the most, they all were extremely helpful with everything. Lucas during the day was so helpful, knowledgeable and wonderful to talk to. Lukas at night desk was also great, knowledgeable and good to talk to. We both had a wonderful experience at this hotel and if I should return, Hotel Cerny Slon (Black Elephant) is where I stay and I have already told friends.

Not a four star hotel

We booked an 8 day stay. the person at the front desk when we arrived was friendly and helpful. but he wasn't present for the most of the rest of our stay. The people that took over were often not at the front desk and somewhat cold.
The hotel was in an old building. However, the rooms were not updated. The bathtub was very tall and was difficult to get out of at times.
The room was somewhat dirty. There was dust on the floor for our entire stay.
The hotel was on a very noisy corner. We didn't have any sound proofing and there was large groups of people outside of our window. very loud and probably drunk.
Finally, we payed extra for our breakfast in the morning. It very poor. not worth paying for.

This hotel was quaint. It was old but in an antique way. The room was a good size. We moved the bed to clean behind it. Huge cob webs and tons of dust. The breakfast was ok. The location was great. It was right by the main square. Easy to walk to to the astronomical clock and not far from Charles bridge. I would stay again because of location

Perfect old world service and atmosphere

This was my second stay at Cerny Slon, located right beside the Tyn church. You could not get a better location. The staff are all so helpful and go out of their way - they even packed us a substantial breakfast because we were leaving early on the day we left. The restaurant has delicious Czech food and it is lovely to wake up to the sound if church bells.

Spent one night here when I was stuck in Prague when my flight got cancelled. Very good location, just a block from the old town square. Room was very clean and the bed quite comfortable. The hotel has a nice breakfast buffet (for an extra charge). Bathroom was fairly spacious.
Negatives- the temp was in the 90’s when I was there and my room did not have air conditioning (just a fan). Because you are in a very popular area, it was fairly noisy outside (as I had to keep the windows open at night to cool off).
I would definitely consider staying there again though.

This hotel is in an excellent location literally steps from Old Town Square. The staff were very friendly/helpful. The room was comfortable and we found to be quite sound proof if you had the windows closed. We were there in June. There was no air conditioning but they provided a fan which was perfect. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Hotel Cerny Slon was the perfect location for my two night stay in Prague. It was right next to a historic church and only a few steps away from the old town square. The onsite restaurant was also very good. I would definitely stay here anytime in Prague.
