Capsule Hostel Top Wenceslas Square Prague has sleeping capsules, which give more privacy than an open bunk. It is on Anglická street, about 5 minutes from the statue of St Wenceslas, with a shared kitchen and 24-hour reception. It is a good fit if you travel alone and want a functional place near the centre.
Location and getting around
The address is Anglická 530/8. Prague main station (Praha hlavní nádraží) is about 10 minutes on foot. About 20 minutes away you have Old Town Square, the Powder Tower, Masarykovo nádraží and the Dancing House. Prague Castle is 2.7 km away: for that trip, public transport or a taxi is better.
Rooms and facilities
You sleep in capsules, with a flat-screen TV in the rooms and free Wi-Fi. Bathrooms are shared, with a shower and hairdryer. Towels and bed linen are included.
The shared kitchen is fully equipped and there is a common lounge. Reception never closes and helps you organise excursions.
Who it suits
- Solo travellers who prefer a capsule to a bunk.
- Backpackers arriving by train at the main station.
- Anyone who wants to cook and sign up for organised tours.
- Those who leave early or late, because you can check out at any hour.
Good to know
Breakfast is not served, but you have the shared kitchen to prepare your own. Check-in is from 15:00 to 22:00; if you arrive later, let them know. Check-out can be done at any hour. Bathrooms are shared and the capsule has no bathroom of its own. You can see other hostels in the city.
