The Facilities

Dorms

The dorms here range in size from 4 beds all the way up to 12 beds. Some, but not all of the rooms have ensuite bathrooms. Rooms have air conditioning and heat, too. Lockers are provided which are big enough to hold your backpacks or luggage. Some of the rooms have quite a lot of historical charm, too.

Private Rooms

All of the rooms here provide dorm style bunks, but if you have a private group, you can book a dorm room to yourselves.

The bathrooms at Hostel Santini are modern, immaculately clean, and spacious. Plenty of hot water can be found in them. Towels are provided, and hair dryers are located in the bathrooms. Shampoo is also included. No complaints here.

Bar

A casual bar and cafe is found here, and it's a nice place to just relax and unwind with a beer while chatting with other guests. This is not a particularly loud bar known for partying, but rather a more social and relaxed spot.

Common Areas

In addition to the communal kitchen which is a great spot to cook up a meal, the lounge area has comfortable seating, a large piano, TV, and more.

What's Nearby?

The "Lesser Town" is the area on the west side of the river where the Castle is located, and it is full of history as well as restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops. The Charles Bridge is nearby and all of Old Town is just a few minutes on foot. The castle and several old churches and museums are in the other direction up the hill. Everything is within easy reach via public transportation, too.

Nearby Transportation

The tram line runs right near the hostel, so you can get to other neighborhoods in Prague fairly quickly. On the tram you can get to the main train station in 20 to 30 minutes depending on the time of day, or to the airport in less than an hour.

The staff is very helpful and works hard to keep everything clean. The guest reviews tend to call out the overall immaculate cleanliness of this hostel, so their hard work shows. They also can help you plan your time in Prague by pointing out the best places to go and things to see.

Heads Up

Some guests say the location is a little further out of Old Town than they thought, while others love the location. Also, some guests said that the hostel was too quiet for them, while others loved the relaxed yet social vibe. This is definitely not a party hostel, and maybe that's what you want.
