Miss Sophie's Olomouc - Boutique Hotel

Location to main square excellent. Historical theme very nice. Breakfast in cafe lovely. Amenities including fruit basket top notch. Shower large walk in. Bed comfy. Unfortunately, our room 2 in the front was noisy all night with the tram. Even ear plugs not enough to keep the loud rumble and loud people on the Main Street into the wee hours.

I have been a regular guest at Miss Sophie's Downtown in Prague for almost two years now. Indeed, it is the only hotel I ever stay at in that city, unless it is fully booked. So I was curious to see how the Olomouc branch compares with it Let me start by saying they are quite different. What they have in common is the very friendly and helpful staff. In Prague they are from many different nations and the lingua franca is English, whereas in Olomouc I had the impression that they were all Czechs, which was good for me as I am learning Czech and was able to practise speaking it with them at reception and breakfast. Needless to say they all speak excellent English for those who are not so mad as to try learning Czech. The room (no 2) was on the firsr floor and was perfectly acceptable, perhaps trying a little too hard to be "boutique" style. To be honest i prefer the rooms in Prague. The (walk-in) shower appeared to have been hewn out of rock in the wall but performed its function spendidly. The main problem (for me at least) was the noise from the trams passing by outside every few minutes (except for a few hours in the dead of night). Light sleepers be warned. Try and get a room on the other side. I appreciate that it might not be problem for most people, but I'm afraid I need absolute quiet at night. There is no lift (I knew about this beforehand), but one of the kind young ladies from reception carried my very heavy case up the stairs (I am 66 and have weak arms). I didn't catch her name but thank you whoever you are. It is probably neither feasible nor permissible to install a lift. Breakfast was OK but it is not a self-service, all-you-can-eat buffet like in Prague, So only 4 stars. I would definitely stay here again were I ever to return to Olomouc. The location is ideal, right in the centre and 5 minutes by tram from the railway station. But I would have to have a room away from the street.

I like to stay in interesting buildings when I travel and this was one of my very best experiences ever. A wonderful conversion with lots of very cool ideas, as well as being very comfortable. The hotel is combined with the cafe downstairs, so the staff there act as the reception. Everyone I spoke to was charming and very helpful. Breakfast in the cafe (included in the price) was really good. I do suggest reading the descriptions carefully - my lovely quirky attic room was up four flights of steep stairs and had skylights rather than a window - exactly as one might expect in an attic and not a problem for me, but obviously this wouldn't suit everyone.

It was very nice stay! Lovely building, room, coffee, back yard is amazing!!! And very nice staff here. Tasty breakfast in the warm morning in the garden... I can only recomend. Our room was in third floor and was very comfy and quiet. If you go to Olomouc, you have to stay here!

We stayed here overChristmas 2023. The second photo is our room. Room 1. Sleeps 5 very comfortably. My wife and I stayed in private quarters off of main room pictured. Our three young adult children stayed in main room. The staff was fantastic. Most spoke passable some good English. The Christmas Market is outstanding. (as was Prague and Salzburg). Much of the country closes down on Xmas eve and Xmas but the historic churches are open and it was fun to participate in the lantern walk with the locals. The hotel could not have been better. Great breakfast every morning. Good espresso, beer, mulled wine or grog.

Nice hotel rooms and a comfy beds. And waking up in bed was like heaven i loved the hotel the most. Bathroom was good and i was stunned to see there was a bedroom next door. But still a nice place to go i recommend going there its a nice place to be in.
