Grand Hotel Litava — Hotel in okres Beroun

Stayed 6 nights on holiday ||||Large hotel in Beroun just outside the city walls, 10 minutes walk to the train station which takes you to Prague Main station (Praha hln) in 40 minutes-1 hour. ||||Was very pleased with the room size and height, but our room was located towards rather tall buildings for Beroun and a Road in the middle which caused that the traffic noise bounced off the buildings making it quite noisy in the room with open window.||||The room had a slim shape with few Windows and only one of Them could open. It was very hot in the room even though the temperatures had cooled off, so we Daily had to make the choice between a hot(ter) room or noise from open Windows that bordhered us in our sleep. ||||If you want to stay at this hotel make sure to ask for a room toward the other side, the city walls! And if you come to Beroun in the summer you Might want to heavily consider getting a hotel with aircondition! Temperatures Can easily be 35 degrees celsius.||||Breakfast was okay but nothing out of the ordinary for a 4 star hotel. Good selection of local cakes/crossaints but only hot milk? The juices were diluted and I really did not like the Apple and orange juice. Juice seemed expensive in Czech so thats probably why they could not serve fresh juice. ||||One of our bedlight switches did not work upon arrival, this was fixed between 48 and 72 hours into our stay, which seemes quite late. ||||The shower was in a bathtub, so you had to stand up in the bathtub if you wished to take a standing shower. Not very handicapped or elderly friendly! We were given out a mat upon wish, as I was afraid my Old man would trip. The mat however was not with suction cups, so it was not much of a help. ||||As for the hotel otherwise the stay was very cheap, the staff was friendly and apart from the noise from the outside the hotel was quiet and the wifi worked very well in our third floor room. ||||If you choose this hotel make sure to ask for a room towards the city walls, but you Might consider staying at a smaller hotel inside the city walls which has more charm...

Ok where to start… We travel with 2 kids and for our needs we need one king size bed or at least is it is single bed opportunity to move it together. While booking I selected option for 1 room with king size bed and another for 2 single beds. After reservation I got email that only rooms with 2 single beds available ok… Once we arrived to hotel we figured out that you cannot really merge beds because they are fitted into furniture. And here all fun starts.. I came to reception and asked for help, I got answer that they are fully booked and cannot help me. Lady tried to call supervisor but no luck - basically saying hotel claimed they cannot help and it’s not their problem. I understand situation like this can happen and we were fine with any help to solve it but - No one did anything to solve this situation they don’t care. No even attempt to improve your stay experience. I’m sure where is multiple ways how this situation can be solved and in normal hotel personal will do everything to help family with kids feel nice. Ok we needed to improvise and move furniture around but experience is unpleased.

Shower was not working in one of rooms.. I was not even trying report it as it was clear which answer I will get.

No air conditioning in 4* hotel is another fun point… in 30 degrees Celsius this was wet night…

No power socket close to bed.. imo is hotel standard.

Bathroom not very clean as well.

Breakfast nothing special but ok pretty standard. Restaurant in hotel is only bright spot. Personal was good and food decent.

I would suggest to avoid it as where is multiple nicer...

LowLights: • Not really a hotel from my point of view for a 4-STAR rating.(Comparing with other 4-Star offerings like Sheraton and similar). • No Gyms or pools available. (Gym was there, but was closed) • Same breakfast option each day. No changes in items :) :) • The toiletries provided were too basic (just Linen, Hand wash...
