Hotel Slovan — Hotel in okres Plzeň-město

This hotel is an absolute classic, possibly even a cult classic, like a film set from 1960s Czechoslovakia as others have mentioned. It’s a great experience and also offers top service and some modern conveniences, and is very cleanly and relatively affordable. Breakfast was great (in spite of other reviews) and the lunch menu is a bargain (about 120 ck), though fairly basic. ||||It really is a gem, though only for those who are nostalgic or people into Wes Anderson/The Shining/Twin Peaked. I would highly recommend it for an iron curtain experience overlayed on an extremely grand 19th century hotel. I really hope this place never changes down to the manager/owner eating breakfast in his underwear and shouting on his mobile. Will definitely stay here again and would recommend others do unless you’re a snob/can’t handle a bit of history. Long live Hotel Slovan, never may it...

I could see how this hotel receives negative reviews but I think it has mainly been from people who are expecting a sleek modern hotel.

This is a completely retro experience stepping into history. The building itself is beautiful and the rooms are what you would expect from a Communist-era hotel (large doors, grand staircase, shared bathroom and showers).

The location is perfect and situated on a lovely park near the central square and many shops. Very easy to get around on foot or by the nearby tram.

The breakfast was good and overnight parking was for a fair price ($6).

For women travelers (I was traveling with three women, but I am a man) the hotel is dark at night in some hallways and the bathroom is shared, but there is always someone working whether it’s the receptionist or the night watchman. There may be an option for a private bathroom in more...
