Hotel U Pramenu — Hotel in okres Plzeň-město

This is in a pleasant leafy suburb of Plzen but easily accessible by car, and also apparently by bus and walking from the town centre.

Staff were pleasant and had some English.|Our en suite room was attractive and modern looking with access to a terrace running round 3 sides of the property ie shared and thus not private nor secure. The wide double bed was comfortable. Good storage space, but the small room safe was on the wardrobe floor at the back - not really easy to reach and use.|The bathroom was a reasonable size, the shower good, if small and a bit slippery - but had a good grab rail.|The wifi was extremely slow, and which was especially unfortunate as the only TV programmes were all in Czech. |BUT amazingly the only electric sockets were at the bottom of the headboard sides and set on sideways, plus on the bottom of the wall beyond the wide desk cum dressing table area, i.e. not easily reached by anyone and near impossible for older or disabled guests. So charging our electronic devices was a bit of a challenge!|The a/c did not work at well the first and hot night but worked well the next night after the handyman had...
