Welcome: Elysee is as central as one could hope for, just a few steps from the National Museum, on Wenceslas Square. Security card keys allow access to an elevator that takes you from the busy, crowded street to your quiet, comfortable room.

Location: The entrance to Elysee is in a covered passageway with shops and restaurants. The passageway leads directly onto historic Wenceslas Square, which is the biggest concentration of shops, restaurants, and casinos. Transportation to and from anywhere is easy and there's lots of it.

Rooms: The rooms are bright, clean and comfortable, furnished in a becoming way. All the rooms have bathrooms and satellite TV.

Restaurants: A cold and warm buffet breakfast is included, but there is no restaurant. Wenceslas Square has plenty of options, from fast food stands on every corner to some of the most elegant dining in the country.

Services: 24-hour reception provides all one would expect from a good 3 star hotel and can arrange airport pickup/dropoff.
