Good staff, good room, good food, good vibes
Sophie's people - smiling and helpful - provided a better service than I could expect from a hostel. Clean and comfy room & bed, with a large safe box under the bed. Clean and well maintained bathrooms. Such a nice cafe downstairs with a delicious breakfast.

We were 4 girls and we rent and apartment for ourselves and the place was beautiful, clean and modern. The best option
Clean, warm, kind staff, cafeteria 10/10, breakfast 10/10 quality-price, security 10/10
Not that close to the center but not a big deal :)

Comfortable and well-located
Spacious rooms, nicely clean bathrooms, and a great location, just a short walk to the center. Plus, having a bar there was a great touch
It would be nice to have body wash in the bathrooms. Hair dryers require a deposit, and I found it wasn’t as social as I expected

The ceiling was high, that's something makes me feel relaxed. Everything was clean when we turned back. The heating was more than enough. The staff were so nice to us. There are city maps in the reception desk and it's very useful.
Because the cards are magnetic, they break when they touch or are close to the phone. Even though we didn't put them in our phone case, the cards broke because they were close to our bag. It would be better if this problem was resolved.

5-bed female room
I stayed in a 5-bed female dorm. The location is very convenient — just about a 10-minute walk from the main attractions. The hostel has a bar where you can grab a beer in the evening, and breakfast is served there in the morning. The staff were very friendly — they checked me in quickly, told me about free walking tours, and gave great recommendations on where to eat. The room was very spacious, with a private kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen had dishes and a fridge, and there was also a hairdryer. Each bed had a small locker for personal items, but you need to bring your own padlock. You also need to have your own towel. Breakfast, slippers, or extra towels can be purchased at the reception. Overall, I had a very pleasant stay!

Convenient location, friendly staff, and everything you need for a comfortable budget stay :)
This was my third time staying here, and I would have gladly done so again. But I was told that I was too old for the hostel 😁 Still, thank you for everything.

Great hostel in a perfect location in Prague
Everything about this hostel is great. Room was spacious enough for 5girls. Bathroom outside the main bedroom and small kitchen included. Hairdryer available and plenty of shelving, plugs and hooks in the room. Cleanliness was always on point with all the staff ready to help and always friendly. Location is very well placed as not in the very centre amidst the noise but very close by. Metro station is just a stone throw away with groceries close by and restaurants/ main areas within a few minute walk. They also let you store the luggage after check out and reception is available all day long.
Nothing to complain about

The stay was short and sweet, barring the weird layout
Cozy and good amenities
We booked an apartment for 5 and the bathroom had a glass wall that faced the kitchen directly! This was quite uncomfortable and at least a curtain to cover the glass.

Good clean hostel
Nice pillow! Great lockers underneath the beds, generous bathroom facilities and luggage storage for the day after I checked out
Breakfast was weird, the hot pan food that they served you out of the pan at the table (which seems to be their niche) was cold and had obviously been sitting in there for a while Would have preferred if it was just cooked to order The staff were helpful and friendly but a bit gossipy

My stay in Prague was comfortable and excellent, my special thanks to Sophie's Hostel.
Sophie's Hostel is an exceptional Hostel with the standards and cleanliness of a Hotel. They pay a very good attention to maintaining and keeping the facilities clean. It has an optimum location, less than 5 mins walk to the public transportations such as the I.P. Pavlova Metro Station; and within 20-25 mins walk to the Old Town Square, Prague 1 and most other center of attractions. The bar and breakfast room is nice and very welcoming. The staffs are very helpful, competent and friendly. The Staffs and Manager paid attention to my needs and made my stay very relaxing and comfortable. In addition, I met interesting and wonderful people who also lodged there and it made it all beautiful and very much fun :). I very highly recommend it.
The most important things were catered for. However, I can only suggest that in the future when renovation is necessary, the iron beds could be renovated to a wooden bed. And if possible, the kitchen space could be enlarged. Nevertheless, Sophie's Hostel has done an amazing job!

The breakfast was affordable and of great quality, full buffet, and the lounge area is incredible. The bathrooms were SO clean, and as someone who's been traveling for awhile thats one of the most important things in my opinion.

When I arrived the staff were friendly and professional. Luckily the hostel is located in a small quiet street so I enjoyed peaceful sleeps. The rooms and bathrooms were spotless so I felt really comfortable. In the evening there was a nice social atmosphere in the cafe/common area to meet other travellers.
Can't really be helped but the floor in my room was really creaky so it's difficult to stay quiet in middle of the night.

very clean room and friendly staff a high level of hostel in my opinion
noisy other guests but that is to be expected at a hotel
1 September 2025
Super recomend
The female dorm was really comfortable, all the other 4 girl were sweet and repected each others space and routine. The room has a separate bathroom and kitchen so it was super comfortable. Over all, quiet and close to the main tourist spots and bigger grocery stores are about 10-18 min walk away.
The kitchen has everything you might need except the basics like oil, pepper/salt for cooking, so you might need to buy it.

Good value for price
Well located from the airport bus AE and the main train station. Quiet because of double windows
Only 2 showers for 8 people No shelfs in bathroom to put our stuff while washing us The ladder for the upper bed are not very practical neither the shelf and the individual plug for the phone to charge

Great place to stay
Very friendly and lovely staff. Beds were great. Showers and toilets are kept clean. Good location, you can take the tram downtown if you don’t feel like walking. Hostel was, during my stay, very lively. I would be ready to pay more for a night in this hostel than they already change you for. Great hostel.

All is great except that each dorm room has only one stand fan: a bit uncomfortable in summers.
The location is great. The breakfast buffet is also good.
More fans needed in the dorms during summer.
