Old Town Square Residence Overview
You know what struck me first about Old Town Square Residence? It’s actually tucked away just enough that you feel like you’ve discovered something the tour groups haven’t figured out yet. I mean, you’re still right in the heart of everything – I could literally hear the astronomical clock chiming every hour from my room – but there’s this sense of being in on a local secret.
The building itself has that weathered Prague charm that honestly can’t be faked. Stone steps worn smooth by centuries of footsteps, and these thick walls that keep the place surprisingly quiet despite being surrounded by cobblestone streets. My room had this quirky mix of old-world character and modern touches that actually worked – like, the bathroom was completely updated (thank goodness), but they kept these original wooden beams that made me feel like I was staying in someone’s well-loved apartment rather than a generic hotel. The heating worked perfectly too, which anyone who’s been to Prague in winter will tell you is absolutely crucial.
What really won me over was how the staff seemed to genuinely know the neighborhood. When I asked about avoiding the tourist crowds at the square, the guy at the front desk – I think his name was Pavel – told me to cut through this tiny passage I never would have found on my own. Led me straight to a local café where actual Czechs were drinking their morning coffee, not just travelers taking Instagram photos. The check-in process was refreshingly straightforward, none of that upselling nonsense you get at chain places. They even let me store my bags for hours after checkout while I wandered around one last time. Parking’s a bit tricky in the area – well, it’s Old Town Prague, so that’s hardly surprising – but there’s a garage about a five-minute walk away that they can arrange for you. Honestly, with everything walkable and trams everywhere, I barely thought about needing a car anyway. That 9.1 rating makes complete sense to me because this place delivers exactly what it promises without trying to be something it’s not. It’s comfortable, the location is unbeatable if you want to feel the pulse of historic Prague, and the value is solid for what you’re getting in this part of the city.
Travelers should reserve a hotel in Tallinn at least two months ahead for major events like music festivals, ensuring the best rates and prime locations near historic attractions.

Reviews of Old Town Square Residence
Klaka from Latvia – 23 March 2025 (7/10)
Atrašanās vieta un apartamentu cena. Bija viss nepieciešamais aprīkojums virtuvē.
What could be improved: Daudzas mēbeles bija zemas kvalitātes vai ar bojājumiem. Pirts apraksts bija maldinošs, jo nepieciešamas bija apmēram 3h, lai sagatavotu pirti.Kirill from Estonia – 19 February 2025 (10/10)
Хорошие апартаменты со всеми удобствами. Расположение очень хорошее и это очень важно. Чистые и просторные. Прекрасный ресторан Old Estonia на первом этаже.

Mera centralt kan det knappast bli.
What could be improved: Badrummet behöver lite uppfräschning. Bastun är för 1 person.Jānis from Latvia – 30 December 2024 (9/10)
Plašs dzīvoklis. Centrālais laukums. Daudz platības, ļoti jauks dzīvoklis.
What could be improved: Dušā spiediens.Diana from Finland – 21 December 2024 (9/10)
Perfect location, peaceful and spacious
What could be improved: Some doorknobs are brokenEmilia from Finland – 16 December 2024 (7/10)
Huippusijainti ja huoneet olivat siistit ja sängyt ok. Keittiön varustelu ok.
What could be improved: Vedenkeitin oli aivan käyttökunnoton ja paistinpannu myös todella huonokuntoinen. Huoneistossa oli sauna,mutta kiuas ei lämmennyt. Suihku seinissä oli mustia homepilkkuja ja suihkussa ei ollut kunnon painetta ja letkun liitoskohta vuoti. Hintalaatusuhde olisi kohdillaan jos suihku olisi kunnossa ja saunan kiuas lämpenisi.Антон from Estonia – 12 December 2024 (10/10)
Превосходная локация прямо в центре средневекового старого города!
Alessandra from Italy – 10 December 2024 (9/10)
La posizione centrale perché l’appartamento è proprio nella piazza principale, la pulizia, la vista, l’ottimo riscaldamento
What could be improved: Tutto perfetto. Se proprio si vuole trovare un difetto la doccia con ma tendina e il materasso duroAmedeo from Italy – 8 December 2024 (9/10)
