Don't confuse this tiny hotel/café with the Old Town restaurant by the same name - they are two entirely different places. This one is at the end of the ancient winding Novy Svet lane near the Prague castle, and is enchanting. (Be warned, though - the only way out is UP!)
You ring a bell to enter - this is to discourage the looky-loos who just want to explore, ask questions and use the toilets. The one- or two-person staff just doesn't have time.
The café is delightful - delicious food cooked by the manager/chef, lovely ambience, including a fire in cold weather, and an outdoor area in the summer. Recently restored, the place is full of old bric a brac, including a stone plaque of a lobster, which makes sense when you know the name means "At the Crayfish." I had a delicious quiche and apple studel - yum!
We only visited the café, and peeked at a room, which was lovely. Definitely romantic! read more
