About

Hostel Bell

Hostel Bell is a 3-star property with just 7 rooms, set in a quiet neighborhood steps from Mustek metro and a 5-minute walk from Vaclavske namEsti. It keeps things simple: free Wi-Fi in rooms, a shared kitchen, laundry, and luggage storage. The vibe is low-key and personal, helped by a host that guests repeatedly single out for being kind and helpful.

Rooms are basic but clean, with parquet floors and curtains, and range from twins with shared bathrooms to quadruples. There's no elevator, no pets, and no smoking on site. Breakfast isn't mentioned by the property, but the shared kitchen lets you make your own meals, and the location puts you close to restaurants and a supermarket.

  • No smoking on site
  • VIP check-in/ -out
  • No pets allowed

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

5 reasons to book
  • Central yet quiet location — A 5-minute walk from Wenceslas Square and right by Mustek metro, yet guests note the neighborhood stays peaceful.
  • Host guests remember — Petr is named repeatedly for helpful tips, bag-carrying, and friendly, attentive service.
  • Clean, tidy rooms — Guests describe rooms as spotless, comfortable, and quiet despite basic furnishings.
  • Free Wi-Fi in rooms — Unlike hostels that limit Wi-Fi to common areas, Bell offers it in the rooms at no extra cost.
  • Shared kitchen to self-cater — A well-equipped kitchen lets guests make coffee and meals, helping to cut food costs.

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Rooms score lowest — Guests rate the rooms 6.5/10, and descriptions mention 'basic' furnishings and shared bathrooms in most room types.
  • Value rating is a weak point — At 6.2/10, value is the lowest category, even though guests often praise affordability — possibly a matter of expectations.
  • Service could be more consistent — Scored 6.4/10, service is the second-lowest rating, though written reviews mostly praise the staff.
  • No pets, no smoking — Pets are not allowed, and the property enforces a strict no-smoking policy on site.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in runs from 13:00 to 22:00 only, so late arrivals could be a problem.
