About

Hotel William

Hotel William sits in Prague 1, the city's historic core, placing most of medieval Prague within a 20-minute walk. Old Town Square is about 20 minutes on foot, and Charles Bridge is roughly 10 minutes away, according to guests. The area is lively, with a tower and a theatre directly across.
