King George's House, or Dum "U krale Jiriho," is situated in a mint green 14th-century building on Liliova Street in Staré Mesto. The location is fabulous for the eager sightseer: Charles Bridge is a just down the street, and it's a quick walk to Namesti Staré Mesto.
The King George has a dozen simple rooms tucked away into two buildings, one in back of the other. There's a pub that sits in the hotel's courtyard, as well as another that sits on the first floor of the same building. Depending on your personal outlook, this could be either a dream come true or a reason to jump off the Charles Bridge ... We spent a week at King George's House and only woke up once because of disturbances. Others have sent us complaints stating that the noise level was "unacceptable." So be aware: King George is in the middle of pub-land. Plan accordingly.
Rooms are furnished in a basic Bohemian style with dark wood bed frames. All have private bathrooms. More adventurous types should ask for Room 10 or Room 11. If you can handle the hike up to the fifth floor, you will be rewarded with dramatic wooden beams reaching down over the beds and very cool views.
The restaurant has an extensive menu of Czech dishes. As this place has a few guidebook listings under its belt, we suggest booking in advance.
