Best 7 Pet-Friendly Hotels in Prague

Seven Prague hotels that say they take pets, with notes on where to walk a dog nearby and what to ask before you book.

Prague is an easy city to visit with a dog. You will see dogs on trams, under café tables and in plenty of pubs, and there are big green spaces within reach of the centre, from Petřín and Kampa in Malá Strana to Letná and Stromovka across the river. The hard part is the hotel: “pet-friendly” can mean anything from a water bowl at reception to a small-dogs-only rule with a nightly fee.

Every hotel below is one we have written about in detail on Prague Hints, and we only included places whose own details or current listings say pets are allowed. They range from small four-stars by the Castle to big international names. We mention parks only where one is genuinely close. Fees and size limits change, so confirm them when you book.

1. Hotel U Raka

Černínská 10 · Hradčany · four-star

Hotel U Raka (also listed as Romantik Hotel U Raka) is about as romantic as Prague hotels get: a four-star in a listed historic building a few minutes from Prague Castle, where each room’s distinctive interior comes with modern comforts. There is an open fireplace in winter, garden terraces in summer, a Snack Café for coffee or Czech wine, and a small gallery of paintings by the owner’s wife and sculptures by his eldest daughter.

Its pet policy is a plain yes, and the garden makes it far easier with a dog than a city-centre block. The quiet lanes of Hradčany are lovely early in the morning, and the green slopes around Strahov and Petřín are within walking distance.

2. Hotel Kinsky Garden

Holečkova 7 · Smíchov · four-star

The name gives it away: Hotel Kinsky Garden sits beside Kinsky Garden, the landscaped park that climbs the southern side of Petřín hill. It is a four-star with 62 rooms (one adapted for guests with disabilities), a lobby bar, a lounge and a meeting room, within walking distance of Malá Strana and Charles Bridge.

Pets are allowed, and with the park next door this is the best-placed hotel on the list for a dog that needs a proper walk morning and evening. You may see it listed simply as Kinsky Garden, or under its former Best Western Premier name. Smíchov’s quieter pavements also suit a nervous dog.

3. Pytloun Kampa Garden Hotel Prague

U Sovových mlýnů 9 · Malá Strana · four-star

Pytloun Kampa Garden Hotel Prague is on Kampa, the river island tucked against Malá Strana, a short walk from Charles Bridge, the Lennon Wall and St Nicholas Church. Its pet policy is clear: pets are allowed.

For dog owners the location is the point: Kampa Park is right outside, and Petřín is a pleasant walk away. Current listings quote a pet charge of 530 CZK per night, so budget for it and confirm the amount and any size limit when you book. Malá Strana’s cobbles and steps are hard work for older dogs, so plan short loops.

4. Hotel Troja

Trojská 2232 · Libeň, Prague 8 · four-star

Hotel Troja is the out-of-centre pick, and with a dog that is a plus. It is a 22-room four-star in a calm residential area, about 15 minutes’ walk from Prague Zoo, the Baroque Troja Chateau and the Prague Botanical Garden. On site there is Café Troja and Restaurant Troja, a lounge, a winter garden and a garage.

Pets are allowed. Don’t count on taking a dog into the zoo or the botanical garden, but the Vltava riverside paths are close, and Stromovka, one of Prague’s largest parks, lies across the river from Troja. The centre is a public transport ride away, so this suits drivers or anyone who prefers quiet evenings.

5. Ambassador – Zlatá husa

Václavské náměstí 840/5 · New Town

Right on Wenceslas Square, Ambassador – Zlatá husa is an Art Nouveau classic with period furniture and, in many rooms, marble bathrooms with hydromassage baths. The Thai & Wellness Club handles massages and treatments, and the lobby bar’s summer terrace looks straight onto the square.

The hotel describes itself as family- and pet-friendly. Walks here are on busy pavements rather than grass, so it suits a calm, city-used dog best; go out early before the crowds. Use the garage if you are driving, and confirm the pet fee in advance.

6. The Emblem Hotel

Platnéřská 19 · Old Town · five-star

The Emblem Hotel is a five-star lifestyle hotel a few steps from Old Town Square, with 59 rooms, a restaurant, a lobby bar and four “living spaces” for working, lounging and meeting people. It has a strong design focus and a spa, which listings place on the top floor.

The Emblem says outright that pets are welcome, and it is also family- and LGBT-friendly. For a dog walk, the riverside is about five minutes away on foot. Ask about the pet fee when you book, and check whether dogs can join you in the restaurant and living spaces.

7. Hilton Prague Old Town

V Celnici 7 · New Town

Despite the name, Hilton Prague Old Town is just over the line in the New Town, steps from the Powder Tower and a short walk from Old Town Square. The building is Art Deco-inspired, the Zinc Restaurant, Lounge & Bar mixes Czech and international cooking, and the fitness centre comes with a swimming pool and sauna.

The hotel is family- and pet-friendly and its facilities are fully accessible, useful if anyone in your party struggles with Prague’s cobbles and steps. Ask about the nightly pet fee and any size limit before you arrive; Náměstí Republiky metro nearby makes the rest of the city easy to reach.

Practical tips

Add the pet to the booking. Most hotels accept animals only on request, and some limit the number or size. Put the pet on the reservation and get the confirmation in writing.
Bring the paperwork. Dogs and cats travelling from another EU country generally need a microchip, a valid rabies vaccination and an EU pet passport. Rules from outside the EU differ, so check before you travel.
Know where dogs can go. Petřín, Kampa, Letná and Stromovka are popular with dog owners, but some formal gardens and the zoo do not admit dogs. Look for the sign at the gate.
Ask before you sit down. Many Czech pubs and cafés are relaxed about dogs, but not all, so check at the door.

Frequently asked questions

Are dogs allowed in Prague hotels?

Many hotels take them, but there is no single rule. Every hotel here says pets are allowed, yet each sets its own conditions, so declare your pet when you book.

How much do Prague hotels charge for pets?

It varies by hotel and sometimes by the size of the animal. As one example, current listings for Pytloun Kampa Garden quote 530 CZK per night. Ask for the fee before you book rather than at check-in.

Are there size or weight limits?

Some hotels only take small pets or limit the number per room. Our guides do not list weight limits for these hotels, so ask directly, especially with a large breed.

Which area of Prague is best with a dog?

For green space on the doorstep, Smíchov by Kinsky Garden and Kampa in Malá Strana are hard to beat, and Hradčany is within walking distance of Petřín. Troja is the quietest option. Old Town and Wenceslas Square hotels are central, but walks there are mostly on pavements.

Can I take my dog on public transport in Prague?

Generally yes. Small pets can travel in a closed carrier, and larger dogs usually need a lead and a muzzle on trams, buses and the metro. Check the current Prague Integrated Transport (PID) rules for tickets before you travel.
