The hostel is lauded for its modern, soundproof capsule design, which ensures privacy and a comfortable sleeping environment with spacious bedding suitable even for taller individuals.

Guest Reviews
Capsule Hostel Žižkov Tower is set in a somewhat mixed area of Prague, offering both advantages and drawbacks. While some guests describe the building as run-down and located in a strange corner of the city, others appreciate the convenience that the location offers. Situated not too far from the city center, the hostel provides good public transport options with a tram stop right outside, making it relatively easy to navigate around Prague.
Guests also note the abundance of food options, parks and shops within walking distance, which adds to the overall convenience. The location is praised for its quiet and peaceful environment, despite being fairly distant from the main town attractions. Event attendees particularly find the distance to the venue Kalin favorable.
Guests appreciate the combination of a good price, cleanliness and practical facilities like soundproof capsules. The automatic check-in process is also highlighted as a positive aspect, simplifying the arrival experience. While the surrounding area might not be the most picturesque part of Prague, it provides essential amenities and good connectivity to the city's more vibrant areas.
Nestled in the heart of Žižkov, the Capsule Hostel Žižkov Tower offers a unique and innovative experience for travelers. Though it prides itself on affordability and easy access to the city center, this modern facility presents a mixed bag when it comes to its accommodations.
Those looking for privacy will appreciate the capsule design, which provides a more secluded sleeping environment compared to traditional hostels. Comfortable and clean bedding ensures a pleasant rest with considerable space even for taller guests. The lock system within the capsules also adds a layer of security that is often lacking in many shared dormitories. The silence within these small pods can be quite comforting, providing an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.
However, the experience is not without its challenges. The capsules, located in the building’s basement, suffer from significant ventilation issues. Despite some ventilation in place, the lack of effective air conditioning means that the capsules can become unbearably hot, especially during summer. Many guests have reported difficulties with sleeping due to the heat and poor air circulation with some pods becoming veritable hotboxes. The tiny fans provided are often noisy and insufficient for cooling the space efficiently.
Cleanliness is another point of contention. The rooms and capsule beds are generally clean upon arrival, but maintenance seems inconsistent. Instances of uncleaned shower and toilet facilities and reports of bugs and leftover food under mattresses detract from the overall experience. These issues might make the stay less enjoyable for those who value cleanliness highly.
In summary, Capsule Hostel Žižkov Tower offers a budget-friendly and private lodging option with good access to local amenities and the city center. It is particularly suited for short stays. However, its poorly ventilated and often unbearably hot environment, coupled with inconsistent cleanliness, pose significant drawbacks that potential guests should consider.

Many guests found the beds to be comfortable, praising the pillows, blankets and mattresses specifically for their comfort.

A number of reviews also commended the hostel for providing a good amount of personal space within the capsules, making it suitable for short stays. The overall capsule system was described as helpful and well-organized, ensuring guests could enjoy a quiet and safe night's sleep.
However, not all feedback was glowing. Some guests experienced issues with the mattresses, describing them as losing their firmness or not being flat. There were also occasional mentions of finding hairs on the bed and some visitors found the capsules smaller and hotter than anticipated.
Despite these occasional drawbacks, the majority of guests were able to sleep well and found the beds comfortable, contributing to a generally positive stay at Capsule Hostel Žižkov Tower.
