A great place for a photo along the harbour. We were lucky to catch it at dusk, when it’s still bright enough for a photo, but you can also see all the colours. When we were there it was cycling through the rainbow.

Had an absolutely lovely afternoon tea in the dining room. We had made an advanced reservation and were seated right away. The conservatory is beautiful and the service was fantastic. The server walked us through each item on the tray. The starter triffle was unexpected and delicious. The entire experience was relaxing and delicious. We are so glad we went and would definitely return.

Had a delicious signature high tea here today. Made a reservation online, and they were ready and welcoming when we arrived. They took the time to walk us through their tea menu and each item on the high tea platter. The restaurant was cleaning and the staff kind and welcoming and helpful. All the food was delightful. Very glad we came and would definitely return.

Drove over an hour to get here to try the Japanese souflee pancakes (which I had fallen in love with in Japan). Pancakes were okay, but not what I was hoping for. My lemonade was so sour I couldn’t finish it. It allows you to make reservations online, but there are only about 15 seats inside, some of which require you to crawl over an old radiator to access. We saw others walk in and try to sit down only to be kicked off the table because they aren’t really managing their combined reservations/walk-in coffee shop combo very well. We had a party of 3, one of with mobility issues. We were told there was no public washroom (in a restaurant? I’m pretty confident that’s not even allowed), and so we were forced to have to urgently rush a member of our party across the street to the shoppers drug mart to find a washroom, causing 2/3 of us to have cold breakfast. All in all, wouldn’t come here again. On the plus side, employees were trying their best to make due and provide quality service. However it was confusing where they were serving and where we were suppose to help ourselves (for example: they took our order at the table, but when we asked for milk for coffee they pointed to a stand in the corner so we could do get it ourselves). In need of more space and a clearer identity.

We visited the Jewish Cemetery independent of a guide as part of our self-guided tour of the Jewish Quarter in Prague. While we preferred the freedom of not having a guide, we were a little sad we didn't have one, as we wanted to learn more during our visit to the cemetery. The Cemetery is beautiful and moving, and a must-see site. However, there is no brochure or signs or anything to help give history of context as you are moving through. So either bring a guide or bring a guidebook, if that matters to you. That being said - a very worthy and beautiful place to visit. So quiet and serene (except the occasional less-than-respectful tour group). Note: entrance is included as part of the "Jewish Museum" ticket - you cannot pay to enter just this site. It is 500 czk for entrance to all the sites.
