Why we recommend it

Mandarin Oriental, Prague occupies a historic former monastery on Nebovidská, a quiet lane in the southern part of the Lesser Town. It is one of the most peaceful luxury hotels in the city, tucked away from the busiest streets yet within walking distance of Charles Bridge, Kampa Island and Prague Castle. The hotel is rated five stars and is part of the Mandarin Oriental group, known for its high standards of service.

The monastery setting shapes the experience. The historic building gives the hotel a calm, enclosed feel, and the design blends the historic architecture with contemporary interiors. Rooms vary in size and layout because of the building's history, and suites offer more space for longer stays.

The spa is one of the hotel's best-known features, offering treatments in a tranquil setting that fits the monastic surroundings. Monastiq Restaurant serves contemporary Czech dishes, giving guests an elegant introduction to the national cuisine without leaving the hotel, and Monastiq Bar and Lounge is a quiet place for a drink in the evening. The staff can arrange guided tours, transfers and restaurant reservations across the city.

The hotel suits couples, honeymooners and travellers who value quiet and privacy over being in the middle of the action. Because the hotel is on a narrow lane in the Lesser Town, let the reception team know your arrival time if you are coming by taxi with heavy luggage, and allow a little extra time when leaving for the airport. It is also a good base for exploring the Lesser Town on foot: the Church of Our Lady Victorious, with the Infant of Prague, is around the corner, Kampa and the Lennon Wall are a few minutes away, and Charles Bridge can be reached in under ten minutes. Several good restaurants, including U Modré kachničky, are on the same street.

The Hellichova tram stop on Újezd is about three minutes away, with trams across the river to the National Theatre and the New Town. Malostranská metro station on line A is a longer walk. The hotel says that Václav Havel Airport is about 25 to 30 minutes away by taxi or private transfer, depending on traffic.
