Why we recommend it
Four Seasons Hotel Prague sits on the Old Town bank of the Vltava, a few steps from Charles Bridge, and has some of the best views of any hotel in the city. Across the water rise the Lesser Town and Prague Castle, which fill the windows of the river-facing rooms. The hotel unites four buildings, the oldest dating back to 1568, and the hotel describes itself as standing at the crossroads of Baroque, Neoclassical, Renaissance and modern architecture. It is rated five stars and carries a Forbes five-star award.
Rooms and suites are spread across the different buildings, so their character varies, from classically styled rooms in the historic wings to more contemporary spaces. Rooms facing the river and the castle are the most sought after and are worth asking for, while the top suites, including the River Suite, the Charles Bridge Presidential Suite and the Royal Suite, look out over the bridge itself. Service is polished and discreet, as expected from the brand, and the concierge team can arrange tickets, tours and restaurant bookings across the city.
The AVA Spa offers natural thermal water therapies and has a private vitality pool overlooking Prague Castle, which is an unusual luxury in the city centre. CottoCrudo, the hotel's riverside Italian restaurant, serves dishes designed for sharing, and the riverside location makes it a memorable place for dinner even if you are staying elsewhere.
The hotel suits couples on a special trip, honeymooners and travellers who want to be able to walk to the main sights while sleeping somewhere calm. The location is ideal for sightseeing: Charles Bridge is around the corner, Old Town Square is about five minutes on foot, and the Jewish Quarter and the Rudolfinum concert hall are close by.
Book directly or through the brand's website for the best choice of rooms, and request a river view at the time of booking. In the busy summer months and around Christmas, the best rooms are reserved well in advance. The nearest metro station is Staroměstská on line A, about two minutes away, and trams stop on the embankment. Václav Havel Airport is around 30 minutes away by car, depending on traffic.
